DATA BASES Housing Inventory System The Housing Inventory System(HIS)is a data system that includes all changes to each jurisdiction's housing stock. Data is collected at the address level and converted into a GIS database by geocoding.After geocoding,quality analysis efforts include tying activity to parcels.Depending on the jurisdiction,different documents are used to record added units including certificates of use and occupancy,utility release log, or building final documents. Demolitions and conversions are recorded though other recordation. Changes to the mobile home inventory will be verified with HCD.This project will be expanded to include an annual review and sign off process by each jurisdiction of their geocoded data to ensure accuracy. Census Data by Partial TAZ Update the correspondence tables of 2010 Census blocks to the TAZs after release of Census Bureau data and GIS shapefiles. As the various census files become available,transportation modeling variables and other key variables useful for projecting the modeling variables will be aggregated to TAZ. Calibrate Age Cohort Component,Shift-Share and Headship Rate Models Based on data from the Census Bureau, DOE, and EDD data, calibrate the models used to project county-wide population,housing and employment. Master Polygon File Update master polygon file based on the 2010 Census block file for use in development of OCP dataset and annual population and housing unit estimates.Allocate Census block data to TAZ,CAA,RSA,MWDOC,OCSD, and OCWD.Working with information from OC LAFCO,the master polygon file will be updated annually to include changes to agency boundaries:jurisdiction,MWDOC, OCSD,and OCWD. Population and Housing Estimates by TAZ(OCP) Estimates of population and housing by unit type will be developed using the 2010 Census and American Community Survey data at the split TAZ. From 2014 onwards,housing unit changes will be geocoded and aggregated to the TAZ. Annual estimates of population and housing will be produced by TAZ for maintenance of the OCP base file. Annual Population and Housing Estimates by Partial Census Tract and Sponsor Agency Estimates of population and housing units developed using the 2010 Census for each of the special district sponsors will be updated annually.From 2014 onwards,annual estimates (January 1)ofpopulation and housing will be produced by partial census tract and for each of the special district sponsor agencies:MWDOC, OCSD,and OCWD. 15 Return to Mende Report MOU2014-17 20140218 final.docx Project Total County Population,Housing,and Employment Draft assumptions for OCP-2018 will be developed and reviewed by the CDR TAC. These will then be incorporated into the macro level models used to project population,housing,and employment. The resulting projections will be reviewed by the CDR TAC and MOC and then brought to the OCCOG TAC and Board for approval as the controls totals for OCP-2018. Projected Population,Housing and Employment by TAZ(OCP) Preparation and development of OCP-2018 will begin during this MOU cycle. Countywide population,housing,and employment for years 2020 through 2045 will be allocated to Traffic Analysis Zones split by jurisdictions. Following the allocation, extensive review and refinement will occur to assure the accuracy of the projections. Secondary Variables by TAZ(OCTAM) The basic projected population,housing,and employment from OCP-2014 will be expanded to the 14 OCTAM variables. These variables will include resident population,group quarters population, employed residents,median income,occupied single family dwelling units, occupied multiple family dwelling units,household size,retail employment,service employment,K-12 public school employment,all other employment,school enrollment, university enrollment,and area. Data for the projection years will be updated in the next MOU cycle. Preparation of the base year OCTAM data for OCP-2018 will begin in this MOU cycle. Consolidated Boundary and Annexation Program (CBAS) CDR staff will report annual inisdictional boundary and feature changes through a new, voluntary program of the U.S. Census Bureau that allows for a consolidated annual review of jurisdiction boundaries.This review will be done using the official County Surveyor/OC LAFCO jurisdiction GIS boundary file. Orange County jurisdictions will be able to opt in or out of this CDR service annually. CDR will notify each participating jurisdiction and OC LAFCO of the outcome of the BAS review, i.e.whether there were any areas where jurisdiction boundaries needed to be corrected.

