MEMORANDUM FOR: THE HONORABLE MEMBERS OF THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS
VIA: G. A. Horstkotte, Jr. - General Manager -Chief Engineer
SUBJECT: AUTHORIZATION FOR $2,000.00 FOR DISTRICT SEWERING
PROJECTS 736 and 859, BUCHANAN FIELD PUMPING STATIONS
MODIFICATION STUDY
1. BACKGROUND: The Buchanan Field Airport sewer system was taken over
by the Sanitary District in an agreement in 1972. This system contained
two lift pumping stations that are near capacity. Presently under con-
struction there is a 300 room motel and convention center scheduled to
open in April, 1973 which will exceed the capacity of these pumping
stations. The stations are rated at 75 gpm with no emergency standby.
With this new development, we anticipate the load would increase to
180 gpm. It is obvious that these two stations have to be replaced
or rebuilt as soon as possible to avoid flooding.
2. RECOMMENDATION: Approval: $1,000.00 for District Sewering Project
736 Airport PS1 and $1,000.00 for District Sewering Project 859 Airport
PS2.

MEMORANDUM FOR.: THE HONORABLE MEMBERS OF THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS
VIA: G. A. Horstkotte, Jr., General Manager -Chief Engineer
SUBJECT: Combination of Study Watershed XXX with Watershed No. 23
1. PROBLEM: A watershed plan including a unit charge has never been
adopted for Study Watershed XXX. A new trunk paralleling the old trunk
sewer is needed and there are still undeveloped properties within the
watershed area which only paid very nominal assessment charges as rural
properties in early local improvement districts. The new trunk for
watershed XXX lies mostly within Watershed 23.
2. BACKGROUND: Watershed Study area XXX was not previously established
under a plan and charge set up because it had been blanketed with old
local improvement districts in the early days of the Sanitary District
and was considered sewered. Therefore, under the previous policy of not
charging old local improvement districts new watershed trunk charges,
there was no point in establishing a charge. With the policy change
in this matter in 1972 and the densification occurring in Watershed XXX,
accumulation of funds for paralleling the old trunk in segments (such
as Rahn Court) is now feasible. However, since this area is adjacent
to and outfalls through Watershed 23, a new detailed study does not
seem necessary.
3. RECOMMENDATION:
1. Expand the boundaries of Watershed 23 to include Watershed Study
area XXX.
2. Apply the Watershed 23 watershed trunk charges ($200 per unit)
to all new connections after giving credit for local improvement district
assessments paid.
3. Include the needed trunk facilities in the Watershed 23 program.

SUBJECT: Background Information on Proposed New Type Garbage Service
for Residential Customers, Orinda/Moraga Disposal Service, Inc.
1. BACKGROUND:
In mid -January a Mr. John Blackburn called my office and discussed with me
for a period exceeding two and a half hours his thoughts and feelings concerning
curbside garbage service for residential customers of Orinda/Moraga. Mr. Blackburn
who works for an investment house in San Francisco, is in his early thirties and
a most dedicated individual. He is personally convinced that garbage rates are
too high and that by utilizing curbside service they could be significantly re-
duced. We discussed the matter at some length with my providing him background
information on how financial and operational reports are analyzed and the prob-
lems that face the franchisees. At this first meeting Mr. Blackburn indicated
that he would be preparing on behalf of the Orinda Association a questionnaire
to be mailed to all residential customers either by the District or its franchisee
asking individual customers to state their preference on type of service.
Attached is a copy of Mr. Blackburn's proposed questionnaire.
2. COMMENTS:
In conversation with Mr. Blackburn this date he indicated that the attached
questionnaire would be formally presented to the Orinda Association at its meet-
ing on Tuesday, February 13, 1973, the proposal of which is to receive a vote
of approval from the Association on the type of approach Mr. Blackburn has
chosen and to continue to pursue this matter. As Mr. Blackburn will be out of
town another individual will make the presentation. In the interim and after
discussion with me, Mr. Blackburn will be in contact with management of Orinda/
Moraga Disposal Service in an effort to obtain operational and financial data
necessary to justify the rates which he suggests for the new type curb service.
Fundamentally, Mr. Blackburn has made an assumption that rates for garbage can
be lowered and that cost of operations for franchisees, in particular Orinda/
Moraga, are excessive due to inefficiency and he is dedicated to prove his
basic assumption.
