CONSENT CALENDAR Type of Action: ACCEPT CONTRACT WORK Subject: ACCEPT THE CONTRACT WORK FOR THE WILKINSON LANE SEWER RELOCATION PROJECT, DISTRICT PROJECT NO. 5472 Submitted By: Initiating Dept. /Div.: Tom Godsey, Associate Engineer Engineering /Capital Projects REVIEWED AND RECOMMENDED FOR BOARD ACTION. 617 41011 — I (J� 0� . T. Godsey i W. Brennan A. Farrell Charles . I General Mai ISSUE: Construction has been completed on the Wilkinson Lane Sewer Relocation Project (District Project 5472) in Lafayette, and the work is now ready for acceptance. RECOMMENDATION: Accept the contract work for the Wilkinson Lane Sewer Relocation Project, and authorize the filing of the Notice of Completion. FINANCIAL IMPACTS: None related to this action. ALTERNATIVES /CONSIDERATIONS: Not applicable. Filing the Notice of Completion is advisable under the California Civil Code Section 3093. BACKGROUND: During the winter of 1994/95, a large tree fell on top of a six -inch diameter steel creek crossing sewer pipe behind the homes on Wilkinson Lane, Lafayette. Collection System Operations Department maintenance staff responded and removed the fallen tree and noted that retaining walls supporting the creek crossing were falling. Operations staff inspected the sewer, found it in good condition, and monitored the condition of the creek crossing. Engineering staff investigated retaining wall repairs and determined they would be complicated and expensive since the wall would have to be repaired in whole, thus extending the repair outside the District's easement. Further investigation revealed that the only connection to the sewer from the upstream side of the creek crossing was for the Lafayette Methodist Church building. Field surveys revealed that this particular connection could be re- routed to a different sewer main at a substantially lower cost, thus eliminating the need for the creek crossing. This project involved re- routing the church lateral to Moraga Road, removing one creek crossing, and constructing one rodding inlet. 3/11/02 Page 1 of 2 POSITION PAPER Board Meeting Date: March 21, 2002 Subject: ACCEPT THE CONTRACT WORK FOR THE WILKINSON LANE SEWER RELOCATION PROJECT, DISTRICT PROJECT NO. 5472 On October 18, 2001, the Board of Directors (Board) authorized the award of a contract for the construction of the project to Arrow Drillers, Inc.

CONSENT CALENDAR Type of Action: QUITCLAIM SEWER EASEMENTS Subject: ADOPT RESOLUTIONS AUTHORIZING EXECUTION AND RECORDING OF QUITCLAIM DEEDS FOR EASEMENTS IN THE SAN RAMON AREA, DISTRICT JOB NO. 3999 AND JOB NO. 4104 Submitted By: Initiating Dept. /Div.: Jarred Miyamoto -Mills Engineering /Environmental Services Principal Engineer REVIEWED AND RECOMMENDED FOR BOARD ACTION. U J. Miyamoto -Mills C. Swanson A. Farrell K. Alm Charles General M ISSUE: The Board must authorize quitclaiming of easements. RECOMMENDATION: Adopt resolutions authorizing the quitclaims and recording of the quitclaim deeds with the Contra Costa County Recorder. FINANCIAL IMPACTS: None ALTERNATIVES /CONSIDERATIONS: "No action" would result in the District continuing to have potential liability associated with the ownership of the easements. BACKGROUND: Canyon Lakes in San Ramon was developed in the 1980's. In conjunction with the development, sanitary sewer easements were granted to the District for future extension of sewers to an area northeast of Canyon Lakes now known as Country Club at Gale Ranch. These easements traversed three separate properties, one owned by California Kosaido Inc. and the other two owned by Canyon Green Homeowners Association and Canyon View Owners Association. When the sanitary sewer for the northeasterly extension was being designed in 1996, the alignment of the existing easements was evaluated. A portion of the alignment was located in a steep hillside which was deemed potentially unstable. Since it was inadvisable to use the existing easements for the northeasterly extension, a new easement was needed. A new easement (in the form of an Offer of Dedication) across the Canyon Lakes Golf Course owned by California Kosaido Inc. was granted to the District in 1997. 