Herberg, General Manager Originator: Ed Torres, Director of Operations and Maintenance SUBJECT: TERMINATION OF AGREEMENT FOR LABORATORY FACILITIES BETWEEN OCSD AND SCCWRP GENERAL MANAGER'S RECOMMENDATION A. Terminate the agreement of May 1, 2007, between OCSD and SCCWRP, which provided use of OCSD laboratory facilities; and B. Direct the General Manager of OCSD to notify the Executive Director of SCCWRP of the decision to terminate this agreement effective three months from the date of the notice. SUMMARY In July 2007 the OCSD Board of Directors entered into an agreement with the Southern California Coastal Water Research Project (SCCWRP) to provide OCSD laboratory facilities at no cost. At that time OCSD and SCCWRP were engaged in a number of significant research based studies that benefited both organizations. Also at that time SCCWRP did not have laboratory facilities of its own to carry out this work. Since 2007 SCCWRP has constructed a laboratory and no longer has need or desire to perform laboratory work at the OCSD laboratory. It is therefore recommended that the agreement approved by OCSD's Board of Directors on July 9, 2007, to provide OCSD access and facilities to SCCWRP staff be terminated. Section 14 of the Agreement provides that it may be severed or terminated by either party upon three months' notice. It is further recommended that the OCSD Board of Directors provide direction to OCSD's General Manager to provide the Executive Director of SCCWRP the three months' notice of termination. PRIOR COMMITTEE/BOARD ACTIONS July 2007 - Board of Directors approved agreement dated May 1, 2007, granting laboratory facilities and access to SCCWRP staff. ADDITIONAL INFORMATION SCCWRP staff vacated OCSD laboratory facilities over nine months ago and SCCWRP management has expressed that they have no interest in reoccupying these facilities in the foreseeable future. Page 1 of 2 CEQA N/A BUDGET / PURCHASING ORDINANCE COMPLIANCE N/A ATTACHMENT The following attachment(s) may be viewed on-line at the OCSD website (www.ocsd.coml with the complete agenda package: • Agreement between the Orange County Sanitation District and the Southern California Coastal Water Research Project Page 2 of 2 Return to Mende Report Agreement Between the Orange County Sanitation District and Southern California Coastal Water Research Project Regarding SCCWRP Utilization of OCSD Microbiology Laboratory Facilities This agreement regarding utilization of Orange County Sanitation District("OCSD') laboratory facilities by the Southern California Coastal Water Research Project Authority ("SCCWRP'),effective as of May 1,2007,("Agreemenf)is entered into by OCSD and SCCWRP on the terms described below. OCSD and SCCWRP are referred to individually as a"Party"and collectively as "Parties". Recitals A. OCSD is a County Sanitation District pursuant to California Health&Safety Code§4700 or seq. B. SCCWRP is a joint powers agency focusing on marine environmental research. C. OCSD is a SCCWRP member agency. D. OCSD currently has a full service microbiology laboratory for routine work. In addition,OCSD often provides at its facilities some of the microbiology testing services for SCCWRP projects,since SCCWRP currently has a limited microbiology laboratory E. OCSD and SCCWRP desire to have SCCWRP conduct some or all of its microbiology testing using OCSD microbiology laboratory facilities, for the convenience of both OCSD and SCCWRP. OCSD will also benefit from direct participation in SCCWRP research projects, enabling OCSD to maintain a leading role within SCCWRP in the evaluation of ocean discharges on public health and the environment. These general microbiology tests and services include fecal indicator bacteria identification, identification of unknown bacteria using the Vitek systems,PCR research,and gene sequencing. Therefore,OCSD and SCCWRP agree as follows: 1. SCCWRP anticipates that a laboratory analyst and a laboratory supervisor, both employed by SCCWRP,will work at OCSD 90%and 50%of time, respectively. OCSD agrees to provide 2 office spaces in a cubicle arrangement that will include access to the OCSD information technology network and telephone network. OCSD will provide SCCWRP two of its computers to access the OCSD network onsite, and only OCSD computers will be permitted to be connected to the network. OCSD will assure that all network software is updated to meet OCSD standards. 