BACKGROUND: Mr. Dan Clancy, an instructor at Diablo Valley College Class, requested to be placed on the Agenda for the meeting of June 7, 1973. Mr. Clancy explained that he is an instructor teaching a course in conservation at Diablo Valley College and that his class is currently studying and analyzing solid waste disposal and water pollution problems. Mr. Clancy indicated that his class of. approximately 20 students had previously toured the District's Treatment Plant and had visited various disposal sites for solid waste. After such exposure to the practical aspects of the problems on solid waste disposal and water pollution, the students in the class were very much interested in exploring and understanding the political process by which these problems are resolved. Accordingly, the purpose of this particular request for his attendance with the students is to observe and ask Members of the Board questions on the manner and procedure that they arrive at decisions necessary to resolve these problems. It is anticipated that the group plans to attend the meeting for approximately 30 minutes. Respectfully submitted, E. K. Davis Secretary EKD : j v Recommendation Approved: G. A.

A. Horstkotte, Jr., General Manager -Chief Engineer SUBJECT: MANDATORY CERTIFICATION OF TREATMENT PLANT PERSONNEL Enclosed is a copy of the proposed regulations relative to certification of Wastewater Treatment Plant Supervisors and Operators. It is anticipated that these regulations will be put into effect by 1974. These regulations will not have an immediate impact on the Sanitary District, as all of the present operators have achieved various levels of certification through the California Water Pollution Control Association's voluntary certification program. The State of California has recognized this program and all C.W.P.C.A. certified operators will receive equivalent State certification. This will enable the Sanitary District to be in com- pliance with the State regulations when they go into effect. This mandatory certification will, however, require changes in Sanitary District Plant personnel procedures, i.e., job classifications, probation periods, policies towards operator training. As soon as these changes in personnel procedures become more clearly defined, they will be presented to the Board for consideration. Respectfully submitted, David G.

NEW BUSINESS 8. June 1, 1973 June 7, 1973 MEMORANDUM FOR: The Honorable Board of Directors FROM: G. A. Horstkotte, Jr., General Manager -Chief Engineer SUBJECT: AUTHORIZATION OF $13,000.00 FOR MAINTENANCE BUILDING FOUNDATION AND LOADING DOCK WITH APPURTENANCES In June of 1972 the 80 foot main loading and storage dock located in the corporation yard northerly of the Maintenance Shop was dismantled. Years ago the dock was constructed of used timbers from construction pro- jects and it had deteriorated to the point that it had to be removed as a potential hazard. Over the last year we have realized what a great asset this dock had been to the Maintenance operation for handling material and loading of our trucks. We are proposing to reconstruct a 32 x 76 loading dock, as part of the building foundation, in the same area. At the August 3, 1972, Board Meeting, the Board authorized $15,000 for a storage facility. We are now proposing to combine a storage facility, 32 x 76 feet, on top of the loading dock. The estimated cost of installing the loading dock/foundation is $7,000. The appurtenances, such as electrical improvements, to conform to code, water lines, fire extinguishers, etc. will add another $6,000. The plans and details for the loading dock and storage facility are located on the display board in the Board Room for more detailed review. When we proposed the building in 1972, we were under the impression that we could obtain electrical services from the Maintenance Shop. When Fred Markey, Engineering Associate, designed the electrical layout, he discovered that there was not enough power in the Maintenance Shop to pro- vide electricity needed for the new proposed storage facility. A review of the Maintenance Shop electrical system with the City electrical inspector indicated that our Maintenance electrical system does not meet requirements of the electrical code. He estimated that it will cost approximately $1,000 to bring the Maintenance Shop up to Code. It will be necessary to take off from the main power panel within the main office building to correct the electrical situation within the Maintenance Shop and provide power to the new storage facility. We also propose to add one more yard light behind the Maintenance Shop for security reasons and correct the power deficiency to the light standard overlooking the aggregate bins. We estimate that the total electrical improvements will amount to $5,000. Water service is needed near the new storage facility for wash down and fire protection. It is estimated that the water line, fire extinguishers and other miscellaneous appurtenances would cost approximately $1,000. We request that the storage facility authorization of $15,000 be in- creased to $28,000 to include the loading dock foundation with appurtenances. We propose to receive informal bids for the major items of work and coordinate them. Respectfullyy, submitted, 01anager-Chief STKOTTE,JGeneEn eer GAH:kr VI. OLD BUSINESS 5.

Horstkotte, Jr., General Manager -Chief Engineer SUBJECT: Claim of $25.75 from Mrs. Carol Hout for sewer cleaning bill. 1. PROBLEM: Sewer stoppage at 895 Palmer Road, Walnut Creek, California 2. BACKGROUND: On Tuesday, February 27, 1973, Mrs. Hout called Roto-Rooter Sewer Service to open her sewer line, and the service man got roots out at the connection of main line. On March 7, 1973, the District received a call to check our main line. Upon arrival, the crew found the 10" line A plugged 75' upstream from MH 25 to MR 26. The stoppage consisted of roots and was cleared with no difficulty. There was no damage and the main line will be televised and repaired. 3. RECOMMENDATION: The bill for Roto-Rooter Service comes to $25.75 and since our main was plugged and there is an indication of roots growing from our main into the side sewer, I feel the claimant is entitled to a settlement.

