2. ALAMEDA CTC and the PROJECT SPONSOR may jointly authorize an “Administrative Amendment” for any minor schedule revisions, deliverables, or budget revisions that do not increase the total ALAMEDA CTC ADMINISTERED FUNDS obligated by this AGREEMENT. Any change in the PROJECT scope of work must be approved by ALAMEDA CTC prior to implementation of the change by the PROJECT SPONSOR. Administrative amendment requests sent to ALAMEDA CTC must include a revised Appendix A:

Project Control Information which reflects the requested changes by the PROJECT SPONSOR.

3.

11. PROJECT costs incurred by PROJECT SPONSOR are only eligible for reimbursement on a prorated basis unless specifically provided for in Appendix A: Project Control Information, and PROJECT SPONSOR is expected to concurrently seek reimbursement from the other sources shown in Project A: Project Control Information. Pro-rated basis, as used herein, equals the amount of ALAMEDA CTC ADMINISTERED FUNDS obligated by this AGREEMENT to a phase, divided by the total funding for the phase, as shown in Appendix A: Project Control Information.

If PROJECT SPONSOR fails to submit the required deliverables or otherwise fails to meet the reporting and invoicing requirements of this AGREEMENT, ALAMEDA CTC may deobligate funds from the PROJECT and this AGREEMENT. Not less than thirty (30) days prior to the effective date of any such action, ALAMEDA CTC will endeavor to notify PROJECT SPONSOR in writing that the required deliverables, invoicing and reporting is overdue.

If any property is acquired for the PROJECT using ALAMEDA CTC ADMINISTERED FUNDS to finance some or all of the acquisition, and the PROJECT is cancelled or otherwise does not begin construction within five (5) years after the effective date of AGREEMENT (as such deadline may be extended by agreement between the parties hereto), then PROJECT SPONSOR shall, within one (1) year after such cancellation decision or the expiration of such five (5) year period, reimburse ALAMEDA CTC for the greater of the following:

ALAMEDA CTC Share of the property’s Fair Market Value or the full amount of ALAMEDA CTC ADMINISTERED FUNDS used to acquire the property, as escalated by the increase in the CPI during the most recent period for which CPI data is available which is equal in length to the period between the date ALAMEDA CTC ADMINISTERED FUNDS were paid to PROJECT SPONSOR and the date reimbursement is made to ALAMEDA CTC. b. If any property is acquired for the PROJECT using ALAMEDA CTC ADMINISTERED FUNDS to finance some or all of the acquisition and only a portion of the acquired property is required for the PROJECT, and if the PROJECT begins construction within five (5) years after the effective date of this AGREEMENT (as such deadline may be extended by agreement between the parties hereto), then PROJECT SPONSOR shall, within one (1) year after PROJECT completion, reimburse ALAMEDA CTC for ALAMEDA CTC Share of the Fair Market Value of any property determined to be “excess property”. 184

e. If PROJECT is suspended, PROJECT SPONSOR shall pay all property management costs. f. Property that is required for the PROJECT and acquired wholly or in part with ALAMEDA CTC ADMINISTERED FUNDS shall be available for PROJECT construction within ten (10) years of ALAMEDA CTC reimbursement to the PROJECT SPONSOR.

PROJECT SPONSOR shall submit documentation of the final order of condemnation settlement within ninety (90) days after the date of the court recording of the final order of condemnation. If the amount of ALAMEDA CTC reimbursement to the PROJECT SPONSOR is higher than ALAMEDA CTC Share of the amount of settlement in the final order of condemnation, the PROJECT SPONSOR shall pay ALAMEDA CTC the difference between the amount reimbursed and ALAMEDA CTC Share of the amount settled plus ALAMEDA CTC Share of the interest accrued to the deposit account within one (1) year of the final order of condemnation.

17. PROJECT SPONSOR shall not initiate condemnation of any property until full funding for the construction of the PROJECT has been secured.

STAFF REPORT

CITY COUNCIL

Page 1 of 3 ends

Agenda Item 5.6
DATE: July 16, 2024
TO: Honorable Mayor and City Councilmembers
FROM: Linda Smith, City Manager
SUBJECT: 2024 Utility Box Art Selection
Prepared by: Shelby Perry, Recreation Coordinator
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY:

The City Council will consider a recommendation from the Heritage and Cultural Arts Commission for artwork to be painted on 10 utility boxes in summer 2024.

STAFF RECOMMENDATION:

Approve the Heritage and Cultural Arts Commission’s recommendations for the 2024 Utility Box Art Program.

FINANCIAL IMPACT:

The cost of 10 utility boxes, including artist payments and miscellaneous supplies, is estimated at $10,350. This project is funded by the Public Art Fund and is included in the adopted Fiscal Year 2024-25 Budget.

DESCRIPTION:

The 2024 Utility Box Art program will include painting 10 utility boxes throughout Dublin. The design theme for this project is “Out of this World.” Artists were encouraged to be as creative as possible when developing images and designs that captured this theme.

In addition, three of the utility boxes scheduled to be painted are near Parks Reserve Forces Training Area (Camp Parks). Artists were encouraged to submit ideas and proposals that honor Camp Parks past, present, and future.

The City sought proposals that incorporated the themes with unique and creative ideas. As with all Public Art projects, artwork themes should also align with the City’s Values, which are a part of the adopted Mission and Vision Statements, including safety, inclusivity, diversity, equality, and history. Artwork must also be suitable for all ages.

Staff issued a Call for Artists on February 23, 2024 (Attachment 2), publicizing the opportunity through normal City channels (website, social media, etc.), as well as via email to a list of interested artists, past Dublin utility box artists, and nearby cities with successful utility box art programs. In total, 47 design proposals were received from 32 individual artists by the April 16, 2024, deadline. Twenty professional artists submitted 34 design proposals, and 12 student artists submitted 13 design proposals.

On June 13, 2024, the Heritage and Cultural Arts Commission reviewed the artists’ proposals and deliberated before recommending 10 artist proposals for City Council consideration and approval.

The recommended artists’ resumes, statements, and design proposals are included with this Staff Report (Attachment 1). Below is a table illustrating the utility box locations with the recommended artist and title of the artist’s proposal.

A tribute to our pride in America and all it signifies to each of us. This design is reminiscent of the Veterans Memorial Building on Las Positas College campus that I designed and painted in 2016.

Camp Parks: Fleet City 1941 - 1946
With the onset of World War II, the United States Navy began building the area known as Shoemaker in California. This location became their base for Basic Training and distribution of the SeaBees, the construction arm of the Navy, as well as Shoemaker Hospital, and the barracks for personnel and POWs. As stated in Steve Minniear’s book, Dublin and the Tri-Valley: The World War II Years:
“At one point during the war, the three major facilities in what is now Dublin were called “Fleet City.” Camp parks and Shoemaker Naval Hospital were designed to support the Seabees.” During these five short years, the Navy constructed 110 wood barracks, 146 buildings, 697 Quonset hut barracks, 348 Quonset huts, and 61 steel Buildings. Camp Parks trained over 116,000 men. During its height, 20,000 men were stationed at the base.

Fleet City focuses on the buildings, and the atmosphere. I have left space below each image to add further relevant history during this time.