531732.3 OCSD/SCCWRP Return to Mende Report Laboratory Agreement May 1,2007 2. OCSD and SCCWRP anticipate that 30 to 50linear feet of lab bench space will be adequate to support SCCWRP projects. This space will be distributed throughout the lab. 3. Other SCCWRP personnel will be present at various times depending on the nature of the work. Arrangements for space and resources will be worked out in advance with the OCSD laboratory management. 4. If a conflict arises in the workplace between SCCWRP and OCSD personnel, a management team from both agencies will meet to review the facts and to determine the best course of action. OCSD reserves the right to deny access to any SCCWRP employee at my time for any reason or no reason. 5. Some work may need to be performed at off-hours and on weekends. At such times, SCCWRP staff performing such work shall sign in and out at the Control Center and notify the Control Ceuta when staying past normal business hours. 6. OCSD will provide 2 permanent parking passes,4 building access cards and temporary passes as needed. 7. Laboratory supplies for SCCWRP projects will be purchased by SCCWRP and stored in a location provided by OCSD. Approximately 2-4 weeks of supplies can be stored at any one time,.and longer term storage must be arranged by SCCWRP. 8. OCSD will provide access to OCSD lab equipment to SCCWRP staff on the same basis as OCSD staff. Scheduling of equipment use will be discussed as required between staff from both agencies. SCCWRP owned equipment brought to OCSD will be available to OCSD lab personnel after consultation with SCCWRP regarding availability. 9. SCCWRP will meet with OCSD lab management at least quarterly to discuss the nature of upcoming projects so that proper coordination with OCSD activities is assured. 10. All SCCWRP personnel who will work in the OCSD lab facilities will be interviewed by the lab management to make sure there is compatibility between the two groups. Whenever possible,someone from the OCSD laboratory will be part of the hiring team for SCCWRP staff. 11. SCCWRP will assure that their staff members have received appropriate training related to diversity in the workplace,violence in the workplace, harassment in the workplace and safety in the laboratory. This training can be accomplished by a combination of reading OCSD personnel policies in these 5317823 OCSD/SCCWRP Return to Mende Report Laboratory Agreement May 1, 2007 areas as well as by SCCWRP sponsored courses. OCSD will provide a training session on general and laboratory plant safety. SCCWRP personnel will be invited to attend the quarterly laboratory safety committee meetings. 12. Insurance. a.

Approve Change Order No. 2 to Purchase Order 104627-OB to Olin Chlor Alkali Products, for the Purchase of sodium hypochlorite, Specification No. C-2012-536 authorizing a unit price increase of $0.05 per gallon for a new total unit price of $0.489/gallon delivered, plus applicable sales tax, for the period beginning September 1, 2014 through August 31, 2015, and for all subsequent contract renewal periods; and B. Approve a 10% annual unit price contingency. SUMMARY Olin Chlor Alkali Products (Olin) is requesting a price increase from $0.439/gallon to $0.489/gallon delivered plus applicable sales tax. Staff recommends the renewal of the contract because: • Olin has historically maintained low chemical costs and lowered OCSD's pricing significantly for sodium hypochlorite in 2012 and held it firm for two years. • The price is lower than OCSD's previous contract with JCI which had a unit cost of $0.592/gallon plus tax. • Olin's proposed price is lower than the other municipalities in Southern California including, City of San Diego, Orange County Water District, South Orange County Water District, and Irvine Ranch Water District. • Olin has consistently provided dependable service and a quality product. PRIOR COMMITTEE/BOARD ACTIONS Original Spec. C-2012-536 contract with Olin was approved per FY 2012/13 Budget: Section 5, Page 11. Page 1 of 2 ADDITIONAL INFORMATION Sodium hypochlorite (bleach) is used at both treatment plants for disinfection and odor control. Olin has reliably provided bleach since August 2012 for a delivered price of $0.439/gallon plus applicable sales tax. In 2012 the bleach contract was competitively bid where Olin was the successful lowest bid. The next lowest bid was $0.513/gallon plus applicable sales tax.

