G. PUBLIC HEARINGS
Persons addressing the City Council using Zoom are asked to raise their hands using the Zoom feature. Those attending in person and wishing to address the Council may do so from the podium. The Council may adopt reasonable regulations at the onset of the public hearing to facilitate public testimony. These regulations may include time limits. In the absence of such regulations, the public hearing shall follow the protocol for Public Comments.
G.1 Waive the first reading and introduce an ordinance approving a Zoning Text Amendment (RZ 24-006) to the Brentwood Municipal Code to update regulations related to selfstorage and drive-through facilities Title/Recommendation
Waive the first reading and introduce an ordinance approving amendments to the Brentwood Municipal Code to add development standards for self-storage facilities in Chapter 17.755 (Self-Storage Facilities); add development standards for drive-through facilities in Chapter 17.655 (Drive-Through Uses); add new land use classifications for each in Section 17.030.030 (Definitions); and update references in all zones throughout the city related to the uses.
The proposed text amendments are exempt from the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA), pursuant to Section 15061(b)(3) of the CEQA Guidelines, as it can be seen with certainty that the proposed ordinance would not authorize or facilitate new construction or other groundbreaking activities. There is no potential to result in either a direct physical
change to the environment or a reasonably foreseeable indirect physical change to the environment. Any future project subject to updated zoning provisions would undergo appropriate CEQA review prior to approval.
G.2 Annexation #17 to Community Facilities District No. 5 Title/Recommendation
Staff recommends that the City Council:
Hold the public hearing regarding the annexation of territory to the City of Brentwood (“City”) Community Facilities District No. 5 (“CFD No. 5”);
1. Adopt a Resolution determining to annex territory to CFD No. 5 and calling a special election for CFD No. 5;
2. 3. Conduct the special election for the annexation of territory to CFD No. 5; and Adopt a Resolution determining the results of the special election for the annexation of territory to CFD No. 5.
4. This action has been reviewed under the criteria contained in the California Environmental Quality Act (“CEQA,” as codified at Public Resources Code §§ 21000, et seq., and as further governed by the State CEQA Guidelines, found at 14 CCR §§ 15000, et seq.) and the City's environmental regulations. The action is not subject to CEQA pursuant to CEQA Guidelines Sections 15060(c)(2), 15060(c)(3), and 15061(b)(3), as it will not result in a direct or reasonably foreseeable indirect physical change to the environment because there is no possibility that the action would result in a significant environmental impact, and because it does not constitute a “project” as defined in CEQA Guidelines Section 15378.
G.3 Parks and Recreation Cost Allocation Plan and Schedule of City Fees Title/Recommendation
Staff is recommending that the City Council adopt a Resolution amending the City of Brentwood Cost Allocation Plan and Schedule of City Fees related to the timing of Consumer Price Index adjustments and revisions to Parks and Recreation fees; and finding that the proposed amendments do not constitute a project for the purposes of the California Environmental Quality Act.
G.4 Adoption of Capital Improvement Program (CIP) for 2025/26 – 2029/30 Title/Recommendation
Staff recommends approving a resolution adopting the 2025/26 – 2029/30 Capital Improvement Program (CIP).

CITY COUNCIL AGENDA ITEM NO. F.5
07/22/2025
SUBJECT: Acceptance of Improvements at the Vineyards at Marsh Creek Project – Parcel ‘W’
DEPARTMENT: Parks and Recreation
STAFF: E. Harith Aleem, Jr., Director of Parks and Recreation Janice Ellis, Park Planner
TITLE/RECOMMENDATION
Adopt a Resolution accepting the public improvements that were conditioned to be constructed by the developer with the approval of the Vineyards at Marsh Creek project.
Staff’s recommendation is to adopt a Resolution accepting 7.72 acres of agricultural landscaping improvements in the Vineyards at Marsh Creek development (Subdivisions 8796) for maintenance by the City and request the City Clerk to file this Resolution with the Recorder of Contra Costa County.
FISCAL IMPACT
There will be no fiscal impact to the City as a result of the acceptance of these improvements. As outlined in the agreement attached to this staff report, the Vineyards at Marsh Creek Homeowners’ Association will be responsible for the maintenance of the agricultural landscaping improvements constructed on these Cityowned parcels upon the City’s acceptance of the improvements.
Per the provisions of the agreement, in the event that the City exercises it right to revoke the agreement with Vineyards at Marsh Creek Homeowners’ Association for failure to maintain these parcels to the standards set forth in the agreement, the Vineyards Landscape and Lighting Assessment District 06-3 would provide funding for the City to take over maintenance of these agricultural landscaping improvements.
BACKGROUND
Trilogy Vineyards, LLC (Shea), the developer of the Vineyards at Marsh Creek project, (Subdivision 8796) has submitted a request for the City to consider acceptance of
CITY COUNCIL AGENDA ITEM NO. F.5
07/22/2025
the agricultural landscaping improvements (olive orchards) constructed on Parcel ‘W’, totaling the approximately 7.72 acres.
The required offer of dedication of this parcel was made with the recordation of the Final Map for the subdivision listed above. The dedication was made for the purposes of open space landscaping and agricultural use and the City accepted the dedication of real property for these purposes. In 2006, the developer also established a funding source for the ongoing maintenance of the agricultural landscaping improvements on this parcel with the formation of Landscape and Lighting Assessment District (LLAD) 06-3.
Trilogy Vineyards, LLC, recently completed the agricultural landscaping improvements on the subject parcel. These improvement include the planting of olive orchards and the installation of the necessary irrigation infrastructure and systems. City staff conducted the required inspections during and following construction, and the mandatory 90-day maintenance period has been satisfied. Staff determined that the improvements, including the plant material, irrigation and utility infrastructure installed on the subject parcel, is in substantial conformance with the approved plans and Parks and Recreation Department specifications.
In 2016, under a provision contained in the Development Agreement for the Vineyards at Marsh Creek project, the developer requested that the City relinquish maintenance responsibilities of the agricultural landscaping improvements on the City-owned agricultural parcels to the Vineyards at Marsh Creek Homeowners’ Association. Subsequently, a Revocable License Agreement and Right to Enter, Construct and Maintain Agricultural Parcels was executed between the City of Brentwood, Trilogy Vineyards, LLC, and the Vineyards at Marsh Creek Homeowners’ Association. Under this agreement, the City Council’s action to accept the agricultural landscaping improvements triggers the beginning of the homeowners associations’ responsibility for maintenance. The Vineyards at Marsh Creek Homeowners’ Association is aware of the upcoming acceptance of the improvements and has funding and maintenance contracts in place to begin maintenance activities starting Wednesday, July 23, 2025.
This action will formally accept for ongoing maintenance by the City the agricultural landscaping improvements on the parcel specified above.

CITY COUNCIL AGENDA ITEM NO. F.6
07/22/2025
SUBJECT: Approve the six-year Sewer System Management Plan 2025 Revision for recertification as required by the State Water Resources Control Board
DEPARTMENT: Public Works
STAFF: Casey Wichert, Director of Public Works
Mark Huber, Wastewater Operations Manager
TITLE/RECOMMENDATION
Adopt a Resolution approving the six-year Sewer System Management Plan 2025 Revision for recertification as required by the State Water Resources Control Board.
FISCAL IMPACT
Funding for the Sewer System Management Plan (SSMP) elements is included in the Wastewater Enterprise Fund Operating Budget; therefore, approval of the SSMP will not have a fiscal impact.
BACKGROUND
On May 2, 2006, the State Water Resources Control Board (SWRCB) implemented Order No. 2006-0003-DWQ, General Waste Discharge Requirements (GWDR). This order required any municipality in the State of California that owns or operates a sanitary sewer system greater than one mile in length and collects and/or conveys untreated or partially treated wastewater to a publicly-owned treatment plant to comply with the terms of the order. The order required the development and implementation of a system-specific SSMP. This SSMP outlines the overall management of the City’s sewer system.
On December 6, 2022, the SWRCB implemented an updated GWDR, Order No. 2022- 0103-DWQ, which changed some of the SSMP requirements, including changing the required auditing and re-certification requirements. This new GWDR requires the City to conduct internal audits of the SSMP every three years, with a focus on evaluating the effectiveness of the SSMP and the City’s compliance with the SSMP requirements. The GWDR also requires the SSMP to be updated every six years and recertified by the governing board. However, if the three-year audit results in
CITY COUNCIL AGENDA ITEM NO. F.6
07/22/2025
necessary changes that are recertified by the City Council, then a six year recertification is not required.
City staff conducted audits of the SSMP in 2021, 2023, and most recently in 2025.
Other than minor edits, staff found that the SSMP was in compliance with the SWRCB orders, therefore, this six year recertification is required.
CITY COUNCIL STRATEGIC INITIATIVE
Not Applicable.
PREVIOUS ACTION
Previous Action by the City Council is included on Attachment 1.
DATE OF NOTICE
Not Applicable.
ENVIRONMENTAL DETERMINATION
Not Applicable.
ALTERNATIVE OPTION(S)
As noted above, the SWRCB’s General Waste Discharge Requirements mandate that the SSMP be updated every six years and recertified by the governing board. If the Council needs additional information, it could request staff bring that back at a future meeting.

1 INTRODUCTION
This introductory section provides background information on the purpose and organization of this Sewer System Management Plan and provides a brief overview of the City of Brentwood’s service area and sewer system.
SSMP Requirement Background
In December 2022, the State Water Resources Control Board (“SWRCB”) implemented Order No. 2022-0103-DWQ requiring any municipality which owns or operates a sanitary sewer system greater than 1.0 mile in length and collects and/or conveys untreated or partially treated wastewater to publicly owned treatment plants in the State of California to comply with the terms of this order.
This SSMP will facilitate the overall management of the City of Brentwood’s Sewer System.
Document Organization
This SSMP is intended to meet the requirements of the Statewide General Waste Discharge Requirements (“GWDR”). The organization of this document is consistent with the SWRCB requirements. This SSMP includes eleven elements, as listed below:
1. Goals
2. Organization
3. Legal Authority
4. Measures and Activities (Operation and Maintenance Program)
5. Design and Construction Standards (Design and Performance Provisions)
6. Overflow Emergency Response Plan
7. Fats, Oils and Grease Control Program
8. Capacity Management (System Evaluation and Capacity Assurance Plan)
9. Monitoring, Measurement, and Program Modification
10. SSMP Audits
11. Communication Plan
Each element section is organized into sub-sections, as follows:
1. Description of the SWRCB requirement for that element.
2. Identification of associated appendix and list of supporting information included in the appendix.
3. Discussion of element. The discussion may be split into multiple sub-sections depending on length and complexity.
Supporting information for each element is included in an appendix associated with that section, as applicable. In general, information expected to require relatively frequent updates (such as names and phone numbers of staff) are included in appendices, as well as other supporting information, such as forms or schedules.
City Service Area and Sewer System
The City of Brentwood is located in Eastern Contra Costa County and is surrounded by the cities and/or communities of Antioch, Oakley, Knightsen, Discovery Bay, and Byron. As of January 1,
City of Brentwood
2025 SSMP
2 2025, the City had an estimated population of 65,350. The population growth of the City is projected to reach 92,500 at build-out based on the most recent General Plan Update.
The City of Brentwood’s Wastewater Treatment Plant receives wastewater from approximately 20,294 residential connections, 609 commercial business and multi family connections. The City’s sewer system consists of approximately 233 miles of sewer pipe, ranging from 6 inches to 42 inches in diameter, and three lift stations (Sellers, Sellers Point, and Dreamcatcher). The City provides sewer service to businesses and residents within the City. The City maintains the sewer system with the use of two combination trucks (suction and high pressure jet cleaning hoses) and a CCTV (Closed Circuit Television) van to inspect the City’s infrastructure and laterals. The City also provides maintenance and emergency response services for the entire sewer system.
The tables below (Figures 1-1 & 1-2) outline the distribution of sewer system assets by size and age.

