This included work order processing, preventive maintenance, spare parts information, and equipment repair history. The software application was installed on the District's A/S 400 mini - computer and utilizes the same network as does HTE. • The Solids Control Room MMI, DP 6114, added two operator control stations to the furnace control room and all other functions available in the POD control room so that the shift supervisor could freely operate from either site. • The Safety Improvements project, DP 6132, installed elevated work access platforms in the Solids Conditioning Building. This project improved the safe access and working area for maintenance of the Medusa Valve, the Ash unloading facility, and the Ash house vacuum filters by installing galvanized steel platforms. • The Standby Power Facility Hardening project, DP 6138 executed the installation of facility improvements that were identified subsequent to the catastrophic failure of number 1 Engine in December, 1998. The improvements include upgraded controls, additional cooling and installation of hard piping in lieu of hoses. • The 2400 -Volt Feeder Replacement project, DP 6154, furnished and installed a replacement 2,400 -volt feeder from Substation to MCC 42A. MCC 42A provides power and control for the Number 1 Applied Water Pump. The original feeder failed and could not be repaired. COLLECTION SYSTEM PROGRAM • The Collection System Renovation project, DP 5421, included renovation to segments of sewer main at various location's throughout the District. The work involved spot repairs, short line segment replacement, manholes and rodding inlet installations. In addition, a portion of the budget was allocated to handle emergency work and critical new work, which arose during the year. Renovations were completed at a total of 14 sites throughout the District. • The Rossmoor Sewer Improvements - Phase 6 project, DP 5423, was part of an agreement to take over maintenance of private sewer mains within the Rossmoor community. The Phase 6 project work consisted of main replacement, spot repairs on existing mains, manholes, and rodding inlet installation. 2/13/02 U: \PPR \Bertera \JJMCLOSEOUTOF1 1 CIPSREV2.WPD Page 4 of 5 ATTACHMENT 2 (cont) • The Hartz Avenue Slide project, DP 5451, involved relocating 120 feet of 30 -inch trunk sewer, 60 feet of which was bored and jacked under an existing building. The old 30 -inch trunk line, which ran along the bank of the San Ramon Creek, had considerable settlement caused by past winter rains. A geotechnical report indicated that further deterioration of the creek bank could potentially result in failure of the trunk line. In addition to relocating the trunk line, a 90 foot sub -grade pier retaining wall was constructed to protect the new sewer and existing structures. • The San Ramon Pump Station Landscaping project, DP 6128, installed interim landscape and security improvements to address neighborhood concerns. Permanent improvements will be completed as part of the San Ramon Pump Station Improvements project, DP 5460. GENERAL IMPROVEMENTS PROGRAM • The Communication Upgrade -4737 Imhoff project, DP 8188, installed fiberoptic network cabling from the District's equipment installed in the Household Hazardous Waste Collection Facility to the District's light industrial building at 4737 Imhoff Place to provide for high speed data transmission. This project provided a reliable fast and expandable communication link from the District's main telephone room, MIS network servers, and the Records Management Program main computer to the District's Records Center and Source Control facilities located at 4737 Imhoff Place. 2/13/02 U: \PPR \Bertera \JJMCLOSEOUTOFI 1 CIPSREV2.WPD Page 5 of 5 Central Contra Costa Sanitary District ' BOARD OF DIRECTORS POSITION PAPER Board Meeting Date: February 21, 2002 No.: 4. b. CONSENT CALENDAR Type of Action: INFORMATIONAL subject: ADVISE THE BOARD OF THE CLOSE OUT OF THE LAFAYETTE SEWER RENOVATIONS PROJECT, PHASE 1 (D.P. 5465) Submitted By: Initiating Dept ✓Div.: Alex Rozul Engineering /Capital Projects REVIEWED AND RECOMMENDED FOR BOARD ACTION. «g m6 - - A. Rozul ilecki W. Brennan A. arrell Char es . tts, General Manage ISSUE: All work has been completed on Lafayette Sewer Renovation Project (D.P. 5465) and this project can now be closed out. RECOMMENDATION: Close out the project FINANCIAL IMPACTS: This close out will result in $235,291 being returned to the Collection System Program. Attachment 1 shows the project expenditures by category. BACKGROUND: The Lafayette Sewer Renovation Project Phase 1, DP 5465, consisted of replacing approximately 5,200 feet of deteriorating sewers within residential streets. The sewer construction was coordinated with a City of Lafayette street renovation project within the same area and staff negotiated with the City a cost sharing agreement for pavement restoration. A similar cost sharing agreement was negotiated with the Mountain View Road Owners Association. The coordination of work and cost sharing agreements minimized the overall construction impacts to residents and reduced the total pavement restoration costs for both agencies. The contractor, McNamara and Smallman, Inc., commenced work on May 15, 2000. All contract work was completed and accepted by the Board on October 5, 2000. The original construction contract amount was $642, 944. One construction change order was issued to rehabilitate six (6) manholes in lieu of replacement for the amount of $6,000. Final adjustments in bid item quantities reduced the total contract value by $37,662. The resulting total amount paid to McNamara and Smallman was $611,282. Under the two pavement restoration cost sharing agreements the District compensated the City $80,000 and the Mountain View Road Owners association $20,000. 2/13/02 Page 1 of 3 POSITION PAPER Board Meeting Date: February 21, 2002 subject: ADVISE THE BOARD OF THE CLOSE OUT OF THE LAFAYETTE SEWER RENOVATIONS PROJECT, PHASE 1 (D.P. 5465) The total authorized budget for the project was $ 1,104,000, which included a contingency of $129,056. Throughout the project, the contractor worked with staff to solve construction problems. Potential problems with utility conflicts were identified early and alignment adjustments made during construction. The contractor was sensitive to residents' construction issues and responsive to all District requests. As a result of the contractor's cooperativeness, the project was completed early and under budget. The total project cost was $868,709, which is approximately 21 percent less than the budgeted amount. The project close out will result in $235,291 being returned to the Collection System Program.

