COMMISSION MEMORANDUM NO. 8445 DATE: March 15, 2011 TO: SAWPA Commission SUBJECT: Basin Monitoring Program Task Force Status PREPARED BY: Mark Norton P.E., Water Resources and Planning Manager RECOMMENDATION It is recommended that the Commission receive and file this status report about the Basin Monitoring Program Task Force. DISCUSSION On January 22, 2004, the RWQCB approved the Basin Plan Amendment for TIN and TDS. The Basin Plan Amendment defined specific agencies throughout the watershed responsible for several monitoring and analyses programs for TIN and TDS. Some of the programs are conducted on an annual basis and some on a triennial basis. SAWPA serves as the administrator to conduct these monitoring and analyses programs. A task force was formed in May 2004 to administer the required monitoring programs proposed for formation. A task force agreement, along with an agreement to form the Project Agreement 20 Committee among three of the SAWPA member agencies, IEUA, OCWD, and EMWD, was developed and approved by the Commission in June 2004. Pursuant to the 2004 Basin Plan Amendment, the task force agencies are required to conduct the following investigations: 1. Recomputation of the Ambient Water Quality – every three years 2. Preparation of a Water Quality Report for the Santa Ana River – annual

The Task Force includes the following agencies:

• Eastern Municipal Water District • Chino Basin Watermaster • Inland Empire Utilities Agency • Yucaipa Valley Water District • Orange County Water District • City of Beaumont • City of Riverside • City of Corona • Lee Lake Water District • City of Redlands • Elsinore Valley Municipal Water District • City of Rialto • Irvine Ranch Water District • Jurupa Community Services District • Colton/San Bernardino Regional Tertiary

Treatment and Wastewater Reclamation • Western Riverside Co Regional Wastewater Authority

Authority

The Santa Ana Regional Water Quality Control Board and SAWPA also are signatories to the agreement.

CM#8445 March 15, 2011 Page 2 In addition to the annual report and the triennial ambient water quality update, the Task Force also has completed Wasteload Allocations for the Santa Ana River, which assists the agencies in assuring that their permit requirements are kept current and reflecting compliance with the groundwater objectives. Another major activity that the Task Force completed was the Declaration of Conformance. Within this Declaration, the Task Force and Regional Board declared that they are in conformance with the new State Board Water Recycling Policy requirements for the completion of a TDS/Nutrient Management Plan for the Santa Ana Region, by efforts conducted by the Nitrogen TDS Task Force that resulted in a RWQCB Basin Plan Amendment for Nitrogen and TDS in 2004. Further, the Declaration indicated conformance with the Emerging Constituents monitoring requirements in the State Board Water Recycling Policy through the Phase II Emerging Constituents Investigation Program submitted to the Regional Board in December 2009 by the Emerging Constituents Program Task Force. Finally, the major tenets defined in the Nitrogen and TDS Task Force’s Reclamation Guidance Document were included for regulatory acceptance, an action that SAWPA and the Task Force strongly encouraged the Santa Ana Regional Board to take on since the completion of the Nitrogen TDS Task Force in 2004.

The benefits of this Task Force overall are as follows:

• Created a watershed-wide monitoring program to assure water quality protection of groundwater basins for Nitrogen and TDS.

• Avoided development costs of a $2-3 million dollar groundwater/surface water modeling effort and all possible model update costs.

• Avoided lawsuits over challenges to legitimacy and science used in the development of past groundwater objectives.

• Decreased costs of conformance by sharing costs among 16 agencies, which reduces annual costs for all task force agencies in meeting basin plan requirements.

• Unified regional voice working with the Regional Board. RESOURCE IMPACTS None. MN:pb

COMMISSION MEMORANDUM NO. 8446 DATE: March 15, 2011 TO: SAWPA Commission SUBJECT: Regional Surface Water Quality Monitoring Program Status PREPARED BY: Mark Norton P.E., Water Resources and Planning Manager RECOMMENDATION It is recommended that the Commission receive and file this status report about the development of a proposed regional surface water quality monitoring program. DISCUSSION In October 2010, SAWPA was approached by the Regional Board to determine if we could assist in holding meetings with interested surface water quality monitoring agencies to discuss the development of a voluntary regional surface water quality monitoring program. The Regional Board proposed a regional approach as an alternative to surface water quality monitoring currently required under individual NPDES discharge permits for wastewater treatment plants, stormwater permits, and others. The intent of the program would be to reduce sampling duplication, reduce costs, reduce the number of sampling sites, and assist with a better determination of river reach compliance with surface water objectives. Some of the benefits and costs savings of such a program are described as follows: • The Regional Monitoring Program would not specifically be tied to TMDLs or permits, and

therefore would retain the ability to receive grant money. Also, it would qualify for other Federal and State programs like USGS, Parks and Rec’s work, EPA and DWR work.