The Map is the most important panel. I will be detailing the location of the important, to service Men and Women, buildings, as well as explaining their location relation to today’s streets and landmarks. Each panel depicting a building will be painted in Edward Hopper Style with directed sunlight to depict the time of day, morning. I include a sample of one of my paintings to illustrate the style.

I have left space at the bottom of each of these panels for further information to better educate the public on our local history. I will be working with Steve Minniear and having him review all text for accuracy before inking it on the panel.

Parks Air Force Base: 1951 to 1959
With the onset of the Korean War, the United States Air Force took control of what was left of Camp Parks. They renamed it by dropping the “Camp” and turned it into a Basic Training Center. Eventually they moved the basic training to other air force bases. However, they issued yearbooks for personnel during this time. The photos these are based on are from the actual yearbook and I include an aircraft lying over in each panel relevant to the war and the year. I have left space at the bottom of each of these panels for further information to better educate the public on our local history. I will be working with Steve Minniear and having him review all text for accuracy before inking it on the panel.

The style of painting on this panel will be atmospheric, featuring billowing clouds, or mist, on every panel. The personnel will have some detail, but soft edges and warm light. I include a U2 Stealth plane on the top for intrigue.

Life Doesn't Stink
Titles and Artist Statements
By: Lisa Long
This piece was inspired as I volunteered with a group of middle schoolers. The most common phrases I heard were things like "life stinks" or "life is so unfair". This feels like a very common message in the world. But I believe there is real power is the ·out of this world" message that Life Doesn't Stink! We can move past disappointments and hard things when we look for the good and find things to be grateful for.

Look Up
As I've studied the effects of depression and anxiety on our parents and teens, I've noticed that it tends to make us look down, both literally and metaphorically. We cast our eyes down to the ground and we also look down on ourselves and our potential. My message is to Look Up! Look forward, move past, feel hopeful and believe in possibility. I hope that youth and adults alike can embrace this out of this world message.

Climbing Mountains Together
I have always been inspired by mountains and their beauty and majesty. But, it was only after I summited my first mountain that I realized how important it is to climb mountain� wit� p �
ople
who push and strengthen you. This is true for the metaphorical mountains we chmb in hfe-we should climb together, lift each other, recognize and help each other through our hardest moments. This is how we can stand on top of the world and see the true beauty from the summit.

Utility Box Design - “Dublin Cosmic Dreamscape” by Haley Haslim I drew inspiration from surrealist art and a lot of space photography for this design.

Following along with the theme of “Out of This World”, I aimed to create a cosmic/space inspired concept blended with a few attributes of Dublin I find personally significant from my time growing up in the city: tree-lined hills, cows, bikers, students, and a warm sense of community.

Thank you for considering me,
Haley Haslim

Title & Artist Statement:

Provide a brief statement and title (100 words or less) about your proposed artwork.

This could include your source of inspiration, the significance of the image(s) or a comment on the style or technique you have proposed. Each proposed design must have its own artist statement.

Cosmic Corgi is a painting by Angela Wang. In alignment with this year’s theme, Angela was inspired by her corgi’s “out of this world” enthusiasm for meeting community members. The painting showcases her corgi’s adventurous spirit within the vast cosmos, representing the idea of braving the unknown with curiosity and childlike wonder. Through a bold, two-dimensional look, the painting embodies the pop art/comic art style, with its vibrant colors contributing to the overall whimsical, stylized feel of the painting.

Andrew Lott
Artist Statement: Portal to Day and Night
Hello, my name is Andrew Lott, an East Bay born and raised artist and illustrator. Running with this year's theme, "Out of This World", I wanted to create an interactive piece that viewers could contemplate. The piece I created depicts a slightly trippy, yet dreamlike portal that transports you from day to night-or night to day depending on which side of the box you are standing.

While creating the concept I was thinking about two of my favorite artists, M.C. Escher and Salvador Dali, who liked to often challenge their viewers' perceptions.

With this piece, I wanted to take a fun and whimsical approach with the subject matter through fun characters and bright colors. I was inspired by the cartoons "Steven Universe" and "Bee and Puppycat" as well as magical girl anime to bring a cute and unique aesthetic to the theme of "Out of This World."

Artist: Iris Shen
Iris is a seventeen-year-old student artist and is currently a sophomore at Dublin High School.

She has been taking weekly art lessons at Michelle Meng’s Art Studio for almost nine years. She works in many mediums of art but mostly enjoys sketching and painting.

In addition to visual arts, Iris has also been trained in performing arts, such as dance and music.

Because of this, her art usually takes a more whimsical approach when it comes to landscapes.

She has lived all of her life in a suburban landscape but often takes outdoor hikes with her mother, which she finds to be inspiring for her art.

Iris has competed in the Junior Duck Stamp Contest, the Dublin Arts Collective logo contest, and the Alameda County Fair, in which she has won the title of Best in Class, Best in Show, and Judge’s Favorite. She won first place at the Dublin San Ramon Women’s Club Student Art Festival, and has been commissioned by local businesses like Country Waffles. Iris views art as a very relaxing hobby and often finds herself drawing in her free time.

Artist Statement/Summary
My piece is titled “Observers”, referring either to the sharks and rays portrayed in the painting or to the actual observer of the piece.

When I was young, I often thought the ocean was an entirely different world from our own—that’s what I wanted to bring to life in my design. But I also wanted to make it something even more unbelievable, which is why I chose to transition from a more traditional seascape to a sky teeming with sea life. By showing these creatures in untraditional environments, I hoped to encourage others to branch out from their comfort zones.

CALL FOR ARTISTS
Utility Box Art Project
Multiple Themes
CALL ISSUE DATE: February 23, 2024
CALL DEADLINE: April 16, 2024, 12:00 a.m.(midnight)
The City of Dublin invites qualified professional artists and student artists working under the supervision of a professional artist or art teacher to submit designs for painted utility boxes.

Utility Box Art is popular throughout the Bay Area as a cost-effective way to bring public art to City streets, define neighborhoods and deter graffiti. All the boxes are traffic signal cabinets owned by the City of Dublin. Boxes will be awarded to up to ten different artists based on design.

The City will pay a stipend of $1,000 to each artist or, if the artist is a student or student team, to the supervising professional artist or art teacher. The stipend is intended to cover the cost of the artist design fee as well as the materials that will be necessary to paint the utility box.

Artists are responsible for preparing, painting, and sealing the utility boxes. The City will provide the materials to clean, primer, and seal the utility box, while artists are required to provide all necessary painting materials.

Artwork created under this program is considered temporary artwork and the property of the City of Dublin. As such, the City retains the right and sole discretion to remove, modify or replace the artwork. Situations in which the City may exercise this right include if the image or utility box is damaged, if the artist fails to complete the painting as shown on the approved design rendering or if the artist fails to complete the painting in a timely fashion.

The artist’s name, artwork title, and photo of the artwork will be featured on the City of Dublin website and other promotional materials.

The Contractor’s obligation to defend and indemnify shall not be excused because of the Contractor’s inability to evaluate Liability or because the Contractor evaluates Liability and determines that the Contractor is not liable to the claimant.

