RECOMMENDATION:

Recommendation to receive and file the Beautification Program updated report for the month of July 2023.

SUMMARY
The City of Hawaiian Gardens Public Housing Authority created a City Beautification Program for exterior improvements for single-family, duplex, and mobile homes, and interior improvements for condominiums. The Program is currently funded through the Hawaiian Gardens Public Housing Authority and the General Fund. This report is an update on General Fund expenditures.

The intent of the Program is to improve the overall appearance of the City of Hawaiian Gardens’ neighborhoods, increase property values, and increase community pride. The improvements on the homes must be deemed beneficial to the overall exterior appearance of the property and address deteriorated and unsightly conditions visible from the street. Financial assistance up to a maximum of $10,000 is provided to property owners and up to $25,000 for substandard cases through a grant. There is also a $2,500 grant available for emergency cases.

Below is the status on new applications received or in process during the month of July 2023.

STAFF REPORT
Agenda Item #B7
DATE: August 22, 2023
TO: Honorable Mayor and Members of the City Council
FROM: Ernesto Marquez, City Manager
BY: Linda Hollinsworth, Finance Director
RECOMMENDATION:

RECOMMENDATION TO RECEIVE AND FILE WORKSITE EXPERIENCE SPONSOR

AGREEMENT WITH SOUTHEAST LOS ANGELES COUNTY WORKFORCE

DEVELOPMENT BOARD (SELACO WDB)

SUMMARY
The City recently approved an agreement with SELACO WDB and receives funds to participate in a Youth Employment Program (YEP). This program provides for youth of Hawaiian Gardens, ages 14-24, a chance to gain training and work experience in businesses in and around the City as well as within City departments.

To expand the availability of this training and work experience, SELACO offers another program under the Workforce Innovation Opportunity Act (WIOA). This program provides training and work experience for adults. In addition, they offer an opportunity for additional work or training for youth who have completed their YEP work hours or who may not have met the qualifications under the YEP program. The WIOA program is managed by SELACO and they have a representative located on site at the City to facilitate placement of participants. SELACO has offered the City of Hawaiian Gardens an option to serve as a worksite for this WIOA program. Serving as a worksite means that participants may be doing their work experience at the City in various departments. Included with this report is an agreement between the City and SELACO to outline the responsibilities and guidelines required to serve as a SELACO WDB worksite.

The City welcomes this chance to support SELACO and the residents of Hawaiian Gardens by providing these programs that allow adults and youth of the City additional opportunities for training and work experience.

RECOMMENDATION:

RECOMMENDATION TO APPROVE AN AGREEMENT BETWEEN THE LOS

ANGELES GATEWAY REGION INTEGRATED REGIONAL WATER MANAGEMENT

JOINT POWERS AUTHORITY AND THE CITY OF HAWAIIAN GARDENS FOR COST

SHARING FOR THE INSTALLATION OF MONITORING EQUIPMENT AND

MONITORING PURSUANT TO THE HARBOR TOXIC POLLUTANT TMDL

SUMMARY
On May 5, 2011, the California Regional Water Quality Control Board adopted the Harbor Toxics Total Maximum Daily Loads (TMDL). In 2011 the cities tributary to Coyote Creek (a major tributary of the San Gabriel River) including Hawaiian Gardens formed a technical committee to address the USEPA’s Metals TMDL. This TMDL became effective on March 23, 2012, and required public agencies to begin monitoring the amount of residual DDT, PCB, and related compounds being discharged into the rivers by stormwater and urban runoff.

The cities and agencies have worked together with the Gateway Region Integrated Regional Water Management Joint Powers Authority (GWMA) to develop this agreement to share the cost of the monitoring equipment and monitoring.

On June 23, 2015, the City Council approved a cost sharing agreement with GWMA.

The agreement expired on June 30, 2018, and the new agreement was signed and extended until June 30, 2023.

The expiration date of said agreement was June 30, 2023 therefore, it is necessary to enter into a new agreement that will extend until June 30, 2026 in order to continue the work.

FISCAL IMPACT
The City’s share of cost for the Fiscal Year (FY) 2023-24 based on an $142,514.10 estimate is expected to be $2,049.23, for the FY 2024-25 based on an $143,130.64 estimate is expected to be $2,058.10, and for the FY 2025-26 based on an $146,490.37 estimate is expected to be $2,106.41. These costs have been anticipated and are already part of the approved budget for NPDES expenditures.

SUGGESTED ACTION
Approve Recommendation.

