a. Report on Biochemical Oxygen Demand (BOD) Study of Acme Fill Leachate
Treatment Plant Effluent and Changes to Permit Contract for Sewer Service
Charge (SSC) Billing Parameters
Mr. Skinner stated that staff conducted a BOD study to determine if accurate
BOD data could be generated for the treated Acme landfill leachate currently
being discharged to Central San's system. The study concluded that accurate
BOD data for the treated Acme landfill leachate can be generated without the
use of a Chemical Oxygen Demand (COD). Mr. Skinner stated that staff is
drafting the permit contract with modifications to replace the current COD
multiplier element, using the measured BOD for the reporting period.
Mr. Bailey advised the Committee that Acme requested that the contract be
retroactive to January 2018 should the Board approve the contract. Ms.
Gemmell stated that Central San has provisions existing in the Code that will
allow staff to process the contract retroactively.
Member Nejedly stated that he was content with retro-activating the contract
and Chair Causey agreed.
Mr. Skinner advised that staff would bring the revised contract for Board
approval at the June 7 Board meeting.
COMMITTEE ACTION: Reviewed and recommended Board approval.
4. Other Items
a. Receive update on Central San's Bioenergy Public-Private Partnership (P3)
Project
Ms. LaBella reviewed the update memo provided as part of the agenda
packet. She explained that the potential solids handling capacity limitation
identified in the Comprehensive Wastewater Master Plan was determined, as
part of the Pre-design for the Solids Handling Phase I Project, to not be an
issue either currently or into the future. Ms. LaBella added that because of this
new information, coupled with the need to invest in a more robust and
expensive P3 procurement process, staff terminated the P3 procurement with
the notification of the three participating vendors on May 1, 2018.
Chair Causey asked if the Capital Improvement Budget reflects this change in
direction and Mr. Bailey stated that it was modified, and the addition of
anaerobic digesters has been pushed outside the 20-year capital planning
window.
