Call Meeting to Order Chair Nejedly called the meeting to order at 3:00 p.m. 2. Public Comments None. 3. Review proposal to consider entering into lease agreements for portions of the parcel located at 4737 Imhoff Place, Martinez COMMITTEE ACTION: Reviewed and recommended the Board authorize staff to enter into the lease agreements. 4. Consider entering into proposed Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) for Moraga Country Club Scalping Plant Real Estate, Environmental & Planning Committee December 9, 2014 Page 2 The Committee discussed possible scalping plants at the Roundhill Country Club in Alamo and Boundary Oak Golf Course in Walnut Creek, as well as neighboring properties, for further possible expansion of recycled water service. Staff will look into whether these golf courses are serviced by Contra Costa Water District (CCWD) or East Bay Municipal Utility District (EBMUD). COMMITTEE ACTION: Recommended that staff proceed with the MOU. 5. Receive update on potential collaboration with East Bay Municipal Utility District (EBMUD) regarding the old Shell Oil Pipeline that runs through Lafayette to Moraga Provisional Associate Engineer Melody LaBella provided a brief history on the District's 1994 purchase of a 15 -mile segment of this abandoned jet fuel pipeline, which was originally constructed to transfer jet fuel from Shell Oil Refinery in Martinez to the Oakland Airport. The District purchased the segment that runs from Martinez to the Contra Costa - Alameda County Border, through the Lamorinda area, with the vision of distributing recycled water in EBMUD's service area. Ms. LaBella explained that after conducting several studies back in the late 1990s, it was found that the cost to rehabilitate the line for the distribution of recycled water was expensive (estimated at approximately $20M back in 2005), while demand for irrigation water in that area has declined with the removal of the golf course at the Gateway development and the high schools in the area converting to artificial tun, so EBMUD elected not to move forward with the project. General Manager Roger Bailey mentioned that in his recent conversation with EBMUD General Manager Alex Coate, Mr. Coate was not aware of any EBMUD interest in pursuing this project. Chair Nejedly suggested that staff keep the pipeline for possible future use. (The pipeline was purchased from Shell years ago for $1.) The Committee recommended that staff and possibly Chair Nejedly follow up with John Coleman, Director at EBMUD, on interest he may have expressed in a project. COMMITTEE ACTION: Received the update and recommended that staff pursue interest from EBMUD in a project, if there is any. *6. Receive update on Collection System Master Plan Provisional Deputy General Manager/ Director of Engineering Jean -Marc Petit distributed a project timeline (attached) for the production of the Comprehensive Collection System Master Plan (CSMP), noting that Phase 4 (the CSMP Report) is expected to be completed sooner than April -June 2017, in response to desire expressed by Board Members to accelerate the timing. Mr. Petit also reported that staff will be bringing a Position Paper to the Board via the Engineering & Operations Committee requesting award of a contract for flow Real Estate, Environmental & Planning Committee December 9, 2014 Page 3 monitoring. The study will contribute to the implementation of a dynamic hydraulic model, which is key to completing the CSMP. He reiterated that staff will try to accelerate the completion of the CSMP, as there is desire from Board Members to have data validating the Engineering Department's assumptions (i.e.; future projects to be defined and identified in the future 10 -20 years CIP by the CSMP) during the rate - setting discussion. Member McGill stated that he agreed that there is a need for the CSMP and for it to support staff's recommendations; however, he stated that he did not second guess staffs assumptions. Chair Nejedly commented that he did not require the level of information that was presented to him on this topic. COMMITTEE ACTION: Received the update. 7. Receive update on East Bay Leadership Council (EBLC)'s November Water Task Force Meeting's Presentation by Contra Costa Water District (CCWD) on Bay Area Water Interties Ms. LaBella discussed the presentation by CCWD on existing and potential future interties in the Bay Area that are being studied by a consortium of Bay Area agencies to enhance the regional water supply reliability.
