Background and Findings
Statutory Authority
Public Resources Code section 42995 et seq., added to statute by the enactment of SB 862 (Statutes of 2014, Chapter 36) and amended by SB 155 (Statutes of 2021, Chapter 258), authorizes CalRecycle to administer a grant program to provide financial assistance to reduce the emissions of greenhouse gases (GHG) by promoting in-state development of infrastructure, food waste prevention, or other projects to reduce organic waste or process organic and other recyclable materials into new, value-added products.

Program Background
This Program is part of California Climate Investments, a statewide program that puts billions of Cap-and-Trade dollars to work reducing GHG emissions, strengthening the economy, and improving public health and the environment. At least 35 percent of California Climate Investments must benefit disadvantaged communities, low-income communities, and lowincome households, collectively known as priority populations.

This Program provides funds to support expansion of the waste management infrastructure, particularly for new or expanded organics infrastructure such as composting and digestion facilities, to achieve greenhouse gas reductions. These investments will result in reduced methane emissions from landfills; benefit priority populations by upgrading existing facilities and, where warranted, establish new facilities; result in air and water quality benefits in addition to greenhouse gas (GHG) emission reductions; and create jobs.

Criteria and Process
The Eligibility Criteria and Evaluation Process was discussed at the December 20, 2022, CalRecycle Public meeting and subsequently approved by the Deputy Director. The Notice of Funds Available was published on CalRecycle’s website on February 9, 2023, and a notice was sent to interested parties.

Applications were due to CalRecycle on May 2, 2023, with a secondary due date of May 11, 2023, for authorizing documentation submission. CalRecycle received 69 applications requesting a total of $387,845,869.30. After the close of the application period, staff reviewed the applications for completeness and eligibility. As a result, 20 applications were disqualified for either submitting an incomplete application or having an ineligible project. Staff reviewed the remaining applications in accordance with the approved evaluation and scoring criteria.

Subsequently, 17 applications did not receive a passing score. The maximum grant award is $500,000 for in-vessel projects, $3,000,000 for stand-alone pre-processing projects, $10,000,000 for anaerobic/co-digestion and compost projects, and $13,000,000 for anaerobic/co-digestion and compost projects with a pre-processing project. Staff proposes to fund 23 of the 32 eligible applicants. If additional monies become available, staff recommends funding the remaining eligible applicants in rank order, as listed in Table 3. As a result of the projects recommended for award, 7.7 million tons of green and food material will be diverted from landfills, a reduction of over 2 million MTCO2e in greenhouse gas emissions, and 114 jobs will be created.

† Information collected on this form is used in accordance with PG&E’s Privacy Policy. Page 1 of 2 The Privacy Policy is available at pge.com/privacy. Form No. 79-1209A-1, Attachment A-1 Advice 4366-G
Automated Documents, Preliminary Statement, Part A January 2021 Utility will provide the Company with a report that provides a Preliminary Engineering Study ("PES") requested by the Company for construction of necessary facilities as described below (the "Services") following completion of an Interconnection Screening Study for the same location and less than or equal to the maximum volume / flow rate that will be the basis for this PES.

Utility proposes to analyze the impact on its gas transmission system of receiving minimum, average and maximum,
respectively, thousand Standard cubic feet per day (MScfd) on a 1/24th ratable hourly basis of new supply at ____________________________________________________, California, on a ( ) Displacement and/or an ( ) Expansion Receipt Point Capacity basis and identify any system improvements necessary to accept this newsupply.

The cost estimate calculated by Utility will include, but not be limited to, land acquisition, site development, right-of-way, metering, gas quality, permitting, regulatory, environmental, unusual construction costs, and, if applicable, operating and maintenance costs for any facility improvements, accurate to +100% / -50% based on a site visit and route evaluation for the Company's project. The findings and estimate will not constitute a proposal by Utility. Utility will not have performed a specific site or route evaluation forthe Company's project in the development of this estimate. Other service costs associated with construction of the Interconnector's Facility that are not part of already offered services could include, but not be limited to, engineering, consulting, contracting, construction costs, and environmental studies.

Utility's construction costs continue to rise with increasing costs of labor and materials.

Since the PES is developed using average historical project cost data, it is highly likely that the actual construction costs for the Company's particular project will vary significantly from the PES. Utility urges the Company to retain the services of a thirdparty engineering construction firm or enter into a Detailed Engineering Study with Utility to develop a more accurate construction cost estimate for this specific project.

Because of the exclusions and limitations of this initial review, Utility does not recommend that the Company use the PES for any other purpose, including any substantive planning or other decisions regarding the cost or viability of its project, except to further evaluate Company's project via a Utility Detailed Engineering Study.

Any use by the Company is solely at its own risk and should factor in the above risks and limitations.

