Subject: Discuss CCTV Program modifications and/or Public Outreach enhancements
Summary
Beginning on July 1, 2017, the Costa Mesa Sanitary District (CMSD) began partnering with local plumbers to provide eligible residents
with a free closed circuit television (CCTV) video of their sewer lateral. CCTV video inspections allow plumbing professionals to place a
camera inside the sewer lateral to proactively determine the quality of the sewer lateral. A budget of $50,000 was established for this
program for each of the next two fiscal years. In addition, the District solicited eighty-two (82) contractors to participate in the program, of
which nineteen (19) were trained on the program and are currently listed as approved vendors.
For FY 2017-18 which ended June 30, the District expended $23,050 out of the budgeted $50,000 for the CCTV program. The District
received 161 applications for the fiscal year, 109 of which have been processed for payment. The Board has requested this item be
brought back for discussion to consider possible program changes/enhancements.
Recommendation
That the Board of Directors considers adopting the recommended changes to the program.
1. Change the name of the program to grab the attention and understanding of the residents. For example, "Sewer Inspection Rebate
Program", or SIRP, may be more marketable
2. Modify the program to provide reimbursement directly to the homeowner vs. the contractor
3. Modify the program to offer rebates up to $250 for a CCTV or up to $500 to install a two-way clean-out (not eligible for both)
4. Create online application form to ease process and help monitor available funds
5. Enhance social media presence by establishing "Nextdoor" account to directly target specific neighborhoods

8. Include mailer inside Mesa Water monthly billings to market program(cheaper than doing individual mailings ourselves)
Analysis
Based on the # of applications received, the peak periods of interest in the program occurred following advertisement in our quarterly
newsletter(Fall and Winter editions). Projecting the same level of interest all year round, the program would have still significantly
underachieved projected participation. Staff believes there are several deterrents that may be contributing to this including:
Potential Deterrents to CCTV Program
Lack of Understanding - To the average resident, the acronym CCTV does not have a meaning in correlation with home
ownership. Furthermore, many residents do not know what a "sewer lateral" is and/or that each property owner is responsible for
their own line. Often times the education takes place when an issue occurs which is what the District is trying to prevent.
Cumbersome Process - Currently the program requires approval prior to the contractor beginning work. Once approved, the
contractor may begin work and once complete seek reimbursement through the district. This requires multiple trips around town
for the contractor outside of performing the actual service, which may deter active contractor participation considering most
reimbursements are for only $200.
Knowledge Transfer/Cost Benefit - Staff believes that out of the 19 contractors who were trained to participate in our program,
most attendees were at the management/ownership level. Therefore, many technicians in the field are either not aware of the
program or are not familiar with how it works. In order to improve, expanded trainings would be required, further diminishing the
value of a potential $200 or $250 payment.
Legal Review
Not applicable
Environmental Review
Potentially modifying or enhancing the CCTV program will not result in direct or indirect physical changes to the environment and is not
considered a "project".
Financial Review
The CCTV program has a budget of $50,000 for FY 2018-19, as well as approximately $27,000 eligible to be carried over from the FY
2017-18 budget. Sufficient funds should be available to enhance the program amounts and/or fund the additional marketing.
Public Notice Process
Copies of thus report are on file and will be included with the entire agenda packet for the July 10, 2018 Board of Directors study session
meeting at District Headquarters and on the District website at www.cmsdca.gov
Alternative Actions
1. Direct staff to continue program as currently designed
2. Do not approve any of the recommendations
3. Approve fewer than the eight recommendations in this report.
4. Eliminate CCTV program and re-purpose funds

Subject: Revising Award Amount for the Alkaline Battery Recycling Program
Summary
On July 16, 2013, the Board of Directors directed staff to implement an Alkaline Battery Recycling Pilot Program that focused on
collecting used alkaline batteries from local schools. During the first year of the program (Fiscal Year 2013-2014), five schools
participated and collected 4,453.9 pounds of alkaline batteries. Every year since then, there has been a steady increase in schools
participating in the program and in the pounds of batteries collected. Last fiscal year, a total of eighteen schools participated and collected
a total of 8,720 pounds of batteries. Staff is recommending that the reward amounts be revisited, per direction from the Board of
Directors, below are a few options for restructuring the reward amounts.
Staff Recommendation
That the Board of Directors considers increasing the award amounts for fiscal year 18-19 Alkaline Battery Recycling Program.
Analysis
Last fiscal year, there was a significant increase in the number of participating schools and batteries collected. Staff believes that this is
due to an increased advertisement of the program through the District newsletter and increased coordination efforts with each school.
Staff is recommending that the award amounts be revisited as last fiscal year four schools collected over 1,000 pounds of batteries but
the reward amount is not reflective of their efforts. Currently, the award breakdown is:
Current Award Breakdown:
1st Place: $1,000
2nd Place: $600
3rd Place: $400
4th Place and on: $300
Staff is proposing a new reward structure that would be based on the school's collecting efforts. Below are a few proposals:
Option A:
1st Place: $1,300
2nd Place: $1,000
3rd Place: $800
Over 1,000 lbs: $500
500 to 999 lbs: $350

Environmental Review
The program establishes a convenient method for school children and their families dispose of batteries, ultimately preventing the
batteries from being illegally placed in the trash and making their way to landfills. As presented, the District’s Alkaline Battery Recycling
Program is not a disturbance to the environment directly or indirectly.
Financial Review
For Fiscal Year 2017-2018, the Battery Recycling program budget was $20,000. Below is the total cost breakdown for the past fiscal
year. The proposed new reward structures will allow for further growth in the program without increasing the budget or appropriation. For
comparative purposes, adopting either Option A or Option B would have increased the total award payouts by $1,250 or $1,350
respectively. Either option will still leave plenty of room in the budget for the program to grow, while providing more equity to reward
school participation.
Fundraiser Rewards $5,600.00
Disposal Costs ($0.76 x 8,720 lbs. of batteries)$6,627.20
Total Program Cost $12,227.20