• Every POTW in the Region already has a permit requirement to sample upstream and downstream. Reducing this obligation to major tributaries and representative locations could save a lot of money just by sampling fewer locations.

• At least half of the cost in the Monitoring Programs is in the sampling and the shipping ice to keep the vials cold. Combining more samples into a single shipping container can greatly reduce costs.

• Every one of the separate Monitoring Programs has its own project management, staff, and own reporting requirements all causing too much over-head.

• Any sampling program these days must go through a Quality Assurance Project Plan (QAPP). The advantage of doing regional monitoring is one QAPP could be done that gets revisited once a year, and can be cited by everyone.

• Reducing the cost of reacting to surprises – the issue of everyone’s monitoring affecting everyone else, particularly if you don’t know about the monitoring until the results are published and they take the form of a 303(d) listing.

• Participation in the Regional Monitoring Program would mean compliance with the receiving water monitoring requirements in NPDES permits, certifications and waivers, and would be done instead of individually monitoring the receiving waters.

7

CM#8446 March 15, 2011 Page 2 The proposed regional surface water quality program could start off for just the middle and upper Santa Ana River Watershed for the following reasons: • Large concentration of organizations monitoring these two watersheds for similar reasons. • Current EPA’s decision to list the Santa Ana River and tributaries for metals. • Fortunate to have an agency like SAWPA who could provide the forum, and the expertise to

facilitate this task. • Large stakeholder interest in these watersheds. • Can be the model for the other upcoming regional monitoring programs in the Santa Ana Region.

(Lower Santa Ana River, Big Bear Watershed, Newport Coast Watershed, and the San Jacinto Watershed).

To explore the interest in this cost savings program, SAWPA sponsored a meeting on January 18, 2011. Presentation speakers included Pavlova Vitale, Regional Board; Ken Schiff, Southern California Coastal Research Project (SCCRP); and Nancy Gardiner, Brown and Caldwell and the lead TMDL sampling firm. Staff also presented and shared a beta version of an interactive GIS tool showing surface water quality data and trends to support the proposed program. The meeting asked the participants if there was enough interest to further pursue such a program. The participants agreed that a regional effort that could save money was worthwhile. On February 17, 2011, SAWPA held another meeting with the group to further define the parameters and discuss potential work tasks. Ken Schiff of SCCRP facilitated the meeting. It was estimated that the cost to develop the program would range from $25,000 - $50,000 for the Monitoring Program Workplan, $25,000 for the QAPP, and $40,000 for the full year of agreement development and administration. These costs would be funded by the participants if interested. Some skepticism and concern still exists by some participants whether the ultimate program will result in a cost savings. The Regional Board staff acknowledges that if the regional program doesn’t provide for a reduction in sampling costs for the participants, they will not require it. The participants asked that for the first year of development, rather than creating a new task force, that funding be used from some of the existing task forces directly impacted such as the Stormwater Quality Standards Task Force, the Middle SAR TMDL Task Force, and the Basin Monitoring Program Task Force, to fund the next fiscal year of development. This approach was deemed acceptable at this stage. The next meeting for this proposed program is scheduled for March 17, 2011 at SAWPA. RESOURCE IMPACTS None. MN:pb

COMMISSION MEMORANDUM NO. 8438 DATE: March 15, 2011 TO: SAWPA Commission SUBJECT: FYE 2012 and 2013 Budget Goals and Objectives