Submitted By: John C. Pearl Initiating Dept. /Div.: Operations /Collection System Operations REVIEWED AND RECOMMENDED FOR BOARD ACTION: -JC P 11_4 K 1,1 J. Pearl J. Kelly Charles W. Batt General Mana r ISSUE: Board approval is required for travel outside the State of California and for training over $1,000 if not specifically approved in the annual budget. RECOMMENDATION: Approve the attendance of Field Operations Superintendent Don Rhoads and Vehicle and Equipment Maintenance Supervisor Richard Boylan at the Vehicle Maintenance Management Conference and pre- conference workshops sponsored by and held at the University of Washington in Seattle, Washington, from Friday, March 22, through Thursday, March 28, 2002. FINANCIAL IMPACTS: Registration for the conference and workshops is $2,130. The estimated total cost is $4,200. Funds are available in the Collection System Operations Division 2001/2002 account for Technical Training, Conferences and Meetings. ALTERNATIVES /CONSIDERATIONS: Attend fewer pre- conference workshops, send fewer personnel or send no one. BACKGROUND: The District has a substantial investment in its vehicle and equipment fleet and in the maintenance shop which supports it. The estimated replacement value of the fleet is $3.5 million. The conference and workshops provide valuable training on subjects such as vehicle fleet management (which focuses on life cycle costing, specification development and strategies for improving the management of these assets) and effective shop management (including work scheduling, productivity control, use of new vs. rebuilt parts, budget preparation and other topics). The District has more than 90 vehicles and many pieces of construction equipment that are serviced by the Vehicle and Equipment Maintenance Shop and managed by Field 2/14/02 CSO /C: \WINDOWS \TEMP \fleetrng.wpd Page 1 of 2 POSITION PAPER Board Meeting Date: February 21, 2002 subject: ATTENDANCE AT VEHICLE MAINTENANCE MANAGEMENT CONFERENCE AND FLEET MANAGEMENT WORKSHOPS BY FIELD OPERATIONS SUPERINTENDENT DON RHOADS AND VEHICLE AND EQUIPMENT MAINTENANCE SUPERVISOR RICHARD BOYLAN. Operations Superintendent Don Rhoads and Vehicle and Equipment Maintenance Supervisor Richard Boylan. They also manage the Shop itself, which was expanded and moved several years ago due to the Caltrans Freeway Overpass project. Mr. Rhoads was hired as a Field Operations Superintendent in October 2000, and while his experience in water distribution and wastewater collection is substantial, his experience in fleet management is considerably less. In January 2001, Mr. Boylan was promoted to the position of Vehicle and Equipment Maintenance Supervisor, and although he has a great deal of experience in physically maintaining fleets, he lacks management experience and can benefit from the instruction and information exchange available at the conference and workshops. The value of the District's fleet and the reliability demanded of it mandate a modern management approach. Attendance at this annual West Coast conference is part of this plan. RECOMMENDED BOARD ACTION: Approve the attendance of Field Operations Superintendent Don Rhoads and Vehicle and Equipment Maintenance Supervisor Richard Boylan at the Vehicle Maintenance Management Conference and pre- conference workshops in Seattle, Washington, March 22 - 28, 2002. 2/14/02 CSO /C: \WINDOWS \TEMP \fleetrng.wpd Page 2 of 2 'A �D cr C N N O O N O 0) MT a v Mi m m O I c r-t O N O r rot WA C) 1�1 0 C P'f EP CD 00 rt 0 0 0 0 0- c c c c Lo O O O 4,-q- -bq- CJ1 N N (D C) < U,.000 O°o °o o' O n -O :3 O CD U) O -0 (D �- o rt �". o�. c° (D o a) =3 C � n � o r..r. �, cn rt O 3 rt V) `C O 3 O Q. rr _0 70 r•r H CL a =- CL n o � � � a �- -I -.

