FINANCIAL IMPACTS: None by this action. If the staff recommendation to revise Environmental and Development - Related Rates and Charges is adopted by the Board of Directors following the public hearing, it is projected that approximately $150,000 to $200,000 in additional annual revenue for the Operations and Maintenance (O &M) Fund and the Capital Improvement Fund will be generated beginning in Fiscal Year 2005 -06.

The last comprehensive review of these rates and charges occurred in 2003. District staff periodically reviews the rates and charges to assess whether changes are appropriate. The District's financial constraints and the State's mandate that revenues from these sources not exceed the cost of providing services warranted a review of rates and charges at this time. Following the review, staff recommends that several of the rates and charges be increased, a few be decreased or remain unchanged, some new charges be added, and a few others eliminated. The proposal was discussed with the Board Outreach Committee on February 24, 2005, and with the full Board during the General Manager's Report on March 3, 2005.

ENGINEERING Type of Action: AUTHORIZE GENERAL MANAGER TO EXTEND CONTRACT subject: AUTHORIZE THE GENERAL MANAGER TO EXTEND THE AGREEMENT WITH THE CONTRA COSTA CLEAN WATER PROGRAM AUTHORIZING THE SOURCE CONTROL SECTION TO CONTINUE CONDUCTING STORM WATER INSPECTION SERVICES Submitted By: Initiating Dept. /Div.: Tim Potter, Source Control Program Engineering /Environmental Services Superintendent Division REVIEWED AND RECOMMENDED FOR BOARD ACTION: 1--t-% - T. Potter C. Swanson A. Fa II K. Alm Char"Manager Gen ISSUE: The current contract with the Contra Costa Clean Water Program (CWP) expires on June 30, 2005 unless the General Manager processes an extension creating a new expiration date of June 30, 2007. The Agreement allows for any participating agency to terminate its obligations under the contract provided that all other parties are given written notice within 90 days of the effective date of the termination of services. RECOMMENDATION: Authorize the General Manager to extend the contract with the CWP for the District to conduct storm water inspections in the central county cities. FINANCIAL IMPACTS: The proposed agreement provides for reimbursement of the District's costs. The FY 2004 -05 budget for completing these CWP inspection services is $233,840, which includes inspectors' salary and benefits plus overhead and expenses. This revenue pays for two contingently funded Source Control. Inspector positions involved in the CWP program. ALTERNATIVES /CONSIDERATIONS: Entering into this contractual agreement is a voluntary action. The alternative is to not enter into the agreement, to not provide the storm water inspection services for the ten cities in the District's service area, and to provide 90 -day notice of termination. The present expectation of the County Clean Water Program is that the contract will be renewed. BACKGROUND: The District's Source Control Section has successfully completed the storm water inspections each year since beginning the service in Fiscal Year (FY) 1997/98. The CWP and the cities in the District's service area value the services provided by the District to conduct this mandatory element of the storm water National HAExec Asst \CWP contract PP.DOC Page 1 of 3 POSITION PAPER Board Meeting Date: March 17, 2005 subject: AUTHORIZE THE GENERAL MANAGER TO EXTEND THE AGREEMENT WITH THE CONTRA COSTA CLEAN WATER PROGRAM AUTHORIZING THE SOURCE CONTROL SECTION TO CONTINUE CONDUCTING STORM WATER INSPECTION SERVICES Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (NPDES) Permit issued to the CWP, the county, and the cities in Contra Costa County. The District provides this service for Central County; Delta Diablo Sanitation District provides for East County; and East Bay Municipal Utility District provides for West County. The contract provides cost recovery for the District by enabling the Source Control staff to bill their time to the CWP with an overhead multiplier that reflects the District's actual overhead costs. During FY 2003 -04, the District received $170,330 from the CWP for services provided under this agreement. For FY 2004 -05, the District anticipates receiving approximately $200,000 from the CWP. This effectively covers the cost of two contingently funded Source Control Inspectors. So far, through December 17, 2004, the District has received $104,403 for services provided under the agreement. The inspection services agreement benefits both the District and the CWP by creating efficiencies through completing combined pretreatment and storm water inspections. The primary benefits to the District include: Combined pretreatment and storm water inspections enable efficient evaluations of the business's wastewater management by evaluating both District Source Control requirements, and CWP mandates. When improper discharges to the storm drain system are identified, the business contact is immediately apprised of what strategies are needed to control storm water impacts and where appropriate to redirect the wastewater to the sanitary sewer system. Customer relations are also facilitated through the combined inspection program where one inspection incorporates the regulatory requirements of both the federal pretreatment program (District Source Control) and the urban runoff /storm water requirements (CWP). This results in one inspection, one contact person, and a single follow up action where mandated. This single procedure reduces the time and effort required from effected business in dealing with this compliance issue. Combined inspections also reduce the oversight efforts from various regulatory agency staff. As escalating federal and regional regulatory requirements force the District to further strengthen our Local Limits and increase the number of affected local businesses under permit, the efficiencies from this partnership will increase. District inspectors will have established knowledge of, and relationships with these businesses through the storm water inspection program. This should allow a smoother transition for all parties into new permit requirements and overall compliance.