PREPARED BY: Karen Williams, Chief Financial Officer RECOMMENDATION It is recommended that the Commission review and discuss the goals and objectives that will be used in preparing the FYE 2012 and 2013 Budget, and receive and file the budget goals and objectives. DISCUSSION Staff has been working on the budget in a parallel process with the Strategic Plan. Budget goals and objectives have been developed keeping the strategic planning process in mind, and will be presented for review and discussion at the meeting. As in the past, the FYE 2012 and 2013 will be a two-year budget and will be prepared in accordance with the Government Finance Officers Association’s (GFOA) recommended guidelines and practices. Our FYE 2008 and 2009 Budget and FYE 2010 and 2011 Budget both received the GFOA Distinguished Budget Presentation Award. Staff will submit the FYE 2012 and 2013 Budget for this award program after final adoption. RESOURCE IMPACTS None. KW:pb

COMMISSION MEMORANDUM NO. 8439 DATE: March 15, 2011 TO: SAWPA Commission SUBJECT: Request for Proposal (RFP) for Audit Services PREPARED BY: Karen Williams, Chief Financial Officer RECOMMENDATION It is recommended that the Commission authorize the issuance of an RFP for audit services commencing the fiscal year ending June 30, 2011. DISCUSSION A contract for audit services typically covers a period of three years. In keeping with good business practices, the contract should be reviewed for cost and services being evaluated by the agency following contract expiration. The current audit relationship with Teaman, Ramirez & Smith, Inc. has been in force without interruption since the Agency’s audit for the fiscal year ending June 30, 2006. While the relationship has met the Agency’s legal independent audit requirement, it is in our best interest to issue an RFP in order to evaluate current costs being assessed, and overall audit services being rendered at this time. RESOURCE IMPACTS There are no impacts to the current year budget. Anticipated costs for audit services will be included in the FY 2011-12 and FY 2012-13 Budgets. KW:pb

Proposals received after the specified time will not be accepted. Questions regarding this request may be addressed to Karen Williams ([email protected]). INTRODUCTION The Santa Ana Watershed Project Authority (SAWPA) was formed in 1972 to plan and build facilities to protect water quality in the Santa Ana River Watershed. The organization is a joint powers authority comprised of the following five major water districts that share the Santa Ana River Watershed: Eastern Municipal Water District, Inland Empire Utilities Agency (formerly Chino Basin Municipal Water District), Orange County Water District, San Bernardino Valley Municipal Water District, and Western Municipal Water District. The governance structure of SAWPA is made up of an elected Board of Director, an alternate Board of Director (also elected), and a respective General Manger from each of the five water districts forming what is known as the Board of Commissioners. The Santa Ana River is the largest stream system in southern California. The river begins high in the San Bernardino Mountains and flows over 100 miles southwesterly where it discharges to the Pacific Ocean in Huntington Beach. The Santa Ana River Watershed, which receives an average annual rainfall of about 13 inches, covers over 2,650 square miles of widely varying urban, rural and forested terrain. The watershed covers the more populated urban areas of San Bernardino, Riverside and Orange Counties, and a small portion of Los Angeles County and provides a home to over 4.8 million people. SAWPA’s current audit relationship is with Teaman, Ramirez & Smith, Inc., and has been in force without interruption since its audit for the fiscal year ending June 30, 2008. While the relationship has met SAWPA’s legal independent audit requirement, it is in SAWPA’s best interest to issue an RFP in order to evaluate current costs being

COMMISSION MEMORANDUM NO. 8444 DATE: March 15, 2011 TO: SAWPA Commission SUBJECT: Funding Transfer for OWOW PREPARED BY: Mark Norton P.E., Water Resources and Planning Manager Karen Williams, Chief Financial Officer RECOMMENDATION It is recommended that the Commission authorize a transfer of $28,900 from the GIS Initiative Fund No. 391 to Watershed Management Plan (OWOW) Fund No. 373 to help fund OWOW activities. DISCUSSION In September 2007, SAWPA entered into an agreement with the Southeastern California GIS Council (Council) to serve as administrator of an initiative to provide high-quality imagery for GIS analysis to stakeholders throughout the region, including local governments, regional agencies, and special districts. Purchasing imagery as a group provided better quality imagery at a lower cost for stakeholders in the region. Staff established a segregated fund (No. 391) to track costs associated with this effort. All costs, including staff costs, were paid by the GIS Council stakeholders. This effort came to a close in February 2009, and all outstanding costs were paid. Because of the economic climate, further imagery purchases have been put on hold. As of January 31, 2011, the fund balance in this account is $28,900. These funds have been earned by and belong to SAWPA. Because there is no planned activity in this fund, staff would like to transfer the funds to the Watershed Management Plan (OWOW Fund No. 393) for use in that effort. RESOURCE IMPACTS With this transfer, sufficient funds will now be available to continue work on the Integrated Regional Water Management Plan (OWOW). MN:KW:pb

