No. 4 -PRELIMINARY ENGINEER'S REPORT: It will be recalle d that at
the June 10 Board meeting, Chairman Just sugg ested that the Board
adjourn to this hour and date to consider pre liminary informa tion
concerning the District's capital outla y needs for the coming five
y ears . A d etermination by the Board as to t hese ne eds and t heir
financing is n e c essary for preparation o f the District 's budget
for the coming fiscal year.
In order to present to the Directors, many of wh om are new to
the Board, a brief summary of the District 's needs with r egar d to
trunk and subtrunk sewers, Chairman Just sugges ted that the staff
r equest Lowry and Associates, who h a v e been the D:Lstrict 's engineers
for a n umber of ye ars , to prep are a brief pre liminary report out -
l ining the faci l ities needed . This r ep ort i s enclosed and i s , we
be l ieve, self-explanatory . Howev er because of the potential parti-
cipation by Riverside County interests in the major facility needed
(Santa Ana River Interceptor Trunk Sewe r), two separate construction
programs are presented (Tab les 1 and 2 of the report), one assuming
no participation by Riv ers ide County and the othe r assuming that the
r e cently executed agreeme nts with Riverside County Flood Control and
Water Conservation District will b e implement e d .
Although the r ep ort clearly sets forth the r equi red cons truction
n e.eds of the District that are now apparent, r epresentatives of Lowry
and Associate s will b e present to answer any questions the Di rectors
ma y h ave and to go into more d e t ai l regarding the many ramifications
of thi s subject.
·X·NOTE : A light supper w:Lll be served at 6 :00 p .m.
No . 5 -REPORT ON FINANCING OF FACILITIES DESCRIBED IN PRELIMINARY
ENGINEER'S REPORT : Chairman Just h as also suggested tha t the staff
prepare for this meeting a brief report showing the financial
c apabilities of the District to finance the needed facilit ies , with
and without participation by Riverside County . This summ a ry report
is also enclosed and consists of two schedules showing the cash flow
position of the District for the next five years . The Director of
Fi nance has prepared these schedules and will be present to g o into
greater detai l, if desired (see also Item No . 6).
No . 6 -AUTHORIZATION TO PLAN INCREASE IN DISTRICT 'S TAX RATE :
Examination of t he material prepared by the Director of Finance (I tem
No . 5) l eads to t he obvious conclusion that i f the needed facilities
are to be constructed within the time l imit required, additional
r evenue will be needed . In t h e event Riverside County participates
in the project, new revenue equivalent to an average increase of 2¢:
i n the District 's tax rate (now $O.L~261) wi l l be nec essary . Distri.ct
No . 3, last year, increased its tax rate by 6¢ for similar reasons .
In the event participation by Riverside County does not materialize,
new revenue equival ent to 10¢ average increase in the tax r a te will
be necessary .
Since , at t his time participation by Riverside County cannot
be definitely determined, the staff suggests that authoriz ation be
given to plan to increase the tax rate 6¢ f or the coming fiscal year
with a re -evaluati on of the matter at the end of 1970-71 when it will
b e definitely knovm whether or not Riverside County wi l l participate
and the master plan (Item No . 7 ) will be ·available .
No . 7 -INITIATION OF FURTHER ENGINEERING STUDIES : Th e engineer 's
report, con sidered under Item No . 4, recommends that immediate further
studies b e c ow.menced in order to meet the critical deadlines facing
the District . The first of these studies would be a pre liminary
d es i gn study for the Santa Ana River Interceptor Sew e r, as described
on Page ~~ of the enclos ed eng ineer 1 s r eport , and the second , the
preparation of an ultimate master plan for the District wj_thin the
next four months . Similar master plans h ave been prepar e d and approved
i n Districts Nos . 1, 3, 5, and 7 .
It is the staff 1s recommenda tion tha t the engineers be directed
t o submit proposals for this work for cons:Lderation and action at
the July Joint Board meetin g .

Board of Directors of
June 30, 1970
County Sanitation District No. 2
Orange County, California
Gentlemen:
DONALD J. MARTINSON. VICE PRES.
The following is a brief preliminary report on deficiencies in the
District's present trunk and sub-trunk sewer system, recommendations
for additional facilities and the estimated cost thereof.