AGREEMENT

BETWEEN THE LOS ANGELES GATEWAY REGION INTEGRATED REGIONAL

WATER MANAGEMENT JOINT POWERS AUTHORITY

AND THE

CITY OF HAWAIIAN GARDENS

FOR COST SHARING FOR THE INSTALLATION OF MONITORING EQUIPMENT

AND MONITORING PURSUANT TO THE HARBOR TOXIC POLLUTANTS TMDL This Agreement is made and entered into as of August 22, 2023, by and between the Los Angeles Gateway Region Integrated Regional Water Management Joint Powers Authority (“GWMA”), a California Joint Powers Authority, and the City of Hawaiian Gardens, (the “Permittee”). The Permittee and the GWMA are collectively referred to as the “Parties”;

RECITALS
WHEREAS, the mission of the GWMA includes the equitable protection and management of water resources within its area;
WHEREAS, for the purposes of this Agreement, the term “MS4 Permittees” shall mean those public agencies that are co-permittees to a National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System Municipal Separate Storm Sewer System Permit Order (“MS4 Permit”) issued by the Los Angeles Regional Water Quality Control Board; WHEREAS, the United States Environmental Protection Agency established the Total Maximum Daily Loads (“TMDL”) for Toxic Pollutants on March 23, 2012, with the intent of protecting and improving water quality in the Dominguez Channel and the Greater Los Angeles and Long Beach Harbor Waters (“Harbor Toxic Pollutants TMDL”); WHEREAS, the Harbor Toxic Pollutants TMDL regulates certain discharges from National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (“NPDES”) permit holders, requiring organization and cooperation among the MS4 Permittees;
WHEREAS, the Permittee manages, drains or conveys storm water into at least a portion of the Los Angeles River including its estuary or Coyote Creek or the San Gabriel River including their estuaries;
WHEREAS, various MS4 Permittees desire to achieve the objectives of the Harbor Toxic Pollutants TMDL by continuing to maintain the monitoring station in the Los Angeles River at Wardlow Road, monitoring station in the San Gabriel River near Spring Street, and monitoring station in the Coyote Creek, also near Spring Street and conducting monitoring at said monitoring stations (collectively “Monitoring Stations”) to ensure consistency with other regional monitoring programs and usability with other TMDL related studies;

Page 1 of 10 ends

12664/0001/279556-1
WHEREAS, continuing maintenance of the Monitoring Stations and future monitoring requires administrative coordination for the various MS4 Permittees that the GWMA can and is willing to provide;
WHEREAS, the Lower Los Angeles River Watershed Management Group and the Lower San Gabriel River Watershed Management Group have been formed pursuant to the MS4 Permit and oversee and manage the monitoring program for the Harbor Toxic Pollutants TMDL within their respective watersheds;
WHEREAS, the members of the GWMA are the Cities of Artesia, Bell, Bell Gardens, Bellflower, Cerritos, Commerce, Compton, Cudahy, Downey, Hawaiian Gardens, Huntington Park, La Mirada, Lakewood, Long Beach, Lynwood, Maywood, Montebello, Norwalk, Paramount, Pico Rivera, Santa Fe Springs, Signal Hill, South Gate, Vernon, Whittier, Water Replenishment District, Central Basin Municipal Water District, Port of Long Beach, and the Long Beach Water Department (“GWMA Members”); WHEREAS, because of the financial savings and benefits resulting from this costsharing arrangement, other MS4 Permittees that are not GWMA Members may request to participate in the cost sharing of the Monitoring Costs for the maintenance of the Monitoring Stations and the costs of monitoring conducted at the Monitoring Stations (collectively “Monitoring Costs”);
WHEREAS, the GWMA Board of Directors authorized the GWMA to enter into individual separate agreements with such individual MS4 Permittees (which shall not have voting rights in the GWMA) for purposes of only cost sharing in the Monitoring Costs; WHEREAS, because GWMA Members already pay annual membership fees that pay for GWMA administrative costs, GWMA Members that participate in the cost share for the Monitoring Costs shall pay an administrative fee that is less than that the administrative fee charged to MS4 Permittees that are not GWMA Members; WHEREAS, certain private NPDES permit holders that are subject to the Harbor Toxic Pollutants TMDL have also expressed interest in participating in the cost share for the Monitoring Costs and procuring the monitoring data generated pursuant to this Agreement in order to satisfy their own permit obligations; WHEREAS, the current agreements that cover the cost share arrangements for the Monitoring Costs through fiscal year 2022-2023 will expire on June 30, 2023.