EXHIBIT A

SCOPE OF WORK FOR MUNICIPAL REGIONAL STORMWATER NPDES PERMIT INSPECTIONS

AND ILLICIT DISCHARGE RESPONSE
The specific scopes of work under this RFP include: 1) Updating 5-year and annual work plans and conducting inspections to meet MRP Provision C.3 Operations and Maintenance Verification requirements; 2) Updating 5-year and annual works plans and conducting inspections to meet MRP Provision C.4 business inspection requirements; 3) Conducting inspections and collecting maintenance records to meet MRP Provision C.10 Trash Load Reduction Requirements, and 4) Providing illicit discharge and spill response services. Detailed descriptions of each scope of work are provided below. Please note that there are overlaps at some parcels/projects for some or all of these inspections (e.g., a parcel may require a C.4 general business inspection and also a C.3 O&M inspection and/or a C.10 PLDA inspection). Contractors are encouraged to explain how they would approach these situations regarding annual work plans and billing.
1) Municipal Regional Stormwater NPDES Permit (MRP) Provision C.3 Operations and Maintenance Verification Inspections
MRP Provision C.3 mandates that permittees conduct an operations and maintenance (O&M) verification program to ensure stormwater treatment and hydromodification management measures (collectively, “stormwater management measures”) remain in effective operating condition in perpetuity. Permittees must conduct O&M verification inspections according to the following formula:
 Inspection of an average of 20%, but no less than 15% of total number (at the end of the preceding fiscal year) of Regulated Projects per year, such that all Regulated Projects are inspected at least once every five years.

Currently, the City has over 100 Regulated Project sites with installed stormwater management measures, including both low impact development measures and proprietary treatment measures. During the first contract year, the City anticipates the Contractor will conduct inspections of approximately 30 Regulated Projects. Of those inspections, approximately 50% will require a second inspection and 10-15% will require a third inspection. As the number of Regulated Projects with installed stormwater management measures increases, the number of required annual inspections will increase.

A Regulated Project may have only one stormwater management measure, or it may have multiple stormwater management measures. The fee paid to the Contractor to conduct C.3 O&M inspections will be based on a reasonable per hour inspection fee and the hourly fee will be applied to a reasonable number of hours per site, depending on how many stormwater management measures are on-site. Contractor shall provide the proposed fee schedule in the proposal, indicating how that fee schedule was determined.

For
Municipal Regional Stormwater NPDES Permit Inspections and Illicit Discharge Response Services Overview
The City of Dublin (City) is issuing this RFP to hire a Contractor(s) to assist meeting permit mandates under the Municipal Regional Stormwater NPDES Permit Order No. R2-2022-0018 (MRP). Specifically, the City desires to select a Contractor(s) to conduct inspections to meet requirements of MRP Provisions C.3, C.4, and C.10 and to assist with illicit discharge and spill response under Provision C.5 of the MRP. The Contractor(s) must be well informed about the respective MRP Provisions for which the entity is hired to assist the City. As part of the inspection process, the Contractor(s) will also verify compliance with product bans and related legislation (e.g., AB 1276). The City may elect to hire one Contractor for all services in this RFP or may select separate Contractors for specific tasks in this RFP. The scope of work is outlined below.

Project Description:

The specific scopes of work under this RFP include: 1) Updating 5-year and annual work plans and conducting inspections to meet MRP Provision C.3 Operations and Maintenance Verification requirements; 2) Updating 5- year and annual works plans and conducting inspections to meet MRP Provision C.4 business inspection requirements; 3) Conducting inspections and collecting maintenance records to meet MRP Provision C.10 Trash Load Reduction Requirements, and 4) Providing illicit discharge and spill response services. Detailed descriptions of each scope of work are provided below. Please note that there are overlaps at some parcels/projects for some or all of these inspections (e.g., a parcel may require a C.4 general business inspection and also a C.3 O&M inspection and/or a C.10 PLDA inspection). Contractors are encouraged to explain how they would approach these situations regarding annual work plans and billing.

Considerations:
1) Municipal Regional Stormwater NPDES Permit (MRP) Provision C.3 Operations and Maintenance Verification Inspections
MRP Provision C.3 mandates that permittees conduct an operations and maintenance (O&M) verification program to ensure stormwater treatment and hydromodification management measures (collectively, “stormwater management measures”) remain in effective operating condition in perpetuity. Permittees must conduct O&M verification inspections according to the following formula:
324
• Inspection of an average of 20%, but no less than 15% of total number (at the end of the preceding fiscal year) of Regulated Projects per year, such that all Regulated Projects are inspected at least once every five years.

Currently, the City has over 100 Regulated Project sites with installed stormwater management measures, including both low impact development measures and proprietary treatment measures. During the first contract year, the City anticipates the Contractor will conduct inspections of approximately 30 Regulated Projects. Of those inspections, approximately 50% will require a second inspection and 10-15% will require a third inspection. As the number of Regulated Projects with installed stormwater management measures increases, the number of required annual inspections will increase.

A Regulated Project may have only one stormwater management measure, or it may have multiple stormwater management measures. The fee paid to the Contractor to conduct C.3 O&M inspections will be based on a reasonable per hour inspection fee and the hourly fee will be applied to a reasonable number of hours per site, depending on how many stormwater management measures are on-site. Contractor shall provide the proposed fee schedule in the proposal, indicating how that fee schedule was determined.

Inspection Plans
The Contractor will be responsible for updating the 5-year inspection plan in the first quarter of the contract term. The 5-year inspection plan will be reviewed and approved by the Environmental & Sustainability Division in the Public Works Department. The Contractor will develop the plan using the information provided in the Clean Water Program ArcGIS On-Line database, or equivalent database (CWP database) and shall be designed to meet the requirements of the MRP. In addition, the Contractor shall be responsible for providing to the City for review and approval an annual inspection plan, which shall be based on the 5-year inspection plan.

Development of the annual inspection plan shall include identifying current site contacts and reviewing the CWP database to verify that project locations in the 5-year plan are up to date. The annual inspection plan shall be provided to the Environmental & Sustainability Division by October 1 each year.

Annual Operation and Maintenance Reports
Using the updated contact list in the 5-year inspection plan, the Contractor shall be responsible for sending annual letters to the entire inventory of Regulated Project sites requesting that annual operations and maintenance reports are submitted, per the Stormwater Management Maintenance Agreement. The Contractor shall assist with tracking which entities have submitted the reports and conducting follow-up with the entities that do not respond to initial requests for the report.

Inspections
As part of conducting inspections, Contractor shall set up appointments with site location contacts at least a few days ahead of the inspection date. The Contractor shall use the Alameda Countywide Clean Water Program (CWP) Arc GIS On-line (AGOL) field application to conduct the inspections. The Contractor shall be familiar with and follow the City’s Enforcement Response Plan when issuing enforcement actions to facilities with deficiencies in any stormwater management measure. The key tasks under this scope of services for conducting C.3 Operations and Maintenance Verification Inspections shall include, but not be limited to, the following:
325

1.a. First Inspections
The following generally describes the first inspection process that the Contractor shall follow. The inspection process may be modified from time-to-time, but will generally include:

1. Using City letterhead and envelopes, the Contractor will send a letter to site locations scheduled for inspection. The site location list shall be the list developed and updated by the Contractor and approved by the City as part of the annual inspection plan. Once the letter has been sent, the Contractor shall set up appointments with location representative(s) at least a few days ahead of the inspection date and time. The Contractor shall review site drawings and previous inspection results to determine compliance history prior to going to the site.