3/14/02 U:\ PPr\ Bertera \QuitClaimJob3999and4101.wpd Page 1 of 3 POSITION PAPER Board Meeting Date: March 21, 2002 subject: ADOPT RESOLUTIONS AUTHORIZING EXECUTION AND RECORDING OF QUITCLAIM DEEDS FOR EASEMENTS IN THE SAN RAMON AREA, DISTRICT JOB NO. 3999 AND JOB NO. 4104 Subsequently, a trunk sewer pipeline was installed in the new easement. The existing easements may now be quitclaimed. The purpose for the proposed quitclaims is to eliminate the District's potential liability associated with the ownership of the easements. Since action was initiated for the convenience of the District, no quitclaim fees were collected from the property owners. Staff concluded that this project (the proposed quitclaim) is exempt from the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) under District CEQA Guidelines Section 15305, since it involves a minor alteration in land use limitations. Board of Directors' approval of this quitclaim will constitute an independent finding that this project is exempt from CEQA. RECOMMENDED BOARD ACTION: Adopt resolutions authorizing the President of the Board and the Secretary of the District to execute Quitclaim Deeds to California Kosaido Inc., Canyon Green Homeowners Association, and Canyon View Owners Association and authorize the Quitclaim Deeds to be recorded at the Contra Costa County Recorder's Office. 3/14/02 U:\ PPr\ Bertera \QuitClaimJob3999and4101.wpd Page 2 of 3 O` 2 Central Contra Costa Sanitary District Prepared by Engineering Support Sectic ., \ O � a a � L I\ QUITCLAIM EXISTING EASEMENT >\ \ 1 Q� I o % � It 0 LOCATION MAP N.T.S.

ENGINEERING Type of Action: AUTHORIZE AGREEMENT subject: AUTHORIZE THE GENERAL MANAGER TO EXECUTE AN AGREEMENT WITH KENNEDY /JENKS CONSULTANTS TO PROVIDE PROFESSIONAL ENGINEERING SERVICES FOR THE DESIGN OF THE OUTFALL IMPROVEMENTS PROJECT, PHASE 5, DISTRICT PROJECT NO. 7197 Submitted By: Initiating Dept. /Div.: Ba T. Than, Senior Engineer Engineering / Capital Projects REVIEWED AND RECOMMENDED FOR BOARD ACTION. P�T a B B. Than W. Brennan A. Farrell General Manager ISSUE: Board of Directors' authorization is required for the General Manager to execute professional engineering services contracts for amounts greater than $50,000. RECOMMENDATION: Authorize the General Manager to execute an agreement with Kennedy /Jenks Consultants to provide design services for the Outfall Improvements Project, Phase 5, District Project No. 7197, in the amount of $98,000. FINANCIAL IMPACTS: The design cost for this work is $98,000 for Kennedy /Jenks Consultants. The total project cost, including construction, is estimated at $500,000. Staff have determined that adequate funds are available and expenditures are consistent with the current Capital Improvement Budget. ALTERNATIVES /CONSIDERATIONS: An alternative would be to design all work in- house, which would be difficult to accomplish given the current workload in Engineering. BACKGROUND: Final effluent from the District's wastewater treatment plant is discharged to Suisun Bay through an outfall pipeline constructed in 1958. The 72 -inch diameter reinforced concrete pipe outfall consists of two sections: land and marine. The marine section of the outfall is 1,700 feet in length and is inspected annually by divers. The latest underwater inspection found the marine section to be in good condition. The land section is about 19,000 feet in length and consists of 1,492 pipe joints. A long -term, multi -phase program to improve the outfall and effluent pumping system has been initiated by the District. The land section of the outfall was built in soft bay mud and the pipe joints have shifted over time. Prior work on the land section of the outfall repaired 316 joints using 286 mechanical seals. Approximately 1,200 joints remain unchanged since installation. 3/13/02 L: \Position Papers \BTHAN \7197agree K -J.wpd Page 1 of 2 POSITION PAPER Board Meeting Date: March 21, 2002 subject: AUTHORIZE THE GENERAL MANAGER TO EXECUTE AN AGREEMENT WITH KENNEDY /JENKS CONSULTANTS TO PROVIDE PROFESSIONAL ENGINEERING SERVICES FOR THE DESIGN OF THE OUTFALL IMPROVEMENTS PROJECT, PHASE 5, DISTRICT PROJECT NO. 7197 The District's current National Pollution Discharge Elimination Ssystem Permit with the Regional Water Quality Control Board mandates the District to inspect the condition of the outfall every five years. This project, which is scheduled for summer 2002, will encompass diverting effluent, dewatering the outfall, and inspecting and digitally recording the condition of the pipe, while making any critical repairs. Sections of the outfall are installed near the IT Baker and ACME landfill sites making it possible for contaminated groundwater to find its way into the outfall via leaking joints. Contaminated water will require treatment before being discharged to the creek. The design consultant selection process started in March 2000. In an effort to broaden