4 Element 1: GOALS
This section identifies the goals the City of Brentwood has developed for the management, operation, and maintenance of all parts of the sewer system. It also evaluates the role of the SSMP in supporting these goals.
Suggested SSMP from the CWEA: The standards for the operation and maintenance of a wastewater collection system are to properly operate and maintain all portions of the collection system, to report overflows, and to respond effectively to any overflows which may occur. The collection system agency’s goals should be at a high level which meets the requirements.
Goals:
The main goal of the City’s SSMP is to minimize the number and impact of sanitary sewer overflows (“SSO”) which occur. This plan aims to provide a standard set of protocols to provide consistent, efficient management and operation of the City’s collection system. The following list constitutes the SSMP goals:
1. Minimize the number and impact of SSOs.
2. Maintain existing infrastructure and plan for future CIP projects.
3. Continue to provide capacity evaluation for the collection system and plan for future growth.
4. Develop a plan to increase the number of staff as needed to meet the obligations of the SSMP.
5. Operate in a safe and efficient manner.
This SSMP provides quality, consolidated guidelines and procedures for all portions of the City’s sewer system management. The SSMP will contribute to the proper management of the collection system and assist the City in minimizing the frequency and impact of SSOs by providing guidance for appropriate maintenance, capacity management, and emergency response.

City of Brentwood
2025 SSMP
9 As it relates to an SSO, upon receiving a call regarding an overflow, Collection staff is first dispatched to investigate. They would notify the Senior Collection System Worker as to the severity of the overflow. The Senior Collection System Worker would then report to the Wastewater Operations Manager. These are three key elements in the process of reporting an SSO in addition to understanding the category the SSO falls under. When the spill is mitigated and the original problem is determined, a plan will be developed to fix the problem and minimize possible future SSOs at that location. The Wastewater Operations Manager, Senior Collection System Worker, and Collection Crew will work as a team to gather data which will be used to document and report the SSO. The City of Brentwood is dedicated to meeting requirements and to maintaining a productive sewer system.

11 3.4 Proper Design and Construction of Sewers and Connections Regulations pertaining to the design, construction, and inspection of private sewer systems, building sewers, and connections are included in Chapters 13.04.800 – 13.04.850 of the City of Brentwood’s Municipal Code.
3.5 Ensure access for maintenance, inspection, or repair for portions of the lateral owned or maintained by the Public Agency
Section 13.04.850 makes it a condition of continuing use and connection to the city sewerage system that the City have access to the lateral to inspect and verify the condition of the lateral.
Effective September 23, 2003, the Brentwood City Council approved a sewer lateral maintenance program for residents of single-family homes. The program was implemented to account for the costs associated with the maintenance, repair and/or replacement of the lower lateral located between the property line and main line. Section 13.04.820 states that each residential premises owner will be required to pay a monthly fee for the maintenance, repair, and/or replacement of their lower lateral as set forth by resolution of the City Council. The City will be responsible for the lower lateral so long as the lateral maintenance fee is paid. However, the City is not responsible for any sewer lateral of a commercial, industrial, and/or institutional sewer service.
3.6 Limit Discharge of FOG and Other Debris
As discussed under Element 4: Fats, Oils, and Grease (FOG) Control Program, City Municipal Code Sections 13.04.315 prohibits discharge of any substance into the sewer system which has characteristics which could threaten to cause an interference or passthrough in the City’s sewer lines. Section 13.04.400 requires the installation of a grease, oil and sand removal device when deemed necessary by the Public Works Director.
3.7 Enforcement Measures
City Municipal Code Title 13 Article 10 lists the various enforcement mechanisms the City can utilize to provide adequate mechanisms to achieve maximum compliance with the sewer system regulations. These mechanisms include, but are not limited to:
Informal administrative action
Administrative orders
Institution of a SEP
Assessment of charges for obstruction or damage
Suspension or termination of services
Administrative citations
Administrative complaints
Civil action
Criminal action

12 Element 4: OPERATION AND MAINTENANCE PROGRAM
This section of the SSMP discusses the City’s operations, maintenance and other related measures and activities. The section fulfills the Operation and Maintenance Program SSMP requirement for the SWRCB (Element 4).
4.1 Element 4 Appendix
Supporting information for Element 4 is included in Appendix B. This appendix includes the following documents:
1. Zone Map
2. SSMP Maintenance Log
3. Spare Parts and Equipment Inventory
4. Collection System SOP List
4.2 Collection System Map Discussion
The City has maps of all sewer and storm drain systems. These maps are kept electronically and accessed via the City’s intranet. Each manhole (sewer and storm) in the City limits has been assigned a GPS coordinate for its exact location. The maps show the location of lift stations, manhole ID, pipe size (as indicated on as-built plans), flow direction, and pipe diameter, as well as street names and addresses, and parcels ID numbers. The City is in the process of linking video files of pipeline inspections to the corresponding sections of piping on the maps. An example map is shown below in Figure 4-1.
Figure 4-1
City of Brentwood
2025 SSMP
13 The maps are maintained in the City’s GIS files through a software package called GeoVault, and are regularly updated as needed. The GIS files were originally created in 1999 and are continually updated as the City grows.
When errors are discovered on the maps, the error is reported to the GIS system administrator via a work order, or through direct discussion with the system administrator.
Maps are updated as new developments are accepted or when discrepancies are identified.
Hard copies of map books are printed annually and kept in vehicles. Digital based updated maps are available to the Collection System Workers via laptops and tablets.
4.3 Prioritized Preventive Maintenance Discussion
Preventive Maintenance tasks are accomplished by four Collection System Workers. The City prioritizes its preventive maintenance (PM) activities. The preventive maintenance program includes scheduled hot-spot cleaning, zone cleaning, zone CCTV inspections, regular inspection of pump stations, as well as investigating customer problems and complaints. The follow subsection summarizes the City’s preventive maintenance activities.
4.3.1 Sewer Cleaning
a. Hot-Spot Cleaning
Through the daily rounds procedures where heavy grease/problem areas and lift stations are checked, the City is able to identify sections of pipe that need cleaning more often than the normal 5-year cleaning schedule. Sections of pipe that are considered Hot-Spots depend on the history and causes of stoppages or overflows on that pipe.
Approximately 7,500 ft. of sewers (1% of the system) is included in the hot spot cleaning program. Hot-spots are inspected with the camera truck quarterly and cleaned using combo jet-vac trucks if needed. Hot-spot cleaning is typically a two-man (1 crew) job, occurs monthly, and accounts for ~5% of the Collection System Workers’ time.
In rare cases a location may be removed from the hot-spot list. This occurs if there is a direct action that eliminates whatever problem caused the location to be placed on the hot-spot list originally.
b. Zone Cleaning
The City’s Collections Division maintains a chart that documents and tracks the sewer lines inspected and /or cleaned across the five zones. The information on this schedule includes grid number, street name, start and finish manhole id number, length of pipe cleaned, amount of debris in the line, and a section to include information if the crew ran into any problems in the line.
City of Brentwood
2025 SSMP
14 Areas of the sewer system not included in the hot spot cleaning program are inspected and or cleaned on a 5-year cycle (~20% of City’s sewer system per year) by splitting the system into five zones. This 5-year cycle is consistent with industry standards and is achievable with current staffing levels. Zone cleaning accounts for ~35% of the collection System Workers’ time. Regular zone cleaning is normally a two-man (1 crew) job, unless traffic control requirements or other special circumstances necessitate additional manpower.
One such special circumstance is when main lines (18 inch diameter) are cleaned. Main line cleaning typically requires an additional person or crew and traffic control measures.
c. CCTV Inspections
Current practice is to inspect the sewer prior to cleaning. If the line is clear and there are no mechanical deficiencies, the line does not need to be cleaned.
If there is a significant amount of debris found, the line will be cleaned, or if a mechanical deficiency is found a repair can be scheduled. CCTV inspection accounts for ~35% of the collection System Workers’ time.
4.3.2 Root Control
The City of Brentwood does not have a Root Foaming Program because root intrusion has not been a significant issue to date. Instances of root intrusion have been increasing and staff will continue to monitor to determine if a root foaming program is necessary.
4.3.3 Lift Station Maintenance
The City has three lift stations, Sellers, Sellers Point, and Dreamcatcher. Sellers Point serves approximately 60 homes in an area too low to adequately flow by gravity and has approximately 500 feet of force-main. Dreamcatcher serves approximately 20 homes located at the bottom of a hill and has approximately 250 feet of force-main. Sellers lift station has roughly 40 feet of force-main and serves the south-eastern portion of the City. City maintenance staff performs a daily inspection of the City’s three lift stations, Sellers, Sellers Point and Dreamcatcher, from the surface (no confined space entry). Comprehensive pump station maintenance is performed by City staff to clean wet wells and check for problems with pumps. If pumps have an issue, they are sent out to be overhauled and/or repaired.
4.3.4 Odor Control
The City receives approximately one (1) to two (2) odor complaints per year. These complaints are often calls which are not sewer related, but are storm water related.
When there are complaints, City crews can jet clean sewer lines in the direct area to eliminate any possible odors and attempt to plug holes in manhole lids where odors may be escaping the system. The City does not currently have a formal odor control program.
City of Brentwood
2025 SSMP
15 4.3.5 Corrosion Control
Over 80 percent of the pipe material in the City’s collection system is SDR 35 (PVC), which does not need corrosion control. The remaining pipe is vitrified clay (VCP) which also does not require a corrosion control program.
4.3.6 Investigation of Customer Complaints
When the City receives a call regarding a sewer issue (stoppages, overflows, and odors) the information is given to the Collections staff, or the standby worker if the call is received after hours, and is responded to accordingly. Staff first assesses the situation and makes contact with the person who called to report the issue. If it is determined there is an issue with the collection system, a plan to resolve the issue is developed based on guidelines listed in the OERP or other SOP. During an afterhours event when standby personnel responds, they are directed to call in Collections System personnel if an overflow is observed.
The majority of complaints received by the City are related to stoppages occurring in residential laterals. During work hours, a Collections crew is diverted to investigate the stoppage. Most of the stoppages occur in the upper laterals, and are the responsibility of the homeowner. Although staff respond to all stoppage complaints, they are not responsible for clearing stoppages in laterals from the property line to the house. The City’s initial response time goal is 30 minutes.
Sewer call response actions are documented in the City’s CMMS program. This documentation contains the relevant information for each call. In the event a call is for an actual SSO, a separate file is generated for that SSO.
4.3.7 Maintenance Management and Work Orders
The City uses a CMMS (Computerized Maintenance Management System) program called Maintenance Connection to generate and track work orders and staff time.
Work Orders can be generated by the public via an online system, or by phone call, or City staff will generate a work order upon receiving notification by the public.
For purposes of a maintenance work tracking metrics assessment, the SSMP Maintenance Log in Appendix B is used.
4.4 Scheduled Inspections and Condition Assessment Discussion The City’s manholes, pipelines, and lift stations are informally assessed during PM inspection/cleaning discussed in section 4.3.1. If abnormal conditions are noticed, a plan for repair/replacement can be developed through the CIP process.
4.4.1 Manhole Inspection
As part of the hot spot and quadrant cleaning program, City maintenance staff visually inspect manholes for corrosion, debris or damage around the base, cracks or holes, condition of manhole steps, and also the manhole ring and lid for damage.
The City understands the importance of a robust manhole inspection program. High
City of Brentwood
2025 SSMP
16 priority manholes needing to be epoxy lined are prioritized and added to a CIP project.
All new construction projects are inspected by both a City inspector and a member of the Collection Crew. These inspections help the City verify the new construction is up to code and is not going to be a problem in the near future.
4.4.2 Pipeline Inspection
The City purchased a CCTV truck in June 2014 which has the capability of visually inspecting sewer mains. The truck uses an Envirosight camera system with Wincan software. The City has used this truck, with its formal coding system to inspect sewer lines and laterals, since its purchase.
Collections Crew uses the CCTV truck in its Zone and Hot Spot cleaning program when it feels there may be an offset, belly, or any deficiency in the lines being cleaned. Also, when there is a sewer backup or plug, and crews respond, the CCTV truck is used once the line is unplugged to inspect the lines for any problems (roots, offset, belly, debris). If a problem is identified, it is fixed by the City crew if it’s the City’s responsibility, or if it is the property owner’s responsibility, a video recording of the line is given to the property owner showing the problem which needs to be fixed.
Lateral sewer lines are not routinely inspected. If residents call and report a problem Collections Crew will respond with a push camera to inspect the lateral. If a lateral must be cleaned, it is inspected after being cleaned to ensure there are no additional problems with the lateral.
4.4.3 Pump Station Inspection and Assessment
The City has three lift stations, Sellers, Sellers Point, and Dreamcatcher, which are in excellent condition. The Sellers lift station was part of a CIP project in 2010 which completely refurbished the existing site. It was redesigned in a way so if a lift station failure occurred, the City is able to use the existing site with external pumps and generators without disrupting traffic or wastewater flow. The Sellers Point lift station serves approximately 60 homes at the south east corner of town. It was accepted into the City’s sewer system in 2019 and the City took ownership in 2022.
The Dreamcatcher lift station serves approximately 20 homes at the southwest end of town. It was accepted into the City’s sewer system in 2007.
The City inspects the lift stations daily. These daily inspections consist of a visual check of the wet wells, checking and cleaning of floats if needed, recording the hours on the meters for each pump at both stations, reading of PG&E meter numbers, checking for alarms on SCADA screen, and checking levels of wet well.
The lift stations are gone through at length every one to two years. Extensive maintenance includes cleaning out the wet well with pressure washing, use of the combo jet-vac truck to remove debris, and removing pumps for inspection and repairs if necessary.

