The purpose of the Order was to minimize, if not prevent, sanitary sewer overflows (SSOs) from occurring and potentially causing a nuisance, contaminating ground water, and/or contaminating the waterways of the United States. As owner of a sanitary sewer system greater than one mile in length, the City was subject to Order No. 2006-0003-DWQ.
Order No. 2006-0003-DWQ required the City to develop and implement a Sewer System Management Plan (SSMP) and to recertify it every 5 years. The City's SSMP was approved by the City Council in August 2009, and it was subsequently recertified in April 2014 and June 2019. The "Audit and Certification" element of the SSMP also required the City to conduct internal audits of the SSMP every two years to assess its performance.
On December 6, 2022, the SWRCB adopted Water Quality Order No. 2022-0103-DWQ, entitled Statewide General Waste Discharge Requirements for Sanitary Sewers Systems (Order No. 2022-0103-DWQ), which superseded Order No. 2006-0003-DWQ. Order No. 2022-0103-DWQ requires public agencies that own or operate sanitary sewer systems to continue implementing an SSMP and report all sanitary sewer spills to the SWRCB's online California Integrated Water Quality System (CIWQS) Sanitary Sewer System Database. Order No. 2022-0103-DWQ states that the SSMP must be recertified by the City Council by August 2, 2025, and that it must be updated and recertified every six years thereafter to incorporate any significant program changes. Internal audits of the SSMP will also be required every three years to assess its performance.
As a member of the Consolidated Sewer Maintenance District of Los Angeles County (District), the City's Sanitary sewer system is maintained and operated by the District. The Public Works Department works in conjunction with District staff in the assessment of the SSMP, including the completion of the required internal audits. The City is also part of the District's Accumulative Capital Outlay (ACO). The District's ACO pays for sewer pipe replacements, relief sewer construction, and major improvements to sewage pumping stations.
CONCLUSION:
Approving and recertifying the SSMP will enable the City to remain in compliance with the requirements of Order No. 2022-0103-DWQ.

Introduction
Introduction
Regulatory Overview
On May 2, 2006, the California State Water Resources Control Board adopted Order No. 2006- 0003 (State Order) to create an equitable statewide mechanism to manage all publicly owned wastewater collection agencies with more than a mile of pipeline, to reduce the number and severity of Sanitary Sewer Overflows (SSOs), and to set up a central depository for online reporting of SSOs when they do occur. On July 30, 2013, Attachment A to the Order was promulgated and became effective on September 9, 2013 and is known as Attachment A, SWRCB Order No. WOO 2013 -0058 -EXEC, amending the Monitoring and Reporting Program for Statewide General Waste Discharge Requirements for Sanitary Sewer Systems (together these documents constitute the "SSS WDR"). This report was prepared pursuant to the requirements included in the State Water Resources Control Board Order No. 2022-0103-DWQ — Statewide General Waste Discharge Requirements for Sanitary Sewer Systems (General Order).
A principal element of the State Order is the requirement that the collection agencies adopt and maintain a management plan for the system, referred to as a Sewer System Management Plan or SSMP.
The City of Bell Gardens adopted the SSMP on August 10, 2009, through Resolution No. 2009-29, and recertified the SSMP in April 2014 and June 2019, in accordance with the State Order.
The State Order establishes the following goals:
1. The SSMP must document the organization's legal authority to achieve the goals of the SSMP as demonstrated through City of Bell Gardens' ordinances, agreements and other legally binding instruments.
2. The SSMP must identify the City of Bell Gardens organization and staff responsible for implementing and maintaining the SSMP.
3. The SSMP is to provide a plan and schedule to properly manage, operate, and maintain all parts of the City of Bell Gardens wastewater conveyance system.
Additionally, the State Order requires City of Bell Gardens staff perform periodic internal audits of the SSMP focusing on evaluating the effectiveness of the SSMP and staff's compliance with its requirements, as shown in Section D-13 of the State Order. The internal audits must be performed at least every three (3) years with the audit report kept on file at City of Bell Gardens.
The SSMP must be updated every six (6) years, must contain any significant program changes, and be re -certified by the City of Bell Gardens. To complete the re -certification process, City of Bell Gardens staff must enter the information on the Online SSO Database and mail a hard copy to the State Water Resources Control Board.

City of Bell Gardens
Sanitary Sewer Management Plan Introduction
The City of Bell Gardens is a part of the Consolidated Sewer Maintenance District (CSMD), and currently contracts with Los Angeles County Department of Public Works (LADPW) for their sanitary sewer cleaning and industrial waste enforcement. Additionally, as a part of the CSMD, the City is included in the County's Accumulative Capital Outlay Program (ACO). The ACO identifies, rehabilitates and reconstructs sewer pipes within the CSMD that have structural deficiencies. However, it is still the responsibility of the City to implement recommendations identified herein that are not covered by CSMD.
As described below, there are 11 major categories in the SSMP and over thirty-six subcategories. Additionally, a comprehensive audit program includes evaluation elements such as document control, training, objectives, data management, audit procedures, and results approach outcomes.

City of Bell Gardens
Sanitary Sewer Management Plan Introduction
Prohibitions
Section C of the WDR identifies and prohibits SSOs that result in a discharge of untreated or partially treated wastewater to waters of the United States and/or creates a nuisance as defined in California Water Code (CWC) Section 13050(m) is prohibited.
CWC section 13050, subdivision (m), defines nuisance as anything which meets all of the following requirements:
• Is injurious to health, or is indecent or offensive to the senses, or an obstruction to the free use of property, so as to interfere with the comfortable enjoyment of life or property.
• Affects at the same time an entire community or neighborhood, or any considerable number of persons, although the extent of the annoyance or damage inflicted upon individuals may be unequal.
• Occurs during, or as a result of, the treatment or disposal of wastes.
Since the State Water Board has not specifically defined SSOs that are subject to this prohibition and criteria for determining whether or not an SSO violates the above prohibition, the State and/or Regional Water Board will consider potential violations on a case -by -case basis. In general, if an SSO results in a discharge to a surface water or drainage channel, the Water Board will consider this a discharge to Waters of the US. Additionally, if an SSO reaches an enclosed storm drainage pipe, and the SSO was not fully contained, captured, and pumped back into the sanitary sewer system, the Water Board will generally assume that the SSO reached a water of the US. In both cases the SSO will probably result in a violation of the WDR prohibition.
Determining whether an SSO created a nuisance is even more problematic and subjective.
Again, since the State Water Board has not specifically defined SSOs that are subject to the nuisance prohibition and criteria for determining whether or not an SSO is in violation of this prohibition, the State and/or Regional Water Board will consider violations on a case -by -case basis.
In both cases, while reporting SSOs, determining whether or not the SSO violated the prohibition is not up to the reporting Agency. It is the enforcement agency's responsibility to determine compliance with the WDR.