the pool of consultants, District requested proposals for the design of this project from twenty - six engineering consulting firms. The District received no replies. Staff called a number of the firms and discovered that shortage of manpower, lack of experience with similar projects, and strong competition factored against proposal submittals. Staff then outreached to a number of consultants with known experience. Staff identified three firms that showed interest and had solid experience with outfall rehabilitation. Two firms, Kennedy /Jenks Consultants and Winzler & Kelly Consulting Engineers, submitted proposals on February 14. After reviewing proposals and conducting interviews on February 22, Kennedy /Jenks Consultants was selected due to their experience with outfall rehabilitation, qualified project personnel, and their superior technical approach emphasizing safety and hazardous materials handling. Staff has concluded that the design agreement with Kennedy /Jenks Consultants is exempt from the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) under District CEQA Guidelines Section 15262 since it involves design tasks for possible future actions which the District has not approved, adopted, or funded, and the outcome of these tasks will not have a legally binding effect on later activities. Approval of this agreement will establish the Board of Directors' independent finding that this project is exempt from CEQA. The District will conduct an environmental evaluation of any capital project which is proposed in the future as a result of these studies to determine the appropriate CEQA compliance documentation. RECOMMENDED BOARD ACTION: Authorize the General Manager to execute an agreement with Kennedy /Jenks Consultants in the amount of $98,000 for the design of the Outfall Improvements Project, Phase 5, District Project No. 7197. 3/13/02 U Position Papers \BTHAN \7197agree K -J.wpd Page 2 of 2 n o �s �q M �s �q E 4 e a4 x z 1� i1+*bj; a • JA — s� o ^ N O fop _.

ENGINEERING Type of Action: APPROVE PROJECT Subject: APPROVE THE SAN RAMON FORCE MAIN PROJECT, DISTRICT PROJECT 5554 Submitted By: Tad Pilecki, Principal Engineer Initiating Dept ✓Div.: Engineering /Capital Projects REVIEWED AND RECOMMENDED FOR BOARD ACTION: -6 �'—? A QIK ilecki W. Brennan A. Farrell ISSUE: Board approval of the San Ramon Force Main Project is required prior to the filing of a Notice of Determination under the District's California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) Guidelines. RECOMMENDATION: Approve the San Ramon Force Main Project. FINANCIAL IMPACTS: The total project cost is approximately $6,300,000. ALTERNATIVES /CONSIDERATIONS: The Board may delay or decline to approve the project. Understandings reached with the City of San Ramon require that construction of the force main be completed by December 2002. If the project is not constructed by the end of 2003, force main capacity will be inadequate to serve the wastewater transport needs of the existing and planned service area. BACKGROUND: In late 1983, the District undertook planning and engineering studies for a new interceptor to serve the southern portion of the District's service area. As part of this effort, the District negotiated and purchased easements for the new interceptor within the former Southern Pacific right -of -way from Contra Costa County. The overall San Ramon Valley Interceptor Project consists of approximately nine miles of large diameter gravity interceptor sewer and 2-1/2 miles of force main, which is being constructed in several schedules. The Schedule "A" project, which stretches six miles from Sycamore Valley Road in Danville north to Rudgear Road in Walnut Creek was completed in 1988. Schedule "B," which covers the 1-1/2 mile section from Sycamore Valley Road south to Saint James Court in Danville was completed in 1988. The remaining Schedule "C" includes 1-1/2 miles of gravity sewer and 2-1/2 miles of force main. This schedule will extend from Saint James Court in Danville south to the Larwin (San Ramon) Pumping Station and will be constructed in two phases (see Attachment 1). The proposed project is the force main phase of the Schedule "C" project and would entail construction of approximately 12,000 lineal feet of 24 -inch diameter 3/11/02 I: \Construction \Position Papers \2002 \SRForceMainApprovalPP.wpd Page 1 of 4 POSITION PAPER Board Meeting Date: March 21, 2002 Subject: APPROVE THE SAN RAMON FORCE MAIN PROJECT, DISTRICT PROJECT 5554 force main from the Larwin (San