Herberg, General Manager Originator: Ed Torres, Director of Operations and Maintenance SUBJECT: CATIONIC POLYMER, SPECIFICATION NO. C-2013-591BD GENERAL MANAGER'S RECOMMENDATION A. Award a Contract to Polydyne Inc. for the purchase of Cationic Polymer, Specification No. C-2013-5918D, for a unit price of $2.425 per active pound delivered for Solution Polymer (WE-192) plus applicable sales tax, and $2.225 per active pound delivered for Mannich Polymer (C-331) plus applicable sales tax, and $2.929 per active pound delivered for Emulsion Polymer (WE-1233) plus applicable sales tax, and $2.643 per active pound delivered for Emulsion Polymer (WE-1328) plus applicable sales tax, for a total estimated amount of $1,650,100 for the period July 1, 2014 through June 30, 2015, with four one-year renewal options; and B. Approve a 10% annual unit price contingency. SUMMARY Cationic polymer is used at both treatment plants for thickening biological solids generated in the dissolved air flotation thickeners (DAFT) and dewatering biosolids before being transported to offsite reuse or disposal sites. This contract was competitively bid with twenty (20) prospective bidders with two (2) bid packages being received by the bid close date of March 11, 2014. In order to increase competition, the bid criteria was broken into three process areas: 1) Plant No. 1 & Plant No. 2 dewatering, 2) Plant No. 1 DAFT and 3) Plant No. 2 DAFT. Bidders were allowed to bid on 1, 2, or all 3 process areas. The bidding process included special requirements for supplier bench testing. Suppliers were allowed a two (2) week period to schedule and conduct bench tests. OCSD bench tested the pre-qualified polymers to evaluate the performance of the polymer. The projected usage was determined based on polymer performance in bench scale testing. The total annual cost was determined by multiplying the projected usage by the unit cost. The prequalified polymers with the lowest annual cost for each of the three process areas is being recommended for this contract, which in this case are all supplied by Polydyne, Inc. Page 1 of 3 The two companies that bid and their total bid amounts are listed below in the Additional Information section. Although BASF Corp. appeared to have a lower unit cost, it would have required a much higher usage to yield the required performance and would have ended up actually costing more. PRIOR COMMITTEE/BOARD ACTIONS N/A ADDITIONAL INFORMATION OCSD utilizes three types of cationic polymer (solution polymer, mannich polymer and emulsion polymer) for the following reasons. Mannich polymer is used in Plant No. 1 and Plant No. 2 dewatering. Mannich (pronounced mannick) polymers are effective and can be manufactured and provided at a lower cost than solution polymers. However they can contain various amounts of residual formaldehyde which presents risk to the Ground Water Replenish System (GWRS) as these compounds can form compounds of concern. At Plant No. 1 we use mannich polymers only in process areas that do not enter into GWRS Solution polymer is used at Plant No. 1 to thicken biological solids generated in the secondary treatment process. In this application the higher cost solution polymer is used instead of mannich because the process stream feeds into GWRS. Emulsion polymer is used at Plant No. 1 as backup polymer in dewatering and Plant No. 2 to DAFTs. The emulsion polymer is 10 times the concentration of both solution and mannich polymer, allowing the Districts to store more active pounds of polymer on site. Because Plant No. 1's mannich polymer storage is only 3.5 days, emulsion polymer is stored as a backup, increasing storage to 19 days. Plant No. 2 DAFT process area only has facilities for emulsion polymer. Bid results Polymer Type/ Product Usage Actual Bidder $/ Total Annual Process Area Name active Ib/yr %active I I Active Ila.

Herberg, General Manager Originator: Rob Thompson, Director of Engineering SUBJECT: ODOR CONTROL MASTER PLAN — ODOR MONITORING INVESTIGATION BY MH3 CORPORATION GENERAL MANAGER'S RECOMMENDATION Approve sole sourcing with MH3 Corporation to qualify and quantify certain odorants to complete the Odor Control Master Plan's characterization work, for a total amount not to exceed $99,500. SUMMARY The Odor Control Master Plan (SP-166) will provide the Board of Directors a detailed cost analysis for alternative odor control Levels of Service for its approval. In order to accomplish this, staff will approach the Odor Control Master Plan in three phases: an odor monitoring investigation phase, an odor modeling phase, and a report-writing phase. This request supports the odor monitoring investigation. The odor monitoring work conducted so far has determined the majority of chemical compounds that cause odors at the different process areas at both Orange County Sanitation District (OCSD) plants. However, the study has also pointed to the presence of certain odorants that require more research to determine their identification, concentration, and odor threshold. This information is important in order to determine target odorants that require foul air scrubbing to minimize the impacts of plant process odors to surrounding neighbors. MH3 Corporation is the only consultant in Southern California equipped to identify, determine concentrations, and analyze odor thresholds of compounds that are detectable by the human nose, but not by standard laboratory method.