A report that summarizes the results of Utility's analyses, identifies the study parameters, assumptions, limitations and the estimated construction costs of any facility improvements, evaluates whether the Interconnection Screening Study identified

The estimated cost to perform the Services is $ ________________________________.

Utility will complete the analysis within ____________________________ business days after receipt and Utility posting ofpayment.

Payment in full of the estimated cost of the Services is required upon execution of an Attachment A1 to proceed with the analysis. The Company will be responsible forthe actual costs of the Services; to this end, an invoice or refund will be issued to the Company at the completion forany difference between the actual costs and this estimate.

CITY OF REDDING

REPORT TO THE CITY COUNCIL
Recommendation
Authorize and approve the following:
(1) Authorize the Public Works Director to request a change of scope from CalRecycle for the Redding Organics Diversion to Energy Operation project (Project), eliminating the originally proposed biogas pipeline injection station and constructing renewable energy generators at the Clear Creek Wastewater Treatment Plant; (2) Direct staff to solicit request for proposals to select and pre-purchase equipment to construct this project; and
(3) Authorize the City Manager or designee to approve and sign all pre-purchased equipment agreements and contracts, not to exceed the previously authorized budget.

Fiscal Impact
This Redding Organics Diversion to Energy Operation Project (Project) has been funded by a $10 million CalRecycle Co-Digestion Grant with $2.6 million from City of Redding (City) Wastewater Utility Funds for a total project estimate of $12.6 million. These funds were previously authorized and budgeted.

Alternative Action
The City Council (Council) may choose not to authorize this change of scope and provide an alternative direction to staff.

Re: 4.11(d)--Approve Alternative for Redding Organics Diversion to Energy Operation ProjectPage 2 Background/Analysis
On February 6, 2024, Council authorized the acceptance of a $10,000,000 CalRecycle grant for the design and construction of the project, a food waste receiving and biogas production facility at the City’s Clear Creek Wastewater Treatment Plant.

As part of the project, a gas pipeline injection station is required to inject conditioned methane gas into a Pacific Gas & Electric (PG&E) pipeline. The station would be designed and operated by PG&E. There are a series of six separate agreements from PG&E required for interconnection. These agreements include an Interconnection Screening Study with Confidentiality Agreement, Preliminary Engineering Study, Detailed Engineering Study, Balancing Agreement, Takeaway Agreements, and the Standard Renewable Gas Interconnection Agreement. During the course of the contracts review, staff, including the City Attorney, reviewed the PG&E required agreements and concluded that they were not in the best interest of the City and have recommended not to execute the agreements, therefore, not to construct the biogas pipeline injection station.

Staff has explored alternatives that meet the project and grant deliverables and have found that the same goal of the grant can be met with the installation of on-site biogas generators. This alternative will provide renewable energy by harnessing the biogas from the anaerobic digestion process and producing electricity, which could be connected directly to the Redding Electric Utility grid without involving any outside agency or contracts that could be unfavorable to the City.

Staff is requesting that Council authorize the Public Works Director to request a change of scope with CalRecycle to construct an alternative to the initially proposed project, achieving the intended scope, meeting the required timelines and funding projections.

Environmental Review
This activity is not a project as defined by the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA), and no action is required at this time. As the grant funded project moves forward the technical environmental studies will be conducted to support a CEQA compliance document.

CITY OF REDDING

REPORT TO THE CITY COUNCIL
Recommendation
Authorize and approve the following:
(1) Accept grant funding in the amount of $10,000,000 from CalRecycle for the design and construction of the Redding Organics Diversion to Energy Operation project, a food waste receiving and biogas production facility at the City of Redding (City) Clear Creek Wastewater Treatment Plant;
(2) Adopt Resolution approving and adopting the 26th Amendment to Budget Resolution No. 2023-060 appropriating $10,000,000 in state grant funds and $2,600,000 in City Wastewater Department funds for the project; and
(3) Authorize the Public Works Director to sign the required documents with Pacific Gas and Electric Company for the design and construction of a biogas Pipeline Injection Station.

Fiscal Impact
The Redding Organics Diversion to Energy Operation (RODEO) project's total cost is estimated to be $12,600,000 and will be funded by CalRecycle CoDigestion grant funding and the City of Redding’s (City) Wastewater Utility fund. The CalRecycle grant will provide $10,000,000 towards the project while Wastewater Utility provides $2,600,000 from their reserve cash balance. Though funding for the construction of this facility was not previously budgeted, the Wastewater Utility has adequate reserve funding to cover costs exceeding the amount provided by grant funding.

Alternative Action
The City Council may decline to accept this grant funding. By doing so, this project will not be constructed and CalRecycle may allocate these funds to another agency. The Solid Waste Utility will continue to find alternatives for disposing of food waste and other organics, as required by California Senate Bill 1383 and other legislative requirements, mandating the diversion of organics from landfills.