Sanitary Sewer Management Plan Section I
Section I — Goals
Waste Discharge Requirements
This section describes the goals of the Sewer System Management Plan (SSMP), which is to provide a documented plan that describes all collection system activities and programs employed by an agency to ensure proper management of all collection system assets.
Implementing an SSMP will ensure proper management, operation, and maintenance of all parts of the sanitary sewer system, ultimately helping to reduce and prevent SSOs, as well as mitigate any SSOs that do occur including meeting all applicable regulatory notification and reporting requirements. The box below contains specific language regarding the Goals requirement of the WDR.
Commitment to continual improvement will also ensure that the SSMP is both a living and sustainable document that is continually updated, revised, and tailored towards the City's needs. The City is required to comply with the "State Water Resources Control Board (SWRCB), Order No. 2006-0030 DWQ" (Order) on General Waste Discharge Requirements for publicly owned sewage collection agencies having more than one mile of collection pipelines. SWRCB Order No. WQO 2013 -0058 -EXEC, amending the Monitoring and Reporting Program for Statewide General Waste Discharge Requirements for Sanitary Sewer Systems (together these documents constitute the "SSS WDR"). This report was prepared pursuant to the requirements included in the State Water Resources Control Board Order No. 2022-0103-DWQ — Statewide General Waste Discharge Requirements for Sanitary Sewer Systems (General Order).
This section describes the City's stated goals of the SSMP and is intended to clarify the City's desired level of service that it is providing to its customers. Typically, high level statements regarding the overall management of a system includes a vision and mission statement, as well as a statement of short- and long-term goals.
Statement of Goals
a. The City will comply with the requirements of the WDR, including requirements for reporting, developing, implementing and updating a SSMP; b. City shall take all feasible steps to eliminate SSOs. In the event that an SSO does occur, the City will continue to employ the steps to contain and mitigate the impacts of an SSO.
c. In the event of an SSO, the City will continue to take reasonable steps to prevent untreated or partially treated wastewater from discharging from storm drains into 4

Sanitary Sewer Management Plan Section 1
flood control channels or waters of the United States by blocking the storm drainage system and by removing the wastewater from the storm drains. d. The City will continue to always try to identify the cause or likely cause of the discharge event;
e. When a sanitary sewer overflow occurs, the Enrollee will continue to take all feasible steps and necessary remedial actions to 1) control or limit the volume of untreated or partially treated wastewater discharged, 2) terminate the discharge, and 3) recover as much of the wastewater discharged as possible for proper disposal, including any wash down water.
f. The City will continue to provide adequate capacity to convey base flows and peak flows, including flows related to wet weather events. Capacity shall meet or exceed the design criteria as defined in the Enrollee's System Evaluation and Capacity Assurance Plan for all parts of the sanitary sewer system owned or operated by the City.

Section III - Legal Authority
Waste Discharge Requirements
This section of the SSMP discusses the City's Legal Authority, including its municipal code and any agreements with other agencies. This section fulfills the legal authority requirements as described in the Waste Discharge Requirements (WDR). The box below contains specific language regarding the Legal Authority requirement of the WDR.
D.13 (iii) Legal Authority: Each Enrollee must
demonstrate, through sanitary sewer system use
ordinances, service agreements, or other legally
binding procedures, that it possesses the necessary
legal authority to:
(a) Prevent illicit discharges into its sanitary sewer system (examples may include Infiltration/Inflow (I/I),
stormwater, chemical dumping, unauthorized debris
and cut roots, etc.);
(b) Require that sewers and connections be properly
designed and constructed;
(c) Ensure access for maintenance, inspection, or repairs for portions of the lateral owned or maintained by the
Public Agency;
(d) Limit the discharge of fats, oils, and grease and other debris that may cause blockages, and
(e) Enforce any violation of its sewer ordinances
Municipal Code
After careful review of Chapter 11 (Health and Sanitation), Section 11.08 entitled "Sanitary Sewers and Industrial Wastes", the City of Bell Gardens has adopted Division 2, entitled "Sanitary Sewers and Industrial Waste" of Title 20, Utilities of the Los Angeles County (LACO) Code by reference. The City's Wastewater Ordinance is included in Appendix A of this SSMP.
The following sections are excerpts from LACO code's Title 20 and LACO Plumbing Code (Title 28) that address various issues required by the WDR and are provided for reference only. 11
City of Bell Gardens
Sanitary Sewer Management Plan Section III
Prevention of Illicit Discharges
The LACO Plumbing Code Title 28 has language prohibiting illicit discharges. The specific purpose is to prevent the discharge of any pollutant into the sanitary sewer system that would obstruct or damage the collection system, interfere with treatment, or threaten harm to human health or the environment. Examples of discharges covered are listed below. o Storm water and I/I — The LACO Plumbing Code Title 28 (Sections 306.2, 714.2, and 1101.2) prohibits the unauthorized discharge of rain, surface, or subsurface water into the collection system. The Consolidated Sewer Maintenance District (CSMD) has an I/I control program under the CSMD's ongoing sewer line cleaning and maintenance program, which includes closed-circuit television (CCTV) and other mechanisms to detect I/I. By ordinance, the LACO Board of Supervisors has established a financial plan to ensure capital replacement or rehabilitation of sewer lines prone to I/I within the CSMD (LACO Code, Section 20.40.045).
o Industrial Waste —The LACO Code (Section 20.20.160) defines industrial waste as "any and all waste substances, liquid or solid, except domestic sewage, and includes among other things radioactive wastes and explosive, noxious or toxic gas when present in the sewage system." Section 20.36.010 prohibits the discharge or deposit at any time, or allows the continued existence of a deposit of any material which may create a public nuisance, or menace to the public health or safety, or which may pollute underground or surface waters, or which may cause damage to any storm drain channel or public or private property.
o Other Discharges — The illegal dumping of offensive or damaging substances such as chemical debris, etc., which are considered inflows, are prohibited by Los Angeles County Code, Section 20.36.010.
Proper Design and Construction of Sewers and Connections The LACO Code sections 20.32.330 and 20.32.340 require that the design of new sewer lines be in conformity with requirements of Part 3 of Chapter 20.32 of the Code. Similarly, Section
20.32.350 of the LACO Code requires that the design of new house laterals conform to the requirements of Part 3, Chapter 20.32 of the Code unless otherwise covered by the LACO Plumbing Code, Title 28. The collection sewer system, by law (LACO Code 20.32.580), is required to conform to all the requirements prescribed by division 2 of the LACO Code, by the Standard Specifications for Public Works Construction (Green Book) and by the Special Provisions and Standard Plans. The inspection and construction of mainline sewers to ensure proper construction is covered under Section 20.32.590 of the LACO Code. The construction of house laterals is covered under the LACO Plumbing Code.
The City has the responsibility for the review and approval of plans and specifications for the construction and dedication of sanitary sewers, house laterals and sewer -related appurtenances through the development processes of the Department of Public Works, Development Engineering Division based on the 2019 SSMP. LA County Code Title 20 is utilized for design and construction of new house laterals and construction of collection system. Since the 2019 SSMP, the ownus for overseeing and approving design and construction of connections and sewers is now Community Development.
12
City of Bell Gardens
Sanitary Sewer Management Plan Section III
Lateral Maintenance Access
The LACO Code Section 20.24.080 states that "AII house laterals, industrial connection sewers, and appurtenances thereto existing as of January 23, 1953, or thereafter constructed, needs to be maintained by the owner of the property served in a safe and sanitary condition, and all devices or safeguards which are required by this Division 2 for the operation thereof needs to be maintained in good working order."
Limit Discharge of FOG and Other Debris
The Director of Public Works under the LACO Plumbing Code, Title 28, has the legal authority to require the installation of grease interceptors at restaurants and other food establishments that generate grease. Section 20.36.560 of LACO Code also gives the Director of Public Works the authority to require the installation of treatment facilities, including grease interceptors at any facility that generates FOG in the amount that will damage or increase the maintenance costs of the sewer collection system. A list of these grease producing facilities are included as Appendix B.
The LACO Code Section 20.24.090 gives the Director of Public Works the legal authority to inspect mainline sewers, interceptors, etc., as often as he deems necessary, to ascertain whether such facilities are maintained and operated in accordance with the provisions of Division 2 of the LACO Code. Section 20.36.400 of the LACO Code prohibits the discharge of FOG and other substances that may, among other things, clog, obstruct, fill, or necessitate frequent repairs, cleaning out, or flushing of sewer facilities in the sewer system.
Enforcement Measures
Under Section 20.24.100 of the LACO Code, the Director of Public Works is empowered to enforce all of the requirements prescribed in Division 2 of the LACO Code and in accordance with Section 20.24.110 may delegate this authority. LACO Code Section 20.24.160 allows criminal penalties for any violations of Division 2 of the LACO Code. Additionally, the municipal code includes enforcement measures in Section 11.08.090 (Violations and Penalty) which states:
Every person who violates any of the provisions of the sanitary sewer and industrial waste ordinance of the city of Bell Gardens is guilty of a misdemeanor and each such person shall be deemed guilty of a separate offense for each and every day or portion thereof during which any violation of any of the provisions of the ordinance is committed, continued or permitted, and upon conviction is punishable by a fine of not exceeding $1,000 or by imprisonment in the county jail for a period not exceeding six months, or by both such fine and imprisonment.
Agreements with Other Agencies
As noted in the municipal code section of this SSMP, the requirements for legal authority are fulfilled by the adoption of Division 2, Title 20 of the LACO Code in the City's municipal code.
However, the City has an additional agreement with the County of Los Angeles which is described in this section.
13
City of Bell Gardens
Sanitary Sewer Management Plan Section III
Agreement with the County of Los Angeles
The City has entered into an agreement with the County of Los Angeles for the conveyance, treatment and disposal of wastewater.
Control of Infiltration/Inflow from Satellite Collection Systems Sewer facilities from the CSMD that drain into the City of Bell Gardens sewer facilities have been identified and therefore can be considered a satellite collection system of the City. All monitoring, evaluating and reporting of discharge measurements is the responsibility of the County according to the agreement with the County of Los Angeles mentioned in the previous section.

