Provisional Associate Engineer Melody LaBella stated that General Manager Roger
Bailey's letters to last year's Pollution Prevention (P2) Award nominees went out on
February 19, 2015 to explain the reason for not holding the Awards Program in 2014.
She stated that staff has been investigating different options for a revamped P2
Awards Program. Since the Committee members had previously requested that staff
consider opportunities to partner with Sustainable Contra Costa, Ms. LaBella
explained that she'd recently met with the Executive Director Tina Neuhausel, and
that Ms. Neuhausel was receptive to the idea of partnering with Central San.
Member McGill supported the idea of partnering with Sustainable Contra Costa and

pursuing other agency partners, and expressed interest in receiving a specific
recommendation from staff. Chair Pilecki requested a business plan with economic
data.
COMMITTEE ACTION: Received update and advised staff to return with more
specifics.
4. Receive update on billboards on Kiewit property
Senior Right of Way Agent Rick Hernandez stated that he met with Senior County
Planner Ruben Hernandez, and was told that Contra Costa County staff specifically
opposed the billboard proposed by the property across from Mountain View Sanitary
District (Traverso Property) and would most likely oppose any billboard on District
property along the Highway 4 and 680 corridors. However, the Board of Supervisors
had approved the project. Mr. Hernandez asked if staff should continue moving
forward with the Request for Proposal (RFP). General Manager Roger Bailey
explained that the Board had previously given direction for this item, so staff will need
to inform the Board of this information before continuing.
Chair Pilecki and Member McGill agreed to make an announcement to the Board
during their report out, with a recommendation to discontinue the RFP.
COMMITTEE ACTION: Received the update, and will make recommendation to
full Board that the pending RFP be discontinued.
5. Standing Items
a. Receive update on the Comprehensive Wastewater Master Plan (CWMP)
Director of Engineering Jean -Marc Petit stated that District received four
responses to its Request for Qualifications (RFQ) related to the CWMP. Staff
is in the process of reviewing the statements of qualifications from the four
teams. The qualified teams will receive a request for proposal.
COMMITTEE ACTION: Received the update.
b. Receive update on scope of request for proposal (RFP) on possible
opportunities for wholesaling recycled water
Mr. Petit referred to the memorandum included in the Committee agenda
packet.
Member McGill reminded staff of his goal for zero discharge. Chair Pilecki
cautioned about the expense to oversize treatment facilities to handle wet
weather flows and requested that staff contact potential users identified

through this work to make sure they would actually be willing to take our

7. Suggestions for future agenda items
Mr. Petit stated that staff has been working on the Diablo Country Club's (DCC)
proposal for a satellite recycled water facility that would scalp wastewater from
Central San's wastewater collection system and treat it on -site to provide
recycled water for irrigating their golf course, then return the process solids to
our collection system. Mr. Petit explained that staff has been working to
evaluate and resolve concerns with the proposed facility, and that a new
Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) proposed by the DCC's consultant
raises several policy issues that the Board will need to consider. Mr. Petit will
seek input on this project from the Committee at the next meeting.
Member McGill suggested holding a future Committee meeting at West County
Wastewater District to see their solar arrays and ponds facilities.
Member McGill requested an update on outreach. (NOTE: Outreach matters fall
within purview of the Administration Committee)
8. Adjournment — at 3:48 p.m.