Re: 4.11(h)--Accept CalRecycle Grant Funding for the (RODEO) and adopt Budget Reso Page 2 Background/Analysis
Recent State legislative changes regarding greenhouse gas emissions and the disposal of organic waste (California Senate Bill (SB) 1383, California Assembly Bill (AB) 32, AB 1826, AB 876, AB 341, and AB 1594) mandate that landfills no longer accept organic wastes. SB 1383 codified California's commitments to reduce greenhouse gas emissions and air pollution statewide.

Methane gas emissions from landfills are being targeted to reduce California’s Greenhouse Gas emissions. Currently, staff has secured the capacity for disposal of source-separated organic food waste material at the closest commercial organics processing facility in Oroville, CA. This material is planned to be trucked to the facility by City Solid Waste staff and processed at a current rate of $84/ton increasing to $95/ton in 2025 with an estimated annual cost of $74,000.

This cost doesn’t include staff or trucking costs. This ongoing cost will continue to increase annually as capacity becomes less available. As a result, staff has identified the RODEO project that leverages existing City infrastructure and will eliminate the need for Solid Waste to transport organics out of the area and reduce its processing fees.

The RODEO project would construct a food waste receiving station at the Clear Creek Wastewater Treatment Plant to accept organics into the existing anaerobic digestion process and biogas conditioning system to produce methane gas which will be sold to Pacific Gas and Electric (PG&E) via a Pipeline Injection Station. This Project helps meet the requirements of SB 1383 by diverting food waste from landfills, and will also produce methane gas, which will be captured and used for other beneficial purposes. In addition, it is anticipated that the project will generate renewable energy credits for the City.

A feasibility study was conducted with PG&E to determine if current PG&E infrastructure would be adequate to accept the methane gas produced by the RODEO project. PG&E determined that the project is feasible and it has been cleared by PG&E for further design. A contract with PG&E for preliminary engineering of a methane gas Pipeline Injection Station would need to be executed for an initial amount of $50,000. As the project development process continues, the contract with PG&E will need to be amended to provide additional funding for the construction of the Pipeline Injection Station, estimated at approximately $3,500,000.

On January 18, 2022, the City Council adopted Resolution No. 2022-001 authorizing the submission of applications for all California Department of Resources Recycling and Recovery (CalRecycle) grants for which the City is eligible through January 18, 2027. The Resolution also authorized the City Manager, or designee, to execute in the name of the City all grant documents, applications, agreements, amendments, and requests for payment, necessary to secure grant funds and implement the approved grant project.

In May 2023, the Solid Waste and Wastewater utilities hired a consultant to apply for a competitive grant from CalRecycle’s Organics Grant Program. The RODEO project was submitted for grant funding. These grant funds would cover project design and construction costs. On December 14, 2023, CalRecycle notified the City that the grant request was approved for the maximum award amount of $10,000,000.

Staff recommends the addition of $2,600,000 of wastewater reserve funds to the FY2023-24 capital budget to complete the Project.

Background and Findings
Statutory Authority
Public Resources Code section 42995 et seq., added to statute by the enactment of SB 862 (Statutes of 2014, Chapter 36) and amended by SB 155 (Statutes of 2021, Chapter 258), authorizes CalRecycle to administer a grant program to provide financial assistance to reduce the emissions of greenhouse gases (GHG) by promoting in-state development of infrastructure, food waste prevention, or other projects to reduce organic waste or process organic and other recyclable materials into new, value-added products.

Program Background
This Program is part of California Climate Investments, a statewide program that puts billions of Cap-and-Trade dollars to work reducing GHG emissions, strengthening the economy, and improving public health and the environment. At least 35 percent of California Climate Investments must benefit disadvantaged communities, low-income communities, and lowincome households, collectively known as priority populations.

APPROVED
Packet Pg. 546 Attachment: Previous Staff Report - 4.11d alternative renewal energy generators option (9.11(g)--Authorize updated project cost for Redding

This Program provides funds to support expansion of the waste management infrastructure, particularly for new or expanded organics infrastructure such as composting and digestion facilities, to achieve greenhouse gas reductions. These investments will result in reduced methane emissions from landfills; benefit priority populations by upgrading existing facilities and, where warranted, establish new facilities; result in air and water quality benefits in addition to greenhouse gas (GHG) emission reductions; and create jobs.

Criteria and Process
The Eligibility Criteria and Evaluation Process was discussed at the December 20, 2022, CalRecycle Public meeting and subsequently approved by the Deputy Director. The Notice of Funds Available was published on CalRecycle’s website on February 9, 2023, and a notice was sent to interested parties.

Applications were due to CalRecycle on May 2, 2023, with a secondary due date of May 11, 2023, for authorizing documentation submission. CalRecycle received 69 applications requesting a total of $387,845,869.30. After the close of the application period, staff reviewed the applications for completeness and eligibility. As a result, 20 applications were disqualified for either submitting an incomplete application or having an ineligible project. Staff reviewed the remaining applications in accordance with the approved evaluation and scoring criteria.

