Peaceful Creator,
Everyone filling the position as a leader in government, independent of stature, whether that of elected
Director or dedicated Staff member, knows the ultimate test of one's values, morals and credibility is as a
public servant. One of our guiding goals as we meet this evening is to accomplish the greatest good for
the largest number of people. We ask for Your unwavering guidance to live up to the honors You have
given us to make those right decisions for our community — the people we serve.
Help us today to build wisely on the foundation our predecessors established. Thank You for Your gifts of
consciousness, ethics and a deep sense of purpose as we address the subjects at hand.
Lastly, we ask You to watch over those defending our freedoms near and far.
In Your Name
Amen

MINUTES OF SEWER SYSTEM COMMITTEE MEETING
APRIL 9, 2008
CALL TO ORDER Board members of the Costa Mesa Sanitary
District met in Committee session on April 9,
2008, at 10:30 a.m. at 628 W. 19th Street, Costa
Mesa.
Director Monahan called the meeting to order at
10:30 a.m.
DIRECTORS PRESENT: Gary Monahan; Bob Ooten; Art Perry;
DIRECTORS ABSENT: Jim Ferryman
STAFF PRESENT: Robin B. Harriers, Manager /District Engineer;
Thomas Fauth,, Assistant Manager; Joan Revak,
Board Secretary/District Clerk /Program
Manager; Karl Dulake, Maintenance Supervisor;
Sherry Kallab, Management Analyst; Paul
Guzman, Inspector; Joe Limon, Inspector;
Debbie Bjornson, Permit Processing Specialist;
Janel Jackson, Office Specialist II;
OTHERS PRESENT: None
MONTHLY SPILL STATISTICS
Mr. Fauth presented the overall SSO statistics for 2008 adding one public spill and two
private spills — grease caused two SSOs, tree roots caused three SSO and Other issues
such as debris blockage and pump station failures caused three SSOs. Mr. Fauth
reported the year -to -date total is 118 gallons lost from the public sewer system to the
environment. Data showed zero SSOs have occurred in areas National Plant Services,
Inc. (NPSI), has cleaned District main lines, excluding Hotspots. Telemetry continues to
perform satisfactorily. The Committee also reviewed the "CMSD Pump Station Retention
Times — Wastewater Level Sensors Status" chart noting 11 Pump stations have been
upgrades to the pressure sensor, one is in process at Irvine Pump,Station and the next
three stations to upgrade are the Corporation Yard, Westbluff and Canyon Pump
Stations.

BACKCHARGES STATUS
The Committee reviewed the "CMSD Sanitary Sewer Overflow Backcharges"
spreadsheet, noting the addition of four new backcharges. Every letter includes CMSD
General Counsel guideline statements and addressees are given 30 days to respond.
$27,688.73 has been received to date while $9,900.33 remains outstanding, including
new letters totaling nearly $5,000.00. Staff will coordinate with the SCE Utilities
Coordination Meeting representative concerning collecting $1702.10 from SCE to
recover repair costs for the damage to the District HO lateral line in the ROW from the
SCE ventilation vault. Royal Oak Property Services has not paid their invoice totaling
$4,722.02 for two spill services on October 5 and October 6, 2007 — the Board reviewed
the case during the Board hearing held February 28, 2008.
RECENT DEVELOPMENTS
The Committee reviewed the following three recent articles relating to tree roots and
sewer systems:
1. 3- 15 -08: "Tree disputes take root in Rossmoor";
2. 3- 24 -08: "City settles claim for $38,900
3. 3- 25 -08: "Sewage spills prompt new bill ".
PROJECT #168 IRVINE PUMPING STATION RELOCATION - UPDATE
ON CONSTRUCTION
Mr. Harriers and Mr. Guzman updated the committee on the pumping station
construction and reviewed progress photographs. Upon completion of the District's
construction, the County of Orange will be widening Irvine Avenue from Bristol Street to
University Drive. The Vadnais Corp shoring method caused the parking lot asphalt to fail
and it remains coned off for parking — one large asphalt crack/separation is
approximately three inches wide. Paul Guzman stated the District plans to test both new
pumps simultaneously upon installation. The sidewalk and curb were poured, but will
have to be replaced when the County of Orange completes the widening of the Irvine
Ave area. The Committee reviewed the Automatic Pit Evacuator (APE) technology to be
installed in the Irvine Pump Station as a more economical alternative to chemical and
biological wastewater treatment to reduce odors. The stainless steel APE is estimated to
cost $9,000 and will reach a breakeven point in less than seven months compared to the
cost of chemicals currently invoiced at $1400 per month for South Coast Plaza. The APE
is also much safer for maintenance crews to use to aerate the wastewater than using
H2O2.