2025 SSMP
17 4.5 Contingency Equipment and Replacement Inventories The City maintains an equipment inventory. All sewer maintenance equipment and replacement parts are stored at the City’s Corporation Yard. Equipment and spare parts are replaced as necessary based on the estimated useful and remaining life of the product. The Collections system spare parts and equipment inventory list is included in Appendix B.
The City keeps spare parts in inventory to minimize the sanitary sewer system down time during a needed repair. Spare parts include manhole rings and lids, hoses, couplings, nozzle heads for maintenance and emergency response equipment, and 4, 6, and 8 inch diameter PVC spare pipe.
Pump stations and the City’s trunk mains are considered to be “critical” parts of the system.
Emergency equipment stored by the City for the effective response to a crisis in these areas includes sewer bypass pumps, emergency backup generator, and the combination jet-vac trucks.
The City maintains an emergency trailer which can be used in the event emergency repairs to the collection system are needed. This trailer is stocked with a generator, compressor, plugs, barriers, cones, etc. In addition to Collections System personnel, Public Works stand-by staff members are trained to respond to after-hours calls with the trailer, ensuring the fastest response time to overflow occurrences.
4.6 Training Discussion
The City budgets for training its Collection System operations and maintenance staff each year. Providing training opportunities to enable all Collection System operations and maintenance staff to remain certified is a goal and requirement of the City. The City assists with certification by reimbursing the employees the original test fees once the certification test is passed. Current staff certifications include:
1 Collection System Worker I
3 Collection System Worker II’s
2 Collection System Worker III’s
The City uses numerous outside programs, as well as providing in-house and on-the-job training for sewer maintenance crews. Training programs used by the City include:
CWEA
Vendor sponsored training;
In-house training by supervisor and lead workers; and Safety meetings by experienced staff and/or vendors (i.e. Safety Fair)
City of Brentwood
2025 SSMP
18 The City has established a cross-training program where all qualified employees of the City (with a Class B license) have the ability to complete training in other departments with some monetary benefits. This training must be approved by all affected department supervisors/managers. Once approved, the training is conducted by a member of the collections crew. The trainee has the opportunity to learn all facets of the job including operating the jet-vac trucks, pipe and manhole cleaning and examination, lift station and hot spot check, and all tasks included in the collection crew cross-training program. To pass the cross-training, the individual must demonstrate competency in all skill sets including driving the trucks in order to get signed off as competent.

Section 08 of the City’s Standard Specifications addresses Sanitary Sewer Installation.
This section includes specifications on pipe, manhole, cleanout, and sewer lateral materials and construction methods, as well as sewer line pressure testing, acceptance, and final inspection by CCTV. These requirements provide reasonable assurance sewers constructed to these specifications will perform adequately with minimal infiltration or maintenance problems and will maintain their structural integrity for the duration of their intended useful lives. The City’s Standard Specifications are updated periodically to help prevent future problems in the City’s sewer system.
Many of the specifications included in Section 08 of the City’s Standard Specifications also apply to sewer pipeline rehabilitation and repair projects. Additional specifications related to sewer rehabilitation and repair will be added as needed when such projects are implemented by the City, or will be included in project-specific specifications.
The City owns three lift stations and does not anticipate many additional lift stations being built. Therefore, lift station plans and specifications are not included in the Standards.
Design standards and construction specifications for pump stations will be developed as needed on a project-specific basis should any new pump stations or pump station rehabilitation projects be implemented.

7.4 FOG Control Discussion
The City has determined a FOG control program is necessary per SSMP requirements.
Approximately 203 food service facilities are located within City limits and discharge to the City’s sewer system. City staff has noted the tendency for grease buildup in specific sewer lines. This section discusses measures the City takes to control FOG.
The City’s FOG control program consists of hot spot cleaning and maintenance as well as source control. The following subsections discuss identification and cleaning of greaseprone areas, legal authority to prohibit grease discharge or require a grease removal device, facility inspection, and public outreach.
7.5 Identification and Sewer Cleaning
The core means of FOG control utilized by the City is identification of trouble areas (hotspots) or sewer lines which are prone to grease accumulation, and targeted cleaning of these areas on a regular basis.
A. Identification of Grease Problem Areas – The City identifies potential grease problem areas by tracking locations and causes of blockages and SSOs. Also, debris type and severity are noted by maintenance crews during routine cleaning.
Areas with several restaurants or grease-producing facilities are also considered likely potential grease problem areas.
B. Hot Spot Cleaning – Approximately 7,500 feet of sewers are included in the hot spot cleaning program specifically for FOG control. Cleaning is generally done quarterly, but actual frequency depends on the history of stoppages or overflows on a line, recent inspection of lines during daily rounds, as well as areas expected to be prone to grease buildup. The City’s downtown area is older and has a larger number of restaurants; so some lines in this area are cleaned more frequently than others.
When cleaning and inspecting FOG related hotspots, the Collection Crew notes the date and time, manhole I.D. number, problems in line, and amount and type of debris found. This information is kept in a binder, and summarized in Maintenance Connection.
C. Blockage Investigation – The City CCTV inspects each sewer following a blockage.
If the source of the grease in a lateral or main can be identified, the City contacts the restaurant or source of the grease and takes appropriate action to eliminate the problems.
FOG removed from the collection system is disposed of at the WWTP by dewatering, drying, and disposing of the dried FOG via solid waste disposal.

2025 SSMP
26 7.6 Legal Authority
Legal measures available to the City to control sources of FOG are included in the Municipal Code, Chapter 13.04 Article 4: Grease, Oil, and Sand Interceptor Program. The City also incorporates the Uniform Plumbing Code into the Municipal Code by reference. The Municipal Code can be accessed in its entirety via the link below:
Chapter 13.04 SEWER SYSTEM – RULES AND REGULATIONS, of the City’s Municipal Code
7.7 Facility Inspections
The City is aware of areas where a significant amount of grease is being introduced into the system. The City hired an Environmental Compliance Inspector in 2019. The inspector works with businesses to manage problem areas with help from the collections crew. The FOG cleaning log will then be used to inspect lines as needed to verify for the inspector that restaurants are complying with regulations.
The City’s obligation is to develop a relationship between the restaurants and the inspector.
They must work together to accomplish a common goal of eliminating grease which is introduced to the sewer system at their location. The City will make sure the restaurants have all the information needed (Municipal Codes, etc.) to reach the common goal.
7.8 Public Outreach
The City conducts an annual Public Works Open House where the public has the opportunity to see what the City does for the community. During this open house, staff takes the opportunity to educate the individuals attending by showing them firsthand the cleaning equipment, CCTV truck, how to avoid sewer backups at home and restaurants, as well as some educational stories which help familiarize them on what not to put in the sewer system.
The City’s website, http://www.brentwoodca.gov is another source for the public to use. The City has distributed brochures to all its restaurants to help educate them on the impacts of FOG related problems and best management practices. This is all in an effort to improve Public Outreach.
7.9 FOG Enforcement Actions
There have been no FOG related enforcement actions since the SSMP was adopted in 2006.