Statement of the Problem
(1) The major trunk sewer serving the easterly portion of District 2 is
the Newhope Placentia Trunk. Numerous sub-trunk sewers feed into
the Newhope Placentia Trunk (Reference 1). The flow in this trunk
is rapidly reaching capacity, and as lands continue to develop in
these areas, additional trunk sewer capacity is obviously needed.
(2) In addition to the overloading of the Newhope Placentia Trunk, new
·developments (residential~ commercial, and industrial) in the north-
easterly portion of the District are creating capacity problems in
the existing sub-trunk sewer system. A re-evaluation of the sub-
trunk sewer system is also needed.
(3) Planning for the construction of District trunk sewer facilities
has been delayed by the proposed joint construction of the Santa
Ana River Interceptor Sewer with Riverside County.
Background
(1) The existing trunk sewer system was planned and constructed in the
1950's before the actual growth potential of the area was fully
realized by the planners. The very large number of people migrating
to Orange County during the 1950's and 60's which produced the
fastest growing area in the United States has resulted in an over-
loading of the older trunk sewers, including the Newhope Placentia
Trunk. This does not necessarily imply that the trunk sewers should
have been constructed much larger in the first place, because at the
June 30, 1970
Board of Directors of
County Sanitation District No. 2
Page -2-
time of construction, assessed valuations were low, and therefore the
ability to finance construction programs was limited.
(2) A study to evaluate the trunk sewer needs of the District was made
in 1965 (Reference 1), and at that time it was predicted that the
Newhope Placentia Trunk would be flowing full by the early 1970's.
(3) Flow measurements have been taken in the trunk sewer system since
1965, and these measurements confirm the prediction that additional
trunk sewer capacity is urgently needed. Figure 1 shows the latest
measurements taken in the system along with the capacities of the
various reaches in the system. Figure 2 shows graphically how the
flow in the Newhope Placentia Trunk has increased in the past five
years, and that if the flow continues to increase at the same rate,
the trunk will be flowing full within two years.
(4) In order to provide relief to the lower reach of the Newhope Placentia
Trunk, the District has recently constructed the Trask Avenue Inter-
ceptor sewer that will divert flows from the lower reach of the New-
hope Placentia Trunk to the Euclid Trunk. This will provide substantial
temporary relief to the lower reach. However, this project will not
solve the capacity problems for the upper areas.
(5) New developments scheduled for construction in the Northern portion
of the District between now and 1972 will generate flows far in excess
_of the available capacity.in the existing sub-trunk system in that
area. The total potential flow in 1972 will be nearly double the
existing capacity of the Cypress Avenue Sub-trunk (10.7 mgd compared
to a capacity of 5.9 mgd) which serves the area proposed for develop-
ment. The areas being developed now, or proposed for development,
and the present trunk sewer plan as developed in earlier studies are
shown in Figure 3.
Discussion
(1) In order to provide major trunk sewer capacity to supplement the
existing Newhope Placentia Trunk, it has been proposed to construct
a Santa Ana River Interceptor Sewer along the westerly bank of the
river from the upper areas of District 2 to Plant 1 (Reference 1).
(2) Riverside County has for many years considered the possibility of con-
structing a non-reclaimable waste line along the Santa Ana River from
Riverside County to the ocean. During this past year feasibility
studies have been made of a joint project with Riverside County,
June 30, 1970
Board of Directors of
County Sanitation District No. 2
Page -3-
whereby one sewer would be constructed to serve the needs of both the
District and Riverside County. In addition, Riverside County would
purchase treatment plant capacity from the joint Districts. This
feasibility study (Reference 2) showed that considerable savings
($2.7 million to District 2 and $2.5 million to Riverside County)
could be realized thereby. Agreements have been executed between
District 2 and Riverside County that permit the construction of a
joint project. It is now possible to move forward with the planning
and preliminary design of a joint Santa Ana River Interceptor sewer
project.
(3) In order to serve the developing areas of the District to the extent
provided for developed areas, an expansion of the existing sub-trunk
system is needed. A tentative program was outlined in the 1965 Re-
port (Reference 1) and in a later county report (Reference 3), but
an updating and expansion of these studies is needed. These sub-
trunk sewers will divert flows to the Santa Ana River Interceptor
Sewer.