SDRMA CLAIMS
Two claims with SDRMA are in process. Mr. Fauth reported Staff submitted the $6,000
claim to SDRMA on April 8, 2008 for missing CMSD equipment removed from the
Orange County Fairgrounds storage site. The Southern California Santiago fires caused
a 100% loss of District equipment stored at the JIMNI SYSTEMS site in Irvine. Staff
finalized the equipment schedule and equipment replacement value (approximately
$255,000.00) for submittal to SDRMA on April 10, 2008.
SEWER LATERAL ASSISTANCE PROGRAM
The application notes "CMSD will contribute up to 50% of the residents' costs in four
areas, up to a maximum of $1,800 per parcel ". The program encourages residents to
maintain (clean and CCTV) their laterals on a regular basis to achieve zero SSOs. The
Lateral Assistance program remains in the 5 -Year Capital Improvement Program for FY
2007 -08 Through FY 2011 -12 at a level $100,000 per FY. The Committee is considering
optional funding to recommend increasing the annual residential limit and to extend the
offer to small businesses. Staff noted CMSD has received 98 applications of which 72
are complete at a cost of $82,778.33 for residential assistance. Mr. Hamers introduced a
lateral liner "No Fee Permit" process to ensure local licensed contractors (Class A
General Engineering Contractor and Class C42 Sanitation System Contractor) and
licensed plumbers (Class C36) have been given guidance to provide before and after
CCTV to enable CMSD Staff to validate need, charges and repairs.
POTENTIAL TRANSFER OF SEWER LINES FROM OCSD TO CMSD
Staff noted there are six recommended sewer line transfers from OCSD to CMSD in
process. Before acceptance, OCSD would need to clean and CCTV the lines and
rehabilitate any deficiencies. The yearly CMSD revenue is estimated to be approximately
$163,000.
CMSD PROJECT #101 - WESTSIDE PUMP STATION ABANDONMENT
Status is unchanged. OCSD may be able to begin construction of the regional facility as
early as 2010. Director Ooten stated OCSD has included the costs in the OCSD multi-
year budget. The two options OCSD costed are as follows:
1. Option 1: $9.0 M for a gravity flow system, or
2. Option 2: $6.6 M to rebuild the City of Newport Beach Pump Station and the
force main.

PROJECT #129 BRISTOL STREET SEWER
CMSD, Orange County Development Agency (OCDA) and the City of Newport Beach
each signed the three -party agreement to expand sewer facilities to serve the rezoned
East Santa Ana Heights area. OCDA will pay CMSD for services to design and construct
the needed sewer.
PROJECT #175 OCSD GRANT - TELEVISING CMSD SEWER LINES
A grant amendment states the CMSD will have the televising completed by June 2009.
Director Ooten suggested the grant could be expanded to include repairs as has been
the case with Midway City Sanitary District. Televising is approximately 80% complete
and National Plant Services, Inc. is cleaning and performing CCTV work in residential
areas.
DISTRICT YARD UPDATE AND SEWER MAINTENANCE CREW WORK
PLAN
The site is envisioned as having a 5,166 SF building on an 18,200 SF lot. The District
closed escrow on December 19, 2007. The District is striving for a "Gold" standard green
facility, the first in Costa Mesa. SCE Representative Harry Pemberton is scheduled to
attend the next Green Design Team meeting on April 18, 2008 and offers free services to
assist in the design of the District Yard. Staff hired two new sewer system maintenance
workers. Steve Henson began on February 6, 2008 and Joel Ortiz started on March 3,
2008. Both crewmen are earning OJT and providing Hotspot cleaning services using
District equipment. The overgrown District Yard vacant lot foliage was removed, tilled
and sprayed with herbicide in early March 2008 to limit future growth while design and
construction documents are under development. Staff received a TRIMCO proposal to
provide bi- monthly service to the vacant lot beginning on May 1, 2008 at a cost of $85.00
per service. The District Assistant Manager, Maintenance Supervisor and Maintenance
Workers are scheduled to earn CWEA training credit at the July 7, 2008 ,11th Collections