WHEREAS, it is currently unknown how many MS4 Permittees and private NPDES permit holders will ultimately participate in the cost sharing of the Monitoring Costs for fiscal years 2023-2024 through 2025-2026;
WHEREAS, depending on how many MS4 Permittees and private NPDES permit holders ultimately participate in the cost sharing for the Monitoring Costs, each participating Permittee’s annual cost share amount will be adjusted and the GWMA will notify each participating Permittee of its adjusted annual cost share amount in writing;

Page 2 of 10 ends

12664/0001/279556-1
WHEREAS, the Permittee desires to share in the Monitoring Costs; WHEREAS, the Parties have determined that authorizing GWMA to hire consultants as necessary to maintain the Monitoring Stations and conduct the monitoring required by the Harbor Toxic Pollutants TMDL will be beneficial to the Parties; WHEREAS, the Permittee agrees to pay: (a) its proportional share of the Monitoring Costs to be incurred by the GWMA in accordance with the Cost Sharing Formula reflected in Exhibit “A”; and (b) applicable administrative fees to cover administrative costs; and
WHEREAS, the role of the GWMA is to: (1) invoice and collect funds from the Permittee to cover its portion of the Monitoring Costs; and (2) hire and retain consultants to maintain Monitoring Stations and conduct monitoring at the Monitoring Stations.

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual covenants and conditions set forth herein, the Parties do hereby agree as follows:

Section 1. Purpose. The purpose of this Agreement is for the Permittee to cost share in the Monitoring Costs.

Section 2. Cooperation. The Parties shall fully cooperate with one another to achieve the purposes of this Agreement.

Section 3.

Section 4.

(c) The GWMA is authorized and may negotiate, enter into agreements with, and collect funds from general and individual NPDES permit holders, that are not MS4 Permittees, for cost-sharing the Monitoring Costs in order to reduce the total costs incurred by the MS4 Permittees.

Page 3 of 10 ends

12664/0001/279556-1
Section 7.
(a)
Financial Terms.

Annual Payment Amount. The Permittee shall pay no more than the following amounts for each of the three fiscal years (June 30-July 1) listed below (“Annual Payment Amount”):

Fiscal Year 2023-2024:

One Thousand Nine Hundred Fifty One Dollars and Sixty Five Cents ($1,951.65) Fiscal Year 2024-2025:

One Thousand Nine Hundred Sixty Dollars and Nine Cents ($1,960.09) Fiscal Year 2025-2026:

Two Thousand Six Dollars and Ten Cents ($2,006.10)
Each Annual Payment Amount includes the Permittee’s Cost Share Amount identified in Exhibit “A”, attached hereto and incorporated herein.
(b) Administrative Costs. In addition to the Annual Payment Amount, the Permittee shall also pay its proportional share of the GWMA’s staff time for hiring the consultants, managing the consultants’ contracts, and invoicing the Permittee and legal fees incurred by the GWMA in the performance of its duties under this Agreement (“Direct Costs”), and audit expenses and other overhead costs (“Indirect Costs”), referred to collectively herein as the “Administrative Costs Payment Amount”. The Administrative Costs Payment Amount will be added to the Permittee’s annual invoice to cover the Permittee’s share of the administrative costs.
i. GWMA Members. If the Permittee is a GWMA Member, then the Administrative Costs Payment Amount does not include the GWMA’s Indirect Costs, which GWMA Members absorb as part of their annual membership dues. The rate charged to GWMA Members in order to recover the Direct Costs portion of the Administrative Costs Payment Amount will range between zero percent (0%) and five percent (5%) of the of the Permittee’s Cost Share Amount identified in Exhibit “A.” On an annual basis the GWMA will evaluate the percentage rate charged to GWMA Members to ensure it adequately recovers the GWMA’s cost of performing its duties under this Agreement. Based on this review, the GWMA Board will establish the rate charged to recover its Direct Costs for the next fiscal year. The GWMA will provide the Permittee, through the respective Chairs of the Lower San Gabriel River and Lower Los Angeles River Watershed Management Groups, fifteen (15) days’ written notice prior to July 1st of the fiscal year in which a new rate will take effect. ii. Non-GWMA Members. If the Permittee is not a GWMA
Member, then the Administrative Costs Payment Amount will include the GWMA’s Indirect Costs. The rate charged to Non-GWMA Members in order to recover Direct Costs will range between five percent (5%) and ten percent (10%) of the Permittee’s Cost Share Amount identified in Exhibit “A.” The rate charged to Non-GWMA Members in order to