REAL PROPERTY Type of Action: Authorize Agreement Modification subject. AUTHORIZE THE GENERAL MANAGER TO EXECUTE A LEASE AGREEMENT MODIFICATION WITH CONTRA COSTA COUNTY FOR THE ANIMAL SERVICES FACILITY. Submitted By, . Randall M. Musgraves Initiating Dept/Div.: Administration REVIEWED AND RECOMMENDED FOR BOARD ACTION. V. Lamica R.,Ausgofies General Manager ISSUE: The Board of Directors' approval, authorizing the General Manager to execute the agreement modifications, is requested to modify the current lease with Animal Services Department, Contra Costa County. RECOMMENDATION: Authorize the General Manager to execute the proposed lease agreement modifications with Contra Costa County for the Animal Services facility. FINANCIAL IMPACTS: The monthly lease amount of $5,800 was to be increased to $23,200 on November 4, 2002. The District could lose up $261,000 if the County stayed the full additional year as requested for completion of their new facility. This amount would be offset by the County's willingness to pay for the demolition and removal of unwanted structures from the site, valued at approximately $75,000. The total financial impacts are difficult to estimate due to the ambiguous nature of the demolition and the potential negative impact to the District if the County became uncooperative in other areas. The more important issue is the likely strain between the two agencies created by enforcing the current agreement. ALTERNATIVES /CONSIDERATIONS: Options include enforcing the current agreement or negotiating an increase in the lease amount greater than the $5,800 but less than the $23,200. The third option is the recommended option of obtaining some financial benefit for the lease agreement extension, without appearing unfairly opportunistic. BACKGROUND: The Animal Services facilities and property was purchased by the District as buffer property in 1999. The District currently has a lease agreement with Contra Costa County for the Animal Services facility. The agreement was executed on November 2, 1999 with the Animal Services to move by November 4, 2002, prior to significant lease rate increases. The County Animal Services Department had planned to open a new facility during the summer of 2002. The County Board of Supervisors recently approved these new facilities after resolving design and funding issues. The County and District have had discussions concerning the feasibility of a one year lease extension at the current rate to November 4, 2003. The County is currently leasing the property from the District for $5,800 per month. The lease was structured to provide a penalty to the County if Animal Services stayed longer than the 2/14/02 Page 1 of 3 POSITION PAPER Board Meeting Date: February 21, 2002 subject. AUTHORIZE THE GENERAL MANAGER TO EXECUTE A LEASE AGREEMENT MODIFICATION WITH CONTRA COSTA COUNTY FOR THE ANIMAL SERVICES FACILITY three years. The purpose of the lease rate escalation or penalty to the monthly rate of $23,200 from November 5, 2002, and $29,000 from February 5, 2003, was simply to provide the County with an incentive to move in a timely manner. The District has no plans for the use of the facility which would be negatively impacted by the lease extension. The County has agreed to pay for the demolition and removal of any unwanted structures at the site upon vacating the premises. These activities were not part of the original lease agreement and are estimated in today's dollars at approximately $75,000. Initially, the County planned to consolidate all animal shelter operations in the new animal shelter in Martinez, thereby allowing the closure of the fifty year old animal shelter facilities in both Martinez and Pinole while substantially reducing operating costs. This plan was rejected by the Board of Supervisors in April 2001 in response to the outcry of West County residents who strongly advocated for the continuation of a shelter program in that portion of the county. Finding a solution to this problem led to considerable delays in the planning and design for the Martinez facility project, while developing a smaller satellite shelter in Pinole in a way that was still cost - effective. The entire construction bid package, as well as the land swap with Pinole, was approved by the Board of Supervisors at their February 5, 2002 meeting. Bids will be opened in mid - March, with an expectation of award on April 23, 2002. This should allow the County to construct the Martinez facility and allow relocation by November 2003. The District has always attempted to develop and maintain good relations with its neighboring cities, agencies and the County. The new County Administrator, Mr. John Sweeten, and the District's General Manager have been meeting in an effort to strengthen that relationship. There are many important areas where the County and the District can become important allies to the benefit of the general public. Staff views this agreement modification as a positive statement in partnering with the County Animal Services Department and developing a mutually beneficial solution. The new facility will be located at Imhoff Way, just north of the District and will be serviced by recycled water for its landscape. Other current partnering activities with the County include: • Joint Global Positioning System (GPS) survey • Right -Of -Way Agreements for District sewer projects • One stop permitting services for both agencies • Access and agreements with County Flood Control • Base map data conversion project saving the District approximately $400,000 • Joint Powers Agreement for Digital Ortho photographs saving the District approximately $200,000 • Movement of the Right -Of -Way on the Iron Horse Trail 2/14/02 Page 2 of 3 POSITION PAPER Board Meeting Date: February 21, 2002 subject AUTHORIZE THE GENERAL MANAGER TO EXECUTE A LEASE AGREEMENT MODIFICATION WITH CONTRA COSTA COUNTY FOR THE ANIMAL SERVICES FACILITY In addition, the District is currently working or will be working with the County on: Possible radio communications system improvements Coordination of public works projects Sewer Service Charge automation improvements for billing on the Property Tax Roll Again, staff believes that this lease agreement modification will significantly benefit the District through demolition and removal cost savings at the site and improved cooperation between the two agencies. RECOMMENDED BOARD ACTION: Authorize the General Manager to execute the proposed agreement modification providing Contra Costa County a one year extension at the current lease rate for the Animal Services facility and providing for disposal and removal costs to be paid for by the County. 2/14/02 Page 3 of 3 Central Contra Costa Sanitary District l BOARD OF DIRECTORS POSITION PAPER Board Meeting Date: February 21, 2002 No•: 11.a.