Minutes of HR Meeting
April 10, 2006
Page 2 •
Ms. Kallab reported there are sufficient funds in the budget to fund this increase and
retroactive payments. Mr. Davis suggested this be handled differently in the future by
having a designated Staff person keep on top of issues of employee benefits rather
than waiting until after the City institutes an increase.
Ms. Revak additionally suggested the flexible benefit account be revisited in
September 2008 when medical increases by the various providers, effective January
2009, are made available to the District. The City of Costa Mesa will also be revisiting
the potential increase in September 2008.
A request for Board of Directors approval of the increase and retroactive payment will
be on the agenda for the April 21, 2008 Board Meeting.
CaIPERS Issues
Mr. Fauth expanded on his report at the March 19, 2008 HR meeting while explaining
a possible change in CalPERS retirement benefits for CMSD employees, similar to
what the City of Costa Mesa will put into effect on or about October 1, 2008. Presently
the benefit is 2% @ 55 and the formula will be 2.5% @ 55 as negotiated between the
City and the Employee Association.
A discussion was held on various scenarios of the benefits to individual employees by
implementing 2.5% @ 55 or 2.7% @ 55 and the cost to the District/Employee.
Currently the District pays the District portion as well as the employee portion of the
CalPERS retirement plan.
Mr. Fauth presented a CalPERS Retirement Benefits Survey showing various
City /Agency plans as well as charts displaying percentage of final compensation for
2% @ 55, 2.5% at 55, 2.7% @ 55 and 3% @60.
As two employees were not present at the meeting, Mr. Hamers suggested another
meeting on the CalPERS Retirement Benefit and the meeting is scheduled for
Monday, April 14, 2008 at 9:00 a.m. Mr. Hamers stated he is in favor of 2.7 @ 55 with
Mr. Davis adjusting the budget as necessary. Mr. Hamers stated the agency trend is
towards 2.7% @ 55 and by adopting this formula the CMSD employees will be
rewarded for their outstanding work and the District will be positioned to attract
talented individuals in the future.
It was also agreed to place the item on the CMSD Agenda for the Board of Directors
meeting on April 21, 2008.
The meeting was adjourned at 11:55 a.m.

PROJECT STATUS REPORT
April 2008
' Proiect 1 1 1 21 00 -1 01 West Side Pumping Station Abandonment
Directors Ferryman and Ooten along with Manager /District Engineer Rob Hamers,
Assistant Manager Tom Fauth and Inspector Paul Guzman met with OCSD General
Manager Jim Ruth and executive engineering staff on March 29, 2007 to discuss
OCSD's participation in the project. It was agreed that the two agencies will work
together to determine an approximate project cost for a regional facility and then meet
again to discuss the feasibility. The cost estimate has been prepared and is being
considered by both agencies. The CMSD updated its costs of the local sewer lines
and confirmed the ability to fund the projects. A letter was sent to OCSD requesting
the regional facility become a formal OCSD project and the letter was favorably
received.
Proiect 1112100-129 Bristol Street Sewer
The County of Orange plans on widening Irvine Avenue from Bristol Street to
University Drive, which will cause relocation of the CMSD Irvine Pumping Station. The
District can upgrade the station to a level able to serve the redevelopment of the area.
The upgrade alleviates the need for the Bristol Street Pump Station and the project
can be reduced to construction of a new gravity sewer only. These findings were
submitted to the Orange County Development Agency (OCDA) and as requested the
Sanitary District prepared a new three party agreement reflecting these findings. The
agreement has been signed by the Sanitary District, the City of Newport Beach, and
OCDA. The design phase is underway.
Proiect 1112100-135 Reconstructing Force Main for Elden Pumping Station (Phase II)
Construction was completed in 1995 and the State Department of General Services
(DGS) transmitted the sewer easement. The easement has been recorded and
distributed to all parties.
Proiect 1112100-159 Televising Sewer Lines
Areas are televised as needed, particularly for the fats, oils, and grease (FOG)
program.
Proiect 1112100-168 Irvine Pumping Station Relocation
Bid opening was June 4, 2007, and the Board awarded the construction contract to
Vadnais Corporation. Construction is approximately 85% complete.