2. Visit the site and meet with the location representative. Explain the purpose for the inspection and ask questions to verify that stormwater management measures are operating and being maintained adequately.

3. Ask location representative for maintenance records for all stormwater management measures, particularly underground or proprietary management measures.

4. Fill out the inspection report in the Clean Water Program AGOL database and obtain the location representative’s signature on the form. The Contractor shall also:
o Take pictures of potential deficiencies and/or best management practices to include in the AGOL app.
o Require location representative to install storm drain markers, if needed. o Determine the appropriate enforcement response timeline, following the City’s Enforcement Response Plan, provided in Attachment A and indicate the timeline in the inspection report.

5. Distribute appropriate BMP handouts provided by the City to location representative.

6. When a location representative is NOT available for inspection, Contractor shall contact the City to determine the action the City would like to take.

7. If it is discovered that the site owner/operator is different than the owner/operator as listed in the annual inspection plan, notify the City of the change. If the new site owner/operator is occupying the location, the Contractor shall provide educational materials, as needed and complete the inspection.

8. All first inspections shall be completed no later than May 15th of each year.

9. For site locations that have stormwater management measures with potential deficiencies, Contractor shall let the location representative know about the deficiency at the end of the first inspection.

Contractor will show the location representative the deficiencies and/or concerns and provide a timeline to cure the deficiency to the location representative. Contractor shall follow the City’s Enforcement Response Plan when determining the compliance schedule.

Contractor shall take pictures of any potential problem areas, document number of pictures taken for a site, and note that in the AGOL app. A copy of the inspection report shall be emailed to the location representative via the AGOL app within 3 business days of the inspection.

The inspector shall ask for maintenance records for on-site trash capture devices, as applicable. c. Require location representative to install storm drain markers, if needed. d. Determine the appropriate enforcement response timeline, following the City’s Enforcement Response Plan, provided in Attachment A, and indicate the timeline in the inspection report. e. Distribute the appropriate BMP handouts provided by the City to business owners/managers.

4. If an active discharge is observed during the inspection, the Contractor shall take the necessary steps to stop the discharge and immediately contact the City.

5. When a business representative is NOT available for inspection, Contractor shall contact the City to determine the action the City would like to take.

6. If it is discovered that a business is no longer in operation, Contractor shall complete an inspection report indicating that the site is out of business. Note if a new business has moved into the facility and provide the information to the City. Conduct an inspection, as necessary.

7. All first inspections shall be completed no later than May 15th of each year. 328

8. For businesses that have potential or actual stormwater violations, Contractor will let the business representative know at the end of the first inspection that the business has violation(s) that must be addressed. Contractor will show the business representative all potential or actual violations and/or concerns and provide a timeline to the business representative. Contractor will follow the City’s Enforcement Response Plan when determining compliance schedule.

Contractor shall take pictures of any actual or potential problem areas, document number of pictures taken for a site and note that in the CWP AGOL platform. If necessary and as outlined in the City’s Enforcement Response Plan, the Contractor shall be responsible for writing warning letters, Notice of Violations, or other letters to the business representative outlining violations or potential violations, along with appropriate guidance to address the violations. Contractor will notify the City by the 3rd business day of the week following inspection of all businesses that require a re-inspection.

2.b. Reinspection of Businesses
The following generally describes the re-inspection process that the Contractor shall follow:

2. The Contractor will be expected to perform the reinspection, unless notified otherwise by the City. The Contractor shall perform the re-inspections within the appropriate timeframe as indicated in the City of Dublin’s Enforcement Response Plan.

3. If after reinspection, deficiencies are still noted, the Contractor shall notify City staff immediately and work with City staff to determine what action needs to be taken. 3) Municipal Regional Stormwater NPDES Permit (MRP) Provision C.10 Trash Load Reduction Inspections
MRP Provision C.10 requires permittees to have achieved 100% trash load reduction via installation of full trash capture devices or other actions equivalent to full trash capture by June 30, 2025. The Contractor(s) will assist the City with this MRP provision by conducting inspections to verify that private full trash capture devices are being maintained and/or to conduct on-land visual trash assessments to verify that equivalent actions equal to full trash capture are being implemented.

3.a. Locations with installed full trash capture devices.

The MRP allows third-party maintenance reports in lieu of conducting in-person inspections for vault-based systems. The Contractor shall send annual letters to all locations with installed full trash capture devices requesting that annual operations and maintenance reports are submitted, per the Stormwater Management Maintenance Agreement and/or the Dublin Municipal Code. The Contractor shall assist with tracking which entities have submitted the reports and conducting follow-up with the entities that do not respond to initial requests for the report. The follow-up shall include tracking down current property owners or responsible entities when the existing known contact information is out of date.

This task will be billed on a per location basis, (i.e. lump sum). Contractor shall provide the proposed lump sum dollar amount in the proposal, indicating how that lump sum was determined. 329

3.b. Locations implementing actions equivalent to full trash capture devices The Contractor shall verify that equivalent actions are being implemented via on-site inspection. Equivalent actions include but are not limited to daily litter pick-up, making available and servicing publicly accessible waste containers, storm drain inlet cleaning, or other actions. Some locations may require on-land visual trash assessments, conducted using the protocols established in the “On-land Visual Trash Assessment Protocol for Stormwater, Protocol C – Area Based Survey” developed by EOA Inc. and Keish Environmental (Attachment B).

The inspection reports shall be completed in the CWP AGOL application. When it is determined that actions/good housekeeping practices are not being implemented such that they are equivalent to full trash capture devices, the Contractor shall conduct follow-up inspections and enforcement to gain compliance.

Contractor shall take pictures of any actual or potential problem areas, document number of pictures taken for a site, and note that in the CWP AGOL platform. If necessary and as outlined in the City’s Enforcement Response Plan, the Contractor shall be responsible for writing warning letters, Notice of Violations, or other letters to the business representative outlining violations or potential violations, along with appropriate guidance to address the violations. Contractor will notify the City by the 3rd business day of the week following inspection of all businesses that require a re-inspection.

Each inspection will be billed on a per inspection basis, (i.e. lump sum). Contractor shall provide their proposed lump sum dollar amount per inspection in their proposal, indicating how that lump sum was determined. 4) Illicit Discharge and Spill Response Assistance
The Environmental & Sustainability Division (ESD) in the Public Works Department has responsibility for illicit discharge and spill response, investigation, cleanup, follow-up, and record keeping. ESD will utilize the Contractor to assist with spill response efforts for the City. The Contractor will be the first responder, as needed, on evenings, weekends, and holidays.

The City will utilize the Contractor for assistance with spill and discharge response, as needed. The Contractor may be called upon to conduct investigations, develop action plans, assist with spill containment, assist with recordkeeping and time tracking, conduct follow-up work, or other activities as described in the City’s Spill and Discharge Response Plan. The Contractor is required to follow the Spill and Discharge Response Plan as it may be updated from time to time.