Herberg, General Manager Originator: Rob Thompson, Director of Engineering SUBJECT: GISLER-REDHILL SYSTEM IMPROVEMENTS, REACH B, CONTRACT NO. 7-37 GENERAL MANAGER'S RECOMMENDATION A. Approve Amendment No. 6 to the Professional Design Services Agreement with Tetra Tech, Inc., providing for additional engineering services for Gisler-Redhill System Improvements, Reach B, Contract No. 7-37, for an additional amount of $416,000 increasing the total amount not to exceed $1,475,479; and B. Approve a contingency increase for an additional amount of$73,774 (5%). SUMMARY The Orange County Sanitation District's (Sanitation District) 1999 Strategic Plan identified a portion of the Gisler-Redhill System Improvements, Reach B, Contract No. 7-37, to be hydraulically deficient. Flow monitoring conducted in 2004 has also confirmed that the sewer is flowing approximately 90% full, and hydraulic modeling indicates that peak wet weather flows would exceed the capacity of the pipeline. The original project scope of work included constructing a parallel larger diameter trunk sewer line to increase capacity. Upon completion of this design, concerns were raised by the City of Tustin (City) regarding traffic impacts the project would have on the community and that the Sanitation District should look into alternative means to improve the hydraulic deficiencies in the sewer system. A hybrid rehabilitation design was completed that included cross connections between the trunk and parallel interceptor line to maximize capacity of the existing system preventing potential spills but not surcharges. This was a compromise, but allowed the project to move forward to reduce risk of spills. Plans were nearing completion to rehabilitate the remaining hydraulically deficient sewer. Recently, the City completed a section of Tustin Ranch Road, a parallel roadway that is designed to relieve traffic volumes from Redhill Avenue. The Sanitation District then re- approached the City and obtained approval to design and construct a new sewer to replace the capacity and condition-deficient section of the trunk sewer with a new larger sewer in shoulder sections of Redhill Avenue. This revised scope of work provides a long-term uncompromised design providing capacity to eliminate the risk of a spill and avoiding surcharge while also reducing construction risks and impacts to the City by moving the pipeline to a less congested area. This Amendment is to provide additional engineering design services to prepare plans and specifications for the revised project scope of work.

TETRA TECH Return to Aaenda Report W.Handal Khublall April 15,2014 Page 9 Tark 6.7—Quality Control All elements of the Consultant's Quality Assumnce/Quality,Control (QA/QC)Plan developed for the SARI Project—Preliminary Design shall also apply to Amendment No.6. It has been assumed that no additional documents will need to be prepared to facilitate a District requested QA/QC audit of the Consultant's work to ensure conformance with the QA/QC Plan. Tetra Tech will be required to submit a copy of the QA/QC plan and its implementation,if requested by OCSD. Task 6.8—Pertaining Tetra Tech will assist the District in obtaining the City of Tustin, City of Santa Ana, City of Irvine, Railroad and other required permits.We have assumed that new submittal packages will be required to the City of Santa Ana, City of Wine and the Railroad. For the City of Tustin, we have assumed a maximum of six (6) meetings will be required during the design process to obtain the permit for the new design. Tack 6.9—Separate Construction Bid Package for Warner and Redkill(folk may be deleted) The City of Tustin has indicated that Warner Avenue and Redhill Avenue intersection street improvements may be constructed this spring. The City prefers not to have any construction within the intersection after the street improvements are completed.The following task may be deleted if the City delays the construction of the street improvements to after the construction of the new replacement conk sewer. The following is a summary of the level of effort to prepare a separate construction bid package consisting of all of the new replacement sewer construction within the intersection to be included in the City's bid package so that the City will construct the pipeline on behalf of OCSD. • Prepare a Technical Memorandum summarizing the hydraulic analysis to determine if the interconnection between the book and interceptor can occur upstream of Warner Avenue, eliminating the requirement to construct within the intersection. • Prepare a plan and profile of the new replacement bond,sewer and necessary details and traffic control concepts to be included in the City's bid package. This is the additional effort to remove from the overall design package and include in a separate plan set. • Prepare a separate Construction Cost Estimate for this work. • Prepare a separate Specification package for this work including a bid schedule. • Additional submittals to Santa Ana and Tustin due to separate bid package. • Additional meetings with City of Tustin and City's designer of the street improvements. For this proposal,we have assumed an additional four(4)meetings with the City. • Additional bid support services for this separate bid package. This includes attendance in a pre-bid meeting, evaluation of the submitted bids, fumish consultation and advise to OCSD staff regarding the potential award of the Contract, and attendance in two (2) negotiation meetings with the City to discuss award of the contract Work Package 3254—Bid Support Services Task 6.10—Bid Support Services Tetra Tech will provide the following bid period services: TETRA TECH Return to Mends Report Mr.Hardat Khublall April 15.2014 Page 10 • Participate in the pre-bid meeting • Respond to questions and provide answers as appropriate and feasible. • Prepare project drawing set and project specification addenda to provide clarification and resolve ears and omissions identified prior to bid opening • Within two weeks of the bid date, prepare conformed documents set (drawings, databases, specifications and other required materials) that incorporates the addenda (see Engineering Design Guidelines, Chapter 01, Design Guidelines — General Requirements, Section 01.4 "Preparation of Project Deliverables"for requirements as modified in Section V of this Scope of Work, "Modifications to the