SAWPA Commission __ Workshop Minutes MARCH 1, 2011 COMMISSION MEMBERS PRESENT

REPRESENTING

Terry Catlin, Chair Inland Empire Utilities Agency Phil Anthony Orange County Water District Don Galleano Western Municipal Water District Ron Sullivan Eastern Municipal Water District George Aguilar San Bernardino Valley MWD OTHERS PRESENT Tom Evans Western Municipal Water District Mark Bulot San Bernardino Valley MWD Michael Markus Orange County Water District Celeste Cantú General Manager Rich Haller Ex. Mgr. Engineering and Operations Larry McKenney Executive Counsel Mark Norton Manager of Water Resources and Planning Jeff Beehler Program Manager David Ruhl Program Manager Karen Williams Chief Financial Officer Dean Unger Information Services and Technology Manager Patti Bonawitz Clerk of the Board

The Commission Workshop of the Santa Ana Watershed Project Authority was called to order at 9:37 a.m. by Chair Terry Catlin at the Santa Ana Watershed Project Authority Office, 11615 Sterling Avenue, Riverside, CA 92503. Chair Catlin led the flag salute. Chair Catlin called for public comments; however, there were no comments received. WORKSHOP DISCUSSION AGENDA STATUS OF STRATEGIC PLANNING PROCESS AND DISCUSSION OF DRAFT GOALS AND SWOT ANALYSIS Celeste Cantú presented the Public Policy Institute of California’s (PPIC) book entitled, Managing California’s Water: From Conflict to Reconciliation, as well as a copy of the Executive Summary to each Commissioner. Salvador Lopez incorporated the book’s principles into the strategic planning workshop, noting that the challenges mentioned in the book closely align with OWOW’s “Four Horsemen.” The book also alludes to five major crises that await and five promising directions in water policy. Discussion ensued regarding the purpose of this book (to influence policy at the State level), its principles, PPIC’s desire to implement a nine regions concept throughout the State (similar to the SAWPA model in the Santa Ana River Watershed), and the concepts of leadership vs. management. Commissioner Aguilar commented that it is much better for SAWPA to serve in the leadership role. Celeste Cantú invited each of the Commissioners to attend the PPIC’s Southern California book rollout event on March 28 at Cucamonga Valley Water District’s Frontier Project. Salvador Lopez reviewed the vision and mission statements, the six draft goals, and the objectives tied to each of those goals. Our vision defines what we stand for; our mission defines our purpose and role. The six goals align with some of the Pillars – water supply, water quality, salt balance, habitat protection, public outreach/ education, water resources/land use planning, and climate change. Suggestions regarding the draft goals were noted as follows: • The brine line should be a goal by itself as it is the most important thing SAWPA does. It is a real and big

project that SAWPA is responsible for. • The goal “Achieve optimal use of local water supplies and reduce reliance on imported water…” doesn’t

make sense. SAWPA needs to do real projects…we need dust! • Don’t use the word “promote.”

41

The Commission used these draft goals to frame a discussion of how SAWPA can best provide value to the member agencies and the watershed without over-reaching its strengths or resources. The Commissioners emphasized SAWPA’s desired roles with capital projects, the Inland Empire Brine Line, improving water supply reliability in the watershed, and working constructively with the Regional Water Quality Control Board. The following comments were noted regarding the goals and objectives: • SAWPA is not to be set up as a “super” agency, but rather as a forum to achieve multiple benefit goals. • Water supply – we should promote inter-ties and other connections to make us drought proof. • SAWPA needs to be a leadership agency – lead the discussions, not manage them. • We need to stick to the original reason why SAWPA was created – not for dictatorship, but rather for