Ramon) Pumping Station to 700 feet north of Norris Canyon Road. With construction proceeding on the Dougherty Valley development, wastewater flow to the Larwin (San Ramon) Pumping Station is expected to increase significantly, requiring the installation of a new force main to carry the flow. The 1 -1/2 miles of gravity line will be needed in approximately five years. District staff plans to advertise for project construction bids beginning April 1, 2002. Award of Contract is anticipated in May 2002, and construction would begin summer 2002. The environmental impacts of construction and operation of this force main project were addressed in the District's 1986 Final Environmental Impact Report, San Ramon Valley Trunk Sewer Improvement Project. The Board of Directors certified this EIR on October 28, 1986. Since that time, the project area has experienced some changes that might have affected the project's environmental impacts. Additional development has occurred adjacent to the project route (including more Bishop Ranch Business Park buildings, Iron Horse Middle School, and Central Park), and the Southern Pacific right -of -way (although used as an unofficial pedestrian /bicycle path in 1986) has been formally established as the Iron Horse Trail for pedestrian /bicycle access. These new developments are not substantial changes in the environmental conditions of the project setting because they represent similar land uses to those present in the project area at the time of the 1986 EIR. The 1986 EIR concluded that the overall project would result in direct, short -term construction effects that would be substantially lessened with implementation of mitigation measures identified in the report, but may not be reduced to a level of insignificance. The impacts included traffic, utility and vegetation disruptions, restrictions on trail use, and increased noise and dust levels. The overall project also would have significant, long -term, secondary environmental effects resulting from the accommodated development. Despite the additional development, no new significant construction - related impacts would occur (although more people may be affected by the same impacts already identified). There is also no new information of substantial importance, which was not known and could not have been known with the exercise of reasonable diligence at the time the previous EIR was certified as complete, that indicates that the project would have one or more new significant effects or substantially more severe effects than those discussed in the 1986 EIR. In fact, the latest design for the proposed project would reduce or eliminate some of the construction - related environmental effects described in the 1986 3/11/02 I: \Construction \Position Papers \2002 \SRForceMainApprovalPP.wpd Page 2 of 4 POSITION PAPER Board Meeting Date: March 21, 2002 Subject: APPROVE THE SAN RAMON FORCE MAIN PROJECT, DISTRICT PROJECT 5554 EIR since the plans include tunneling under all major roadways and creeks to avoid surface disruptions, maintaining pedestrian and bicycle access to the Iron Horse Trail at all times, and scheduling construction during the summer months to avoid impacts on nearby schools. At its March 12, 2002 meeting, the San Ramon City Council discussed delaying the construction of this project to allow it to coincide with construction of a recycled water line being planned by the Dublin San Ramon Services District /East Bay Municipal Utility District Recycled Water Authority (DERWA). At this point, although no formal vote was taken, the City Council indicated that the District's San Ramon Force Main Project should continue as a separate project on the current schedule. RECOMMENDED BOARD ACTION: Approve the San Ramon Force Main Project, District Project 5554, and direct staff to file a Notice of Determination with the Contra Costa County Clerk. 3/11/02 I: \Construction \Position Papers\ 2002 \5554 \SRForceMainApprovaIPP.wpd Page 3 of 4 j Ar N.T.S. z NORRIS CANYON 2 EXECUTIVE PARKWAY__ � IF z 3 , CANYON `' ~� S A N MONTEVIDEO SCHOOL • FI7X `p z, AujT o ' CALIFORNIA C as #IIGH SCHOOL MIDDLE SCHOOL 1 LEGEND: FORCE MAIN INTERCEPTOR Central Contra Costa Attachment Sanitary District SAN RAMON SCHEDULE C ' INTERCEPTOR AND FORCE MAIN 1 Page 4 of 4 BOARD REPORT SAN RAMON FORCE MAIN PROJECT DP 5554 MARCH 21, 2002 Central Contra Costa n Sanitary District Attachment t SAN RAMON VALLEY INTERCEPTOR V 2 F, V - 24 O ' 680 IC - _ RU* R RD • R EE1C�- _ STONE Vq - - � -9sF ALAM�O q9, DDA LO_ . !.