As the first responder, the Contractor shall use the city’s Urban Runoff and Incident Report Form and follow procedures as outlined in the City’s Spill and Discharge Response Plan after consulting with City staff regarding how to proceed with the response.

The Contractor will provide a qualified individual to conduct site investigations associated with any reported spills or discharges.

Attachment A
City of Dublin Enforcement Response Plan
336
1 Revised May 2023
City of Dublin
Municipal Stormwater Program
Enforcement Response Plan

1.0 Description and Purpose of Enforcement Response Plan City of Dublin (City) Municipal Code Chapters 7.74 (Stormwater Management and Discharge Control), 7.16 (Grading regulations), 7.52 (Abatement of Nuisances), 7.20 Watercourse Protection and 1.04 (General Provisions) authorizes the City to enforce municipal stormwater requirements prescribed by the Municipal Regional Stormwater NPDES1 Permit, Order No. R2- 2022-0018 (MRP) issued by the California Regional Water Quality Control Board, San Francisco Bay Region (Regional Water Board). This Enforcement Response Plan (ERP) provides guidance to City inspection staff to support actions necessary to achieve equitable, consistent, effective, and timely compliance with the City’s stormwater ordinance and other provisions of the City’s Municipal Code, as well as to comply with the following sections of the MRP:
 Operation and Maintenance (O&M) of Stormwater Treatment Systems – ERP (Provision C.3.h.ii.(7));
 Industrial and Commercial Site Controls – ERP (Provision C.4.c);  Illicit Discharge Detection and Elimination – ERP (Provision C.5.b);  Construction Site Control – ERP (Provision C.6.b); and  Private Land Drainage Area Management to Trash Full Capture Equivalent – (Provision C.10.a.ii.(b)).

The City’s ERP integrates the requirements from these different MRP provisions into one enforcement response policy to facilitate consistent enforcement responses within the City. This ERP identifies various enforcement options that are available to the City, and also provides a system of progressively escalating enforcement actions designed to expedite compliance and achieve abatement of non-stormwater discharges. The ERP ensures that enforcement actions are proportionate to the severity of the potential or actual non-stormwater discharge and includes specific timeframes to allow for corrective actions to address said discharges. The nature of a particular potential or actual non-stormwater discharge may require tailoring of the timeframes for correction and/or the use of temporary measures to promptly address an issue before a permanent solution may be implemented. As required by the MRP, this ERP also describes when it may be appropriate to refer situations to another agency, such as the Regional Water Board, for additional enforcement. A table summarizing the City’s enforcement protocol is included in Section 7.0.
1 National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System
337
2 Revised May 2023

1.1 Definitions
Active non-stormwater discharge is an actual discharge that is occurring at the moment. Note that trash/litter can be an active discharge.

Actual discharge is an observed or documented flow of unauthorized, illicit, or pollutantcontaining stormwater discharges to the MS4. An inspector may observe the discharge or there may be evidence of a prior actual discharge.

Illicit discharge means any discharge to the municipal separate storm sewer (storm drain) system (MS4) that is prohibited under local, state, or federal statutes, ordinances, codes, or regulations. This includes all non-stormwater discharges not composed entirely of stormwater, except discharges allowed pursuant to an NPDES permit (other than the NPDES permit for discharges from the MS4).

Non-stormwater discharge means any discharge that is not entirely composed of stormwater.

Potential discharge identifies conditions with the potential to result in unauthorized, illicit, or pollutant-containing stormwater discharges to the MS4. These include, but are not limited to, housekeeping issues, inadequate waste or materials management, evidence of actual discharges that are not ongoing, lack of emergency response plans, lack of BMPs, inadequate BMPs, and inappropriate BMPs.

2.0 Types of Enforcement Actions and Their Use
This ERP identifies a range of administrative and judicial (civil and criminal) enforcement options to encourage prompt correction of potential or actual non-stormwater discharges and to prevent conditions that may cause future non-stormwater discharges. The circumstances surrounding each situation will determine which enforcement action is taken, including whether the potential or actual non-stormwater discharge is an isolated incident or one that has been reoccurring, the magnitude of harm or potential harm to the environment, whether there has been a history of non-compliance, as well as other relevant circumstances. The table in Section 7 summarizes the various enforcement options that are available to the City, which City official has authority to take each level of enforcement and provides example scenarios that trigger each type of enforcement action, in order of escalation.

The following types of enforcement actions are described in Section 7.0:
• Verbal Warnings
• Written Warning
• Administrative Order – Cease and Desist
• Administrative Order – Notice to Clean
• Administrative Order – Stop Work Order
338
3 Revised May 2023
• Administrative Citation
• Civil Action
• Criminal Prosecution
• Referral to and Coordination with the Regional Water Board • Supplemental Enforcement Responses – Permit Suspension or Revocation

3.0 Time Schedule to Achieve Compliance

3.1 O&M Verification Inspections
For O&M Verification Inspections of stormwater treatment measures, MRP Provision C.3.h.ii.(7) states that corrective actions shall be implemented no longer than 30 days after a problem is identified by an inspector. Corrective actions can be temporary and more time may be allowed for permanent corrective actions. If more than 30 days is required for compliance, a rationale shall be recorded in the electronic database or equivalent tabular system.

For the City’s O&M verification inspections of private trash full capture systems corrective actions shall also be implemented within 30 days after a problem is identified by an inspector. If more than 30 days is needed for compliance, a rationale shall be recorded.

3.2 General Business and Construction-Phase Stormwater Inspections For commercial and industrial facility inspections, illicit discharge inspections and construction site control inspections, MRP Provisions C.4.c, C.5.b, and C.6.b, respectively, state that corrective actions shall be implemented before the next rain event, but no longer than 10 business days after the potential and/or actual non-stormwater discharges are discovered. If more than 10 business days are required for compliance, a rationale shall be recorded in the electronic database or equivalent tabular system.

3.3 Private Land Drainage Areas
For inspection of Private Land Drainage Areas for trash management as required by Provision C.10.a.ii.(b), it is recommended that corrective actions related to trash removal shall be implemented before the next rain event, but no longer than 10 business days after the potential non-stormwater discharges are discovered. More time may be allowed for permanent trash management corrective actions before a follow-up inspection is scheduled.

3.4 Immediate Abatement of Active Nonstormwater Discharges All active non-stormwater discharges must be abated immediately. If an active non-stormwater discharge is observed during any inspection, immediate abatement of the non-stormwater discharge is required. If an active non-stormwater discharge is observed during a business inspection, the business will become a high priority and will be inspected annually. The business will be placed back on its regular inspection schedule (as outlined in the City’s Business Inspection Plan) once it has returned to continued compliance. 339
4 Revised May 2023

4.0 Escalation of Enforcement Actions
Depending on the nature and circumstances of each potential or actual non-stormwater discharge and the corrective action required, the City is authorized to escalate progressively stricter enforcement to achieve expedient compliance. The following factors are used to determine whether an enforcement action will be escalated:

1. Magnitude of harm to the environment. Potential or actual non-stormwater discharges may range from relatively minor environmental harm to very serious. The enforcement official will use his/her best professional judgment to decide the magnitude of the situation. The greater the harm to the environment, the more escalated the enforcement action will be.