27 Element 8: CAPACTIY MANAGEMENT
This section of the SSMP discusses the City’s capacity management measures, including the 2017 update of the Collection System Master Plan, and recommended capacity improvement projects.
This section fulfills the Capacity Management SSMP requirements for the RWQCB (Element 8).
The Wastewater Collection System Master Plan was last updated in 2017 to make sure growth throughout the City does not overwhelm the sewer system. Currently, the collection system is effective. There is a CIP projects related to the collection system identified in the current 5-year CIP schedule. This project is the Balfour Sanitary Sewer Rehabilitation Project.
8.1 Regulatory Requirements for Capacity Management
SWRCB Requirement: The wastewater collection system agency prepares and implements a capital improvement plan providing hydraulic capacity of key sewer system elements under peak flow conditions. This plan includes:
a. Evaluation: The agency identifies actions needed to evaluate those portions of the sewer system experiencing or contributing to an SSO discharge caused by hydraulic deficiency. The evaluation provides estimates of peak flows, estimates of the capacity of key system components, hydraulic deficiencies, and the major sources which contribute to the peak flows associated with overflow events. b. Design Criteria: The agency identifies and establishes appropriate design criteria.
c. Capacity Enhancement Measures: The agency Identifies the steps needed to establish a short- and long-term capital improvement plan (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 includes an implementation schedule and identifies sources of funding. d. Schedule: The agency develops a schedule of completion dates for all portions of the CIP developed in (a) through (c) above. This schedule is reviewed and updated at least every five years.
8.2 Capacity Evaluation Discussion
A Wastewater Collection System Master Plan was prepared for the City in 2001 following adoption of the 2001 City of Brentwood General Plan Update of the General Plan adopted in 1993. The Wastewater Collection System Master Plan was updated in 2006 to evaluate the areas of development and forecast wastewater system flow conditions with build-out occurring in the year 2021, and updated again in 2010 and 2017. Due to the drought from 2011-2016, per capita water use declined significantly. Along with this, wastewater collection system flows also decreased. Current estimates forecast that ultimate build-out system flows will be roughly 60% of previous estimates, indicating the collection system should have no hydraulic issues for the foreseeable future.
City of Brentwood
2025 SSMP
28 The 2017 Collection System Master Plan update made several notable assessments:
Unit flow and peaking factors were reevaluated based on actual flows seen at the WWTP, resulting in a decrease in modeled values from 126 gpcd to 69 gpcd. I&I values previously estimated at 1000 gpd/acre were significantly reduced based on WWTP data.
The City has not experienced any sanitary sewer overflows caused by hydraulic deficiencies in the sewer system. Modeling of the sewer system conducted during preparation of the 2017 Collection System Analysis Update showed no overflow due to hydraulic deficiencies. Future deficiencies were identified and have begun to be planned for future CIP projects.
8.3 Hydraulic Model
Hydraulic modeling of the wastewater collection system was performed for the 2006 Update using the H2OMap Sewer computer software. The hydraulic model update of the wastewater system was based on the 2006 hydraulic model, and analyzed the wastewater system conditions through the use of City maps, available as-built drawings and aerial imagery.
A City staff review of the 2006 update capacity assessment found discrepancies with respect to flows and tributary areas significant enough to warrant revising the model and re-analyzing the improvement recommendations for completion of the master plan. The unit flow and peaking factors the 2006 Plan used for dry weather factors were very high compared to actual flows measured at the Treatment Plant, indicating lower dry weather factors are more appropriate for city-wide planning.
Significant discrepancies between the Update report description of the design flows and actual model configuration found the need for more accurate flow loadings supported by geographic and existing system information.
A new hydraulic model was created in 2009 to correct trunk and interceptor sewer pipeline system discrepancies, eliminate small pipe diameter pipes from the network, correct odd changes in pipe diameters, and correct adverse pipe slopes.
The 2010 Update developed system improvements based on the City’s Design Criteria for designing new pipes and improvements for new developments instead of analyzing the system for operation under normal conditions of pipes flowing full, or analyzing for minor surcharges in the system.
Flow generation factors and peaking factors for Peak Dry Weather and Peak Wet Weather flows were developed based on recorded flows at the Wastewater Treatment Plant, and the water usage information generated for the Water System Master Plan prepared for the City in 2010. The 2010 update used a value of 126 gpcd for the hydraulic model. For the 2017 update, WWTP flow data was analyzed and it was determined that actual flows to the treatment plant have decreased to approximately 63 gpcd. Future WWTP flow projections are based on 69 gpcd. To align with those projections, 69 gpcd was also used for the 2017 hydraulic model.

2025 SSMP
29 Future flows were estimated based on the City’s General Plan Update EIR from 2014. Flows were estimated based on a combination of land use and land use flow factors adjusted based on comparisons to flow monitoring and water use data developed for the 2010 Water System Master Plan. The 2017 update modeled flows simulating an ultimate population of 92,000.

Water Quality Monitoring Program Plan
C-89
1. PURPOSE OF PROGRAM PLAN
The purpose of this Water Quality Monitoring Program Plan (WQMP or Plan) is to implement the recent requirements for sampling of sanitary sewer overflows (SSOs) greater than 50,000 gallons that reach surface waters. This plan conforms to the State Water Resources Control Board Waste Discharge Requirements Order No. 2006-0003-DWQ, Section D.7(v) and Monitoring and Reporting Program (MRP) Section D, Water Quality Monitoring Requirements issued by executive order number WQ 2013-0058- EXEC effective on September 9, 2013. This WQMP provides the City of Brentwood (City) policies and procedures to assure consistent conformance to the regulatory requirements and to establish procedures for City staff and contractors in their responses to large releases of sanitary sewage that reach surface waters. This WQMP is consistent with and supplemental to the Brentwood Overflow Emergency Response Plan, Element VI of its SSMP. Finally, this document will be used to coordinate training for the City’s new employees and regular refresher training for existing employees.
Additionally this Plan should also be useful for monitoring and sampling requirements that may be imposed upon the City from citizen suits under the Clean Water Act (CWA) resulting in settlement agreements, stipulated orders or consent decrees that can require monitoring and sampling of sanitary sewer overflows of any kind or size. This Plan establishes procedures for the identification of sampling locations, protocols for the proper collection of samples, the chain of custody for sample collections, the handling of samples, the reporting and recordkeeping to assure the legal integrity of monitoring for compliance with regulatory requirements. The plan will also establish policies and procedures that will be used to assure proper coordination between the taking and testing of samples, as well as assure that samples taken will satisfy the local regulatory agency's Basin Plan and the unique character of the City’s local service area and surface waters.
This Program Plan is intended to establish protocols for all sampling including when, where and how, establish the required water quality sample analyses that will be conducted, identifying the access and safety requirements related to sampling considerations as well as the identification of any local concerns that this monitoring plan should address. In addition, the Plan establishes the requirements for equipment calibration, notification requirements related to an overflow, recordkeeping requirements, staff training issues and requirements for the regular reviews and audits of the WQMP. Finally, all City forms used for water quality monitoring are included and available for any incident.

5. IDENTIFICATION OF LOCAL SURFACE WATERS AND CHARACTERISTICS An important element of any water quality monitoring program is the proper and thorough understanding of the service area and the various challenges the geography and sanitary sewer infrastructure of the service area present for the potential of wastewater reaching surface waters or storm water facilities. By evaluating the areas of concern in a service area such as lakes, rivers, dry creeks, aerial pipeline crossings over water ways and all storm water related infrastructure, the City can be better prepared to timely respond to any SSO reaching surface waters and to minimize the impacts of an SSO in or around local surface waters and storm water infrastructure.
A. Background Monitoring
Background monitoring of surface waters in the City’s service area is intended to provide a profile of the water quality with respects to the constituents measured on a semi-annual basis. This background data will serve as a reference point for determining the level, if any, of water quality impairment following an SSO impacting surface waters in the service area.
1. The Regulator Compliance Supervisor, Laboratory Technician, or Collection System Worker will perform background monitoring of Marsh Creek.
2. Background monitoring will occur twice annually, once in the dry weather season and once in the wet weather season.
3. Background monitoring will measure the following constituents:
Ammonia-N
Fecal Coliform
pH
Temperature
4. Samples will be analyzed in accordance with Sections 6.0 and 7.0.
City of Brentwood
Water Quality Monitoring Program Plan
C-94
5. Sample results will be filed and retained by the Regulatory Compliance Supervisor.
B. Surface Waters of Concern
For the purposes of this Plan, surface waters are defined as all waters whose surface is naturally exposed to the atmosphere, for example, rivers, lakes, reservoirs, ponds, streams, seas, estuaries, etc., and all springs, wells, or other collectors directly influenced by surface water. In addition, the City will also identify and evaluate areas where collection system pipelines and force mains cross over or under waterways as these crossings can require additional resources and equipment to properly address any SSO from these collection system assets.
Surface waters of concern are those surface waters with the City’s service area that may be impacted by a sanitary sewer overflow from the City’s sanitary sewer collection system. Prior review and evaluation of potential failure mechanisms can help minimize any potential impacts to surface waters or storm water infrastructure when and if the WQMP must be invoked. Any review of these important areas of potential surface water contamination in advance of an SSO should allow the City to be better prepared to respond to an SSO with the proper equipment and a better understanding of the procedures that may need to be invoked during the SSO such as flow rate of a creek or stream, and potential areas of significant environmental concern such as shell fish beds or fish habitats. In addition, having all storm water infrastructure located on the collection system field maps will help the City’s responders quickly determine if SSOs may flow into storm drains reach and impact surface waters.
The following (Table 5.1) are the surface waters of concern within the City’s jurisdiction:
City of Brentwood
Water Quality Monitoring Program Plan
C-95
Bog: Freshwater wetlands that are poorly drained and characterized by a buildup of peat.
Brackish Water: Generally, water containing dissolved minerals in amounts that exceed normally acceptable standards for municipal, domestic, and irrigation uses. Considerably less saline than sea water. Also, Marine and Estuarine waters with Mixohaline salinity (0.5 to 30 due to ocean salts). Water containing between 1,000-4,000 parts per million (PPM) Total Dissolved Solids TDS). The term brackish water is frequently interchangeable with Saline Water. The term should not be applied to inland waters.
Brook: A natural stream of water, smaller than a river or creek; especially a small stream or rivulet which breaks directly out of the ground, as from a spring or seep; also, a stream or torrent of similar size, produced by copious rainfall, melting snow and ice, etc.; a primary stream not formed by tributaries, though often fed below its source, as by rills or runlets; one of the smallest branches or ultimate ramifications of a drainage system.
Canal: A constructed open channel for transporting water.
Channel: An area that contains continuously or periodically flowing water that is confined by banks and a stream bed.
Culvert: A buried pipe that allows streams, rivers, or runoff to pass under a road.
Ditch: A long narrow trench or furrow dug in the ground, as for irrigation, drainage, or a boundary line.
Diversion channel: (1) An artificial channel constructed around a town or other point of high potential flood damages to divert floodwater from the main channel to minimize flood damages. (2) A channel carrying water from a diversion dam.
Drainage Channel: For the purposes of complying with the Statewide Sanitary Sewer Order, (1) a man-made canal used to transport storm water as part of a municipal separate storm sewer system, or (2) an intermittent or perennial stream bed.
Dry Wash: A streambed that carries water only during and immediately following rainstorms.
Ephemeral Streams: Streams which flow only in direct response to precipitation and whose channel is at all times above the water table.

Freshwater marsh: Open wetlands that occur along rivers and lakes.
Intermittent stream: Any nonpermanent flowing drainage feature having a definable channel and evidence of scour or deposition. This includes what are sometimes referred to as ephemeral streams if they meet these two criteria.
Perennial streams: Streams which flow continuously.
Pipe crossing: Crossing of a pipe or force main over or under a surface water body.
Riverine: Relating to, formed by, or resembling a river including tributaries, streams, brooks, etc.
Slough: A shallow backwater inlet that is commonly exposed at low tide.
Stream: A general term for a body of flowing water; natural water course containing water at least part of the year. In Hydrology, the term is generally applied to the water flowing in a natural channel as distinct from a canal. More generally, as in the term Stream Gaging, it is applied to the water flowing in any channel, natural or artificial.