Engineering Design Guidelines" and the requirements of the CAD Manual). • Participate in reviewing alternate equipment proposals from the contractor,if applicable. Work Package 3258—Environmental Documentation Task 6.11—Environmental Documentation(task may be deleted and performed by OCSD) Tetra Tech has reviewed the OCSD's "1999 Strategic Plan Final Program Environmental Impact Report",dated October 1999,in its final version to assess if the proposed new design is covered under this EIR.Although the EIR does analyze this project at the project level(versus the program level, as many of the 1999 EEL projects planned for later years were addressed),the current project disturbance footprint exceeds the area analyzed in the 1999 EIR, and now incorporates unpaved area along the eastern side of Red Hill between Warner and Edinger not addressed in the EIR. As indicated in the EIR for biological resources (page 7.3-1, and in Mitigation Measure 7.3-1), if the District modifies a project alignment such that unpaved vegetated area would be disturbed, the District would conduct additional California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) review as appropriate to address potential impacts to biological resources. Term Tech proposes a limited work effort to conduct the additional CEQA review for the new design. Preparation of an Addendum to the 1999 Strategic Plan EIR is proposed. Circulation of an EIR Addendum for public review is not required, hence allowing a more compact schedule. An EIR Addendum can also be narrowly focused on those areas where changes to the original project are planned. For topical areas where project changes are proposed, such as biological resources, limited technical analysis is required to support that there has been no substantial change from the previous 1999 EIR analysis. In the 15 years since the Strategic Plan EIR was prepared,analysis of greenhouse gas(GHG)emissions has been incorporated into the CEQA checklist Conducting additional CEQA review through the preparation of an EIR Addendum is not felt to trigger the need for a GHG analysis, however. While some public commenters on other projects have made the argument that additional CEQA documentation required GHG analysis, case law has upheld that modifications to an environmental document prepared before the GHG requirement was imposed do not trigger the need for a GHG analysis. The reasoning has been that climate change was a known phenomenon in the 1980's and 1990's, and does not represent a new significant area for analysis. A technical GHG analysis is, therefore,not considered a requirement and is not included in this scope of work. The scope of work that follows consists of three tasks: TETRA TECH Return to Mends Report Mr.Harder Khublall April 15,2014 Page 11 Task 6.11.1—Project Iniff rdon and Organfzodon Tetra Tech's CEQA specialist will perform a site visit, review project plans, assess additional data requirements, and finalize the scope of work and schedule for obtaining the required CEQA clearance for the new design. Task 6.11.2—Prepare and SubmirAdminisrrnfive Draft EIR Addendum Tetra Tech will prepare a complete HER Addendum, using the CEQA checklist. The discussion will explain by topical area why the 1999 EEL analysis still applies, based on lack of substantial change from the previous analysis. As an initial step, a draft project description for the project with supporting Site Plan exhibit, based upon the site visit and review of project and reference materials, will be prepared for review by the project team to confirm its accuracy and completeness.Environmental issues from the CEQA checklist identified as requiring an expert level of technical analysis are limited to biological resources, and hazards/hazardous materials(database search and interpretation only). The following technical items will be provided to support the EIR Addendum: 1) a Geld visit by a biologist followed by a letter report addressing site and surrounding biological resource conditions,and addressing potential impacts (to be performed by subconsuimnt PCR); and 2) a database search for hazards/hazardous materials. Three hard copies and electronic Word and PDF files of the Administrative Draft EIR Addendum will be submitted to OCSD. Task 6.11.3—Prepare Revisions and Submit Draft EIR Addendum Revisions to the Administrative Draft EEL Addendum will be made in response to one set of comments by OCSD. Three hard copies and electronic Word and PDF files of the Draft EEL Addendum will be provided to OCSD. Tetra Tech will produce up to 20 copies of the Draft EIR Addendum for OCSD use and files. Task 6.11.4—Additional Technical Studies(Optional Task) To make sure there is no grounds for questions on the CEQA documentation, OCSD may consider to include the Air Quality Greenhouse Gas (AQ/GHG) emissions analysis. This will additional CEQA documentation, while not required, may be worthwhile to make sure no comments from the public would slow the project down.The following task is an optional task which can be deleted by OCSD. The additional technical studies include air quality and GHG analysis, a construction-phase technical analysis for fugitive dust and greenhouse gas emissions. Transportation/traffic and noise technical specialists will be contributing to the EIR Addendum at a general level, but no detailed, specific technical analyses for these issue amas are included in this scope of work. TETRA TECH Return to Mende Report Mr.Handal Khublall April 15,2014 Page 12 Work Package 3350—Construction Support Services(task may be deleted) Task 6.11—Construction Support Services This task is for providing construction support services for the construction of the new replacement trunk sewer within Warner Avenue and Redhill Avenue within the City's bid package. It is our understanding the Tetra Tech will provide construction support services for the bid package included within Amendment No.6 but that this scope and fee will be negotiated at a different date. This task may be deleted if Tetra Tech is not required to perform the above Task 6.9.The following is a description of the construction support services that we will provide for this separate bid package: • Perform shop drawing review of fifteen(15)submittals. • Respond to five(5)Requests for Information(RFIs). • Attend two(2)meetings with the City,Contractor and OCSD. • Prepare record drawings.