Subsequently, 17 applications did not receive a passing score. The maximum grant award is $500,000 for in-vessel projects, $3,000,000 for stand-alone pre-processing projects, $10,000,000 for anaerobic/co-digestion and compost projects, and $13,000,000 for anaerobic/co-digestion and compost projects with a pre-processing project. Staff proposes to fund 23 of the 32 eligible applicants. If additional monies become available, staff recommends funding the remaining eligible applicants in rank order, as listed in Table 3. As a result of the projects recommended for award, 7.7 million tons of green and food material will be diverted from landfills, a reduction of over 2 million MTCO2e in greenhouse gas emissions, and 114 jobs will be created.

† Information collected on this form is used in accordance with PG&E’s Privacy Policy. Page 1 of 2 The Privacy Policy is available at pge.com/privacy. Form No. 79-1209A-1, Attachment A-1 Advice 4366-G
Automated Documents, Preliminary Statement, Part A January 2021 Utility will provide the Company with a report that provides a Preliminary Engineering Study ("PES") requested by the Company for construction of necessary facilities as described below (the "Services") following completion of an Interconnection Screening Study for the same location and less than or equal to the maximum volume / flow rate that will be the basis for this PES.

Utility proposes to analyze the impact on its gas transmission system of receiving minimum, average and maximum,
respectively, thousand Standard cubic feet per day (MScfd) on a 1/24th ratable hourly basis of new supply at ____________________________________________________, California, on a ( ) Displacement and/or an ( ) Expansion Receipt Point Capacity basis and identify any system improvements necessary to accept this newsupply.

The cost estimate calculated by Utility will include, but not be limited to, land acquisition, site development, right-of-way, metering, gas quality, permitting, regulatory, environmental, unusual construction costs, and, if applicable, operating and maintenance costs for any facility improvements, accurate to +100% / -50% based on a site visit and route evaluation for the Company's project. The findings and estimate will not constitute a proposal by Utility. Utility will not have performed a specific site or route evaluation forthe Company's project in the development of this estimate. Other service costs associated with construction of the Interconnector's Facility that are not part of already offered services could include, but not be limited to, engineering, consulting, contracting, construction costs, and environmental studies.

Utility's construction costs continue to rise with increasing costs of labor and materials.

Since the PES is developed using average historical project cost data, it is highly likely that the actual construction costs for the Company's particular project will vary significantly from the PES. Utility urges the Company to retain the services of a thirdparty engineering construction firm or enter into a Detailed Engineering Study with Utility to develop a more accurate construction cost estimate for this specific project.

Because of the exclusions and limitations of this initial review, Utility does not recommend that the Company use the PES for any other purpose, including any substantive planning or other decisions regarding the cost or viability of its project, except to further evaluate Company's project via a Utility Detailed Engineering Study.

Any use by the Company is solely at its own risk and should factor in the above risks and limitations.

A report that summarizes the results of Utility's analyses, identifies the study parameters, assumptions, limitations and the estimated construction costs of any facility improvements, evaluates whether the Interconnection Screening Study identified

CITY OF REDDING

REPORT TO THE CITY COUNCIL
Recommendation
Authorize and approve the following actions relative to Request for Proposals No. 5596 for selection of a digester biogas conditioning and combined heat and power generator system for the City of Redding’s Clear Creek Wastewater Treatment Plant:
(1) Award to Kraft Energy Systems, a division of Kraft Power Corporation (Kraft); (2) Authorize the City Manager, or designee, to execute the Goods Purchase and Service Agreement with Kraft, in an amount not to exceed $3,970,084; and (3) Authorize the City Manager, or designee, to approve change orders to the agreement up to $100,000.

Fiscal Impact
Funding for this Goods Purchase and Service Agreement (Agreement) in the amount of approximately $4 million will come from previously budgeted CalRecycle grant funding. In February 2024, City Council (Council) accepted the CalRecycle grant funding in the amount of $10 million for the design and construction of the Redding Organics Diversion to Energy Operation (RODEO) project. Public Works anticipates the entire RODEO project to cost approximately $12.6 million. The required funding in excess of the CalRecycle grant ($2.6 million) has been budgeted within the Wastewater Utility Capital budget for the 2025-26 Fiscal Year.

Alternative Action
The Council may choose not to award Request for Proposals No. 5596 or authorize the Goods Purchase and Services Agreement to be executed at this time. By doing this, the RODEO project will not be constructed and the grant funding may be returned to CalRecycle. In addition, the Solid Waste Utility will need to continue to find alternatives for disposing of food waste and other organics, as required by California Senate Bill 1383 and other legislative requirements, mandating the diversion of organics from landfills.