0 TO: Costa Mesa Sanitary District Board of Directors
FROM: Ron Shef, Ordinance Enforcement Officer
DATE: April 14, 2008
SUBJECT: ORDINANCE ENFORCEMENT SUMMARY REPORT
This report covers the monthly period of March 2008. Complaints received from
resident call -ins were checked and added to the attached updated Excel report.
Those residents receiving follow up notices receive letters generated by Staff,
when little or no action is seen at the address in question. When a residence, on
collection day, is noticed to have separate bags of recyclables at the curb, every
effort is made by the Enforcement Officer to communicate with the resident as to
what to do with those bags of newspapers, etc. Residents actually admit that
they leave them at the curb for specific scavengers who drive the district on trash
day! The Enforcement Officer is currently monitoring the CR &R drivers on their
routes and evaluating specific requirements relative to the collection of the solid
waste. Examples, such as, no trash left on street, lid closed after empting, truck
identification and more are noted. This evaluation process, finding the trucks and
monitoring them is very time consuming but necessary for efficiency.

Memorandum
... an Independent Specia[Distda
To: Board of Directors
From: Robin B. Harriers. Manage Engineer
gmeer
Date: April 15, 2008
Subject: CMSD Employee's CaIPERS Retirement Program Upgrade
INTRODUCTION: The Costa Mesa Sanitary District (CMSD) established the
District's employee's CalPERS Retirement Program to mirror the City of Costa
Mesa's existing program per Board direction and authorization in July 2004 when
the District separated from the City. The subject is on the agenda`for "the April 21,
2008 regular, meeting for;discussion ;;consideration of new program parameters,
and as a possible closed session if the Board so desires.
BACKGROUND: The District began complete independent operations from the City
of Costa Mesa on July 1, 2004 with the acquisition 'of its own employees, facilities
and equipment and the implementation of a separate retirement - system modeled
after the City of Costa Mesa's program. The Board specified all newly CMSD
vested and "at will" employees would retain as a minimum the same benefits the
City offered. The District CalPERS retirement system paralleled the City system as
a 2% at 55 plan.. This plan established a process to enable an'employee to retire
under the following formula:
"2 %" times "number of years worked" times "the highest year salary" at 55 years of
age
This program is shown in Attachment 1 and also allows for early retirement. There
is a decreasing benefit factor of 1.426% for retirement at age 50 and an increasing
benefit #actor of 2.418% for retirement at age 63:
The City of Costa Mesa recently negotiated with the Costa Mesa City Employees
Association (CMCEA) a new plan effective October 1, 2009 consisting of 2.5% at
age,55, and shown in Attachment 2.