7. SAMPLING PARAMETERS
A. Required Sampling Parameters
The RWQCB Basin Plan and/or NPDES permit set the water quality standards against which one can judge the levels of impacts of an SSO on surface waters.
In accordance with the SWRCB Revised MRP WQ 2013-0058, the following parameters will be sampled:
1. Ammonia
Ammonia-N, is a key indicator of the extent of the gross pollution of the receiving water from a SSO. Untreated wastewater or partially-treated wastewater is generally high in ammonia-N (typical 20-30 mg/L), in comparison the natural background concentration in the surface water is low, typically, less than 0.5 mg/L. Therefore, the elevated concentration of ammonia of the surface water downstream or at the site of the SSO, as compared to that upstream of the site is a reasonable indication of the extent of gross contamination from the SSO.
City of Brentwood
Water Quality Monitoring Program Plan
C-98
2. Bacteriological Indicator as specified in the local Basin Plan Fecal coliform count is an indicator of potential public health impacts of an SSO on the receiving waters. If the concentrations of this group of bacteria are elevated above and beyond the natural background and/or above the RWQCB Basin Plan Water Quality Standards (objective), public notification and posting may be necessary.
It should be noted that there may be non SSO-related causes of elevated bacteria in surface water, for example, animal sources or storm drain discharge. The upstream and or other samples may reflect the extent of bacterial contamination from these sources. Sometimes the extent of the SSO may be indistinguishable from the other natural sources beyond the City’s control. This is particularly true when taking Source samples based on an estimated downstream location of the SSO plume (reference Section 7F).
Generally, if the concentrations of these groups of bacteria at the downstream or at the site of impact are within the range of the non-impacted site (i.e. upstream) or levels indicated in historical background monitoring levels, the water quality impacts of the SSO are considered insignificant.
The surface water quality objectives of these groups of bacteria are shown in Table 7.1 and
7.2, below.

4. pH
Discussion: Just as “degree” is a measure of temperature, pH is a measure of how acidic or basic the water is. Water pH is critical to fish habitat because it can affect fish egg production and survival, aquatic insect survival and emergency, and the toxicity of other pollutants such as heavy metals or ammonia.
Like water temperature, pH naturally varies both daily and seasonally.
Most daily cycles in pH occur as a result of the
photosynthesis of aquatic plants. Through photosynthesis, plants convert the sun’s energy into chemical products they need to live and grow. During daylight hours, aquatic plants consume carbon dioxide (an acid), and produce hydroxide (a base). As a result, water becomes more basic during the day (pH values get higher) and usually peaks mid- to latePage 95 of 487 City of Brentwood
Water Quality Monitoring Program Plan
C-102
afternoon. Virtually all aquatic organisms produce carbon dioxide (an acid) through their normal metabolism of food (respiration). As a result, water becomes more acid during the night (pH values drop) and usually is lowest just before sunrise.
Sample Container: None, in-field measurement
Sample Type: Grab
Hold Time: 15 minutes
Preservative: None
Analytical Method: Direct read pH meter, calibrated per manufacturer’s instructions prior to use.
5. Temperature
Discussion: Water temperature is a key factor affecting the growth and survival of all aquatic organisms. The effect of stream temperature on fish, amphibians, macroinvertebrates, etc. varies between species and within the life cycle of a given species (Armour 1991; Beschta et al. 1987; Bjornn and
Reiser 1991; Lantz 1971; DEQ 1995). As stream
temperatures increase, the amount of dissolved oxygen (DO) available to aquatic biota decreases. As a result, even if food is abundant at higher temperatures, decreases in DO may metabolically stress aquatic organisms, further increasing their susceptibility to disease.
Sample Container: None, in-field measurement
Sample Type: Grab
Hold Time: None
Preservative: None
Analytical Method: Direct read temperature meter, calibrated per manufacturer’s instructions prior to use.
6. Dissolved Oxygen
Discussion: The dissolved oxygen concentration is an indication of the potential impacts of the spill on the biological community of the receiving water. The dissolved oxygen concentration of <2 mg/L downstream or at the site of the spill is an indication of serious biological impacts including potential fish kill.
Generally, the dissolved oxygen at the downstream should not drop below 5 & 7 mg/L for warm and cold water, respectfully. Sample Container: Non, in-field measurement
Sample Type: Grab
Hold Time: 15 minutes
Preservative: None
Analytical Method: Direct read temperature meter, calibrated per manufacturer’s instructions prior to use.

B. Calibration and Record Keeping
Each piece of equipment is required to have an up-to-date calibration and maintenance logbook.
The logbook will be maintained to have consecutively numbered pages and shall contain at least the following:
Date
Calibration Results
Calibration comments
Initials of the individual calibrating the instrument Each instrument must be clearly identified (e. g., the make, model, serial and/or ID number) to differentiate among multiple meters.
The appropriate calibration procedure must be followed pursuant to City standard calibration operating procedure and if the instrumentation does not have an electronic program that maintains a running calibration log, then the results must be recorded in the logbook each time a piece of field equipment is used, along with the date and name/initials of the person performing the calibration.
If difficulty is encountered in calibrating an instrument, or if the instrument will not hold calibration, this information must also be recorded. Malfunctioning equipment should not be used to collect data. Steps should be taken to correct the problem as soon as possible. All equipment maintenance should be recorded in the logbook indicating what was done to correct the problem, along with the date and signature/initials of the staff person that corrected the problem.
9. Sampling Procedures
City of Brentwood
Water Quality Monitoring Program Plan
C-104
A. Sample Location and Identification Procedures:
Samples will be collected by the Regulatory Compliance Supervisor, Laboratory Technicians, Collection System Workers, or Public Works Standby personnel. The most precise and accurate analytical measurements are worthless and even detrimental if performed on a sample that was improperly collected and stored, or was contaminated in the process. The purpose of sampling and analysis is to provide data that can be used to interpret the quality or condition of the water under investigation.
Unfortunately, water quality characteristics are not spatially or temporally uniform from one effluent to another. A sampling program must recognize such variations and provide a basis for compensations for their effects. The sample must be:
1. representative of the material being examined;
2. uncontaminated by the sampling technique or container;
3. of adequate size for all laboratory examinations;
4. properly and completely identified;
5. properly preserved, and
6. delivered and analyzed within established holding times.
These six requirements are absolutely necessary for a proper assessment of water quality.
It is impossible to establish hard and fast rules concerning sampling locations. However, the following general guidelines should be applied whenever City personnel conduct surface water sampling:
1. The sampling location should be far enough upstream or downstream of confluences or point sources so that the surface water and SSO volume is well mixed. Natural turbulence can be used to provide a good mixture.
2. Samples should be collected at a location where the velocity is sufficient to prevent deposition of solids, and to the extent practical, should be in straight reach having uniform flow. All flow in the reach should be represented, so divided flow areas should be avoided and samples should be taken towards the middle of the reach where feasible.
3. Sampler must always stand downstream of the collection vessel, and sample “into the current”. Care must be taken to avoid introducing re-suspended sediment into the sample.
B. Sample Types:
Grab samples are appropriate for the characterization of surface waters at a particular time and place, to provide information about minimum and maximum concentrations, to allow for the collection of variable sample volume.
Grab samples may be collected directly into the sample container, or a clean decontaminated intermediate container may be used if a wading sample is not possible or safe. If an intermediate container is used, when in the field, double rinse the sampling device (bucket, automatic sampler) with sample water prior to collecting the sample and be sure to discard rinse water downstream of where sample will be collected. If samples are collected in a bucket and distributed a consolidation collection container, swirl the contents of the bucket as it is being
City of Brentwood
Water Quality Monitoring Program Plan
C-105
poured into the consolidation collection container to avoid settling of solids (and pour in back and forth pattern – e.g., 1-2-3-3-2-1).
Grab Sample: A grab sample is defined as an individual sample collected at a given time. Grab samples represent only the condition that exists at the time the sample is collected (US EPA 1977).
Surface Grab Sample: A sample collected at the water surface (i.e. skimming) directly into the sample container or into an intermediate container such as a clean bucket. A single or discrete sample collected at a single location.
Field Blanks are used to evaluate the potential for contamination of a sample by site contaminants from a source not associated with the sample collected (e.g., airborne dust, etc.).
Sterile, deionized water is taken into the field in a sealed container. This is the stock water.
The stock water is then poured into the sample container. The containers and sample submission forms are labeled as “Field Blank“. The same template selected for the test samples should be used. Field blanks are subject to the same holding time limitations as samples. The appropriate FIELD QC box on the sample Chain of Custody form should be checked.
C. Decontamination Procedures
Removing or neutralizing contaminants from sampling equipment minimizes the likelihood of sample cross contamination, reduces or eliminates transfer of contaminants to clean areas, and prevents the mixing of incompatible substances.
Gross contamination can be removed by physical decontamination procedures. These abrasive and non-abrasive methods include the use of brushes, air and wet blasting, and high and low pressure water cleaning.
The decontamination procedure described above may be summarized as follows:
1. Physical removal
2. Non-phosphate detergent wash
3. Tap water rinse
4. Distilled/deionized water rinse
5. 10% nitric acid rinse
6. Distilled/deionized water rinse
7. Solvent rinse (pesticide grade)
8. Air dry
9. Distilled/deionized water rinse
D. Sample Labeling and Chain of Custody Procedures
A sample is a physical evidence of a facility or the environment. An essential part of all enforcement investigations is that evidence gathered be properly documented. To accomplish this, the following sample identification and chain of custody procedures are established.
1. The method of sample identification depends on the type of measurement or analyses performed. When in-situ measurements are made, the data are recorded directly in Field
City of Brentwood
Water Quality Monitoring Program Plan
C-106
Data Worksheets with identifying information, field observations, and remarks. Examples of in-situ measurements are:
pH
Temperature
Dissolved Oxygen
Stream Flow Measurement
Samples other than in situ measurements must be identified by a sample label. These samples are removed from the sample location and transported to a laboratory for analyses. Before removal, however, a sample is often separated into portions depending upon the analyses to be performed. Each portion is preserved in accordance with applicable procedures and each sample container is identified by a sample label.
2. At a minimum, the following grab samples will be collected, in duplicate:
Field Blank: See Section 9.B for discussion.
Upstream: This sample will be collected far enough upstream of the SSO’s point of entry into the surface water as to be free of contaminants from the SSO. Typically, 50- feet is sufficient, but this may vary depending on circumstances of Source: Immediate vicinity where the SSO entered the surface water. This point will actually be downstream of the actual SSO entry point for SSO’s that have stopped entering the surface water to be sampled. If the SSO has stopped, calculate the approximate downstream distance from the original SSO location by dividing the time since the SSO occurred by the estimated velocity. This is the approximate downstream distance from the SSO discharge point to the “source” sampling location. o Due to possible tidal action in the surface water or other factors, another method may be used to determine the “source” location at the discretion of the Wastewater Operations Manager.
o See Section 9.F for information on determining velocity of the surface water in order to determine the Source sample location.
“Downstream” of SSO: This sample will be collected far enough downstream to be representative of the water quality of the surface water after adequate mixing of the surface water and the SSO have occurred. Typically, this location will be 50-feet downstream of the Source sample, but this may vary on the size and velocity of the surface water to be sampled.
3. Sample labels shall be completed for each sample, using waterproof ink. The information recorded on the sample tag/label includes:
Date: a six digit number indicating the year, month, day of collection Time: a four-digit number indicating military time of collection (e.g., 0954) Sample Location: sampling location description as either Upstream, Source, or Downstream
Samplers: each sampler is identified
Parameter/preservative: the analysis to be conducted for the sample /sample preservation
City of Brentwood
Water Quality Monitoring Program Plan
C-107
4. Photos or video of each sample location will be taken, properly labeled with date, time, and view direction and a map of the photo locations completed. Photos and videos shall include relevant landmarks to identify sampling locations and their surroundings.
Due to the evidentiary nature of samples collected during enforcement investigations, possession must be traceable from the time the samples are collected until they are analyzed. To maintain and document sample possession, chain of custody procedures (Attachment C) are followed. A sample is under custody if:
It is in your possession, or
It is in your view, after being in your possession, or It was in your possession and under your control to prevent tampering, or It is in a designated secure area.
5. As few people as possible should handle samples. The person taking the samples is personally responsible for the care and custody of the samples collected until they are transferred or dispatched properly.
6. Samples are accompanied by a chain of custody record. When transferring the possession of samples, the individuals relinquishing and receiving will sign, date, and note the time on the record. This record documents sample custody transfer from the sampler, often through another person, to the analyst at the laboratory. The samples are typically transferred to the sample-receiving custodian at the laboratory.
E. Safety Considerations
Personal safety of staff engaged in any fieldwork activity (e.g., in transit, walking or hiking, and any field activities while at the sample site) is of primary importance. Staff should never place themselves in dangerous or risky situations. Any hazards that are known by field personnel should be communicated to other members of the field crew.
Fieldwork should be postponed if there is indication that engagement in the field activity could cause bodily harm. Working during lightning storms, at night, in heavy vegetation or poison oak, near aggressive wildlife or domestic animals, traversing steep or rugged terrain, unstable slopes or creek banks, near swiftly moving water or potential flash flood conditions, or during snowy weather is not considered "normal risk". If any member of the field crew is uncomfortable with a reasonable self-determined hazardous field condition, it is that person’s responsibility to bring this to the attention of the on-site field supervisor or their supervisor. A “reasonable selfdetermined hazardous field condition” is defined as other than normal risk. Supervisors shall not dismiss any person’s spoken concerns that field conditions are too hazardous to complete the work assignment.
The person taking the samples must have adequate protection, including protective clothing.
They must wear gloves, as protection against chemical and/or bacteriological hazards, while they are sampling or handling samples that are known or suspected to be hazardous (e.g. visible solids or sheens, downstream from sewage spills, etc.), or if hands have open wounds.
The type of gloves worn shall be determined by the sampling circumstance and type of
City of Brentwood
Water Quality Monitoring Program Plan
C-108
pollutants expected – for instance longer gloves are needed when samples must be taken well below the surface.
When wading in a stream, a personal floatation device shall be worn at all times. Other protective measures shall be taken in accordance with Brentwood safety procedures.
Upon arrival at a sampling site, safety equipment such as signs, cones, lights, etc. shall be set out as appropriate. Vehicles shall be parked in locations and directions to minimize traffic disruption and avoid sample contamination. Photos should be ultimately taken of the placement of all safety equipment and signage
The following guidelines apply to all fieldwork by City staff. No sample or measurement is worth the risk of injury. All staff shall use proper personnel protective gear as appropriate for the incident (e.g., life preservers, gloves, goggles, etc.)
Field sampling crews should consist of at least two members unless otherwise approved by a supervisor.
Be conscious of the whereabouts of rattlesnakes, mountain lions, and other dangerous animals.
Open body wounds are entry sites for infection; take the necessary precautions for self-protection.
If there is storm activity in the work area, wait for safer conditions to develop or postpone the sampling.
Do not sample at night without approval from your supervisor. Do not trespass on private property, or posted restricted public lands without prior permission and written approval from property owner or administrator. If strange or suspicious looking people are in the work area, either wait for them to leave or postpone the work to a later time. Do not force confrontations with strangers and back away from any confrontations with the public. Be courteous and understanding of public concerns of the situation.
Take the necessary precautions against exposure to harmful weather conditions such as heat, wind, snow, cold, rain, etc.
Carefully evaluate a given on-site situation to determine if the task can be performed safely. Wear protective footwear when entering streams.
Do not enter the stream if the water is flowing too fast.
F. Stream Velocity Measurements
If sampling is performed after the SSO has stopped, the velocity of the impacted surface water must be determined in order to estimate SSO travel time and select an accurate Source sample location. One way to measure the SSO travel time is to use a velocity probe (such as a Global Water FP111-S Flow Probe) to determine the rate of flow in the water body. In cases where a water velocity probe is used, the manufacturer’s instructions will be followed.
G. Grab-n-Go Sampling Kit
City of Brentwood
Water Quality Monitoring Program Plan
C-109
The City maintains a Grab-n-Go sampling kit located at the WWTP Lab. The kit is inspected quarterly by a Collections System Worker. Additionally, any Brentwood staff utilizing the kit is responsible for notifying the Regulatory Compliance Supervisor of the need for decontaminating sampling equipment and field monitoring devices and replenishing the kit.