leadership. • SAWPA should not be a regional authority. • SAWPA should lead people to do the right thing – what projects do we need collectively to make us a lot

stronger as a whole? • Regarding the “water quality tree”, it should list the invasive plant specifically, i.e., Arundo donax removal

as we’ve been doing that for years. • Make the strategic “trees” more actionable to what SAWPA really is doing. • Change the language, “manager of waterways to protect all beneficial uses…” Due to time constraints, the Commission requested that Salvador Lopez send them his PowerPoint presentation to review and comment. Chair Catlin stated that it would have been more beneficial if the Commission could have had something in advance, so they could have come to the meeting better prepared. Those comments were echoed by both Commissioners Anthony and Aguilar. CONSENT CALENDAR

Upon motion by Commissioner Anthony, seconded by Commissioner Aguilar, the motion unanimously carried:

11-03-01 MOVED, approval of the Consent Calendar.

There being no further business for review, Chair Catlin adjourned the meeting at 11:03 a.m. APPROVED: _______________________________________ March 15, 2011 Terry Catlin, Chair 2011-3-1 Com Min

DISCUSSION The 8.0 mgd WRCRWA treatment plant is rapidly approaching capacity. The average daily flow was 6.0 in November, and was 6.6 mgd in December 2010. At the February 23, 2011 Executive Committee meeting, JCSD proposed to fund $400,000 of the $500,000 needed for the next phase of planning and engineering. The cities of Norco and Corona proposed to share the remaining $100,000. A budget amendment was proposed by the Executive Committee in the amount of $500,000 to be considered by the WRCRWA Board of Directors at its meeting of March 31, 2011. However, each member agency must approve the proposed amendment before it can become effective. RESOURCE IMPACTS The Executive Committee proposes funding based generally on new capacity needed by proposed wastewater contributors as follows: HGSD $ 0 WMWD $ 0 SAWPA $ 0 JCSD $ 400,000 Norco $ 50,000 Corona $ 50,000 RH:pb

COMMISSION MEMORANDUM NO. 8440 DATE: March 15, 2011 TO: SAWPA Commission SUBJECT: Inter-Fund Borrowing – January, 2011 PREPARED BY: Karen Williams, Chief Financial Officer RECOMMENDATION It is recommended that the Commission receive and file the informational report on short-term, cash-flow inter-fund borrowing. DISCUSSION On December 13, 2005, the Commission approved Resolution No. 452, Inter-Fund and Inter-Project Loan Policy. Staff was directed to bring back an accounting of the loans each month for review when the total exceeded $250,000 in aggregate. The following projects, with negative cash flow, are listed below with the amounts borrowed from SAWPA General Fund Reserves in January 2011. The total amount borrowed is over the aggregate $250,000 amount recommended in Resolution No. 452, Inter-Fund and Inter-Project Loan Policy. The Commission has requested that this item be brought back each month as an informational item when the loan amount is under the $250,000 aggregate amount.

COMMISSION MEMORANDUM NO. 8443 DATE: March 15, 2011 TO: SAWPA Commission SUBJECT: FYE 2011 Second Quarter Budget vs. Actual Variance Report PREPARED BY: Karen Williams, Chief Financial Officer RECOMMENDATION It is recommended that the Commission receive and file the informational report on FYE 2011 Second Quarter Budget vs. Actual Variance Report. DISCUSSION Staff has developed a Budget vs. Actual Variance Report and will be presenting this report on a quarterly basis. Attached is the FYE 2011 Budget vs. Actual Variance Report through December 31, 2010. The Agency’s net revenue was -$454,784, which was $1,360,771 or 75% more favorable than budgeted. Several significant items comprise the majority of this favorable variance. Operating Revenue was $462,463 more than budgeted. This favorable variance is due to an increase in BOD and TSS concentrations in SARI discharge from what was budgeted. Operating Expense was $10,514,048 less than budgeted. This favorable variance is due to the repairs of Reaches 4-A and 4-B not starting until Spring 2011. Currently, design documents for the project are 90% complete. Bids were invited in November and we hope to award the construction contract in early 2011. Non-Operating Revenue/Expense was -$9,615,740 less than budgeted. This unfavorable variance mainly is due to not needing reserves to fund the CIP for the reasons stated above. Because the use of reserves for the CIP is less than budgeted, reserve balances are higher than what was budgeted. Favorable Revenue Variances Listed below are explanations of favorable variances of $150,000 or more for individual revenue categories: Discharge Fees – The 8% variance of $462,463 is due to higher concentrations of BOD and TSS than what was projected in the budget. Other Income – The 100% variance of $343,959 is due to the unbudgeted sale of BOD treatment capacity rights from EnerTech. These funds were contributed to the OCSD Future Capacity Reserve account. Unfavorable Revenue Variances Listed below are explanations of unfavorable variances of $150,000 or more for individual revenue categories: Interest and Investments – The 16% variance of $209,214 is due to lower than budgeted interest earnings. In the past year, interest rates have declined to below 1% and have remained below that amount. Staff has invested in agency securities to increase returns, but those returns have decreased as well.