Herberg, General Manager Originator: Ed Torres, Director of Operations & Maintenance SUBJECT: WAREHOUSING OF CRITICAL PROGRAMMABLE LOGIC CONTROLLERS GENERAL MANAGER'S RECOMMENDATION Information Only. SUMMARY Since 1994, The Orange County Sanitation District (OCSD), as a part of an effort to automate and efficiently operate the treatment and collection processes, has standardized the use of Modicon Quantum programmable logic controllers (controllers) as an integral part of the supervisory control and data acquisition systems. These controllers are used throughout the facilities to control and monitor treatment systems, pumps, valves and process equipment within the treatment plants and outlying pump stations. Approximately 180 controller modules are installed throughout the facilities. Schneider Electric, the parent company of the Modicon Quantum line of controllers, has recently announced an end of life date for these controllers, tentatively scheduled for mid-2015. Given the criticality of these controllers and the large quantities of software developed on these controllers for all the CIP projects over the last eighteen years, staff will pursue increasing the current warehouse inventory and purchase additional Modicon Quantum controllers to stock and serve as replacements to ensure reliability of the treatment processes are always running. Staff has started the process of researching and developing standards and a migration path forward to service and replace these controllers with newer models. Two types of components are impacted by the recently announced end of life date by Schneider Electric, the programmable logic controller and associated hot stand by module. Quantities in the warehouse will be increased by approximately 20 controllers and hot standby modules each for an estimated value of$400,000. PRIOR COMMITTEE/BOARD ACTIONS N/A CEQA N/A Page 1 of 1 OPERATIONS COMMITTEE Neebng Dare To ad.of Di, 05,07,14 -- AGENDA REPORT Item Number Item Number 9 Orange County Sanitation District FROM: James D. Herberg, General Manager Originator: Lorenzo Tyner, Director of Finance and Administrative Services SUBJECT: POST MARCH 28, 2014 EARTHQUAKE ACTIVITIES GENERAL MANAGER'S RECOMMENDATION Information Only. SUMMARY On March 28, a 5.1 magnitude earthquake centered in the La Habra area occurred with several smaller pre and aftershocks. Preliminary damage assessments conducted by Collections and Operations staff, soon following the event, did not reveal the presence of any damage or operational disruptions, which ultimately did not warrant activation of the Integrated Emergency Response Plan (IERP). As with any incident, this event allowed for further refining of post-earthquake procedures. PRIOR COMMITTEE/BOARD ACTIONS N/A ADDITIONAL INFORMATION Integrated Emergency Response Plan (IERP) The Integrated Emergency Response Plan (IERP) is based on a realistic identification and assessment of hazards with which we may be confronted and using our resources and capabilities to deal effectively with these hazards. The IERP contains policies, plans, and procedures for preparing for and responding to emergencies. OCSD's emergency response organization, called the Incident Command System (ICS), will be activated when an emergency condition cannot be effectively responded to using the normal operating organization. The IERP reflects OCSD's commitment to ensuring the safety and health of employees, the community, and the environment. In addition, the IERP was developed to ensure that we meet the legal and regulatory requirements to be prepared for and respond to a variety of emergencies. Page 1 of 3 The IERP is based on the following principles: • Ensure the safety of personnel, the public, and equipment and systems. • Keep water flowing into and out of the plant so that it does not flood the streets. • Comply with regulatory requirements. The goals of the IERP are to: • Protect human life • Protect the environment • Prevent or reduce property damage • Restore normal operations When emergencies exceed our capabilities, assistance from local resources (agencies and vendors) will be requested through prearranged agreements, contracts, and working relationships. When local resources are exhausted, assistance will be requested in accordance with the Operational Area Agreement. Earthquake Response Collections Inspection Activities • A Collections Operations and Maintenance team completed their inspection of the District's