CMSD Employee's CaIPERS Retirement April 15, 2008

The District employees elected not to form an employees association (union) for
several reasons, including the small number of District employees (the City has 600
employees), the ability to negotiate directly with the District, and the elimination of
employee association costs. District Employees desire to revise the CalPERS plan
in keeping with the concept of "the same benefits the City offered as a minimum."
DISCUSSION: The District currently has 12 employees as follows:
Fully Vested: 5
At Will: 7
Eleven of the 12 employees are in the CalPERS retirement plan due to hours
worked of greater than 1000 hours annually. One part-time person has not reached
this work hour threshold. The employee group does not include Manager /District
Engineer Rob Harriers, Finance Director Marc Davis, or Attorney Alan Burns.
Staff conducted a survey of local jurisdictions, districts and agencies (JDAs) to
identify the current status of their CalPERS retirement plans, included as
Attachment 3. Survey summary results from 46 JDAs include:
18: The number of JDAs currently with a 2% @ 55 plan;
13: The number of JDAs currently with a 2.5% @ 55 plan;
14: The number of JDAs currently with a 2.7% @ 55 plan;
1: The number of JDAs currently with a 3% @ 60 plan;
11: The number of JDAs currently funding 100% of the CalPERS plan
at no cost to the employees.
Following several human relations meetings, reviews of survey results, and
significant discussion, the District employees, along with Manager /District Engineer
Rob Harriers, formulated the proposed parameters for a new District plan as
follows:
1. 2.7% @ 55 (Attachment 4);
2. 100% Employer Paid plan;
3. Retroactive application to all CMSD years worked (applies to every JDA);
4. An implementation date of July 1, 2009 (essentially a one -year vesting.)
Mr. Hamers is in support of this plan as it places the CMSD as a very competitive
organization with other JDAs to obtain the best - qualified candidates for future job
offers. Secondly, the District employees are deserving of such a plan as they are
talented, work extremely hard, and serve the public and Board of Directors in an
exemplary manner.. Thirdly, the agencies with 2% at 55 will likely be revising their
plans as well, with the majority likely to adopt the 2.7% at 55 as is currently the
practice throughout the State of California.

After continued discussion, the eleven District CalPERS employees voted 11 -0 in
favor of the proposal. Mr. Harriers was not entitled to a vote and Finance Director
Marc Davis, also not entitled to a vote, observed the discussions in order to provide
financial information to the Board. Mr. Davis' report on the financial impact of the
proposed new plan will be provided as a separate report.

1. The Board of Directors approve the proposal to implement the 2.7% @ 55
on July 1, 2009.

Memorandum
To: Board of Directors
... an Independent Special District
From: Joan Revak, Board Secretary, Program Manager /Clerk of the District
Date: April 8, 2008
Subject: INCREASE IN CMSD EMPLOYEES' FLEXIBLE BENEFIT ACCOUNTS
Due to increased medical insurance costs, the City of Costa Mesa, in negotiations
with the City's Employee Association, increased the contribution to each employee's
flexible benefit account from $674.00/mo to $799.00/mo for a total increase of
$125.00 per month effective January 1, 2008.
® In view of the CMSD Board of Directors desire to maintain for its employees benefits
equal to those provided City of Costa Mesa employees, Staff recommends increasing
the District's monthly contribution to its employees' flexible benefit accounts by
$125.00/mo for a total benefit of $799.00 per month retroactive to January 1, 2008.
10
The District's Management Analyst confirmed there are sufficient funds in the budget
to fund this increase and retroactive payments.
District Staff also requests the flexible benefit account be revisited in September 2008
for medical premium increases effective January 2009.

Dear Denise:
Thank you again for coming to our troop and teaching us about recycling plastics.
Our girls brought in several pounds of plastic bottles, aluminum cans over the past
two months since your visit. We brought them to the recycling center today.
Enclosed is the receipt for our recycling efforts so far. We appreciate the District's offer
of $ 100 to troops participating in this program, and I will recommend it to other girl scout
troops in Costa Mesa. Our troop is planning on starting a recycling program at the school
level next year as a way to serve the community and help the environment.
• Let me know what to do with the trash can provided by the Sanitary District.
Thanks again.
Sincerely,
Nicole Javier

Subject: CR &R Recycling Center -Frank R. Bowerman Landfill tour
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ - - - - --
Denise Gilbert represented the District on a tour at the CR &R Recycling Center and
Frank R. Bowerman Landfill. Those participating in the tour were special education
students who have been studying recycling at Estancia High School.
Conducting the tour of the CR &R Recycling Center was Bob Williams who did an
outstanding job of holding the students interest with easy -to- understand
explanations on the process of recycling.
• Upon our arrival at the Frank R. Bowerman Landfill, we picked up our guide who
directed us to the current landfill cell, where we stopped, watched the trucks and
listened to the explanation of the landfill process.
The students were visually excited about seeing the process of recycling and the
end life of trash.