Page 4 of 10 ends

12664/0001/279556-1
recover Indirect Costs will range between two percent (2%) and five percent (5%) of the Permittee’s Cost Share Amount identified in Exhibit “A.” On an annual basis the GWMA will evaluate the percentage rates for both Direct and Indirect Costs charged to NonGWMA Members to ensure they adequately recover the GWMA’s cost of performing its duties under this MOU. Based on this review, the GWMA Board may increase or decrease the rates charged to recover its Direct and Indirect Costs for the next fiscal year. The GWMA will provide the Permittee, through the respective Chairs of the Lower San Gabriel River and Lower Los Angeles River Watershed Management Groups, fifteen (15) days’ written notice prior to July 1st of the fiscal year in which a new rate will take effect.
(c) Adjustment of Cost Share Based on Number of Participants. The Annual Payment Amount and the Administrative Costs Payment Amount identified in this Section 7 (“Financial Terms”) represent the maximum dollar amounts that the Permittee is required to submit to the GWMA, but may be reduced based on the final number of MS4 Permittees that participate in the cost sharing for the Monitoring Costs. (d) Reserve Credits. If the actual cost share amount plus administrative costs collected by GWMA from all participating permittees in the Harbor Toxic Pollutants TMDL program are less than the Annual Payment Amount, plus the Administrative Costs Payment Amount, paid by all permittees in a particular year, then the GWMA will notify the Chairs of the Lower San Gabriel River and Lower Los Angeles River Watershed Management Groups. The Chairs will direct GWMA on how to apply the excess balance, which may include carrying the balance over to cover permittee costs in one or more subsequent years. , GWMA reserves the right to transfer funds from the excess balance to maintain a minimum balance of $10,000 in its account dedicated to the Harbor Toxic Pollutants TMDL program at all times, per GWMA’s Administrative Budget Policy.

Notwithstanding the forgoing, the Administrative Costs Payment Amount charged to nonGWMA Members for Indirect Costs will be retained by GWMA and is not subject to a credit.
(e) Funds remaining in the possession of the GWMA at the expiration or earlier termination of this MOU shall be promptly returned to the Permittee in proportion to the Cost Share Amount identified in Exhibit “A” or rolled over into the subsequent MOU for the Harbor Toxic Pollutants TMDL if requested by the Permittee. (f) The Permittee’s Annual Payment Amount and Administrative Costs Payment Amount for the 2023-2024 fiscal year are due upon execution of this Agreement, but in no event later than September 30, 2023. For each subsequent fiscal year, commencing with the 2024-2025 fiscal year, the GWMA shall submit annual invoices to the Permittee for the Annual Payment Amount and Administrative Costs Payment Amount. Upon receiving an invoice from GWMA, each Permittee shall pay the Annual Payment Amount and Administrative Costs Payment Amount set forth in the invoice to the GWMA within forty-five (45) days of receipt.
(g) The Permittee shall be delinquent if its invoiced payment is not received by the GWMA within forty-five (45) days after the invoice’s date. If the Permittee

Page 5 of 10 ends

12664/0001/279556-1
is delinquent, the GWMA will: 1) verbally contact the representative of the Permittee; and 2) submit a formal letter from the GWMA Executive Officer to the Permittee at the address listed in Section 11 of this Agreement. If payment is not received within sixty (60) days of the original invoice date, the GWMA may terminate this Agreement. However, no such termination may be ordered unless the GWMA first provides the Permittee with thirty (30) days written notice of its intent to terminate the Agreement. The terminated Permittee shall remain obligated to GWMA for its delinquent payments and any other obligations incurred prior to the date of termination. If the GWMA terminates this Agreement because the Permittee is delinquent in its payment, the Permittee shall no longer be entitled to the monitoring data collected from the Monitoring Stations. (h) Any delinquent payments by the Permittee shall accrue compound interest at the average rate of interest paid by the Local Agency Investment Fund during the time that the payment is delinquent.

Section 8. Independent Contractor.
(a) The GWMA is, and shall at all times remain, a wholly independent contractor for performance of the obligations described in this Agreement. The GWMA’s officers, officials, employees and agents shall at all times during the term of this Agreement be under the exclusive control of the GWMA. The Permittee cannot control the conduct of the GWMA or any of its officers, officials, employees or agents. The GWMA and its officers, officials, employees, and agents shall not be deemed to be employees of the Permittee.

