VI. OLD BUSINESS
1. ANNEXATION OF LARWIN DEVELOPMENT
Mr. Horstkotte, General Manager -Chief Engineer, stated that there was
neither economic or engineering justification for pump stations to be located
on both the Bishop Ranch and Larwin Development in order to service both
areas.
A general discussion followed with Mr. George Gordon and Mr. Sidney
Lippow,both representing Western Electric Corporation (Bishop Ranch
Development), stating that a major concern of Western Electric Corporation
was that nothing be done by the District Board which might impede Western
Electric's formation of a local assessment district for the Bishop Ranch
development. They indicated that current plans are to go to bid by March 1,
1974, for the facilities for the Western Electric property.
Mr. James McKeehan and Mr. Rod Stevenson, representing Larwin Development,
stated that Larwin had retained Brown and Caldwell for the engineering design
of its pump station. They explained that Larwin's time schedule for its
project would be compressed so as not to impede the Bishop Ranch project.
After the discussion, which included comments by Mr. Phil Phillips, Valley
Community Services District, it was the consensus of the Board that the
District not adopt a formal position regarding the Larwin application to the
Local Agency Formation Commission for detachment from VCSD and annexation to
the District. Item continued.

VIII. REPORTS
1. GENERAL MANAGER -CHIEF ENGINEER
Mr. Horstkotte reported that Brown and Caldwell was proposing a test
program for the Stage 5B plant enlargement which would explore alternatives
for removing solids in the second stage centrifugation, and thereby reduce
energy requirements. Cost of the test program would approximate $17,000.00.
In addition to test program, Mr. Horstkotte stated that he would like Brown
and Caldwell to prepare a report on energy requirements for alternative
modes of operation for the Water Reclamation Plant. Mr. Horstkotte stated
that the cost for this study would approximate $3,000.00. For both projects,
the cost would be about $20,000.00, 87-1/2% of which would be recoverable
from grant funds.
After discussion, it was the consensus of the Board that Brown and Caldwell
proceed with the test program for Stage 5B and the study on energy requirements.
Mr. Horstkotte reported that as a result of activities by Urich Oil
Company which are in proximity to the District's outflall line, it would be
necessary to expand the scope of the quarterly outfall inspections to include
pilings and docks. Additional cost involved is estimated at $3,000.00.
Mr. Horstkotte reported that construction progress on the Water
Reclamation Facility has been hampered by a carpenters' strike. He stated

Dear Mr. Horstkotte:
(415) 981-5751
At your board meeting of December 13, 1973 we presented to you our
financing recommendations for your district's water pollution control
and reclamation facilities. We suggest that this report- completes the
work intended under Part II, "Initial Program Study and Financing Plant',
of our agreement, dated September 7, 1972.
We remain available for continuous consultation services as stipulated
under Parts III and IV of the agreement. We look forward to assisting
the district with its ongoing financing plan needs, and suggest at least
quarterly review of the district's cash requirements.
We therefore recommend that the unexpended balance of $4, 484.16
from Part II be carried forward to cover fees for continuing consulta-
tion.
If your board concurs, we will not require a formal amendment to the
agreement, and will consider a letter from an appropriate official as
sufficient acceptance of our recommendations.

FROM: G. A. Horstkotte, Jr., General Manager -Chief Engineer
SUBJECT: AUTHORIZE $75,000 FOR STAGE 5A PHASE II WATER RECLAMATION
1112,NT, DISTRICT ACTIVITIES
PROBLEM: In order to recover 87.5% of the District's activities in
conjunction with Bechtel's contract under the grant program, we will need
to establish a new account.
BACKGROUND: Our previous account was "Bechtel Treatment Plant Expansion
173 (2253)", which had an authorization of $62,125., and has a balance
of $1,919.81 as of December 31, 1973. Under the grant program, we have
applied for 87.5% recovery on $60,021.74. (Soil investigation $25,000
and the balance District salaries, Engineering, establish grid, locate
existing and proposed facilities, soil data, contour map, as -built plans,
map, prints, records, etc.)
It is essential we set up a new drawing account for District activity in
order to apply for recovery under the grant program. This new account
should cover our final design and may carry us into the construction period.
We need to acquire right of way across six additional parcels for the Bechtel
Project between the District Treatment Plant property and the 48-inch
connecting water line of Contra Costa County Water District. We need right
of way for the 42-inch Water Reclamation Line and/or a separate right of way
for a permanent maintenance road for the use of the Sanitary District Contractor
and the Sanitary and Water Districts. We have been advised by the Santa Fe
Railroad that they will require the installation of flashing light signals
at an estimated cost of $20,000. We also have to cross two pipeline easements
which may require protection for their pipes. These are some of the initial
right of way negotiations we are faced with at the present time.

-color front cover with the material being varityped and bound with
a plastic strip binder. If we figure one printing of 500 or more copies,
the first hundred copies would cost $500. Any additional copies in
hundred lot increments, using the initial print setup, is estimated to
cost $100 each. Thus, the proposed 500 report books would cost the
District $900.
I would seriously question before starting the project whether 500
copies are sufficient at this time because of the high cost of the
initial printing setup.