Sanitary Sewer Management Plan
Section IV - Operations and Maintenance Program
Section IV
Waste Discharge Requirements
This section of the SSMP discusses the existing City operations, maintenance and other related measures and activities. As the WDR requirements continue to unfold, the City should consider developing a basic Operations and Maintenance program to supplement LADPW's program.
Many of these recommendations have been outlined in the Sanitary Sewer Master Plan, the results which can be considered as additions or in some cases replacing the current operations and maintenance program. This section fulfills the Operation and Maintenance Program SSMP requirement as described in the Waste Discharge Requirements. The box below contains specific language regarding the Operations and Maintenance Activities requirement of the WDR.
D.13 (iv) Operation and Maintenance Program: The SSMP must include those elements listed below that are appropriate and applicable to the Enrollee's system:
• Maintain an up-to-date map of the sanitary sewer system, showing all gravity line segments and manholes, pumping facilities, pressure pipes and valves, and applicable stormwater conveyance facilities;
• Describe routine preventative operation and maintenance activities by staff and contractors, including a system for scheduling regular maintenance and cleaning of the sanitary sewer system with more cleaning and maintenance targeted at known problem areas. The Preventative Maintenance (PM) program should have a system to document scheduled and conducted activities, such as work orders;
• Develop a rehabilitation and replacement plan to identify and prioritize system deficiencies and implement short-term and long-term rehabilitation actions to address each deficiency. The program should include regular visual and TV inspections of manholes and sewer pipes, and a system for ranking the condition of sewer pipes and scheduling rehabilitation. Rehabilitation and replacement should focus on sewer pipes that are at risk of collapse or prone to more frequent blockages due to pipe defects. Finally, the rehabilitation on and replacement plan should include a capital improvement plan that addresses proper management and protection of the infrastructure assets. The plan shall include a time schedule for implementing the short -and long — term plans plus a schedule for developing the funds needed for the capital improvement plan; • Provide training on a regular basis for staff in sanitary sewer system operations and maintenance and require contractors to be appropriately trained; and
• Provide equipment and replacement part inventories, including identification of critical replacement parts.

Sanitary Sewer Management Plan Section IV
Preventive Maintenance Program
As part of the CSMD, the City relies on LADPW for provide maintenance for the sewer system on an as needed basis. According to LADPW, CSMD agreement includes:
• Sewer Manhole (MH) Inspection
• MH repair and adjustment
• Sewer line cleaning
• Point repairs
• Sewer saddle installation
• Service request regarding sewer odors, noisy manholes, insects, etc. • Operation and Maintenance of Pump Stations (PS), where applicable • Regulatory requirements compliance
• WDR related issues
(a) CCTV inspection
(b) Pump Station inspection
During the last CCTV survey, blockages were identified in sewer pipes at various locations due to tree roots or grease. The City provided LADPW with a list of these pipes and LADPW has cleared these blockages and cleaned the pipes.
LADPW also has a regular cleaning schedule for the sewer pipes within the City. Sewer pipe segments and siphons have been placed on a routine cleaning program with a frequency that ranges from 30 days to 180 days depending on the severity of maintenance issues impacting the pipes. This cleaning schedule is included in this report as Appendix E.