14. INTERNAL REVIEW AND UPDATE OF THE WQMP
The WQMP is a requirement of the WDR and MRP regulations and therefore the WQMP must be adopted by the City governing board when completed and thereafter at the same time as the new adoption of the SSMP every five years or when major changes to the SSMP are required. Internal reviews of the WQMP should be conducted at a minimum with City SSMP audits or with a failure analysis following a SSO event requiring the use of this WQMP. This latter evaluation should be used to determine if any procedures or program changes would improve the WQMP.
The internal review of the WQMP must include a thorough review of the then existing WQMP against actual performance by the agency staff and testing laboratory during and after the event.
All documents associated with the water quality sampling should be reviewed and included in the SSO file and compared to the requirements in this Plan. Particular attention should be given to all dates and times associated with the monitoring, proper tests in support of the Regional Board Basin Plan, proper completion of the Chain of Custody, equipment calibration documentation of all equipment used for sampling and available photographs or video of the sampling processes, review and sign-offs by all responsible parties, review of the sampling locations map, final lab results and the certification report that the Technical Report was submitted within 45 calendar days of the end of the SSO to the CIWQS system.
In addition, the City should also conduct regular reviews of the WQMP at least annually or along with the bi-annual SSMP Audit required by the WDR. The review should be undertaken to determine that all information in the Program is current, that all classification responsibilities have not changed, that all forms are still appropriate and that all contract relationships with testing laboratories, if not associated with the agency, are still current and available 24 hours per day and 7 days per week. The review should also include a review of the Regional Board Basin Plan to assure continuing conformance with the Basin Plan.
This internal review should be conducted by senior management of the collection systems personnel, laboratory management and any outside contract laboratory services subsequent to any event or once per year if the WQMP has not had to be invoked during the preceding year.
Finally, a schedule and assignment of responsibility for completion of the recommended changes should be prepared along with additions to the SSMP Change Log for these changes and modifications of the WQMP.
CHANGE LOG
The new MRP, Section E.3 requires that all changes to the Sanitary Sewer Management Plan be recorded and documented using an SSMP Change Log indicating what section is being change, a description of the changes, and the person or persons authorizing the changes. Because the WQMP is required by the WDR and MRP, it is also necessary that changes to the WQMP be included in the documentation of changes to the SSMP. Any changes resulting from Section 14 above should be added to the Change Log of the SSMP upon implementation and adoption of the changes as required by the WDR.

Ways to Prevent Backups in Your Sewer Lateral and in the City Main Property owners can do many things to prevent their laterals from backing up. If everyone would be very careful about how they dispose of certain products, our system would be a much more efficient. There would be fewer backups/overflows; saving the City and homeowners the cost of correction and/or replacement.
Grease: Cooking oil should be poured into a heat-resistant container and disposed in the garbage after it cools off, not down the drain. When the grease goes down the drain, cools off, and solidifies either in the drain, the property owner’s line, or in the sewer main; the line can become constricted, and potentially clog causing a sewer overflow.
Paper Products: Paper towels, diapers, and feminine products cause a great deal of problems in the property owner’s lateral as well as in the City main. These products do not deteriorate quickly, unlike bathroom tissue. They become lodged in a portion of the lateral/main, causing a sewer overflow. These products should also be disposed of properly in the garbage. Roots: Shrubs and trees, seeking moisture, will make their way into sewer line cracks and connections. These roots can cause extensive damage. They may start out small, but as the tree or shrub continues to grow, so do the roots. In time, this may cause your sewer line to break, which in turn allows debris to hang up in the line on the roots, thus causing a backup. When planting greenery; place 5-7 feet from your sewer line to help prevent root intrusion. If you have continuing problems with roots in your lateral, you may have to remove the tree or shrub associated with the roots.
Sewer Odor: Another concern property owners have is they can smell sewer odors inside their home or building. Under each drain in your plumbing system, there is a “P-Trap”. If there is water in this fitting, odors or gasses from the sewer cannot enter through the drain from either the property owner’s lateral or the City main. Periodically check to make sure unused floor drains, sinks etc. have water in the “P-trap”. Another way to prevent sewer odor is to ensure the vents, which are located on your roof, are free from bird nests, leaves, etc. When these vents are clear, the sewer odors will escape through these vents.
Illegal Plumbing Connections: Do not connect French drains, sump pumps and other flood control systems to your sanitary sewer. It is illegal, and debris and silt will clog your line. You may need to consult a plumber to correct any illegal connections. Needles: The presence of hypodermic needles in the wastewater collection system presents special and possible deadly problems for wastewater collection and wastewater treatment employees. PLEASE DO NOT FLUSH NEEDLES. The proper method of disposal is to re-cap the needle and put it into a “sharps container”. When full, tape the container securely, and call your local pharmacy for advice on proper disposal methods. For disposal sites in the area go to http://www.safeneedledisposal.org/centers.html to find the nearest location. PLEASE DO NOT FLUSH THEM OR THROW THEM INTO THE GARBAGE!

What Causes a Sewer Back-up?
Kitchen grease, food scraps, egg shells, potato peels, excessive toilet paper, disposable diapers, baby wipes and feminine products can accumulate and cause a blockage
Tree roots seeking moisture can grow through joints and cracks in the lines, causing a blockage Vandals have stopped up lines by putting bricks, concrete, wood, oil filters, construction debris, and garbage into the sewer lines Illegal hookups allow excess water into the lines. Outside stairwell drains, sump pumps, roof leaders, and drain gutters should never be connected to the sewer system. A sewer system is designed to carry a predetermined amount of sewage. Rain water not only overloads the system, but also raises the cost of the treatment process
To protect your property follow these simple Do’s and Don’ts; DON’T Put diapers or sanitary napkins in the toilet
DON’T Dispose of grease down the drain
DON’T Plant trees near sewer lines
DON’T Connect any drains or sump pumps to the sewer system Do locate and keep accessible the sewer cleanout in your front yard. If you do not have a cleanout, have one installed by a plumber. The cleanout is the property owner’s responsibility
Do check your homeowner’s insurance policy. If you are not covered for back-ups, call your agent for information on costs and coverage options Do You Know Where Your Cleanout Is?
The cleanout is a pipe located near the property line which rises from your sewer line to about 4” below ground level and is capped in a sewer cleanout box
Quite frequently, the cleanout becomes buried or hidden over the years and is forgotten. In some cases, older homes may never have had a cleanout installed
As a property owner, you are responsible for your cleanout. If the cleanout is buried, a plumber should be able to locate and raise it for you What About The Cost Involved In The Clean Up?
The Wastewater Division is very sensitive to your feelings for the inconvenience caused by a sewer back-up in your home. The City is responsible for maintaining the wastewater lines from the main line to your property line. We clean a quarter of the City’s sewer system each year and take pride in eliminating sewer back up all together. The City also checks all areas of concern each day to make sure we are doing our part to eliminate overflows. Public Works personnel will respond immediately to investigate and resolve collection system or storm drain issues...with your help; we can reduce sewer backups.
It is the homeowners’ responsibility to maintain the house cleanouts and sewer lateral from the property line to the house.