Re: 4.11(a)--Award RFP 5596 and Authorize Execution of Agreement Page 2 Background/Analysis
In February 2024, Council authorized the acceptance of a $10 million CalRecycle grant for the design and construction of a project - a food waste receiving and biogas production facility at the City of Redding’s (City) Clear Creek Wastewater Treatment Plant (CCWTP). In December 2024, the Council authorized a change of scope for the project to construct biogas-fueled generators in lieu of methane pipeline injection. To proceed with the project, the City then solicited proposals from qualified equipment manufacturers and suppliers.

The City received four proposals to the solicitation. The proposals were reviewed by the selection panel which was made up of Public Works and CCWTP staff, as well as our consultant Water Works Engineers (WWE). The proposals were evaluated on the following factors:
manufacturer’s experience and references, proposed system operational complexity, required ancillary systems and supporting utilities, system layout and configuration, proposed submittal and equipment delivery schedule, exceptions identified in the Request for Proposal and technical specification requirements, maintenance requirements and availability of spare parts and service, and the total system cost. Applying these criteria to each of the proposals, the selection panel determined that Kraft Energy Systems, a subsidiary of Kraft Power Corporation, is the best candidate to provide the equipment for this project.

Once the agreement with Kraft Power Corporation is executed and submittal review starts, staff will coordinate with WWE to complete the overall site layout and design for the system. The City anticipates advertising the project for construction in late Summer 2026 with construction beginning in Fall 2026, and facility start-up in early 2028.

Environmental Review
This activity is not a project as defined by California Environmental Quality ACT (CEQA), and no action is required at this time. As the grant funded project moves forward, the technical environmental studies will be conducted to support a CEQA compliance document.

CITY OF REDDING

REPORT TO THE CITY COUNCIL
Recommendation
Authorize and approve the following:
(1) Accept grant funding in the amount of $10,000,000 from CalRecycle for the design and construction of the Redding Organics Diversion to Energy Operation project, a food waste receiving and biogas production facility at the City of Redding (City) Clear Creek Wastewater Treatment Plant;
(2) Adopt Resolution approving and adopting the 26th Amendment to Budget Resolution No. 2023-060 appropriating $10,000,000 in state grant funds and $2,600,000 in City Wastewater Department funds for the project; and
(3) Authorize the Public Works Director to sign the required documents with Pacific Gas and Electric Company for the design and construction of a biogas Pipeline Injection Station.

Fiscal Impact
The Redding Organics Diversion to Energy Operation (RODEO) project's total cost is estimated to be $12,600,000 and will be funded by CalRecycle CoDigestion grant funding and the City of Redding’s (City) Wastewater Utility fund. The CalRecycle grant will provide $10,000,000 towards the project while Wastewater Utility provides $2,600,000 from their reserve cash balance. Though funding for the construction of this facility was not previously budgeted, the Wastewater Utility has adequate reserve funding to cover costs exceeding the amount provided by grant funding.

Alternative Action
The City Council may decline to accept this grant funding. By doing so, this project will not be constructed and CalRecycle may allocate these funds to another agency. The Solid Waste Utility will continue to find alternatives for disposing of food waste and other organics, as required by California Senate Bill 1383 and other legislative requirements, mandating the diversion of organics from landfills.

Re: 4.11(h)--Accept CalRecycle Grant Funding for the (RODEO) and adopt Budget Reso Page 2 Background/Analysis
Recent State legislative changes regarding greenhouse gas emissions and the disposal of organic waste (California Senate Bill (SB) 1383, California Assembly Bill (AB) 32, AB 1826, AB 876, AB 341, and AB 1594) mandate that landfills no longer accept organic wastes. SB 1383 codified California's commitments to reduce greenhouse gas emissions and air pollution statewide.

Methane gas emissions from landfills are being targeted to reduce California’s Greenhouse Gas emissions. Currently, staff has secured the capacity for disposal of source-separated organic food waste material at the closest commercial organics processing facility in Oroville, CA. This material is planned to be trucked to the facility by City Solid Waste staff and processed at a current rate of $84/ton increasing to $95/ton in 2025 with an estimated annual cost of $74,000.

This cost doesn’t include staff or trucking costs. This ongoing cost will continue to increase annually as capacity becomes less available. As a result, staff has identified the RODEO project that leverages existing City infrastructure and will eliminate the need for Solid Waste to transport organics out of the area and reduce its processing fees.

The RODEO project would construct a food waste receiving station at the Clear Creek Wastewater Treatment Plant to accept organics into the existing anaerobic digestion process and biogas conditioning system to produce methane gas which will be sold to Pacific Gas and Electric (PG&E) via a Pipeline Injection Station. This Project helps meet the requirements of SB 1383 by diverting food waste from landfills, and will also produce methane gas, which will be captured and used for other beneficial purposes. In addition, it is anticipated that the project will generate renewable energy credits for the City.