RWQCB staff that oversees the Contra Costa County storm water NPDES Permit has complimented the District for providing these inspection services in a variety of venues (e.g., multi- agency meetings, training sessions). The United States Environmental Protection Agency (USEPA), RWQCB, and CWP staff have identified this type of inspection service agreement between POTWs and CWP municipalities as a "model" program. District Counsel has reviewed and approved the extension of the contract. Staff recommends extension of the contract for two years, through June 2007. This Position Paper is presented to the Board to meet the 90 -day notice of termination requirement. However, if the Board wishes to terminate the contract with the Contra Costa Clean Water Program, staff's recommendation would be to extend the contract with the CWP for the next year and provide notice of future termination, allowing the CWP adequate time to develop an inspection program to meet their regulatory requirements. RECOMMENDED BOARD ACTION: Authorize the General Manager to extend the contract with the Contra Costa Clean Water Program for the District's Source Control Section to conduct storm water inspections in the central county cities through June 30, 2007.

EMERGNECY SITUTATIONS Type of Action: MAKE A FINDING AND APPROVE REQUIRING BOARD ACTION Subject: CONFIRM EMERGENCY REPAIR OF THE SEWER LINE IN DEL OCEANO DRIVE IN THE UNINCORPORATED AREA OF THE COUNTY Submitted By: Initiating Dept./Div.: REVIEWED AND RECOMMENDED FOR BOARD ACTION: W. Brennan K. Alm General Ma ISSUE: Under the Public Contract Code, Board approval by at least a four -fifths vote and a finding based on substantial evidence set forth in the meeting minutes are needed to allow staff, in the event of an "emergency," to expend sums to repair or replace a District facility and procure the necessary equipment, services, and supplies without complying with the normal statutory competitive bidding requirements. RECOMMENDATION: Confirm by at least a four -fifths vote the emergency repair of the sewer line beginning in Del Oceano Drive and ending in Withers Avenue and make a finding, based on substantial evidence set forth in the minutes of the Board meeting, that the emergency will not permit a delay resulting from a competitive solicitation for bids and that the immediate repair or replacement work is necessary to respond to the emergency. FINANCIAL IMPACTS: Preliminary estimates are that this repair will cost approximately $50,000. ALTERNATIVES /CONSIDERATIONS: Complying with normal statutory bid requirements would delay the start of construction until late April/ early May. The urgency of this situation requires that the District directly contract with a horizontal directional drilling company. Delaying work may result in a sewer failure. BACKGROUND: The Collection System Operations Division has discovered a sewer main that needs emergency replacement. The sewer is located in an easement off Withers Avenue in the unincorporated area bounded by Pleasant Hill and Lafayette. It is estimated that several hundred feet of the sewer pipe between manhole 46D3M19 (located on Withers Avenue) and manhole 46D3M22 (located on Del Oceano) have failed and that the pipe is in danger of collapsing. Please refer to Attachment 1. The existing sewer is buried at a depth of 20 feet where the pipe has failed. The area drains to a tributary of Murderer's Creek where previous recent sanitary sewer overflows were C: \DOCUME-1 \cbatts \LOCALS -1 \Temp \EMERGE -1.DOC Page 1 of 3 3111/05 POSITION PAPER Board Meeting Date: March 17, 2005 subject: CONFIRM EMERGENCY REPAIR OF THE SEWER LINE IN DEL OCEANO DRIVE IN THE UNINCORPORATED AREA OF THE COUNTY reported directly to the Regional Water Quality Control Board. If the pipe should collapse, an overflow to Murderer's Creek could occur during a rain event. The Collection Systems Operations Division and the Engineering Department concur that it is necessary to immediately replace the pipe. The Public Contract Code defines an "emergency" as "a sudden, unexpected occurrence that poses a clear and imminent danger, requiring immediate action to prevent or mitigate the loss or impairment of life, health, property, or essential public services." Collection System Operations Division and the Engineering Department believe that the pipe failure constitutes just such an occurrence. The General Manager will report the status of the emergency repairs at each regularly scheduled Board meeting until the emergency no longer exists, or the repairs are completed, whichever occurs first. RECOMMENDED BOARD ACTION: Confirm by at least a four -fifths vote the emergency repair of the sewer line beginning in Del Oceano Drive and ending in Withers Avenue and make a finding, based on substantial evidence set forth in the minutes of the Board meeting, that the emergency will not permit a delay resulting from a competitive solicitation for bids and that the immediate repair or replacement work is necessary to respond to the emergency.