BUDGET AND FINANCE Type of Action: AUTHORIZE AMENDMENT Subject: AUTHORIZE THE PRESIDENT OF THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS AND THE SECRETARY OF THE DISTRICT TO EXECUTE AN AMENDMENT TO THE DISTRICT'S SERVICE AGREEMENT WITH THE CITY OF CONCORD CONCERNING THE SCHEDULE FOR PAYMENT OF "SHARED FACILITIES" OPERATIONS AND MAINTENANCE COST Submitted By: Initiating Dept. /Div.: Jarred Miyamoto -Mills Engineering /Environmental Services Principal Engineer REVIEWED AND RECOMMENDED FOR BOARD ACTION: W1 1__� — (�GK ZZ J. Miyamoto -Mills A. Farrell D. Ratcliff K. Alm harle General Manager ISSUE: Amendments to the District's service agreement with the City of Concord roust be authorized by the Board of Directors. RECOMMENDATION: Authorize the President of the Board of Directors and the Secretary of the District to execute the proposed amendment to the District's service agreement with the City of Concord concerning the schedule for payment of shared facilities operations and maintenance costs. FINANCIAL IMPACTS: The schedule for Concord's payment of shared facilities operations and maintenance costs will be changed from twice - per -year to once -per- year. Each fiscal year's payment would be calculated in arrears based on actual costs. The current practice which requires that the City maintain an advance deposit of approximately one - quarter of a year's payment would be replaced with a finance charge at the average LAIF interest rate for proper accounting of the time - value -of- money. This change in schedule will reduce both the District and City staff time requirements for administering the billing and payment process. ALTERNATIVES /CONSIDERATIONS: If the Board of Directors elects not to authorize the proposed amendment, the current twice - per -year billing /payment cycle and requirement for the City to maintain an advance deposit will continue. BACKGROUND: In response to Federal and State mandates calling for regionalization of wastewater treatment services, the District entered into a service contract with the City of Concord on September 10, 1974. The agreement has been amended on four occasions since that time for the following reasons: 3/14/02 U: \PPr \Bertera \PP for Fifth Amendment.wpd Page 1 of 5 POSITION PAPER Board Meeting Date: March 21, 2002 Subject: AUTHORIZE THE PRESIDENT OF THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS AND THE SECRETARY OF THE DISTRICT TO EXECUTE AN AMENDMENT TO THE DISTRICT'S AGREEMENT WITH THE CITY OF CONCORD CONCERNING THE SCHEDULE FOR PAYMENT OF "SHARED FACILITIES" OPERATIONS AND MAINTENANCE COST ♦ November 16, 1976 Provided for temporary District operation of City's treatment plant during transition and transfer of City treatment plant staff to District employ. ♦ June 11, 1982 Provided for the City to conduct a source control and industrial pretreatment program. ♦ June 6, 1985 Changed basis for sharing shared facilities capital costs from proportion of assessed valuation to proportion of annual flow volume. Clarified methodology and responsibility for flow monitoring. ♦ July 6, 1987 Transferred responsibility for the source control and industrial pretreatment program to the District. As a part of ongoing discussions regarding the 1974 agreement between District and City of Concord staffs, a proposal to streamline the billing and payment process for shared facilities operations and maintenance costs has been developed. If authorized, the current twice - per -year schedule for billing by the District and payment by the City would be replaced with a once - per -year schedule. In addition, the requirement for the City maintain an advance deposit of approximately one - quarter of a year's payment (currently about $1.5 million) would be replaced with a finance charge at the average LAIF interest rate for proper accounting of the time - value -of- money. The proposed amendment to the service agreement to implement these changes is presented as Attachment 1. The joint District /City staff committee is continuing its consideration of other issues regarding the Agreement raised by Concord. RECOMMENDED BOARD ACTION: Authorize the President of the Board of Directors and the Secretary of the District to execute the proposed amendment to the District's service agreement with the City of Concord concerning the schedule for payment of shared facilities operations and maintenance costs. 