On June 7, 2001, President Bush signed into law the "Economic Growth and Tax Relief Reconciliation Act of 2001."

The dollar contribution limit will be increased over a five -year period as follows: Year Contribution Limit 2002 $11,000 2003 $12,000 2004 $13,000 2005 $14,000 2006 $15,000 After 2006, the limit will be indexed to inflation in $500 increments. Catch -up limits have also been increased from a maximum of $15,000 to twice the normal 457 contribution limit in effect for that year, i.e. $22,000 in year 2002 and $30,000 in year 2006. A special age 50 catch -up contribution is also allowed under the new law starting at $1,000 the first year and increasing to $5,000 in year five. ♦ Portability of Account Assets - Effective January 1, 2002, participants will be allowed to roll most 457 Plan distributions into 401 Plans and traditional IRA's, and vice versa when they move between jobs in the public, private, nonprofit, and education sectors. In the past, transfers from 457 Plans were only allowed to be rolled over to another 457 Plan. ♦ Distributions - In the past, participants had to select a beginning payment date for distributions within 60 days of leaving employment, with one opportunity to postpone that date. Also, once distributions commenced, the payment schedule could not be changed. These limitations have been eliminated as of January 1, 2002. Now, participants can start and stop payments, and change the amounts received giving more flexibility to their withdrawals as life circumstances change. 2/8/02 S:\ ADMIN\ POSPAPER \457DefComp.02.21.02ppmpd Page 2 of 25 POSITION PAPER Board Meeting Date: February 21, 2002 subject: APPROVE A BOARD RESOLUTION TO ADOPT THE REVISED SECTION 457 DEFERRED COMPENSATION PLAN DOCUMENT The attached revised Plan Document was provided by ICMA Retirement Corporation.