2. Prompt corrective action. Whether the responsible party has complied in a timely manner with any required corrective action(s) or other enforcement responses. For example, if a facility receives a first-time verbal or written warning for a potential or actual non-stormwater discharge and the responsible party takes no action, then an escalated enforcement response is warranted.

3. Duration of violations. Whether the potential or actual non-stormwater discharge is an isolated event or has continued over prolonged periods of time also informs the decision to escalate enforcement or not. Continued or persistent issues will subject the responsible party to escalated enforcement actions.

4. Other relevant circumstances.
a. Good faith. Good faith demonstrated by a responsible party to comply with enforcement requirements may be considered when determining if an escalated enforcement response is necessary.
b. Effect of potential or actual non-stormwater discharge on agency performance.

A responsible party may contribute to the City’s inability to meet its NPDES permit performance standards and requirements. Such potential or actual non-stormwater discharges shall be assigned a higher level of enforcement to ensure prompt compliance.
c. History of non-compliance. If the responsible party has a history of past noncompliance, repeat violations are subject to escalated enforcement.

4.1 Example of Escalated Enforcement Protocol
Beginning with first-time non-compliance, the following example protocol demonstrates an appropriate enforcement response. The type of escalation is case-dependent and requires an assessment of the factors listed above. The enforcement response flow chart figures presented below (Figures 1 through 3) outline the protocol for escalating enforcement. • City inspector issues a verbal warning for inadequate BMPs. The inadequate BMPs observed do not present an imminent threat to stormwater quality (e.g., an enclosure is 340
5 Revised May 2023
being used for storage and the garbage bins are being stored outside). The inspector gives the responsible party 10 business days to comply.
• The City inspector conducts a re-inspection after 10 business days to verify that the responsible party is in compliance.
• If the responsible party has not complied, the City issues the next enforcement action within 48 hours and a written warning in the form of a formal letter is sent to the responsible party. The written warning includes information on the inadequate BMPs observed during the inspection, the date that the verbal warning was given, the timeline to correct the issue, the date that the re-inspection occurred, and the findings of the reinspection. • The responsible party has 10 business days to comply with the written warning. • The City inspector conducts a re-inspection after 10 business days to verify that the responsible party is in compliance. Given the type of violation observed in this example, the inspector would not necessarily escalate the enforcement above the written warning if the responsible party had not yet corrected the problem. If no rain is imminent and the there is no immediate threat to stormwater quality, the inspector would typically send a second written warning within 24-48 hours, where such letter would be sent via certified mail. The responsible party would have 10 business days to comply with the second written warning.
• If the responsible party had not complied with the second written warning, then the City would issue the next enforcement action within 30 business days, assuming there continues to be no immediate threat to the environment. If there is an immediate threat to the environment, escalating enforcement must be expedited. The next enforcement action may be an Administrative Order, Administrative Citation, referral to the City or District Attorney’s office, or referral to the Regional Water Board. 341

5.0 Stormwater Inspections
This section describes the stormwater inspections that occur in the City for operations and maintenance (O&M) of stormwater treatment systems, industrial and commercial facilities, illicit discharges, and construction sites.

5.1 MRP Section C.3.h. – Operations and Maintenance Verification of Stormwater Treatment Systems
The MRP requires that an average of 20 percent, but no less than 15 percent, of Regulated Projects, offsite projects, or regional projects are inspected each year. All projects, including installed pervious pavement systems that total 3,000 square feet or more (with some exclusions), stormwater treatment systems, and hydromodification management (HM) controls, must be inspected at least once every five (5) years.

The Environmental & Sustainability Manager within the Environmental & Sustainability Division in the Public Works Department has the primary responsibility of ensuring all O&M verification inspections are completed. The City contracts with a consultant to complete the inspections. The consultant works with the Environmental & Sustainability Manager to determine the appropriate escalating enforcement response when needed. The City Manager is involved in situations that are escalated to an Administrative Citation.

In addition to the O&M inspections, Public Works Construction Inspectors inspect all stormwater treatment measures, hydromodification management measures, and pervious pavement systems that total 3,000 square feet or more. This inspection occurs at the completion of installation of the stormwater features, as required by the MRP.

5.2 MRP Section C.4 – Industrial/Commercial Facilities
As part of its Business Inspection Plan, the City updates and maintains a list of industrial and commercial facilities which could reasonably be considered to cause or contribute to pollution of stormwater runoff. These facilities are subject to a formal inspection. The City conducts approximately 125 inspections annually. As described in the City’s Business Inspection Plan, businesses are generally inspected once every 5 years. If an active non-stormwater discharge is observed during a formal inspection, the facility becomes a high priority and will be inspected on an annual basis. In addition, businesses that do not implement corrective actions in a timely manner become high priority and are inspected on an annual basis. The business is placed back in its regular, five-year inspection schedule once it has achieved compliance at least two years in a row.

The Environmental Technician within the Environmental & Sustainability Division in the Public Works Department has the primary responsibility of ensuring business inspections are conducted at all industrial and commercial sites which may be reasonably considered to cause or contribute to stormwater runoff pollution. The City contracts with a consultant to complete the business inspections. The consultant works with the Environmental Technician to determine the appropriate escalating enforcement response. As necessary, the Environmental Technician works 345
10 Revised May 2023
with the Environmental & Sustainability Manager to resolve escalating enforcement issues. The City Manager is involved in situations that are escalated to an Administrative Citation.

5.3 MRP section C.5 – Illicit Discharge Detection/Elimination The Environmental & Sustainability Division within the Public Works Department is responsible for spill and discharge response, investigation, clean-up, follow-up, and record keeping of items that must be included in the annual stormwater report submitted to the Regional Water Board.

The illicit discharge investigation information is collected and stored as required in the MRP.

The Environmental & Sustainability Division utilizes assistance from various departments and agencies, as needed, including others in the Public Works Department, Community Development Department, Alameda County Fire Department, Dublin San Ramon Services District, Zone 7 Flood Control District, Alameda County Environmental Health, or other agencies as needed to fully perform its duties under this provision.

When the City receives a notification about an illicit discharge, the staff person who receives the call follows the procedures outlined in the City’s Spill and Discharge Response Plan. The Spill and Discharge Response Plan is updated periodically, as necessary.

5.4 MRP Section C.6 – Construction Site Control
The Public Works Department is responsible for implementing control programs at all construction sites and for conducting construction site inspections to prevent discharge of pollutants from construction sites. The Public Works Inspectors conduct the inspections at construction sites. These inspectors respond to any violations observed at a construction site and issue appropriate enforcement responses. The Public Works Inspectors work with the City Engineer and/or Principal Engineer on resolving violations that require escalated enforcement action, such as an Administrative Citation or Stop Work Order.

The Public Works Inspectors have the authority to require that all active construction sites maintain effective good housekeeping practices, erosion control, run-on and runoff control, sediment control and active treatment systems for good site management and non-storm-water management through all phases of construction year-round.

Construction sites within the City are monitored daily by the City’s Public Works inspectors.