Faa. —Five A portion of our property has been taxed as if it was -within your district. Ohio Equities Inc. has an option to purchase the property with the intention of developing a 900 unit recreational residential community centered around a golf course. In a recent interview you had with Mr. Dwight Pate of Ohio Equities, you informed him that no portion of our property lies within your district. This discovery* suggests that an error has been made and we are checking with the assessor. We hope that this situation can be resolved and that the annexation of the entire property can proceed as we had anticipated. Ohio Equities reports they had relied upon evidence in title reports and tax codes in their sewer planning and that you sent them a letter last August stating sufficient capacity was adjacent to the property for 1200 connections. The above situation may be of no consequence in your pro- ceedings and we hope that is the case. Please see our zoning application to the county for definitive details of the proposed development. About 165 acres will be developed in residential. and recreational buildings requiring sewer connections. The developers anticipate an absorpvian rate of about ten years. Because of the cluster nature cf most of the housing units, an ultimnate population of 2,500 to 2,300 peo�,�le is projected. Page 2 Mr. W . C . Dalton May 11, 1973 Deputy General Manager Central Contra Costa Sanitary District in tree event you annex our property we would expect a consequent commitment for the District that service will be available at that time. We understand that your annexation fee together with normal charges associated with service connections may be postponed until service is achieved. The annexed property, however, is subject to the district tax from the time of the first County tax roll after annexation --fiscal year 1974-75 in our case. Please contact Mr. Dwight Pate, Project Manager, at 2424 Fulton, Berkeley, California 94704, Telephone Number 845-1963, who will work directly with you in the course of your proceedings.

At that time the plans and specifications were signed by President Allan. The project was delayed at the request of the County and it has come under the California environmental Quality Act (ChQA) of 1970 and District Ordinance No. 89. The Hoard of Directors, on April 19, 1973, resolved to make a Negative Declaration covering this project. The Negative Declaration was filed with the County Clerk on April 26, 1973, and has received no protest. Having satisfied the CEQA of. 1970 and District Ordinance No. 89, we request that the Board take the following appropriate action: 1. Determine that District Seweriug Project 2100 will have no signi- ficant effect on the environment. 2. Re -approve District Sewering Project 2100 and authorize it to be advertised with bids being, received on June 7, 1973. The cost of construction is to be borne by Whitecliff homes as part of their watershed trunk obligation. The estimated total project cost is $162,000.00 and the District has collected $72,000.00 from a previous assess- ment district and $28,950.00 prepayment from Whitecliff Homes. The project will not be awarded until after Whitecliff Homes has established bank credit covering their share of the cost of the project. as recommended by Mr. Bohn, Cuunsel for th+: District. G. A.

Horstkotte, Jr., General Manager -Chief Engineer SUBJECT: POLICY FOR APPLICATION OF SPECIAL SERVICE CHARGES TO PUBLIC AGENCIES - ORDINANCE 86 1. PROBLEM: The manner of application of Special Service Charges to public agencies. 2. BACKGROUND: We assume that the service charge will continue to apply to commercial and privately owned properties including those with tax exemptions. The question is a policy to cover all public owned services and agencies. For purposes of this memo and policies, we can break the public agencies into the following categories. 1. Federal: A. Post Office, John Muir Monument B. Federally owned but locally administered Buchanan Field Housing Projects 2. State: A. Division of Highway Maintenance National Guard Armory 3. Cities: A. City offices, P.W.D. Corp. yard, Police, Recreational Facilities B. Theaters, restaurants, land, etc. leased to private operators, clubs or individuals. C. Space and land leased to other governmental units. 4. County: A. County offices, garage maintenance yards, etc., libraries, fire stations B. Properties leased to individuals, firms C. County Hospital, Juvenile Hall (contract) Dog Pound (contract) Buchanan Field Housing Authorities 5. Special Districts: A. School, fire, recreation B. BARTD, EBMUD, Flood Control -2- 3. RECOMMENDATION: Adopt a policy statement to guide staff in application of Special Service Charges to public agency properties. Suggested Policy Statement: 1. Federal and State laws and administrative regulations require that each user of a sewer system pay its proportionate share of the costs of said system, and this District has been informed that it must apply charges to users having exemptions from the District tax roll, and users demanding special services. 2. This District will avoid as long as permitted by Federal or State laws special charges to local public agencies serving the District and its taxpayers for normal governmental functions where such agencies apply no service charges against the District. Therefore, the following local governmental functions are exempted from the District Special Service Charge until further notice. 1. All regular governmental functions of cities and special districts within the boundaries of this District. 2. Special districts whose boundaries are approximately co -terminus to those of this District such as fire, school, and recreation districts and whose primary source of revenue is derived from the property tax levied against taxpayers of Central Contra Costa Sanitary District.

June 7, 1973 April 26, 1973 MEMORANDUM FOR: THE HONORABLE MEMBERS OF THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS VIA: G. A. Horstkotte, Jr., General Manager -Chief Engineer SUBJECT: Combination of Study Watershed 21 with Watershed No. 22 1. PROBLEM: A watershed plan including a unit charge has never been adopted for Study Watershed 21. 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. 2. BACKGROUND: Watershed Study area 21 was not previously established under a plan and charge set up because it had been blanketed mostly with an old local improvement district in the early days of the Sanitary District and has experienced very little development. Therefore, under the previous policy of not charging old local improvement districts new watershed trunk charges and very little development outside the local improvement district there was no point in establishing a charge. With the policy change in this matter in 1972 and the authorization of local improvement district proceedings for P.S.A. 49 occurring in Watershed 21, 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 has similar construction conditions to Watershed 22, a new de- tailed study does not seem necessary. 3. RECOMMENDATION: 1. Expand the boundaries of Watershed 22 to include Watershed Study area. 21. 2. Apply the Watershed 22 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 22 program. Respectfully submitted, �J WW..'C. Dalton Deputy General Manager -Chief Engineer WCD:ms Attach.