Such reasonable compensation of the Administrator, as may be agreed upon from time to time by the Employer and the Administrator, and reimbursement for reasonable expenses incurred by the Administrator in performance of its duties hereunder (including but not limited to fees for legal, accounting, investment and custodial services) shall also be paid from the Trust. 6.04 Payment of Benefits: The payment of benefits from the Trust in accordance with the terms of the Plan may be made by the Administrator, or by any custodian or other person so authorized by the Employer to make such disbursement.

The Employer may require such documentation from the other plan as it deems necessary to effectuate the transfer, to confirm that such plan is an eligible deferred compensation plan within the meaning of Section 457(b) of the Code, and to assure that transfers are provided for under such plan. Such transfers shall be made only under such circumstances as are permitted under Section 457 of the Code and the regulations thereunder. 6.10 Eligible Rollover Distributions: (a) Effective Date: This Section 6.10 is effective January 1, 2002.

For purposes of distributions from other eligible retirement plans rolled over into this Plan, the term eligible rollover distribution shall not include the portion of any distribution that is not includible in gross income (determined without regard to the exclusion for net unrealized appreciation with respect to employer securities). (2) Eligible Retirement Plan: An eligible retirement plan is an individual retirement account described in Section 408(a) of the Code, an individual retirement annuity described in Section 408(b) of the Code, an annuity plan described in Sections 403(a) or 403(b) of the Code, a qualified trust described in Section 401(a) of the Code, or an eligible deferred compensation plan described in Section 457(b) of the Code which is maintained by an eligible governmental employer described in Section 457(e)(1)(A) of the Code, that accepts the distributee's eligible rollover distribution.

Where necessary to carry out the terms of such an order, a separate Account shall be established with respect to the spouse, former spouse, or child who shall be entitled to make investment selections with respect thereto in the same manner as the Participant; any amount so set aside for a spouse, former spouse, or child shall be paid out in a lump sum at the earliest date that benefits may be paid to the Participant, unless the order directs a different time or form of payment. Nothing in this Section shall be construed to authorize any amount to be distributed under the Plan at a time or in a form that is not permitted under Section 457(b) of the Code. Any payment made to a person pursuant to this Section shall be reduced by any required income tax withholding. (b) Release from Liability to Participant: The Employer's liability to pay benefits to a Participant shall be reduced to the extent that amounts have been paid or set aside for payment to a spouse, former spouse, or child pursuant to paragraph (a) of the Section.

(c) Participation in Legal Proceedings: The Employer and Administrator shall not be obligated to defend against or set aside any judgement, decree, or order described in paragraph (a) or any legal order relating to the garnishment of a Participant's benefits, unless the full expense of such legal action is borne by the Participant. In the event that the Participant's action (or inaction) nonetheless causes the Employer or Administrator to incur such expense, the amount of the expense may be charged against the Participant's Account and thereby reduce the Employer's obligation to pay benefits to the Participant. In the course of any proceeding relating to divorce, separation, or child support, the Employer and Administrator shall be authorized to disclose information relating to the Participant's Account to the Participant's spouse, former spouse, dependent, or child (including the legal representatives of the spouse, former spouse, or child), or to a court.

In the event of such disapproval, the Administrator shall be under no obligation to continue acting as Administrator hereunder. Except as may be required to maintain the status of the Plan as an eligible deferred compensation plan under Section 457(b) of the Code or to comply with other applicable laws, no amendment or termination of the Plan shall divest any Participant of any rights with respect to compensation deferred before the date of the amendment or termination. Article X11.