The LADPW is planning several short-term and long-term sewer facilities assessment and rehabilitation programs called the Accumulative Capital Outlay Program (ACO Program). In 1987, the County Board of Supervisors established the Accumulative Capital Outlay (ACO) Fund to finance sewer rehabilitation projects within the CSMD.
In compliance with WDR's all sewer pipe segments within the CSMD found to have structural deficiencies will continue to be rehabilitated or reconstructed under LADPW's ACO program.
Contingency Equipment and Replacement Inventories
LADPW has a comprehensive equipment maintenance program. Equipment is regularly checked, adjusted, repaired or replaced as necessary. However, major fixed assets are replaced when they meet or exceed the Department's established fixed assets replacement criteria based on age of the equipment, mileage, hours of use, repair history etc.
Equipment categorized as class 9 (less than 1/4 ton) or lower is automatically replaced by the Fleet Management Group of the Department when it meets the replacement criteria. The request to replace equipment higher than class 9 is made as part of the CSMD annual budget. In addition to the above replacement criteria, an analysis and recommendation by trained staff of LADPW and approval by Department administration are required to replace equipment higher than 17

Sanitary Sewer Management Plan
class 9.
Section IV
These criteria notwithstanding, a piece of equipment can also be replaced if its reliability or safety of operation becomes questionable. New and additional equipment are also acquired when fully justified based on increased workload, new activity, additional personnel, technological improvements, time savings, cost savings, employee or public safety requirements etc.
Training
All personnel responsible for the operation and maintenance of the sewer collection system are required to undergo formal training, as per SWRCB requirements. Therefore, LADPW staff responsible for the operation and maintenance of the sewer collection system and the inspectors attend formalized collection training classes or seminars given by other agencies including California Occupational, Safety and Health Administration (CALOSHA), California Water Environment Association (CWEA), International Brotherhood of Electrical Workers etc.
This is to keep them abreast with the latest technology in the industry on how to safely and efficiently carry out their tasks. The District also utilizes informal training approaches, such as tailgate meetings, monthly safety meetings and apprenticeship training program from higher level staff
Outreach to Plumbers and Building Contractors
Additionally, only companies with well trained and experienced staff are considered for either emergency SSO mitigation or sewer construction or rehabilitation work as required by CSMD. 18

Design and Construction Standards and Specifications
City of Bell Gardens utilizes LACDPW design standards. The LACDPW has Standard Plans and Specifications for the Construction of Sanitary Sewers and appurtenances to ensure that sewer lines and connections are properly designed and constructed. The LACDPW specifications by reference incorporate the Standard Plans and Specifications for Public Works Construction, Special Provisions, and Standard Drawings. In addition, LACDPW has other publications such as the Private Contract Sanitary Sewer Procedural Manual, Guidelines for the Design of Pump Stations etc. to ensure consistency in the design of collection systems within the CSMD. To ensure that sewer facilities are properly designed and constructed, LACDPW requires that plans are designed by licensed engineers and provides thorough review of plans prior to approval for and conducting inspection of construction work.
The City has entered into an agreement with Los Angeles County for the enforcement of the City's wastewater ordinance. Since the City has adopted Division 2, titled "Sanitary Sewers and Industrial Waste" of Title 20, Utilities of the Los Angeles County (LACO) Code by reference, and is a part of the CSMD, the County Department of Public Works retains full control and discretion over the manner of providing services related to the City's sanitary sewer system. Therefore, all design and construction standards and specifications are contained within the LACO Code.
The following section is an excerpt from LACO code's Title 20 and LACO Plumbing Code (Title 28) that apply to the proper design and construction of sewers and connections:
24
City of Bell Gardens
Sanitary Se er
gement Plan ecta V
The LACO Code sections 20.32.330 and 20.32.340 require that the design of new sewer lines be in conformity with requirements of Part 3 of Chapter 20.32 of the Code.
Similarly, Section 20.32.350 of the LACO Code requires that the design of new house laterals conform to the requirements of Part 3, Chapter 20.32 of the Code unless otherwise covered by the LACO Plumbing Code, Title 28. The collection sewer system, by law (LACO Code 20.32.580), is required to conform to all the requirements prescribed by division 2 of the LACO Code, by the Standard Specifications for Public Works Construction (Green Book) and by the Special Provisions and Standard Plans. The inspection and construction of mainline sewers to ensure proper construction is covered under Section 20.32.590 of the LACO Code. The construction of house laterals is also covered under the LACO Plumbing Code.
Procedures and Standards for Inspection and Testing New and Rehabilitated Sewer Facilities
The City of Bell Gardens follows LACDPW construction standard guidelines. The LACDPW provides inspection for the installation of new and rehabilitation of deteriorated collection sewer facilities in the City. The LACDPW inspectors are well trained in pipeline construction.
They attend training classes and educational seminars to stay familiar with advancements in the industry. The inspectors are also provided with adequate materials to perform their jobs, including the Standard Specification for Public Works Construction Inspection Manual, the Green Book etc. LACDPW requires the preparation and submittal of "As -Built" plans of completed projects prior to final approval and acceptance of the project as public infrastructure.
The SMD policy also requires that all new or rehabilitated pumping stations be inspected by experienced SMD Electro-mechanics prior to acceptance for maintenances by the Districts. The SMD also require all sewer lines rehabilitated by lining be televised and the tape reviewed by Districts' personnel prior to acceptance of completed project. 25

City of BeII Gardens
Sanitary Sewer Management Plan Section VI
Overflow Response Procedure
The City Bell Gardens is part of the CSMD. If a report of an SSO is received by staff at the City of Bell Gardens, City staff immediately investigate the spill to determine if it is an SSO and then contacts the appropriate LADPW staff. LADPW provides 24 -hour emergency services to investigate and/or correct complaints from citizens. The LADPW 24 -hour emergency telephone number is 1 -800 -675 -HELP (4357). Personnel are available 24- hours each day of the year to receive and act on any calls or automated alarms related to problems in the sewer system, including overflows. During business hours, emergency calls are received by the Public Works Operator. The Operator will call and dispatch the nearest Sewer Maintenance crew to the problem site. For after hour emergencies, the Operator will call the Sewer Maintenance Superintendents or Supervisors in the order listed on the Emergency Home Telephone List. The Superintendent or Supervisor who receives the emergency call will investigate the complaint and take appropriate action including immediate dispatch of a standby crew with necessary equipment to remediate of the problem.
As contained in the CSMD overflow response instruction manual, the crew responding to an overflow emergency is required to stop the overflow, contain it if possible, and ensure that the facility or area is cleaned up and returned to normal operation. Residents in the immediate vicinity of the overflow are informed of the cause of the problem and the remedial action taken. The County Health Department is notified of all overflows and if the overflow exceeds 1,000 gallons and or reaches the storm drain system, the Regional Water Quality Control Board and the State Office of Emergency Services are notified.
LADPW Flood Maintenance District (FMD) is notified of all overflows that discharge into the storm drain system. The role of FMD is to assist in tracing and capturing the spill as much as possible before it reaches the waters of the United States. The agencies to be notified, method and time frame for notification are presented in Table 1. The phone/fax numbers of the agencies are presented on section Table 2. The relevant data about the overflow such as location, volume, agencies notified, etc. is recorded in field report forms and later stored in the computer. All field personnel are trained to be conversant with these procedures and to accurately report SSO incidents.