A feasibility study was conducted with PG&E to determine if current PG&E infrastructure would be adequate to accept the methane gas produced by the RODEO project. PG&E determined that the project is feasible and it has been cleared by PG&E for further design. A contract with PG&E for preliminary engineering of a methane gas Pipeline Injection Station would need to be executed for an initial amount of $50,000. As the project development process continues, the contract with PG&E will need to be amended to provide additional funding for the construction of the Pipeline Injection Station, estimated at approximately $3,500,000.

On January 18, 2022, the City Council adopted Resolution No. 2022-001 authorizing the submission of applications for all California Department of Resources Recycling and Recovery (CalRecycle) grants for which the City is eligible through January 18, 2027. The Resolution also authorized the City Manager, or designee, to execute in the name of the City all grant documents, applications, agreements, amendments, and requests for payment, necessary to secure grant funds and implement the approved grant project.

In May 2023, the Solid Waste and Wastewater utilities hired a consultant to apply for a competitive grant from CalRecycle’s Organics Grant Program. The RODEO project was submitted for grant funding. These grant funds would cover project design and construction costs. On December 14, 2023, CalRecycle notified the City that the grant request was approved for the maximum award amount of $10,000,000.

Staff recommends the addition of $2,600,000 of wastewater reserve funds to the FY2023-24 capital budget to complete the Project.

Funding acceptance is not a project as defined by the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA), and no further action is required at this time. Acceptance of the grant funding will allow the design and environmental technical studies to proceed for the Food Waste Receiving and Biogas Production Facility Project. CEQA compliance documentation would be presented to Council at, or prior to, award of the project.

Background and Findings
Statutory Authority
Public Resources Code section 42995 et seq., added to statute by the enactment of SB 862 (Statutes of 2014, Chapter 36) and amended by SB 155 (Statutes of 2021, Chapter 258), authorizes CalRecycle to administer a grant program to provide financial assistance to reduce the emissions of greenhouse gases (GHG) by promoting in-state development of infrastructure, food waste prevention, or other projects to reduce organic waste or process organic and other recyclable materials into new, value-added products.

Program Background
This Program is part of California Climate Investments, a statewide program that puts billions of Cap-and-Trade dollars to work reducing GHG emissions, strengthening the economy, and improving public health and the environment. At least 35 percent of California Climate Investments must benefit disadvantaged communities, low-income communities, and lowincome households, collectively known as priority populations.

This Program provides funds to support expansion of the waste management infrastructure, particularly for new or expanded organics infrastructure such as composting and digestion facilities, to achieve greenhouse gas reductions. These investments will result in reduced methane emissions from landfills; benefit priority populations by upgrading existing facilities and, where warranted, establish new facilities; result in air and water quality benefits in addition to greenhouse gas (GHG) emission reductions; and create jobs.

Criteria and Process
The Eligibility Criteria and Evaluation Process was discussed at the December 20, 2022, CalRecycle Public meeting and subsequently approved by the Deputy Director. The Notice of Funds Available was published on CalRecycle’s website on February 9, 2023, and a notice was sent to interested parties.

Applications were due to CalRecycle on May 2, 2023, with a secondary due date of May 11, 2023, for authorizing documentation submission. CalRecycle received 69 applications requesting a total of $387,845,869.30. After the close of the application period, staff reviewed the applications for completeness and eligibility. As a result, 20 applications were disqualified for either submitting an incomplete application or having an ineligible project. Staff reviewed the remaining applications in accordance with the approved evaluation and scoring criteria.

Subsequently, 17 applications did not receive a passing score. The maximum grant award is $500,000 for in-vessel projects, $3,000,000 for stand-alone pre-processing projects, $10,000,000 for anaerobic/co-digestion and compost projects, and $13,000,000 for anaerobic/co-digestion and compost projects with a pre-processing project. Staff proposes to fund 23 of the 32 eligible applicants. If additional monies become available, staff recommends funding the remaining eligible applicants in rank order, as listed in Table 3. As a result of the projects recommended for award, 7.7 million tons of green and food material will be diverted from landfills, a reduction of over 2 million MTCO2e in greenhouse gas emissions, and 114 jobs will be created.

† Information collected on this form is used in accordance with PG&E’s Privacy Policy. Page 1 of 2 The Privacy Policy is available at pge.com/privacy. Form No. 79-1209A-1, Attachment A-1 Advice 4366-G
Automated Documents, Preliminary Statement, Part A January 2021 Utility will provide the Company with a report that provides a Preliminary Engineering Study ("PES") requested by the Company for construction of necessary facilities as described below (the "Services") following completion of an Interconnection Screening Study for the same location and less than or equal to the maximum volume / flow rate that will be the basis for this PES.

Utility proposes to analyze the impact on its gas transmission system of receiving minimum, average and maximum,
respectively, thousand Standard cubic feet per day (MScfd) on a 1/24th ratable hourly basis of new supply at ____________________________________________________, California, on a ( ) Displacement and/or an ( ) Expansion Receipt Point Capacity basis and identify any system improvements necessary to accept this newsupply.