3/14/02 U: \PPr \Bertera \PP for Fifth Amendment.wpd Page 2 of 5 ATTACHMENT 1 FIFTH AMENDMENT TO THE SEPTEMBER 10, 1974 AGREEMENT BETWEEN THE CITY OF CONCORD AND THE CENTRAL CONTRA COSTA SANITARY DISTRICT This AMENDMENT is made and entered into as of the latest date hereinafter affixed, by and between the CITY OF CONCORD, a general law city in the County of Contra Costa, State of California (hereinafter "City "), and CENTRAL CONTRA COSTA SANITARY DISTRICT, a special district created pursuant to the laws of the State of California (hereinafter "District "). WITNESSETH: WHEREAS, on September 10, 1974, the parties hereto executed an agreement whereby the District agreed to furnish sewage treatment and disposal services to the City (hereinafter "Agreement "); and WHEREAS, the Agreement has been amended previously on four occasions, namely on November 16, 1976, on June 11, 1982, on June 6, 1985, and on July 6, 1987; and WHEREAS, the parties hereto desire to streamline the billing and payment process and ensure proper accounting for the time -value of money by amending paragraph 12 C. of the Agreement, as previously amended, to modify the procedures for the City's payment of operations and maintenance costs for commonly used facilities. NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the faithful performance of the terms and conditions set forth herein, the parties mutually covenant and agree as follows: 1 . Recitals Part of Agreement. The above described recitals are included herein and made a part of the Agreement. 2. Effective Date. The effective date of this amendment is July 1, 2002. 3. Paragraph 12 C. of the Agreement, as that paragraph was amended by the Third Amendment on June 6, 1985, is amended to read: "C. Payment of Operation and Maintenance Costs of Commonly Used Facilities Beginning with fiscal year 2002 -2003, and each fiscal year thereafter, the City shall pay to the District the City's share of annual District operations and maintenance costs for commonly used facilities Page 3 of 5 Fifth Amendment to the September 10, 1974 Agreement Between the City of Concord and the Central Contra Costa Sanitary District (based on the provisions of Paragraph 8 of the Agreement, as amended) within 30 calendar days of receipt of an invoice therefor from the District. The District shall send such invoice, based on its pre -audit financial reports, to the City within 45 days of the close of the fiscal year (i.e., by August 15), or shall notify the City in writing of the necessity for delaying the submittal of the invoice and the projected date that the invoice will be sent. Following the District Board of Directors' approval of its Audited Financial Statement, generally in October, the District shall send an amended invoice for the fiscal year to the City. If the amount of the amended invoice is less than the pre -audit invoice amount and payment of the pre - audit amount has been made by the City, the District shall enclose payment of the difference to the City with the amended invoice. If the amount of the amended invoice is more than the pre -audit invoice amount, the City shall pay the difference to the District within 30 days of receipt of the amended invoice. For the purpose of this Agreement, "operations and maintenance costs for commonly used facilities" means those District costs incurred in operating and maintaining the commonly used facilities in efficient working condition without increasing their capacity or appreciably extending their useful life, plus the prorata share of the administrative and general cost of the District applicable to the commonly used facilities, plus a finance charge to cover the District's carrying costs during the fiscal year. The finance charge shall be calculated at the time of billing as follows: The total annual operations and maintenance costs for commonly used facilities not including the finance charge multiplied times one -half the State of California local Agency Investment Fund average interest rate for the twelve month period immediately prior to the month of the billing. Interest shall accrue through the end of the month prior to the date of the invoice. If payment in full on any invoice is not received by the District within the 30 day grace period prescribed herein, interest shall continue to accrue on any unpaid balance through the date on which full payment from the City is received by the District " Page 4 of 5 Fifth Amendment to the September 10, 1974 Agreement Between the City of Concord and the Central Contra Costa Sanitary District IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties have executed this amendment on the dates affixed below.