Subject: 19th Street Pump Station Sanitary Sewer Overflow - Consider Waiving Invoice for $8,307.88
Summary
Construction improvements at the 19th Street Pump Station was performed by California Building Evaluation & Construction Inc. (CBEC),
and was completed on July 14, 2017, however, an error by the contractor consisting of drilling a storm drain pipe through an existing
CMSD 8” sewer main was never discovered until a sanitary sewer overflow (SSO) occurred at the pump station on February 5, 2018. A
picture of the storm drain pipe inside the sewer main is attached.
An investigation into the causes of the SSO revealed the contractor’s error. During the subsequent corrective work by CBEC, the City of
Costa Mesa changed their position and required “base material” to be used for filling the excavation instead of using the native dirt. The
contractor submitted an invoice to the District for $37,400.70 as the cost of using base material, but CMSD's general manager denied
paying the invoice because of contractor's negligence that caused damage to the District's sewer main and resultant SSO. CMSD
submitted an invoice to contractor for the cost incurred by the District for responding to the SSO and for removing the storm drain pipe
from the sewer main. The invoice, $8,307.88, is attached hereto.
Recommendation
That the Board of Directors considers waiving invoice issued to California Building Evaluation & Construction, Inc, in the amount of
$8,307.88 for the cost incurred by CMSD's for responding to the sanitary sewer overflow that occurred on February 5, 2018 and for
removing portion of a storm drain pipe from the sewer main.
Analysis
Background
The background is CBEC had a construction contract with the District to construct various pump station improvements, one of which was
a 6” storm drain from the fenced in pump station area, under City of Costa Mesa owned sidewalk, to an existing storm drain inlet
structure. The sidewalk and storm drain structure are owned by the City of Costa Mesa as part of Marina View Park.
The plans for the storm drain show the proposed 6” storm drain crossing over the existing CMSD 8” VCP sewer main and joining the
existing storm drain inlet. Proposed elevations of both the storm drain and sewer main are shown at the point these two lines cross each

other. Instead of following the elevations on the plan, CBEC chose to install the storm drain by horizontally drilling the storm drain without
first checking the elevation of the existing sewer main.
As it turns out, the storm drain was drilled through the sewer main. Months later, the sewer main backed up and wastewater exited the
sewer system and created a small ponding area on the ground. The District cleaned up the sewer spill and hired a contractor to
robotically cut out the storm drain pipe that was inside the sewer main to prevent additional sewer overflows. Because of the sewer spill,
the District was required to report the sewer spill to the state, using the California Integrated Water Quality System (CIWQS). In addition,
the SSO was the first spill in 441 consecutive days, the longest consecutive days without an SSO since CMSD began tracking SSOs in
1999. The District followed its usual protocol and billed CBEC, the responsible party, for all costs related to the spill, including the costs to
clean up the sewer spill, the cost to cut out the storm drain, and the cost to report the spill on the CIWQS system. The total charge is
$8,307.88.
Corrective Work
Based on the above, the District requested CBEC return to the site and re-install the storm drain and repair the sewer main. A pre-
construction meeting was held and a city inspector attended the meeting. In the pre-construction meeting, the city stated the new city
sidewalk should be 6” thick un-reinforced concrete (no rebar) installed on compacted native soil, implying no base material was required
below the concrete sidewalk. The corrective work occurred in May 2018.
During the corrective work by CBEC, a city inspector called and informed the District that the area under the sidewalk should have full
depth base material and not native soil. Based on this requirement, CBEC has submitted an invoice for $37,400.70 for the labor, material,
and equipment costs of installing the base material. CBEC has clarified that no other costs are included in this sum, only base material.
CBEC is stating the city changed their position from compacted dirt under the sidewalk to its typical pipeline installation requirement of
using base material for all parts of backfilling. The general manager denied paying CBEC invoice because if the work was performed in
accordance to the plans, the SSO would not have occurred, thus the City would not have required a change in the base material.
CBEC is accepting responsibility for the workmanship that caused the SSO and has agreed to waive their invoice in the amount of
$37,400.70. However, CBEC is requesting CMSD to do the same by waiving our invoice in the amount of $8,307.88. The Board has
three options to consider. They are:
1. Waive the full amount
2. Waive a portion of the invoice. For instance, the Board could require payment for removing the storm drain pipe out of the sewer
main. Immediately after learning about the storm drain pipe, staff hired a contractor, Municipal Underground Services, to remove the pipe
to prevent another SSO. The cost to remove the storm drain pipe was #2,850.00.
3. Deny waiving the invoice and require CBEC to make full payment.
Legal Review
District Counsel has reviewed this report and will be at the study session to provide comment both in open and closed session.
Environmental Review
The electrical upgrade and general facelift is categorically exempt under the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) (Public
Resources Code Section 21000 et. seq.) under Section 15301 as a “Class 1” “minor alteration of existing public or private structures”, as
further described in Section (b) as “Existing facilities of both investor and publicly-owned utilities used to provide .... sewerage ...”.
Financial Review
Waiving the full invoice amount will not have a fiscal impact on CMSD; however, it has been past practice that CMSD tries to recoup
unplanned expenditures when sanitary sewer overflows are caused by another party.