Procedure to Ensure Staff and Contractors are Aware and Properly Trained to Follow the Emergency Response Plan
The CSMD Emergency Response Plan is available to key personnel who are responsible for managing or responding to SSOs. Copies of the Districts' instruction manuals are available to field crews and engineers at the LADPW office who manage or have the role of preparing SSO reports to regulatory agencies. All contractors doing emergency sewer repair or other sewer related construction work for the CSMD are required to comply with the Employee and Public Safety, SSO Notification and Reporting Provisions of their agreement with LADPW. They are also required to have employees that are adequately trained and well equipped. The contractors' construction activities are regularly monitored by LADPW engineers and inspectors to assure compliance with these requirements.
Procedures to Address Emergency Operations such as Traffic, Crowd Control, and other Necessary Response Activities
The CSMD field personnel and the staff of the emergency contractors retained by LADPW for SSO responses are well trained in traffic and crowd control. The Districts' vehicles are well equipped with traffic and crowd control tools, including orange traffic control cones, yellow tape, flashing lights, high visibility yellow uniforms, etc.
Program to Eliminate or Minimize the Discharge of SSOs into Waters of the United States The CSMD and emergency contractors' crews retained by LADPW are properly trained on methods and procedures to prevent or limit the amount of SSO into waters of the United States and how to mitigate their impacts. Some of the methods include the use of sand bags to contain SSOs, absorbent socks to prevent SSO discharge into storm drain catch basins, and the use of vacuum trucks to suck up contained spills and dump effluent back into the collection system at other safe locations. The CSMD have the reduction of response time for SSO as one of the major goals. Reducing response time would significantly limit the amount of SSO that reaches the waters of the United States.

If an Enrollee determines that a FOG program is not needed, the Enrollee must provide justification for why it is not needed. If FOG is found to be a problem, the enrollee must prepare and implement a FOG source control program to reduce the amount of these substances discharged to the sanitary sewer system. The plan shall include the following as appropriate:
An implementation plan and schedule for a public education outreach program that promotes proper disposal of FOG;
A plan and schedule for the disposal of FOG generated within the sanitary sewer system service area. This may include a list of acceptable disposal facilities and/or additional facilities needed to adequately dispose of FOG generated within a sanitary sewer system service area;
The legal authority to prohibit discharges to the system and identify measures to prevent SSOs and blockage caused by FOG;
Requirements to install grease removal devices suc h as traps or interceptors), design standards for the removal devices, maintenance requirements, BMP requirements, record keeping and reporting requirements; Authority to inspect grease producing facilities, enforcement authorities, and whether the Enrollee has sufficient staff to inspec t and enforce the FOG ordinance; An identification of sanitary sewer system sections subject to FOG blockages and establishment of a cleaning maintenance schedule for each section; and Development and implementation of source control measures for all sources of FOG discharged to the sanitary sewer system for each section identified in (f) above. 22
City of Bell Gardens
Sanitary Sewer Management Plan Section VII
FOG Control
The City recognizes the importance of a FOG control program. As previously mentioned in the Legal Authority section of this document, the City entered into an agreement with the County of Los Angeles to permit, track, inspect, and ensure compliance with the City's Sanitary Sewer and Industrial Waste Ordinance at industrial and commercial facilities within the City.
This includes the annual inspection of grease producing facilities and their grease removal devices.
LADPW currently performs most of the FOG related responsibilities for the cities within the CSMD. As such, solidified fats found in the collection system during LADPW cleaning operations are trapped, collected and taken to their maintenance yard bins for disposal. FOG in liquid form is flushed by hydro jetting to the downstream treatment facilities for treatment and disposal. FOG prone sections of the sewer system, otherwise called "hot spots", are identified by LADPW throughout the CSMD during routine maintenance operations and investigation of stoppages and SSOs. Those portions of the sewer system found to have persistent FOG problems are put on monthly, quarterly or semiannual periodic cleaning schedule, depending on the magnitude of the problem.
Continued corroboration with LADPW will serve to meet many of the FOG program requirements described in the WDRs through regular inspections of industrial and commercial facilities.
Legal Authority
Since the City has adopted the LACO Sanitary Sewer and Industrial Waste Ordinance, there are legal measures that are available to the City to control sources of FOG. Additionally, the City has an agreement with the County for the inspection of grease producing facilities and the grease interceptors that are installed at these facilities.
LADPW currently inspects grease -producing facilities in the City and their grease removal device cleaning logs annually.
Public Outreach
LADPW has developed outreach programs about FOG and other SSO prevention measures mainly through brochures, and newsletters.