Section 10. Termination.
(a) The Permittee may terminate this Agreement for any reason, or no reason, by giving the GWMA prior written notice thereof, but the Permittee shall remain responsible for its entire Annual Payment Amount through the end of the current fiscal year during which Permittee terminates the Agreement and shall not be entitled any refund of any portion of said Annual Payment Amount. Moreover, unless the Permittee provides written notice of termination to the GWMA by February 15th immediately prior to a new fiscal year, the Permittee shall also be responsible for its Annual Payment Amount through the end of such new fiscal year (e.g., If the Permittee terminates on March 1st, 2024, the Permittee is responsible for the Annual Payment Amounts for both fiscal years 2023-2024 and 2024-2025. If the Permittee terminates on February 10, 2024, the Permittee is responsible for its Annual Payment Amount only for Fiscal year 2023- 2024, not for fiscal year 2024-2025). If the Permittee terminates the Agreement, the Permittee shall remain liable for any loss, debt, or liability otherwise incurred through the end of the new fiscal year.
(b) The GWMA may, with a vote of the GWMA Board, terminate this Agreement upon not less than thirty (30) days written notice to the Permittee. Any remaining funds not due and payable or otherwise legally committed to Consultant shall be returned to the Permittee.

Section 11. Miscellaneous.
(a) Other NPDES Permit Holders. Individual or general NPDES permit holders who are not MS4 Permittees that receive Harbor Toxic Pollutants TMDL monitoring requirements in their NPDES permits may wish to participate in this cost share for the Monitoring Costs in order to receive the monitoring data collected from the Monitoring Stations. Upon receipt of a written request from an NPDES permit holder to participate in this cost share, the GWMA will either reject or accept the NPDES permit holder’s participation in the cost share arrangement. If accepted, the NPDES permit holder will enter into a separate cost share agreement with the GWMA that will require the NPDES permit holder to pay annually at least twelve thousand three hundred dollars ($12,300) (“Private Monitoring Fee”) for the Monitoring Costs. Failure to pay the Private Monitoring Fee by the date set forth in the cost share agreement will result in termination of the NPDES permit holder’s participant status. An NPDES permit holder accepted as a participant will only be entitled to receive the monitoring data collected from the Monitoring Stations for any fiscal year in which the participant has paid its Private Monitoring Fee. The Private Monitoring Fee will be applied as a credit toward the Permittee’s Annual Payment Amount in proportion to the Permittee’s Cost Share Amount identified in Exhibit “A.”

City of Hawaiian Gardens
Dear City of Hawaiian Gardens Representative:

This firm represents the BKK Working Group, an unaffiliated association of entities that has entered into a series of judicially-approved consent decrees with the California Department of Toxic Substances Control (''DTSC'') to take certain limited actions at the Class I Landfill portion (''Class I Landfill'') of the BKK Corporation Landfill Facility in West Covina, CA (the "Site''). The BKK Working Group previously entered into a Second Tolling Agreement with City of Hawaiian Gardens hereinafter referred to as "YOU" or "YOUR''). As we previously informed YOU, the BKK Working Group has recently discovered information suggesting that City of Hawaiian Gardens (hereinafter referred to as "YOU'') disposed of waste at the Class I Landfill and may therefore be liable for necessary response actions and other costs incurred by the BKK Working Group under§ 107(a) of the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation and Liability Act (''CERCLA''), 42 U.S.C. § 9607(a), and California Health and Safety Code§ 25323.5. Enclosed with this letter is a Third Tolling Agreement relating to potential claims the BKK Working Group may have against YOU based on its work at the Class I Landfill. At this time, the Working Group requests that YOU enter into a Third Tolling Agreement.

The BKK Landfill and Response Actions
The BKK Site is an approximately 583-acre facility located at 2210 South Azusa Avenue, West Covina, California. The Site contains a closed hazardous waste Class I landfill, a closed Class III D63/ 204615259.2

In total, the Class I Landfill accepted approximately five million tons of liquid and solid hazardous wastes together with substantially greater amounts of municipal and commercial wastes. BKK Corporation is the owner and operator of the Class I and Class III landfills.