BUDGET AND FINANCE Type of Action: RECEIVE BUDGET REVIEW subject: RECEIVE THE 2001 -2002 OPERATIONS AND MAINTENANCE BUDGET REVIEW FOR THE SIX MONTHS ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2001 Submitted By: Initiating Dept. /Div.: Debbie Ratcliff, Controller Administrative Department REVIEWED AND RECOMMENDED FOR BOARD ACTION. zk_ 2t.fA.X�, D. Ratcliff Rh raves General ISSUE: A report of the results of a comparative review of actual and budgeted Operations and Maintenance (O &M) revenues and expenses for the first six months of the 2001- 2002 fiscal year as well as full year projections are provided in this Position Paper. In addition, any significant variances from budget for the first six months and any significant full year projected variances are discussed. RECOMMENDATION: Receive the 2001 -2002 Operations and Maintenance Budget Review for the six months ended December 31, 2001 and full fiscal year projections. FINANCIAL IMPACTS: For the first six months ended December 31, 2001, total O &M revenues are $20,642,158 compared to a budget of $20,414,086 for a positive variance of $228,072 or 1.12 %. Total O &M expenses for the first six months are $17,390,877 compared to a budget of $19,034,990 for a positive variance of $1,644,113 or 8.64 %. The six month status reflects the financial results at a certain point in time and looks quite optimistic. Total projected 0 &M revenues for the full year are $41,205,800 compared to a budget of $40,991,600 for a positive variance of $214,200 or 0.52 %. Total projected O &M expenses for the full year are $39,148,433 compared to a budget of $40,209,305 for a favorable variance of $1,060,872 or 2.64 %. The primary reason for decreased expenses is due to long term gas contracts secured for the District which are lower than budget in addition to reduced usage of natural gas in favor of the less expensive landfill gas. ALTERNATIVES /CONSIDERATIONS: None BACKGROUND: The table on Attachment B compares actual O &M revenue and expense for the first six months of the fiscal year to the six -month budget. Significant variance 2/13/02 G: \FINANCE \6mopp.201.wpd Page 1 of 5 POSITION PAPER Board Meeting Date: FEBRUARY 21, 2002 subject: RECEIVE THE 2001 -2002 OPERATIONS AND MAINTENANCE BUDGET REVIEW FOR THE SIX MONTHS ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2001 explanations are included on the table. Attachment A compares full year O &M projections to budget. Anticipated significant projected variances from the annual 2001 -2002 0 &M Revenue and Expense budget are listed below: Revenue: Total O &M Revenue is projected to be $214,200 higher than budgeted mainly due to higher than expected Sewer Service Charge revenue as a result of adjustments and corrections reported to the County. This favorable variance is partially offset by lower City of Concord revenues which reflects their portion of utility savings in the District Plant. Expense: Salaries: Salaries and Wages expense is projected to be $103,023 or 0.68% lower than budgeted due to unfilled positions below the budgeted vacancy factor resulting from retirements and many positions being filled later than anticipated during the fiscal year. Benefits: Benefit costs are anticipated to be close to budget for the full year. Utilities: Utilities expense is projected to be $1,205,300 less than budgeted due to long term gas contracts secured for the District which are lower than budget, reduced usage of natural gas in favor of the less expensive landfill gas and lower than budgeted electrical usage. Repairs & Maintenance: Repairs & Maintenance expense is projected to be $45,800 over budget due to greater than anticipated costs to repair the off - line furnace. These costs include replacement of refractory, metal work, and repairs to the center shaft. Outside Services: Outside Services expense is projected to be $38,900 over budget primarily due to temporary employees being used to fill vacant positions during recruitments. Materials & Supplies: Materials & Supplies expense is projected to be $59,500 over budget due to greater than anticipated expenditures for lamp ballasts and UV lamps. 2/13/02 G: \FINANCE \6mopp.201.wpd Page 2 of 5 POSITION PAPER Board Meeting Date: FEBRUARY 21, 2002 subject: RECEIVE THE 2001 -2002 OPERATIONS AND MAINTENANCE BUDGET REVIEW FOR THE SIX MONTHS ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2001 These full year O &M projections are the projections that were shown to the Board at the Financial Planning Workshop on January 24, 2002. The full year O &M expense projections for fiscal year 2001 -2002 indicate that the District's O &M expenses will be under budget by $1.1 million. As discussed at the Board Workshop, these savings are primarily due to both energy and labor savings.