The inspectors enforce the Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plan (SWPPP) for the construction site in addition to Conditions of Approval and the City’s Subdivision Ordinance, all of which require erosion control.

Pursuant to the requirements of the MRP, an inspection form for each construction site is filled out once a month during the rainy season (October – April). The inspection data and findings are collected and consolidated as required in the MRP. In instances where a potential or actual nonstormwater discharge is observed, the inspector conducts follow-up inspections and ensures that corrective actions have been completed in a timely manner as prescribed. 346
11 Revised May 2023

5.5 MRP C.10 - PLDA Inspections
The Environmental & Sustainability Division in the Public Works Department is responsible for implementing the City’s Private Land Drainage Area (PLDA) inspection program. The City contracts with a consultant to complete the on-going PLDA inspections, which include on-land visual trash assessments (OVTAs). These inspections, at PLDAs identified in the City’s PLDA inventory, are to demonstrate compliance with MRP Provision C.10.a.ii.(b) to ensure PLDAs are full capture equivalent. In instances where a PLDA receives an OVTA score of B, C or D (i.e. significant trash generation), the inspector conducts a follow-up inspection and ensures that trash management corrective actions have been completed in a timely manner as prescribed. The consultant works with the Environmental & Sustainability Manager to resolve escalating enforcement issues. The City Manager is involved in situations that are escalated to an Administrative Citation.

PLDA trash inspection is completed in the Clean Water Program ArcGIS on-line platform.

6.0 Joint Compliance Inspections
In some situations, it is appropriate to carry out joint compliance inspections with other agencies because of the nature of the issues involved or because there are on-going or repeat compliance issues which may benefit from the enforcement options provided by other environmental statutes. Using the results of a joint compliance inspection, the regulatory agencies will be able to decide how to achieve compliance most efficiently.

The City of Dublin is most likely to conduct joint compliance inspections with the Dublin San Ramon Services District (DSRSD) or Zone 7 Flood Control District. The contact information follows:
• DSRSD Administrative Offices – 7051 Dublin Blvd., Dublin, CA 94568, 925-828-0515 • DSRSD Wastewater Treatment Plant – 7399 Johnson Drive, Pleasanton, CA 94588, 925- 8464565
• Zone 7 Water Agency – 100 North Canyons Parkway, Livermore, CA 94551, 925-454- 5000
The City may also perform a joint inspection with the Regional Water Board for construction sites under the Statewide Construction Stormwater General Permit and industrial facilities under the Statewide Industrial Stormwater General Permit.

7.0 Enforcement Response Protocol
NOTE: The table below is for illustrative purposes only. The actual and specific enforcement action taken will be a case-by-case determination and will depend on the factors described in Section 4 above. The enforcement response flow charts provided in Figures 1through 3 outline the process for responding to violations and escalating enforcement. 347

Verbal Warning
This is an informal notification of a minor housekeeping issue. A verbal warning will usually precede a written warning. Verbal warnings are issued in instances where the person who has local control is onsite (e.g., the property manager or owner) and there is not an immediate threat of a discharge, (e.g., a BMP is easily corrected).

Between 2013 and 2017 CSWST2 assisted the San Mateo Community College District, the Foothill DeAnza Community College District and the Solano Community College District with developing district-wide storm water management programs. The programs covered multiple campuses and, while not required by the State, were written to align with Section F of the Statewide Phase II Small Municipal Separate Storm Sewer System (MS4) Program. The district-wide programs included storm sewer system mapping, programming for staff pollution prevention and good housekeeping, an outline for public involvement and participation, and programming for illicit discharge detection and elimination. Additionally programs were outlined for pollution prevention for district construction projects as well as low impact development criteria for campus development projects.

STORMWATER NPDES INSPECTION SERVICES | 3
Planners and developers completed the culvert in the early 1930’s, which commences at the University of California campus just east of Oxford Avenue and flows west to the San Francisco Bay. In recent years, segments of the culvert have collapsed causing sinkholes and damaging property. Serving a drainage area of about 1,163 acres, with a 100-year flow of about 874 cubic feet per second, blockage of the culvert could be catastrophic for the Berkeley Community.

In 2022, the City retained CSW/ST2 to locate the alignment of the culvert and determine where it lies within City and private property. For the segments within the public right of way, we competed an assessment of the culvert in accordance with the American Concrete Institute’s 201.1R “Guide for Making a Condition Survey of Concrete Service.” The evaluation confirmed the extent of scaling as well as cracking, delamination, and spalling of the concrete within the culvert. The results found areas of distress in the concrete that without repair, could cause further deterioration and potential collapse of the culvert.

In summer 2023, we commenced materials testing of segments of the culvert which included taking samples of the concrete to test for compressive strength, petrographic analysis to determine the integrity of concrete, and GPR mapping to validate the presence of reinforcement steel.

Our team developed plans to repair the existing culvert by completing spot repairs of the concrete and applying a sprayable fiber reinforced geopolymer mortar over the inside of culvert within the public right of way. We are currently working with the RWQCB, Corps of Engineers, and Department of Fish and Wildlife to secure permits for the work anticipated to commence in the summer of 2024.

RELEVANT EXPERIENCE
The City of San Rafael continuously repairs portions of 2nd Street in San Rafael which subsides over a large diameter storm drain culvert which crosses under multiple roadways. The concrete reinforce culvert varies from 96” to 128” and helps provide flood protection during the wet weather season.

Working with Public Works Department staff, CSW/ST2 found a failed portion of the culvert underlying the subsiding street segment. To mitigate this failed portion of culvert, a reinforced concrete patch at the top of the culvert was designed. To avoid permitting and mitigation requirements from the resource agencies, construction access to the culvert is proposed through the roadway.

RELEVANT EXPERIENCE

PORT OF RICHMOND STORM DRAIN
REPAIRS Our team has acted as the contract
Port Engineer for the Port of Richmond since
2011. In this capacity, we have supported the
replacement of storm drain pipelines at the
Point Potrero Terminal. Henry Kaiser original
constructed this terminal in 1942 to support
the construction of Liberty and Victory Ships
in response to World War II. Much of the
underground infrastructure is in poor condition
creating sinkholes within the 130-acre facility.

Our team was responsible for mapping
the storm drain system, assessing pipeline
conditions, and developing a plan for its
restoration.

As much of the shipyard is located within
an environmental cap, we have repaired the
storm drain system using trenchless methods
including installed cured in place pipe liner
and pulling high density polythene lines within
existing corrugated metal pipes. To repair
sinkholes, we have used various polyurethan
injection grouting strategies. Currently about
50% of the pipelines have been restored with
the remainder expected within the next decade.

rehabilitation of Miller Avenue, which is the
key arterial roadway to Mill Valley, our team
completed repair of storm drains using slip

metal outfalls to the Richardson Bay and
were in poor condition. We coordinated the
repair with the tides to minimize the need for
dewatering operations.

MARTIN CANYON CREEK FLOOD DAMAGE
REPAIR, DUBLIN Martin Canyon Creek is a
small tributary that serves a watershed of about

1.08 square miles in Dublin. During the 2022/
2023 storms, intense rainfall caused a debris
flow to partially block a downstream culvert at
Silvergate Drive. The City received emergency
funding from the Office of Emergency Services
to assess the condition and make repairs. As
part of our on-call agreement, our team is
supporting the City in assessing conditions,
developing a repair recommendation, and
supporting permitting. Our team has
completed an initial assessment of the creek
and suspect that measures installed in the
late 1990’s by residential developers designed
to promote equilibrium in the slope were
inadequate for the storm event that occurred.