Sanitary SPwr Managpmpnt Plan Section VIII
Section VIII —System Evaluation and Capacity Assurance Plan (SECAP) Waste Discharge Requirements
An important step in attempting to minimize the amount of SSOs in a given system, one must determine how the system will react to different conditions and stresses. Once this is achieved, City officials can identify areas in need of improvement and prioritize projects for a capital improvement program. This element of the SSMP discusses the City's capacity management measures. The box below contains specific language regarding the System Evaluation and Capacity Assurance Plan requirement of the WDR.
D. 13 (viii) System Evaluation and Capacity Assurance Plan: The Enrollee shall prepare and implement a capital improvement plan (CIP) that will provide hydraulic capacity of key sanitary sewer system elements for dry weather peak flow conditions, as well as the appropriate design storm or wet weather event. At a minimum, the plan must include:
(a) Evaluation: Actions needed to evaluate those portions of the sanitary sewer system that are experiencing or contributing to an SSO discharge caused by hydraulic deficiency. The evaluation must provide estimates of peak flows (including flows from SSOs that escape from the system) associated with conditions similar to those causing overflow events, estimates of the capacity of key system components, hydraulic deficiencies (including components of the system with limiting capacity and the major sources that contribute to the peak flows associated with overflow events;
(b) Design Criteria: Where design criteria do not exist or are deficient, undertake the evaluation identified in (a) above to establish appropriate design criteria; and
(c) Capacity Enhancement Measures: The steps needed to establish a short- and long-term CIP to address identified hydraulic deficiencies, including prioritization, alternatives analysis, and schedules. The CIP may include increases in pipe size, I/I reduction programs, increases and redundancy in pumping capacity, and storage facilities. The CIP shall include an implementation schedule and shall identify sources of funding.
(d)Schedule: The Enrollee shall develop a schedule of completion dates for all portions of the capital improvement program developed in (a) -(c) above. This schedule shall be reviewed and updated consistently with the SSMP review and update requirements as described in Section D. 14 26
City of Bell Gardens
Sanitary Sewer Management Plan Section VIII
System Capacity Evaluation
The City last completed a Sanitary Sewer Master Plan in 2007 which included a capacity evaluation and identified capacity -related improvement projects. The Master plan consisted of data collection and mapping, modeling of the system and the development of a Capital Improvements Program (CIP).
The Sewer Master Plan was limited to the 237,282 linear feet of gravity sewer mains, ranging in size from 8 to 21 inches in diameter, within the City boundary that eventually drain to the City of South Gate's sewer facilities in the southern portion of the City. The following subsections describe the results of the 2007 Sanitary Sewer Master Plan and projects identified in the recommended Capital Improvement Plan (CIP).
GIS Database
All sanitary sewer lines and manholes within the City and some of the neighboring systems' sanitary sewer system, including a portion of the unincorporated areas surrounding the City, were digitized from the City's existing as -built drawings and gaps were filled in using Los Angeles County Sanitation District's (LACSD) maps. To develop the hydraulic model, several attributes including the pipe diameter, length, material as well as manhole invert elevations and ground elevation data were needed. In addition to database design also includes the design for Arcview themes for the GIS system.
Hydraulic Model
One of the objectives of the 2007 Sanitary Sewer Master Plan was to construct a hydraulic model of the sewer system to determine whether or not the capacity of the system is adequate to handle the dry and wet weather flows. A database was created with information about each pipe segment linked to the mapped pipe segments which included design criteria, flow information, diurnal curves, land use and all of the physical characteristics about the sewer system. The hydraulic analysis was conducted by using the MIKE SWMM modeling software to determine how the system reacts to the flow information and design criteria entered into the program. The primary focus of the analysis was to identify sewer pipe capacity limitations during normal dry and wet weather.
Analysis of Flow Data
The analysis of wastewater flow data consisted of the determination of base flow conditions, peak infiltration conditions, and inflow conditions. Analysis of wastewater flows for the sanitary sewer master plan was based on field data and estimated flows. The City's zoning map was used for comparison purposes to estimate the quantity of wastewater flow returned from domestic/commercial water consumption.
27
City of Bell Gardens
Sanitary Sewer Management Plan Section VIII
Base Flow Conditions
Generally base flow is determined by a review of water records from months when most of the water consumption is returned to the wastewater system. For the City, the water return is generally consistent year round. Since water billing records were unable to be obtained for each service address in the City, Los Angeles County Sanitation District's (LACSD) standard methodology for estimating wastewater return rates, based on zoning types, was used. Zoning designations for each parcel were used to estimate the wastewater base flow. The analysis determined that the average wastewater base flow in the City is 1.371 million of gallons per day (mgd).
Sewer System Capacity Evaluation Criteria
To minimize the potential for sanitary sewer overflows (SSOs), the system is sized to convey the peak wet weather flow (PWWF). The PWWF is defined to be equal to the peak dry weather flow (PDWF); plus a contingency for groundwater/seawater infiltration and rainfall dependent inflow, or Infiltration and Inflow (I&I). Hydraulic equations, friction factors and percent capacity were used to define the design capacity of the sewer pipes. For all pipes, design capacity was based on the pipe flowing at a depth equal to 75 percent of its diameter, at the peak dry weather flow. Reserve capacity was provided for variations in estimated flows and peaking, total infiltration and inflow allowance and for redevelopment. Additionally, pipes with flows that show a flow depth greater that 75 percent of their diameters (d/D ratio of > 0.75) were considered hydraulically deficient.
Sewer System Capacity Evaluation Results
The sewer system modeling was performed for several different scenarios. These scenarios included: Peak Dry Weather Flow (PDWF), Peak Wet Weather Flow (PWWF), Future PDWF, and Future PWWF.
(a) Peak Dry Weather Flow (PDWF) —This condition represents the peak flow which includes the base flow and infiltration flows. Under Peak Dry Weather Flow (PDWF) conditions, there were 67 line segments that were found to be hydraulically deficient (their d/D ratio was > 0.75) under this scenario. (b) Peak Wet Weather Flow (PWWF) — An analysis of the sewer system was conducted for peak wet weather conditions. The analysis assumed the storm would occur during the peak diurnal period of dry weather flow conditions with peak infiltration. There were 159 line segments that were found to be hydraulically deficient under this scenario.
(c) Future PDWF — An analysis of the system was performed under PDWF conditions for the year 2027. This condition represents the peak flow which includes the base flow and infiltration flows. There were 79 line segments that were found to be hydraulically deficient under this scenario. 28
City of Bell Gardens
Sanitary Sewer Management Plan Section VIII
(d) Future PDWF — An analysis of the system was performed under PWWF conditions for the year 2027. The analysis assumed the storm would occur during the peak diurnal period of dry weather flow conditions with peak infiltration. There were 201 line segments that were found to be hydraulically deficient under this scenario.
Recommended Capacity Projects
Based on the above Sewer System Capacity Evaluations, remedies were recommended but documentation to support any projects cannot be located. The City is not aware of any Capital Improvements since the 2007 Master Plan. However, the CSMD has implemented sewer system improvements through the Los Angeles County Accumulated Capital Outlay (ACO) Program. These projects, funded by property owners via annual sewer service assessments, contribute to the rehabilitation and replacement of critical infrastructure and reflect the County's commitment to sustaining capacity and reliability within Bell Gardens' sewer system.

Section IX — Monitoring, Measurement & Program Modifications Waste Discharge Requirements
It is critical that the City monitors implementation of the SSMP elements and measures the effectiveness of SSMP elements in reducing SSOs. Effectiveness should be measured by developing and tracking performance indicators on a regular basis.
Performance indicators should be selected to meet the goals of the wastewater collection system agency. This section of the SSMP discusses parameters the City tracks to monitor the success of the SSMP and how the City plans to keep the SSMP current. The box below contains specific language regarding the Monitoring, Measurement and Program Modifications requirement of the WDR.
D. 13 (ix) Monitoring, Measurement, and Program
Modifications: The Enrollee shall:
a. Maintain relevant information that can be used to
establish and prioritize appropriate SSMP activities;
b. Monitor the implementation and, where appropriate,
measure the effectiveness of each element of the SSMP;
c. Assess the success of the preventative maintenance
program;
d. Update program elements, as appropriate, based on
monitoring or performance evaluations; and
e. Identify and illustrate SSO trends, including: frequency, location, and volume
Monitoring and Measurement
To effectively manage programs, performance measures that gauge success should be developed and data to support the findings must be collected. To this end, accurate and consistent data keeping is extremely important for successful sewer system management. It is imperative that the correct data is captured, in a format that is easily extractable, and that operations personnel understand their role in this process.
Focus should be placed on performance metrics, components of trend tracking, and bench - marking procedures both internally and externally. Based upon data collected decisions can be made as to changes that may be warranted and needed in order to maximize program efficiency.
The City has access to reporting online through LADPW. As mentioned, CSMD provides preventative maintenance and remediation including CCTV, hydro jetting, Manhole inspection and repair and SSO clean up. The City utilizes these reports to assess the effectiveness of the SSMP and to determine if modifications are necessary to improve the performance of the sewer system within the City.

The graphs are used to identify SSO trends and evaluate over program effectiveness. information from these graphs are used as indicators of possible I/I issues and evaluated annually as part of the performance parameters of the SSMP.
The WDR requires that the SSMP will need to be updated periodically to maintain current information and programs need to be enhanced or modified if they are determined to be less effective than needed. City staff will update critical information, such as contact numbers and the SSO response chain of communication as needed.