Miller-Holder, Beach Relief, and Imperial Sewer Trunk lines from Stage Road and Dodds Avenue. in Buena Park upstream to Imperial Hwy and Palm St. in Brea, approximately 3.5 roadway miles. Their inspection did not reveal any signs of damage to roadways or see any repair excavation activities by others that would indicate possible stress to our sewer lines. • Facilities Engineering Support Services' (FSSD), Contracts Management and our Facilities Repairs Engineering staff scheduled our Closed Circuit Television (CCTV) contractor(s) to perform internal inspections, to be completed by April 30 in the following two pipelines: • One mile of the existing Western Regional Sewers near Los Alamitos which could be at risk due to older pipe joint styles • One mile of the Miller Holder or Imperial Sewer that is above and closest to the earthquake epicenter on March 28 • The Facilities Repairs Engineering staff will also conduct an internal inspection of the Yorba Linda Pump Station Force Main which might have been put at risk. This outsourced CCTV system work of the pressurized metallic pipe will occur by May 7. Flows can be gravity by-passed during the inspection. Page 2 of 3 Operations Inspection Activities • Soon following the earthquake, operations staff at both plants assembled to verify staff safety. Operations staff paired up and inspected the treatment facility looking for leaks, damaged concrete, or any other visible damage such as misaligned pipes. Typically, any visible damage is reported to the shift supervisor and documented in the shift supervisors log; however the magnitude of this event did not cause damage of any type to report. • Operations staff who worked the desk conducted a CRISP round to verify our main influent/effluent pumps were operational or if any alarms that may have occurred due to the quake were activated. Staff also conducted a CRISP round of pump stations to verify alarms, possible loss of power, and pumping/wetwell trends. • Once the status of both treatment plants were know, a status email was sent out to selected Executive Team members and Managers. All findings will be discussed and repairs if recommended will be scheduled. These are unbudgeted operating expenses and reimbursement from FEMA may be recommended depending on findings. As a final step, staff is finalizing a post-earthquake response checklist to employ after quakes of an OCSD agreed magnitude. In addition to inspection activities, notification steps which involve the PIO are also incorporated in this checklist. Like the March 28 event, not all earthquakes will require massive regional IERP mobilization. The responses checklist allows for scalability of activities based on the earthquake's magnitude however IERP trigger criteria will need to be further explored.

Plant No. 1 Treatment Facility Odor Complaint Summary Plant No. 1 received 2 in house odor complaints that were attributed to stagnant water in our out of service Headworks facility. Odors from the Headworks facility were noticeable at our plant entrance and around our administrative buildings. Staff have implemented practices to ensure odors from the Headworks facility do not reoccur. In an effort to better respond to and define odor sources, the Public Information Office (PIO), Process Engineering and Operations continue to evaluate odor sources and address all odor complaints in a timely manner. 2. Plant No. 2 Treatment Facility Odor Complaint Summary Plant No. 2 received 6 attributable odor complaints. These complaints seem to be directly related to our new Trickling Filter process. The most significant odor being a "garlic smell" which is emitted from carbon scrubbers used to treat trickling filter odors. To reduce the nuisance of garlic odor, carbon is being replaced every two months which has had a positive effect on the number of odor complaints received. Due to the frequency of carbon change out, Operations with support from Engineering staff are designing an alternative odor scrubbing technology. During this quarter Public Information Office (PIO), Process Engineering, and Operations met with nearby neighbors twice to better identify and mitigate odors. 3. Collection Facilities Odor Complaints—Third Quarter FY 2013/14 OCSD received 3 odor complaints potentially due to the collection system. Only 1 was attributable to OCSD. Based on our current upstream sewage conditioning program, our goal for level of service is 34 or fewer complaints caused by OCSD. 4.