The cost estimate calculated by Utility will include, but not be limited to, land acquisition, site development, right-of-way, metering, gas quality, permitting, regulatory, environmental, unusual construction costs, and, if applicable, operating and maintenance costs for any facility improvements, accurate to +100% / -50% based on a site visit and route evaluation for the Company's project. The findings and estimate will not constitute a proposal by Utility. Utility will not have performed a specific site or route evaluation forthe Company's project in the development of this estimate. Other service costs associated with construction of the Interconnector's Facility that are not part of already offered services could include, but not be limited to, engineering, consulting, contracting, construction costs, and environmental studies.

Utility's construction costs continue to rise with increasing costs of labor and materials.

Since the PES is developed using average historical project cost data, it is highly likely that the actual construction costs for the Company's particular project will vary significantly from the PES. Utility urges the Company to retain the services of a thirdparty engineering construction firm or enter into a Detailed Engineering Study with Utility to develop a more accurate construction cost estimate for this specific project.

Because of the exclusions and limitations of this initial review, Utility does not recommend that the Company use the PES for any other purpose, including any substantive planning or other decisions regarding the cost or viability of its project, except to further evaluate Company's project via a Utility Detailed Engineering Study.

Any use by the Company is solely at its own risk and should factor in the above risks and limitations.

A report that summarizes the results of Utility's analyses, identifies the study parameters, assumptions, limitations and the estimated construction costs of any facility improvements, evaluates whether the Interconnection Screening Study identified

The estimated cost to perform the Services is $ ________________________________.

Utility will complete the analysis within ____________________________ business days after receipt and Utility posting ofpayment.

Payment in full of the estimated cost of the Services is required upon execution of an Attachment A1 to proceed with the analysis. The Company will be responsible forthe actual costs of the Services; to this end, an invoice or refund will be issued to the Company at the completion forany difference between the actual costs and this estimate.

Re: 4.11(d)--Approve Alternative for Redding Organics Diversion to Energy Operation ProjectPage 2 Background/Analysis
On February 6, 2024, Council authorized the acceptance of a $10,000,000 CalRecycle grant for the design and construction of the project, a food waste receiving and biogas production facility at the City’s Clear Creek Wastewater Treatment Plant.

As part of the project, a gas pipeline injection station is required to inject conditioned methane gas into a Pacific Gas & Electric (PG&E) pipeline. The station would be designed and operated by PG&E. There are a series of six separate agreements from PG&E required for interconnection. These agreements include an Interconnection Screening Study with Confidentiality Agreement, Preliminary Engineering Study, Detailed Engineering Study, Balancing Agreement, Takeaway Agreements, and the Standard Renewable Gas Interconnection Agreement. During the course of the contracts review, staff, including the City Attorney, reviewed the PG&E required agreements and concluded that they were not in the best interest of the City and have recommended not to execute the agreements, therefore, not to construct the biogas pipeline injection station.

Staff has explored alternatives that meet the project and grant deliverables and have found that the same goal of the grant can be met with the installation of on-site biogas generators. This alternative will provide renewable energy by harnessing the biogas from the anaerobic digestion process and producing electricity, which could be connected directly to the Redding Electric Utility grid without involving any outside agency or contracts that could be unfavorable to the City.

Staff is requesting that Council authorize the Public Works Director to request a change of scope with CalRecycle to construct an alternative to the initially proposed project, achieving the intended scope, meeting the required timelines and funding projections.

Environmental Review
This activity is not a project as defined by the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA), and no action is required at this time. As the grant funded project moves forward the technical environmental studies will be conducted to support a CEQA compliance document.

CITY OF REDDING

REPORT TO THE CITY COUNCIL
Recommendation
Authorize and approve the following:
(1) Accept grant funding in the amount of $10,000,000 from CalRecycle for the design and construction of the Redding Organics Diversion to Energy Operation project, a food waste receiving and biogas production facility at the City of Redding (City) Clear Creek Wastewater Treatment Plant;
(2) Adopt Resolution approving and adopting the 26th Amendment to Budget Resolution No. 2023-060 appropriating $10,000,000 in state grant funds and $2,600,000 in City Wastewater Department funds for the project; and
(3) Authorize the Public Works Director to sign the required documents with Pacific Gas and Electric Company for the design and construction of a biogas Pipeline Injection Station.

Fiscal Impact
The Redding Organics Diversion to Energy Operation (RODEO) project's total cost is estimated to be $12,600,000 and will be funded by CalRecycle CoDigestion grant funding and the City of Redding’s (City) Wastewater Utility fund. The CalRecycle grant will provide $10,000,000 towards the project while Wastewater Utility provides $2,600,000 from their reserve cash balance. Though funding for the construction of this facility was not previously budgeted, the Wastewater Utility has adequate reserve funding to cover costs exceeding the amount provided by grant funding.