Section X — SSMP Audits
Waste Discharge Requirements
Audit programs are intended to provide controls for ensuring that all programs associated with the SSMP are implemented as planned and managed appropriately. Audit outcomes should provide information about challenges and successes in implementing the SSMP by evaluating work practices and operations, documentation, procedures records and staff for implementation effectiveness and consistency. The audit will identify any program or policy changes that may be needed to continually improve effective implementation. Information collected as part of an audit should be used to plan program or procedure revisions necessary to improve program performance. The box below contains specific language regarding the SSMP Program Audits requirement of the WDR.
D.13 (x) SSMP Program Audits - As part of the SSMP, the Enrollee shall conduct periodic internal audits, appropriate to the size of the system and the number of SSOs. At a minimum, these audits must occur every three years and a report must be prepared and kept on file. This audit shall focus on evaluating the effectiveness of the SSMP and the Enrollee's compliance with the SSMP requirements identified in this subsection (D.13), including identification of any deficiencies in the SSMP and steps to correct them

Section XI - Communication Program
Waste Discharge Requirements
The City of Bell Gardens shall communicate on a regular basis with the public on the development, implementation, and performance of its SSMP. The communication system shall provide the public the opportunity to provide input to the City as the program is developed and implemented. The City shall also create a plan of communication with systems that are tributary and/or satellite to the City's sanitary sewer system. The box below contains specific language regarding the Communication Program requirement of the WDR. (xi) Communication Program - The Enrollee shall communicate on a regular basis with the public on the development, implementation, and performance of its SSMP. The communication system shall provide the public the opportunity to provide input to the Enrollee as the program is developed and implemented. The Enrollee shall also create a plan of communication with systems that are tributary and/or satellite to the Enrollee's sanitary sewer system.
Identifying key stakeholders is the first steps to developing a communication plan.
Understanding what elements of an SSMP they will be most concerned with is one of the many potential considerations that an agency may identify. Involving the right stakeholders on potentially controversial issues as early as possible is important to the success of any new program. Emphasizing collaboration and shared goals to reach a workable solution will promote ownership and understanding. Developing transparency to homeowners and businessowners in the City of Bell Gardens is of upmost importance.
Communication
The City should develop a communication mechanism with the County Department of Public Works which will establish ongoing discourse on a continual and regular basis. Additionally, the City should identify an individual within the City who is responsible for development, implementation, and interface for the communication program. Identify resources necessary to solicit and incorporate input on each phase of the SSMP (development, implementation, and performance), as well as document the City's outreach efforts. The City should emphasize collaboration and shared goals to reach a workable solution. Create a list of key milestones in each phase of your SSMP when stakeholder input would be most useful and effective. The City should create a convenient mechanism for stakeholder input. 35
City of Bell Gardens
Sanitary Sewer Management Plan Section XI
Key considerations, while developing a communication program include:
• Development of a variety of communication methods, including newsletters, public meetings, web pages, and public service announcements. Different agencies will find that different communication methods are effective. Look for a method that reaches the desired audience at a reasonable cost.
• The City should develop a section on the City's website with other agencies or professional organizations and share costs. The website could contain general information about the new Waste Discharge Requirements and SSMP components provide space to make documents available for public review, and contain contact, meeting times and locations, and other agency -specific information.
• Los Angeles County, on behalf of the City, will provide communication with other satellite agencies, conduct regular coordination meetings, annual surveys for changes in their system, and/or web pages devoted to satellite agency issues.
• The City must make sure there is a designated staff person responsible for satellite agency coordination. This person will ensure that the program is sustained, and your agency's efforts to get the program up and running and are sustained once the SSMP is complete.
SSMP Availability
Copies of the SSMP should be maintained and available for stakeholders and interested parties upon request via e-mail. City can choose to make the SSMP available to anyone via download on the City's website under Public Works:

Sewer System Maintenance, Overflow,
And Spill Prevention Plan
2020-2025 CIWQS SSO Spill Report
SEWER SYSTEM MAINTENANCE, OVERFLOW, AND SPILL PREVENTION PLAN Summary of Requirements
The City is responsible for implementing a sewer system maintenance, overflow, and spill prevention plan. Facilities that are covered under this plan include: sanitary sewer pipes and pump stations owned and operated by the Permitee. The purpose of the plan is to provide affected City personnel with written procedures to accomplish the following:
Keep any sewage system overflows or leaks from entering the MS4 (any street, gutter, catch basin, open channel ditch, or any device, natural or man-made, that transports runoff to the receiving body).
Identify, fix and remediate sewage system blockages, exfiltration, and overflows.
Implement procedures for investigating suspected cross -connections.
Notify public health authorities when there is a threat to public health.
Spill Response
Upon notification of a sewage release (spill, leakage, or overflow) to the MS4, the following steps shall be performed:
Dispatch appropriate personnel to perform material cleanup.
Contain the spill and minimize the release to the storm drain system or receiving waters.
Record required information at the spill site.
Perform field evaluation to determine the source of the spill Spill Containment, Removal, and Disinfection
Sewage releases include any kind of sewage discharge to the MS4 including leaks and overflows from sewer pipes and pump stations. In the event of a sewage discharge to MS4, the following steps must be taken:
Prevent traveling sewage from entering the MS4 by covering or blocking storm drain inlets and catch basins, or by containing and diverting the sewage away from open channels and other storm drain facilities (using sandbags, inflatable dams, etc.).
Remove the sewage using vacuum equipment or use other measures to return it to the sanitary sewer system
In the event disinfection is necessary, make every effort to prevent the disinfectant or sewage with. disinfectant from entering the MS4. In the event such discharge threatens to enter a catch basin, the catch basin inlet should be blocked (e.g., using sand bags or impeiuieable covering over the inlet). In the event the discharge threatens to enter an open channel or a storm drain, contain or divert the stream away from it usin.._a.nropriate material (e.g., sand bags, etc.). l Record the estimates volume of the release that entered the street, catch basin, or channel.
Determine the source of the release and take steps necessary to stop it.
Sewage Release Prevention
To minimize the frequency of sewage releases to the MS4, the following steps should be taken:
Note the condition of the sanitary sewer during scheduled and non-scheduled inspections, maintenance, and repair works, including: (1) cracked/deteriorating pipes; (2) leaking joints/seals at manhole; (3) plugged line. 4) line flowing at or near capacity; and (5) suspected exfiltration.
I Identify areas that need maintenance or repair.
Document recommendations for repair and notify superior personnel.
Prioritize repairs based on the nature and severity of the problem.
Cross Connection Discovery
A cross connection is connection between the MS4 and sewage system, which is also considered an illicit connection. The following steps shall be taken to verify that suspected connections or cross -connections are investigated:
Educate field personnel to recognize suspected and actual cross -connections to the sanitary sewer system.
Maintain accurate records of both sewer connections and new sewer lines.
Report suspected or actual cross -connections to appropriate personnel.
Initiate investigation into source of cross -connection in accordance with IC/ID Elimination Program.
Release Notification
In the event of a sewage release to the MS4 which has the potential to threaten a beneficial use of a water body, the following steps shall be taken immediately:
Notify the County Department of Health Services, or other local health agency, of the spill location and potential discharge point to the receiving water. (note: the County my be reached by calling the Hotline number (800) 303-0003 or (888) CLEANLA.)
Notify other impacted agencies — including the Regional. Board as needed to help determine the extent of the threat and document the release.

There may be multiple individual spill event IDs that share the same location.
The search results on this summary page present summary data from individual spill reports submitted in the online CIWQS Sanitary Sewer System Database, meeting the search criteria selected. To determine if spill reports relate to a common failure point within the sanitary sewer system, the spill reports should be reviewed in detail by selecting a number under the "Total Number of Spills" column, corresponding to a specific sanitary sewer system.
The "Responsible Agency", or Enrollee, listed on a spill report is responsible for the spill described and should be contacted directly for questions related to that incident.
The current report was generated with data entered by Enrollees on the previous day.