OTHER CAUSES OF SEWER
OVERFLOWS
The continual flow of nutrient-filled water
found in sewer lines can attract tree roots
through pipe joints and manholes. The
roots can then grow, forming blockages in
the pipes. Always avoid planting trees and
shrubs near residential and City sewer
lines.
Rock, debris, vandalism and construction
are also factors which can contribute to
sewer overflows.
About The City of Brentwood
The City of Brentwood’s sanitary sewer
system collects and treats an average of 3.5
million gallons of wastewater per day at its
city owned and operated treatment plant.
The city serves an estimated 58 thousand
residents and more than 1000 current
businesses within the city limits.
Report Sewer Overflows!!

COOKING GREASE
Cooking grease is one of the primary causes
of sewer overflows throughout the City of
Brentwood’s sanitary sewer system. Sewer
overflows can not only pollute streams,
rivers, and the Bay, they can endanger
public health.
All cooking oils disposed of improperly
can cause problems in the sewer system.
These include:
Frying oil
Salad oil
Soups
Meat drippings
Bacon fat
Greasy leftovers
IMPORTANT FACTS
Cooking grease clogs pipelines in much
the same way fatty foods clog human
arteries. The grease clings to the inside of
a pipe, builds up and eventually causes a
complete blockage.
Costly home plumbing bills are often the
result of grease-clogged pipes. Residential
laterals can clog easily since they are only
4” inches in diameter.
Many people are unaware that pouring
hot water and detergent down the drain
only breaks up grease temporarily.
Grease should never be poured down the
drain. If a small amount of grease gets in
your drain, flush immediately.
Step 1
Small amounts of cooking oil and grease
should be poured into a disposable
container (can, milk or juice carton) and
put in the trash. Larger amounts of used
cooking oil should be brought to the
Household Hazardous Waste Collection
Facility for disposal. Call 800-646-1431
for any information.
Step 2
Dishes and pots coated with grease
should be wiped clean with a disposable
paper towel prior to being washed in the
sink or dishwasher.
Step 3
Do not put egg shells, meat trimmings, or
scraps in the garbage disposal; always
put them in the trash.

Introduction
The California State Water Resources Control Board adopted Order No. 2006-0003 (State Order) on May 2, 2006, to create an equitable statewide mechanism to manage all publicly owned wastewater collection agencies with more than one 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.
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 (SSMP).
The City of Brentwood’s SSMP was certified and implemented on July 31, 2009, in accordance with the State Order.
One of the provisions of the State Order is that agencies perform an internal audit of the SSMP every two years. These audits are to focus on evaluating the effectiveness of the SSMP and the Enrollee’s compliance with the SSMP requirements identified in section D.13., including identification of any deficiencies in the SSMP and what steps are/will be taken to correct them.
The SSMP is required to be updated every six years, and the update must include any significant program changes. If significant changes are made, the SSMP must be re-certified by the City Council.
A revised version of the SSMP, based on the 2013 Internal Audit, was presented to the City Council and approved on May 14, 2013. In 2014 the City began a comprehensive review and update of the SSMP.
This review led to many changes and updates to the SSMP which were incorporated in 2016. On May 9, 2017 City Council passed resolution 2017-58 approving the 5-year SSMP (2017 Revision). Again on October 25, 2022 City Council approved the latest 5-year SSMP (2022 revision) by passing resolution 2022-128 based on the findings of the 2021 Internal Audit.
Most recently The California State Water Resources Control Board adopted Order No. 2022-0103-DWQ on December 6th, 2022. This order has revised the frequency for the SSMP internal audits to be performed every three years and the SSMP Update to be reported every six years.
Background and System Overview
The City of Brentwood (City) was incorporated in 1948 as a General Law City. The City is predominately a bedroom community, of approximately 65,350 residents, that collects and treats wastewater generated almost exclusively by domestic (household) users. The City currently has no categorical significant industrial users. The bulk of the commercial businesses are retail food establishments, retail grocery stores, home improvement centers and retail department stores.
The City has a service area of nearly 12 square miles with roughly 329 miles of City owned and maintained sanitary sewer piping systems (including lower laterals) and three lift stations. The City’s sewer mains range in diameter from six inches to 42 inches with approximately 80% of these lines being eight inches in diameter or smaller. Nearly all of the sewer laterals are four inches in diameter. Similar to other organizations, the City maintains a portion of the residential sewer laterals. The City maintains the “lower” lateral for single family residences, which is defined as the portion of the lateral extending from the edge of the property line (typically the back of the sidewalk) to the sewer main.

Summary of SSO Events and Data
The City of Brentwood had five SSO’s in 2022, seven SSO’s in 2023, and six SSO’s in 2024 (total volume = 3075 gallons). The chart below (Figure 1) shows the number of recorded SSO’s and the calculated number of SSO’s per 100 mile of sewer main line since the City began tracking SSO events in 2007. This data represents an average of 2.8 SSO’s per year, 1.1 SSO’s per 100 mile of sewer main, and is considered indicative of a very high performing collection system.
Figure 1
Figure 2 below shows a 18-year history of SSO volumes. Of the 23,869,600,000 gallons of sewage that flowed through the City’s collection system since 2007 a total of 10,209 gallons left the system as SSO’s. Since the City began measuring SSO’s the highest annual total SSO volume was 2024 gallons.
The 18-year average annual total SSO volume is 567 gallons per year, with a per-event average volume of 200 gallons.

Until 2013, the total footage of sewer mainline cleaning was relatively consistent. Beginning in 2013 the City transitioned to more of a proactive investigation of sewer mainlines rather than a “blind cleaning” method. Covid-19 caused a significant decline in the amount of mainline maintenance done in 2020. Figure 4 below compares the overall footage of cleaning versus CCTV inspecting per year.

Figure 5 is a map of the City’s entire collection system with the locations of all the SSOs since 2007.
This map serves as an indicator of overall system health. The majority of overflows have occurred in the downtown area and Central Blvd corridor. Of these, most have been category 3 and 4 lateral overflows caused by root intrusion, pipe seperation, and/or FOG buildup. The city has recently hired two additional Collections Maintenance Workers to be part of a lateral repair team. This team will start their focus on this area first due to the history of lateral SSOs.

Review the SSMP to determine if it complies with the State Order by having a goal to provide a plan to manage, operate, and maintain all parts of the City of Brentwood Wastewater Collection System.
Sufficiency: Complies.
Findings: The City has established a list of goals in its SSMP that complies with the goals established in the State Order.
The City’s Goals for the SSMP together with progress to date are as follows:
1. To minimize the number and impact of SSOs;
Complete. Adherence to the SSMP has helped limit the average number of SSOs to
2.8 per year with an average total volume of 567 gallons per year since the SSS WDR was adopted in 2007.
2025 SSMP
Appendix E
E-2
2. To maintain existing infrastructure and plan for future Capital Improvement Projects (CIPs);
Complete. Adherence to the SSMP coupled with sound planning has resulted in an up-to-date infrastructure with no major deficiencies. The average age of the collection system piping is approximately 23 years.
3. To continue to provide capacity evaluation for the collection system and plan for future growth;
Complete. A Wastewater Collection System Master Plan was prepared in 2001 and subsequently updated in 2006 to accommodate a rapidly growing community.
Additional updates were prepared in 2010 and 2017 to forecast collection system flow conditions at the current General Plan “build-out”, taking into account changes in water use as a result of the drought years in 2013-2015. The 2017 update provided recommendations for capital improvement projects to optimize the collection system to handle the planned growth.
4. To develop a plan to increase the number of staff to meet the obligations of the SSMP;
Complete. The City added one full-time Collection System Worker in FY 2014/15.
An additional Collection System Worker was hired in FY 2018/19. Two additional full-time Collection System Workers were hired FY 2024/2025 for a total of 6 employees in the department. Staffing levels are reviewed annually through a Citywide 10-year staffing plan.
5. To operate the Collection System in a safe and efficient manner, thus maximizing production;
Complete. There were no lost-time injuries associated with the collection system since the last audit period.

3. Audit of Legal Authority – State Order D.13.iii
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 sewers and connections, ensure access for maintenance, inspection, and repair of laterals, limit the discharge of blockage causing debris, and enforce any violation of sewer ordinances.
Sufficiency: Complies
Findings: The City has an adopted Municipal Code that addresses the legal authority required to carry out actions identified in the SSMP. Specifically, section 13 of the Brentwood Municipal Code prohibits illicit discharges, sets standards for the design of sewers and connections, and provides a means to enforce violations of the provisions within the Code. In March 2015, the City adopted a revision to section 13 (Sewers) of the Municipal Code. A link to the Municipal Code is included in the electronic version of the SSMP and is available on the City’s website.
Reference: COB SSMP, Element 3
City of Brentwood Municipal Code, Section 13.
Recommendation: None
4. Audit of Operation and Maintenance Program – State Order D.13.iv
Review the SSMP and activities of staff, consultants, and contractors to determine compliance with the State Order by having (a) an up-to-date map of the Collection System that shows all pipe reaches, manholes, siphons, diversion structures, and pump stations and (b) a routine preventative maintenance program, (c) a rehabilitation and replacement plan, (d) an operations and maintenance training program, and (e) a parts inventory program including identification of critical replacement parts.
Sufficiency: Complies
Findings: The Collection System Map is kept up-to-date electronically through a GIS program (GeoVault) managed by the Engineering division. The map is available on the City’s intranet. Collections crews have access to the electronic map room via a laptop in the field, and through desktop computers in the office.
As outlined in the COB SSMP the routine preventative maintenance program consists of quarterly hot-spot cleaning, and CCTVing/cleaning of the balance of the collection system on a 4-year basis. The City utilizes Maintenance Connection, an enterprise asset management software package to track all the O&M activities of the collection system, including customer complaints and investigation results..
Formal pipeline condition assessments are not currently conducted. Manholes, pipelines, and lift stations are informally assessed during routine cleaning/CCTVing activities. If system deficiencies are noted, rehabilitation and replacement are accomplished through capital improvement projects. The City has an annual asset replacement fund to cover any urgent major pipeline repairs. In addition, periodic CIPs are done on a case-by-case basis as needs are identified. The latest examples of these are the Park Way Rehab project and the Citywide Wastewater Rehab project completed in fiscal year 2016/17.
2025 SSMP

These projects replaced sewer mainlines and laterals and installed new manholes in various locations.
The City maintains a sufficient spare parts inventory of critical equipment. This list can be found in Appendix B of the SSMP.
The City budgets for employee training each year. Collections staff occasionally participates in industry-wide training events .
Reference: COB SSMP, Appendix E
Recommendation: None.
5. Audit of Design and Performance Provisions – State Order D.13.v
Review the SSMP to determine if it complies with the State Order by having design and construction standards and specifications for installation of new facilities, including coverage for testing of new facilities prior to acceptance.
Sufficiency: Complies
Findings: The City has adopted Standard Plans and Specifications for, among other things, construction of sewers and sewer appurtenances. A link to the applicable Standard Specifications (Section 71 and 75) is included in the SSMP. These specifications address testing necessary for acceptance.
Reference: COB SSMP, Element 5
City of Brentwood Standard Plans and Specifications
Recommendation: None
6. Audit of Overflow Emergency Response Plan – State Order D.13.vi
Review the SSMP to determine if it complies with the State Order by having an overflow emergency response plan that includes (a) proper notification procedures, (b) a program that assures proper response to all overflows (c) procedures that ensure prompt notification of regulatory agencies and other affected entities, (d) procedures to ensure that appropriate personnel are aware of the plan and appropriately trained, (e) procedures to address traffic control and crowd control, and, (f) implementation of steps to prevent SSOs from reaching waters of the United States.
Sufficiency: Complies
Findings: The City has a stand-alone Overflow Emergency Response Plan (OERP) that is incorporated into the SSMP. This plan effectively addresses notification procedures, assures proper response to overflows, contains procedures to ensure the proper regulatory notifications are made, and has provisions to address traffic control associated with SSOs.