We are currently evaluating options to stabilize
the creek as well as remove sediment and
debris.

The State of California began requiring actions
to prevent or manage the impacts of urban
runoff in 1990. The City of Dublin is subject to
the requirements described in the Municipal
Regional NPDES Permit (MRP), which was
recently adopted by the San Francisco Bay
Regional Water Quality Control Board (Regional
Water Board) and became effective on July 1,
2022. The reissued permit applies to 79 cities,
towns, counties, and flood control agencies
that discharge stormwater to San Francisco Bay,
collectively referred to as Permittees. The City of
Dublin participates in the Alameda Countywide
Clean Water Program to coordinate stormwater
management activities and implements some of
the requirements in MRP at the countywide level
on behalf of Permittees. The Regional Water
Board’s authority to issue the MRP is derived
from the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency’s
National Pollutant Discharge Elimination
System (NPDES), which was developed under
the Federal Clean Water Act and implemented
by the State of California. The Permit requires
the reduction of key pollutants, which include
trash, sediment, mercury, polychlorinated
biphenyls or PCBs, and others, in stormwater.

The Permit also requires the implementation of
urban runoff controls for land development and
redevelopment projects, inspection programs
for businesses and construction sites, education
and outreach, and monitoring water quality
and the effectiveness of these actions. City staff
report annually to the Water Board, as required
by the permit, on the actions, inspections,
outreach, plans, and achievements made in
compliance with the regulations.

We have developed a work plan to support the
goals of the RFP. Our work plan features the
following elements to successfully support the
city’s conformance with the MRP:

1. COMMUNICATION The communication
conduit with the City will be Julia Harberson.

This single point of contact eliminates possible
misunderstandings and duplication of effort.

2. DOCUMENTATION We will prepare
the report documents outlined in the RFP.

Additionally, we will prepare a formal report
monthly to the City regarding schedule and
status updates. The report will highlight items
requiring feedback from the City.

3. OWNER/OPERATOR COORDINATION
As directed by the City, our team will actively
coordinate with the owner/operators via US
mail, electronic and in person. Coordination will
include setting inspections and, if necessary,
re-inspections, corrective actions, as well as
annual documentation reports.

SAMPLE WORK FLOW
CSWST2 is a full service firm in the discipline
of stormwater compliance. Our team provides
inspection and field review services for various
municipal and private needs including, but
not limited to, pollution prevention and
discharge compliance, channel and pipeline
investigation and assessment, and construction
of stormwater low impact development (LID)
improvements. We provide infrastructure
and landscape design for LID improvements
and preparation of documents for sizing, and
operation and maintenance (O&M) manuals
and agreements. Our experience includes the
development of stormwater management
programs for non-traditional small municipal
separate storm sewer systems (MS4) to assist
with asset management and mapping, MS4
system operation, maintenance and inspection,
programming for illicit discharge detection and
elimination, and programming for low impact
development requirements and construction
stormwater pollution prevention requirements
within the lands of the small MS4. From our
experience we have developed the following
work plan.

TASK 1 NPDES ADMINISTRATION

1.1 ANNUAL PROJECT KICK-OFF Our team
will meet with City staff to review the inspection
goals, our proposed schedule, and review
existing documentation.

1.2 DEVELOP SITE MATRIX/UPDATE SITE
MATRIX We will utilize the list of regulated
projects provided by the City to create a matrix
to track project progress annually. We will
provide the City with the matrix at the end
of each contract year. This document will be
utilized to track inspection and documentation
history. The matrix will include tracking of the
annual operations and maintenance (O&M)
inspection reports, in accordance with the
owner/operators’ Stormwater Management
Maintenance Agreements. The matrix will also
identify regulated projects that require more
than one type of inspection (i.e. C.4 general
business inspection and C.3 O&M inspections
and/or a C.10 private land drainage (PLDA)
area inspection). Regulated projects or parcels
requiring multiple inspection types, will be
identified and every effort will be made to
combine the inspections to reduce redundant
effort.

1.3 INSPECTION PLAN We will update the
5-year inspection plan utilizing the information
provided in the Clean Water Program
ArcGIS On-Line database and will meet the
requirements of the MRP. We will also submit
an annual inspection plan to the City for review
and approval, identifying current site contacts
and reviewing the CWP database to ensure the
5-year plan is up to date.

1.4 IDENTIFY REGULATED PROJECTS At
the start of each year, our team will identify 25%
of regulated projects to inspect. Initiating the
inspection process on 25% of regulated projects
will insure that at least 20% of regulated projects
will be inspected with in the annual inspection
period.

TASK 4 ILLICIT DISCHARGE AND SPILL RESPONSE ASSISTANCEE CSW/ST2 has developed the following work plan
to address illicit discharge and spill response
requirements in the MRP. By addressing these
aspects within the scope of work, the City can
effectively manage illicit discharge incidents
and minimize their environmental and public
health impacts. We will utilize the City’s Spill
and Discharge Response Plan to perform the
following scope. Once an illicit discharge or spill
is detected and our team is notified, we will
initiate the following tasks.
4 .1 INVESTIGATION AND SOURCE
IDENTIFICATION The City will have after-hours
contact information for our principal-in-charge,
project manager, and oversight inspector. Upon
notification that an incident has occurred which
requires response, a qualified inspector of our
team will be ready to obtain the appropriate field
forms, any available improvement plans and/
or GIS information identifying the location of
storm drains in the immediate area. They will be
ready to conduct a thorough investigation of the
discharge/spill location to determine the source
and nature of the discharge. This may involve
collecting samples of the discharged material,
inspection of nearby and downstream facilities
or infrastructure, and interviews with relevant
stakeholders. Material samples will collected
and stored in appropriate containers that our
inspector will have on hand as part of their
field equipment. Our inspector will transport
the samples to the laboratory in an expedient
and safe manner, following chain of custody
requirements, for analysis. We assume the
City will perform or contract the testing of the
samples and provide the data to our team.
4 .2 CONTAINMENT AND MITIGATION
After consulting with City staff regarding the
level of involvement required for the incident
at hand, the inspector will be ready to develop
action plans and assist with spill containment,
and/or assist with record keeping and timetracking. This could include advising to deploy barriers, divert contaminated water, or implement
temporary measures to stop the discharge until
a permanent solution can be implemented and/
or documenting the progress and timing of
response as it occurs.
4 .3 CLEANUP AND REMEDIATION We
will assist the City in developing a cleanup
plan to remove pollutants from the affected
environment. The plan may include the
designation of specialized equipment, such
as absorbent materials or vacuum trucks, and
coordination with environmental agencies
to ensure proper disposal of contaminated
materials.

4.4 DOCUMENTATION Our inspector will use
the City’s Urban Runoff and Incident Report
form to record all activities related to the illicit
discharge response, including investigation
findings, containment and cleanup efforts, and
any enforcement actions taken.