In October 2004, BKK Corporation announced that it could not continue to conduct post-closure care for the Class I Landfill after November 17, 2004. Consequently, DTSC engaged a contractor to conduct emergency response activities and to operate and maintain the Class I Landfill's critical equipment and systems. In December 2004, DTSC issued an "Imminent and Substantial Endangerment Determination and Order and Remedial Action Order" ['ISE Order") to BKK Corporation and 50 other respondents, including former customers, who were alleged to be potentially responsible for conditions at the BKK Landfill. Some of these respondents are now members of the BKK Working Group. The !SE Order required the respondents to conduct operation and maintenance activities at the Class I Landfill and the leachate treatment plant.

In 2005, pursuant to several interim settlement agreements, the BKK Working Group began reimbursing DTSC for a portion of its response costs. In October 2005, the BKK Working Group and DTSC lodged a proposed Consent Decree with the Federal District Court for the Central District of California. That Consent Decree provided for the BKK Working Group to complete certain projects and perform operations at the BKK Class I Landfill and to pay for, and be released from, certain of DTSC's response costs. It also provided for DTSC to dismiss, without prejudice, the !SE Order against the BKK Working Group members. The Court entered the Consent Decree on March 6, 2006. The BKK Working Group and DTSC next agreed to a Second Consent Decree, which was entered by the Court on August 10, 2010. The Second Consent Decree required the BKK Working Group to conduct additional investigation activities at the Class I Landfill. Finally, the BKK Working Group and DTSC agreed to a Third Consent Decree, which requires the BKK Working Group to conduct certain investigation activities at the Class I Landfill related to groundwater. The Federal District Court entered the Third Consent Decree on July 24, 2015 and the First Amended Third Partial Consent Decree on October 18, 2016. DTSC may conduct or compel additional actions at the BKK Class I Landfill, including actions to address groundwater contamination.

DTSC has documented the release or threatened release of hazardous substances, pollutants or contaminants at the Class I Landfill. DTSC spent and will spend public funds, and the BKK Working Group spent and will spend its funds, on actions to investigate and control such releases or threatened releases at the Class I Landfill. Under provisions of California's Hazardous Substance Account Act ("HSAA"), Health and Safety Code sections 25300 et seq., including sections 25355.5(a) and 25358.3(a), DTSC may order potentially responsible parties ("PRPs'') to perform response actions deemed necessary by DTSC to protect the public health, welfare or the environment. Also, under the HSAA and CERCLA, PRPs may be compelled to compensate DTSC or other parties, including but not limited to the BKK Working Group, for costs incurred in responding to any release or threatened release at the Class I Landfill. Such actions and costs may include, but D83/ 204615259.2

are not limited to, expenditures for conducting daily maintenance of the Class I Landfill and associated systems, necessary repair work, monitoring and other post-closure activities, Engineering Evaluation/Cost Analyses, Remedial Investigation/Feasibility Studies, Remedial Design/Remedial Actions, groundwater cleanup and other investigative, planning, response oversight and enforcement activities. In addition, PRPs may be required to pay damages for injury to, destruction of, or loss of natural resources, including the cost of assessing such damages.

Shipping records maintained by DTSC and the BKK Corporation, as well as other business records maintained by the BKK Corporation, identify generators who arranged for the disposal of waste at the Class I landfill. Based on this information, the BKK Working Group believes that YOU are one of the generators that disposed of waste at the Class I landfill and therefore a PRP with respect to the Facility.

Third Tolling Agreement
The BKK Working Group has incurred response costs related to the BKK Class I Landfill, including but not limited to costs incurred pursuant to the three Consent Decrees. As a result, the BKK Working Group possesses claims against you for the recovery of response costs pursuant to CERCLA, the HSAA, and California common law. The BKK Working Group strongly prefers that any litigation be deferred until such time as a long-term settlement and enforcement approach has been developed for the Class I Landfill and that you and the other entities who arranged for the disposal of wastes have had the opportunity to participate in such a settlement. The BKK Working Group is working with DTSC on such an approach.

The BKK Working Group previously entered into a Second Tolling Agreement with YOU that will terminate on September 25, 2023. Enclosed is a Third Tolling Agreement that would further toll, or stop, any statute of limitations applicable to potential claims that the BKK Working Group has against you-or that you have against the BKK Working Group-relating to the Site from the effective date of the Third Tolling Agreement through 60 days following the termination of the Third Tolling Agreement. The Third Tolling Agreement terminates on September 25, 2026. The Third Tolling Agreement does not constitute an admission of fact or of liability. It is simply intended to provide the parties with additional time to consider settlement options. Please give these matters your immediate attention.