Review the SSMP to determine if it complies with the State Order by having a FOG Control plan with (a) a public education outreach element, (b) a plan for the disposal of FOG, (c) ordinances, rules and regulations to prevent FOG, (d) requirements to install FOG traps together with standard drawings for traps, owner maintenance, record keeping, and reporting requirements, (e) FOG inspection and enforcement authority and staffing, (f) FOG mapping and cleaning schedule, and (g) source control measures.
Sufficiency: Complies
Findings: The City’s FOG program accomplishes the above requirements. The Municipal Code establishes the enforcement authority for FOG inspections, and in 2019 the City hired an environmental compliance inspector whose duties include FOG inspection/prevention/enforcement, and implementing the FOG control plan.
Reference: COB SSMP, Element 7
City of Brentwood Municipal Code, Section 13.
Recommendation: None.
8. Audit of System Evaluation and Capacity Assurance Plan – State Order D.13.viii
Review the SSMP to determine if it complies with the State Order by having a Capital Improvement Plan (CIP) that considers (a) Evaluation of those portions of the Collection System that experience SSO’s due to hydraulic deficiency, (b) Design Criteria commensurate with the Collection System, (c) Capacity Enhancement Measures and steps to address short term and long term CIP goals and an implementation schedule, and (d) Schedule for completion of items identified in (a) – (c).
Sufficiency: Complies
Findings: The City has a Wastewater Collection System Master Plan that addresses the requirements identified in State Order D.13.viii. The City initially prepared the Wastewater Collection System Master Plan in 2001 following adoption of the “City of Brentwood General Plan 2021”. Due to an extremely accelerated growth rate in the years immediately following 2001, the City updated the Wastewater Collection System Master Plan in 2006. This Plan was updated again in 2010 and 2017. The 2017 update includes a capacity assessment based on hydraulic modeling of the collection system with future design flows at ultimate “build-out” development of the City. This modeling identified three projects that will ultimately require some sections of the sewer main piping to be replaced with larger diameter piping, or have parallel piping installed.
The City has not experienced any sanitary sewer overflows caused by hydraulic deficiencies in the existing wastewater collection system. As the City grows, the
2025 SSMP
Appendix E
E-2
hydraulic capacity of the system continues to be monitored and the previously identified sections requiring replacement or parallel piping will be implemented as CIPs.
The City has comprehensive design criteria and standards relating to collection system design and construction. These criteria may be found in the City of Brentwood Standard Plans and Specifications.

City of Brentwood Wastewater Collection System Master Plan Update, 2017 Recommendations: None.
9. Audit of the Monitoring, Measurement, and Program
Modifications – State Order D.13.ix
Review the SSMP to determine if it complies with the State Order by (a) maintaining relevant information that can be used to establish and prioritize appropriate SSMP activities, (b) measuring the effectiveness of each element of the SSMP, (c) assessing the success of the preventative maintenance program, (d) updating program elements, based on monitoring or performance evaluations, and (e) identifying and illustrating SSO trends, including frequency, location and volume.
Sufficiency: Complies
Findings: The City began collecting data on SSOs upon the implementation of the State Order.
This data is summarized in the figures and tables in the Summary of SSO Events and Data section on pages 3-7 of this document. This data continues to support the notion that the City’s SSMP is working effectively to properly manage the collection system. SSO trends based on frequency, location, and volume are readily available, as are records of pipeline cleaning.

10. Audit of SSMP Program – State Order D.13.x
Perform an internal audit of the SSMP to determine if it complies with the State Order by evaluating the effectiveness of the SSMP and the City’s compliance with the SSMP requirements including identification of any deficiencies in the SSMP and steps to correct them.
Sufficiency: Complies
Findings: The City has embarked on this audit of its SSMP within the three-year requirement specified in the State Order. The previous audit was performed in March of 2021.

11. Audit of Communication Program – State Order D.13.xi Review the activities of staff to determine if they have complied with the State Order by (a) communicating the performance of the SSMP with the public, and (b) providing the public the opportunity to provide input.
Sufficiency: Complies
Findings: Public input was solicited during the development of the SSMP in 2006 and 2007. Since the adoption of the SSMP, there has been little public input to the program.
With the completion of each audit, City staff makes the audit available to the general public by posting it, along with a copy of the SSMP, on the City website. SSO data is also publicly available on the CIWQS website.

CITY COUNCIL AGENDA ITEM NO. F.7
07/22/2025
SUBJECT: Approve and Authorize the City Manager to execute a Side Letter between the City of Brentwood and the Brentwood Employees’ Association Miscellaneous Office Division and approve the revised 2024/25 and 2025/26 Pay Schedules
DEPARTMENT: Human Resources
STAFF: Teresa Fairbanks, Acting Director of Human Resources
TITLE/RECOMMENDATION
Adopt a Resolution Approving and Authorizing the City Manager to: 1) Execute a Side Letter between the City of Brentwood and the Brentwood Employees’ Association Miscellaneous Office Division to revise Appendix A, Pay Schedule, of the Memorandum of Understanding (MOU); and 2) Revise the 2024/25 and 2025/26 Pay Schedules in accordance with 2 CCR § 570.5 and authorize the Director of Human Resources/Risk Manager, in consultation with the City Attorney, to make ministerial revisions to them.
FISCAL IMPACT
There is no fiscal impact associated with the proposed action. When the MOU was approved by the City Council on June 10, 2025, the pay and classification inadvertently omitted from the MOU and pay schedule was used in the calculation of the fiscal impact.
BACKGROUND
The City remains committed to fairness and equity for its employees while maintaining competitive salaries and benefits. In alignment with these goals, the City also continues to pursue a fiscally responsible path that supports long-term sustainability for both its workforce and the Brentwood community, including maintaining healthy reserves and avoiding increases to unfunded obligations.
On June 10, 2025, the City Council approved a successor Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) between the City of Brentwood and the Brentwood Employees’ Association Miscellaneous Office Division (BEAMOD) for the term of July 1, 2024,
CITY COUNCIL AGENDA ITEM NO. F.7
07/22/2025
through June 30, 2027. Per the requirements of the Meyers-Milias-Brown Act (California Government Code Sections 3500–3511), any modifications to the MOU must be mutually agreed upon by both parties.
Staff discovered that the closed classification of Senior Police Records Clerk was inadvertently omitted from Council approved documents specifically, MOU Appendix A, as well as the citywide 2024/2025 and 2025/26 Pay Schedules. City representatives contacted BEAMOD representatives to share the inadvertent error.
Both parties had collaborative discussions and reached consensus to revise Appendix A of the BEAMOD MOU to include the salary range for the closed classification of Senior Police Records Clerk.
Staff recommends that the City Council approve the attached Side Letter and Pay Schedules to ensure all governing documents accurately reflect all approved salary ranges and classifications. The side letter was developed jointly by representatives from the City and BEAMOD, and has been reviewed by the City Attorney, as well as outside legal counsel specializing in employment law.

SUBJECT: Approve and Authorize the City Manager to executive a Side Letter between the City of Brentwood and the Brentwood
Employees’ Association Public Works Division
DEPARTMENT: Human Resources
STAFF: Teresa Fairbanks, Acting Director of Human Resources
TITLE/RECOMMENDATION
Adopt a Resolution Approving and Authorizing the City Manager to execute a Side Letter between the City of Brentwood and the Brentwood Employees’ Association Public Works Division correcting the standby pay amounts in the Memorandum of Understanding (MOU).
FISCAL IMPACT
There is no fiscal impact associated with the proposed action. The correct standby pay was used in the calculation of the fiscal impact when the MOU was approved by the City Council.
BACKGROUND
The City remains committed to fairness and equity for its employees while maintaining competitive salaries and benefits. In alignment with these goals, the City also continues to pursue a fiscally responsible path that supports long-term sustainability for both its workforce and the Brentwood community, including maintaining healthy reserves and avoiding increases to unfunded obligations.
On April 22, 2025, the City Council approved a successor MOU between the City of Brentwood and the Brentwood Employees’ Association Public Works Division (BEAPWD) for the term of July 1, 2024, through June 30, 2027. Per the requirements of the Meyers-Milias-Brown Act (California Government Code Sections 3500–3511), any modifications to the MOU must be mutually agreed upon by both parties.
Staff discovered that the standby pay amounts listed in Section 7.3 – Standby Pay of the successor MOU contained incorrect figures. City representatives contacted
CITY COUNCIL AGENDA ITEM NO. F.8

BEAPWD representatives to share the inadvertent error. Both parties had collaborative discussions and reached consensus to revise Section 7.3 – Standby Pay of the BEAPWD MOU with the following correct standby pay amounts:
$469.55 (Fiscal Year 2023-24)
$488.34 (Fiscal Year 2024-25)
$502.99 (Fiscal Year 2025-26)
$518.08 (Fiscal Year 2026-27)
Staff recommends that the City Council approve the attached side letter to formally modify the MOU, ensuring the governing document accurately reflects the correct standby pay amounts.
The side letter was developed jointly by representatives from the City and BEAPWD, and has been reviewed by the City Attorney, as well as outside legal counsel specializing in employment law.

CITY COUNCIL AGENDA ITEM NO. F.9
07/22/2025
SUBJECT: Informational report on Proposition 4 Grants
DEPARTMENT: Parks and Recreation
STAFF: E. Harith Aleem, Jr., Director of Parks and Recreation Tammy Homan, Management Analyst
TITLE/RECOMMENDATION
Accept informational report from staff on Proposition 4 grant opportunities.
FISCAL IMPACT
There is no direct fiscal impact associated with acceptance of this informational report.
BACKGROUND
The City Council was scheduled to consider this item at its June 24, 2025 meeting, which was cancelled for lack of a quorum. At that time, staff planned on providing a brief presentation. Due to the large volume of items on tonight’s agenda, the information is now being provided in this staff report on Consent, but staff is available to answer any questions.
On February 20, 2025, Vice Mayor Pierson submitted an email requesting an update on Proposition 4 grant opportunities. On March 11, 2025, Vice Mayor Pierson made a motion that “staff spend time and money reviewing Proposition 4 funds available and any projects, whether they’re Council generated, staff generated, or even something that you guys have thought about and never brought forward that we could consider applying for grant dollars to move those projects forward.” Proposition 4 is the Safe Drinking Water, Wildfire Prevention, Drought Preparedness, and Clean Air Bond Act of 2024 and was approved by California voters in November 2024.
The passage of Proposition 4 authorizes up to $10 billion in bonds to help the state become more climate resilient. The investments in state parks will include $175 million to address deferred maintenance, $50 million in sea level rise adaptation