(4) It is estimated that it will take approximately two years for the
design and construction of the Santa Ana River Interceptor Sewer
project, and therefore it is imperative, unless growth is halted,
that this project and the necessary expansions to the sub-trunk sys-
tem be started as soon as possible to relieve the Newhope Placentia
Trunk and the sub-trunks by 1972.
Cost Considerations
(1) The following cost estimates for the potential future District expen-
ditures have been made.

(2) It will be possible to stage the construction of the Santa Ana River
Interceptor Sewer over a two year period, and the local facilities
over a somewhat longer period, depending on the results of the Master
Plan study and future growth patterns (Tables 1 and 2).
Recommended Immediate Course of Action
In accordance with the cooperative agreement, Riverside County has
until December 1, 1970 to arrange for financing its share of the costs
of the joint project. However, the timing requirements for relief of
the Newhope Placentia Trunk are so critical that preliminary design of
the Santa Ana River Interceptor Sewer should start as soon as possible.
If it is not possible for Riverside County to participate in the pro-
ject, District 2 must move ahead with its own project. Further, the sub-
trunk system needs present re-evaluation to provide the required service
as previously outlined. Therefore, it is recommended that the District:
(1) Authorize the preparation of a preliminary design study for the
Santa Ana River Interceptor Sewer, including determination of align-
ment and route, utility relocation requirements, right of way re-
quirements and/or cooperative agreements with other agencies, but
not including the sizing of the sewer until the extent of the par-
ticipation of Riverside County is determined.
(2) Authorize the preparation of a Master Plan of Trunk and Sub-trunk'
_Sewers which will provide.for the newly developing areas and for
the diversion of existing flows to the Santa Ana River Interceptor
Sewer.

Excerpt from Manag e r 's Ag e nda Report, Joint Meeting, J u ne 10, 1970
Nos. 44, 45 and !~6 -AUTHORIZ ATIO N FOR TAKING NEW BIDS AND AWARDING
CONTRACT NO. 3-14 (REVISED ): Bids on this proj ect, wh ich is a
57-inch gravity sewer in We stminster Boulevard from the te rmination
of the Westminster Avenue Force Ma in (see above item) to the Miller-
Holder Trw1k Sewer in Ed1·.rards Street, we re opened on May 26. From the
bid tab ulation, ·which is included with the agenda, it can be s een that
only four bids were rec eived , which is conside r ably below the number
we have be en experiencing, and tha t the lm·1 bid was a pproximat e ly
$117,000 , or 20%, above the engineer's es timate . Addin g to the
problem, the low bidder, on May 27, submitted a r equest that his bid
be resc inded on the basis of omissions made by him i n preparing the
bid . In or der to obtain assured Fede ral funds (33 %) for this pro ject,
a cont rac t must be a1-·rarded by J une 30 .
Aft er extensive conference s with the design engineers and con-
sultation with Ch a irman Cu lver, it was decided t o c ~ll for new bids
imme di ately in order tha t the award deadline can be met . It was
further agre e d that the eng i n eers would modify the p roject to the
extent of r educing the d iameter of the pipe under the San Diego fr ee -
way from 5 7 -inch to 48-inch and would approach the State Division of
Highw ays towards relax ing the ir fr eei.vay crossing r equirements. The
original de sign requir e d a.n 8!!.~j.nch d:i.ameter, 615 foot long tunne l
unde r the fr eeway , with chemi c a l grouting of' the so:Ll in the tunnel
area . This tunne l section was thus v ery expensive (p articularly with
the grouting r equi reme nts) and it is hop ed that w:lth the above
de scribed c hcmges , signif:i.cantJ.y lower b lds 1·1ill be r eceived . Also,
we are h opeful that re -bidding the job with the chang es indicated will
attract more bidders .
In view of the above, the thr ee j_nd:i.ca ted i t e rn s on th e agenda ·
are reconunendE:cJ. by the Cha.irmm1 , engineers and staff , Th e engine ers
will be avai l a.b le to ans1ier er1y questions t he Directors ma y h a ve on
this matter .