SSMP Audit
Introduction
On May 2, 2006, the California State Water Resources Control Board adopted Order No. 2006- 0003 (State Order) to create an equitable statewide mechanism to manage all publicly owned wastewater collection agencies with more than a mile of pipeline, to reduce the number and severity of Sanitary Sewer Overflows (SSOs), and to set up a central depository for online reporting of SSOs when they do occur. On July 30, 2013, Attachment A to the Order was promulgated and became effective on September 9, 2013 and is known as Attachment A, SWRCB Order No. WOO 2013 -0058 -EXEC, amending the Monitoring and Reporting Program for Statewide General Waste Discharge Requirements for Sanitary Sewer Systems (together these documents constitute the "SSS WDR"). This report was prepared pursuant to the requirements included in the State Water Resources Control Board Order No. 2022-0103-DWQ — Statewide General Waste Discharge Requirements for Sanitary Sewer Systems (General Order).
A principal element of the State Order is the requirement that the collection agencies adopt and maintain a management plan for the system, referred to as a Sewer System Management Plan or SSMP.
The City of Bell Gardens adopted the SSMP on August 10, 2009, through Resolution No. 2009-29, and recertified the SSMP in April 2014 and June 2019, in accordance with the State Order.
The State Order establishes the following goals:
• The SSMP must document the organization's legal authority to achieve the goals of the SSMP as demonstrated through City of Bell Gardens' ordinances, agreements and other legally binding instruments.
• The SSMP must identify the City of Bell Gardens organization and staff responsible for implementing and maintaining the SSMP.
• The SSMP is to provide a plan and schedule to properly manage, operate, and maintain all parts of the City of Bell Gardens wastewater conveyance system.
Additionally, the State Order requires City of Bell Gardens staff perform periodic internal audits of the SSMP focusing on evaluating the effectiveness of the SSMP and staffs' compliance with its requirements, as shown in Section D-13 of the State Order. The internal audits must be performed at least every three (3) years with the audit report kept on file at City of Bell Gardens.
The SSMP must be updated every six (6) years, must contain any significant program changes, and be re -certified by the City of Bell Gardens. To complete the re -certification process, City of Bell Gardens staff must enter the information on the Online SSO Database and mail a hard copy to the State Water Resources Control Board.
The City of Bell Gardens is a part of the Consolidated Sewer Maintenance District 4 City of Bell Gardens
SSMP Audit
(CSMD), and currently contracts with Los Angeles County Department of Public Works (LADPW) for their sanitary sewer cleaning and industrial waste enforcement. Additionally, as a part of the CSMD, the City is included in the County's Accumulative Capital Outlay Program (ACO). The ACO identified, rehabilitates and reconstructs sewer pipes within the CSMD that have structural deficiencies. However, it is still the responsibility of the City to implement recommendations identified herein that are not covered by CSMD.
As described below, there are 11 major categories in the SSMP and over thirty-six subcategories. Additionally, a comprehensive audit program includes evaluation elements such as document control, training, objectives, data management, audit procedures, and results approach outcomes.
This is the internal audit of the SSMP. No action is required by the City of Bell Gardens.
After reviewing and sharing the contents of the audit report, staff will create a list of proposed remedies if deficiencies were found to exist, file the report, and begin working to correct the deficiencies, if any.

Review the SSMP to determine if it complies with the State Order by having ordinances and agreements in place and updated to prevent illicit discharges, provide for proper design of upstream facilities, provide right of way and access to the system, and enforce City regulations.
Sufficiency: In Compliance
Findings: The City of Bell Gardens currently has in place several municipal codes which prevent, require, ensure, limit and enforce specific features and operations required by the Order. The City of Bell Gardens SSMP currently lists the applicable City codes that provide the proper legal authority.
The following are requirements are referenced in the SSMP:
1) The necessary legal authority will prevent illicit discharges into its sanitary sewer system:
The City's abides by LACO Plumbing Code Title 28 which has language prohibiting 8 City of Bell Gardens
SSMP Audit
illicit discharges. The specific purpose is to prevent the discharge of any pollutant into the sanitary sewer system that would obstruct or damage the collection system, interfere with treatment, or threaten harm to human health or the environment.
Examples of discharges covered are:
• Storm Water and I/I - LACO Plumbing Code Sections 306.2, 714.2, and 1101.2 prohibit the unauthorized discharge or rain, surface, or subsurface water into the collection system
• Industrial Waste — LACO Code Section 20.20.160 defines industrial waste as "any and all waste substances, liquid or solid, except domestic sewage, and includes radioactive wastes and explosives. • Other Discharges — LACO Section 20.36.010 prohibits the illegal dumping of offensive or damaging substances such as chemical debris, etc., whare are considered inflows.
2) Require that sewers and connections be properly designed and constructed:
The City has the responsibility for the review and approval of plans and specifications for the construction and dedication of sanitary sewers, house laterals and sewer - related appurtenances through the development processes of the Department of Public Works, Development Engineering Division based on the 2019 SSMP. LA County Code Title 20 is utilized for design and construction of new house laterals and construction of collection system. Since the 2019 SSMP, the ownus for overseeing and approving design and construction of connections and sewers is now Community Development.
3) Ensure access for maintenance, inspection, or repairs for portions of the lateral owned or maintained by the Public Agency:
The LACO Code sections 20.32.330 and 20.32.340 require that the design of new sewer lines be in conformity with requirements of Part 3 of Chapter 20.32 of the Code. Chapter 20.32 also covers lateral conformity for new homes, collection system improvements and construction of mainline sewers.

and follow the Emergency Response Plan and are appropriately trained to follow the Emergency Response Plan
The CSMD Emergency Response Plan is available to key personnel who are responsible for managing or responding to SSOs. All contractors doing emergency sewer repair or other sewer related construction work for the CSMD are required to comply with the Employee and Public Safety, SSO Notification and Reporting Provisions of their agreement with LADPW. They are required to have employees adequately trained and well equipped.
e) Procedures to address emergency operations, such as traffic and crowd control and other necessary response activities
The CSMD field personnel and the staff of the emergency contractors retained by LADPW for SSO responses are well trained in traffic and crowd control. The Districts' vehicles are well equipped with traffic and crowd control tools, including orange traffic control cones, yellow tape, flashing lights, high visibility yellow uniforms, etc.
f) A program to ensure that all reasonable steps are taken to contain the discharge of untreated and partially treated wastewater to the waters of the United States and to minimize or correct any adverse impact on the environment resulting from the SSOs
The CSMD and emergency contractors' crews retained by LADPW are properly trained on methods and procedures to prevent or limit the amount of SSO into waters of the United States and how to mitigate their impacts. Some of the methods include the use of sand bags to contain SSOs, absorbent socks to prevent SSO discharge into storm drain catch basins, and the use of vacuum trucks to suck up contained spills and dump effluent back into the collection system at other safe locations.