82

CM#8443 March 15, 2011 Page 2 Use of Reserves – The 94% variance of $9,349,025 is due to not having started the repair work for Reaches 4-A and 4-B until spring 2011. Because the use of reserves for the CIP is less than budgeted, reserve balances are higher than what was budgeted. Favorable Expense Variances Listed below are explanations of favorable variances of $150,000 or more for individual expense categories: Labor – The 14% variance of $163,194 is due to not having hired two full-time positions that are included in the budget. Consulting & Professional Services – The 39% variance of $727,094 is due to the GIS Initiative project not moving forward as expected due to lack of development within the last few years, and the SARI Reaches 4-A and 4-B repairs not starting until Spring 2011. Repair & Maintenance – The 71% variance of $250,295 is due to the majority of the line cleaning program will not take place until February and March 2011. While SAWPA does a portion of the scheduled line cleaning on a quarterly basis, staff has achieved significant cost savings by implementing changes in traffic control planning, debris hauling and disposal, and water truck costs. We also were able to obtain lower hourly rates for line cleaning. These significant cost savings along with the concentration on cleaning siphons in the system have reduced costs for the fiscal year. Construction – The 95% variance of $9,156,706 is due to not having started the repair work for Reaches 4-A and 4-B until spring 2011. Unfavorable Expense Variances Listed below are explanations of favorable variances of $150,000 or more for individual expense categories: Contributions to Reserves – The 16% variance of $338,957 is due to having received funds from the sale of BOD treatment capacity rights from EnerTech that were unbudgeted and were contributed to the OCSD Future Capacity Reserve account. RESOURCE IMPACTS None.

GENERAL MANAGER’S REPORT

March, 2011

Summary of highlights of major activities and/or projects addressed in February Issues ready for action by the Commission are agendized separately

OWOW 2011Conference: We are on our way planning the”Working Together for a Sustainable Future” conference. OWOW Steering Committee re appointments: Coordinating and supporting the process of the COGs and Board of Supervisors in selecting their representatives. Strategic Planning: We continue to refine work to bring to the Commission for review. This has been a learning process for all those involved and I appreciate all the time spent by others to help develop a vision for SAWPA and define what SAWPA should be. Proposition 84: About 50% of the bonds needed to fund both Proposition 84 Planning and Implementation grant programs have been acquired. The focus now is on getting the planning grants approved and the agreements processed to provide justification to the Dept of Finance that more bonds need to be sold. Brine Line SRF loan: We are nearing the finish line in receiving approval for the State Water Board to approve our loan that will allow us to perform needed repairs and add life to the line. PPIC Program: SAWPA has assisted the PPIC in identifying participants in their book roll out. This is scheduled for March 28 at the Frontier Project in Rancho Cucamonga. California Indicators Symposium, USC: SAWPA presented on the OWOW process and SAWPA in general. Legislative: All bills are filed at this date, but many are still spot bills. We will be tracking those related to our interest in this watershed. Budget: This is budget season and we will be coming before the Commission are several occasions as we proceed. EJ Conference June 28: SAWPA is assisting the Cal State University Water Resources Institute in presenting an environmental justice conference at the Frontier Project. The conference will bring down funders to present funding opportunities in this area.

Proposition 1E: SAWPA is assisting the process in getting the work out to others and helping them to make sure their projects are on the OWOW project list as required by Proposition 1E.