Alternative Action
The City Council may decline to accept this grant funding. By doing so, this project will not be constructed and CalRecycle may allocate these funds to another agency. The Solid Waste Utility will continue to find alternatives for disposing of food waste and other organics, as required by California Senate Bill 1383 and other legislative requirements, mandating the diversion of organics from landfills.

Re: 4.11(h)--Accept CalRecycle Grant Funding for the (RODEO) and adopt Budget Reso Page 2 Background/Analysis
Recent State legislative changes regarding greenhouse gas emissions and the disposal of organic waste (California Senate Bill (SB) 1383, California Assembly Bill (AB) 32, AB 1826, AB 876, AB 341, and AB 1594) mandate that landfills no longer accept organic wastes. SB 1383 codified California's commitments to reduce greenhouse gas emissions and air pollution statewide.

Methane gas emissions from landfills are being targeted to reduce California’s Greenhouse Gas emissions. Currently, staff has secured the capacity for disposal of source-separated organic food waste material at the closest commercial organics processing facility in Oroville, CA. This material is planned to be trucked to the facility by City Solid Waste staff and processed at a current rate of $84/ton increasing to $95/ton in 2025 with an estimated annual cost of $74,000.

This cost doesn’t include staff or trucking costs. This ongoing cost will continue to increase annually as capacity becomes less available. As a result, staff has identified the RODEO project that leverages existing City infrastructure and will eliminate the need for Solid Waste to transport organics out of the area and reduce its processing fees.

The RODEO project would construct a food waste receiving station at the Clear Creek Wastewater Treatment Plant to accept organics into the existing anaerobic digestion process and biogas conditioning system to produce methane gas which will be sold to Pacific Gas and Electric (PG&E) via a Pipeline Injection Station. This Project helps meet the requirements of SB 1383 by diverting food waste from landfills, and will also produce methane gas, which will be captured and used for other beneficial purposes. In addition, it is anticipated that the project will generate renewable energy credits for the City.

A feasibility study was conducted with PG&E to determine if current PG&E infrastructure would be adequate to accept the methane gas produced by the RODEO project. PG&E determined that the project is feasible and it has been cleared by PG&E for further design. A contract with PG&E for preliminary engineering of a methane gas Pipeline Injection Station would need to be executed for an initial amount of $50,000. As the project development process continues, the contract with PG&E will need to be amended to provide additional funding for the construction of the Pipeline Injection Station, estimated at approximately $3,500,000.

On January 18, 2022, the City Council adopted Resolution No. 2022-001 authorizing the submission of applications for all California Department of Resources Recycling and Recovery (CalRecycle) grants for which the City is eligible through January 18, 2027. The Resolution also authorized the City Manager, or designee, to execute in the name of the City all grant documents, applications, agreements, amendments, and requests for payment, necessary to secure grant funds and implement the approved grant project.

In May 2023, the Solid Waste and Wastewater utilities hired a consultant to apply for a competitive grant from CalRecycle’s Organics Grant Program. The RODEO project was submitted for grant funding. These grant funds would cover project design and construction costs. On December 14, 2023, CalRecycle notified the City that the grant request was approved for the maximum award amount of $10,000,000.

Staff recommends the addition of $2,600,000 of wastewater reserve funds to the FY2023-24 capital budget to complete the Project.

Background and Findings
Statutory Authority
Public Resources Code section 42995 et seq., added to statute by the enactment of SB 862 (Statutes of 2014, Chapter 36) and amended by SB 155 (Statutes of 2021, Chapter 258), authorizes CalRecycle to administer a grant program to provide financial assistance to reduce the emissions of greenhouse gases (GHG) by promoting in-state development of infrastructure, food waste prevention, or other projects to reduce organic waste or process organic and other recyclable materials into new, value-added products.

Program Background
This Program is part of California Climate Investments, a statewide program that puts billions of Cap-and-Trade dollars to work reducing GHG emissions, strengthening the economy, and improving public health and the environment. At least 35 percent of California Climate Investments must benefit disadvantaged communities, low-income communities, and lowincome households, collectively known as priority populations.

APPROVED APPROVED
Packet Pg. 618 Attachment: Previous Staff Report - 4.11a - Award RFP 5596 Kraft Energy Systems CCWTP (9.11(g)--Authorize updated project cost for Redding

This Program provides funds to support expansion of the waste management infrastructure, particularly for new or expanded organics infrastructure such as composting and digestion facilities, to achieve greenhouse gas reductions. These investments will result in reduced methane emissions from landfills; benefit priority populations by upgrading existing facilities and, where warranted, establish new facilities; result in air and water quality benefits in addition to greenhouse gas (GHG) emission reductions; and create jobs.

Criteria and Process
The Eligibility Criteria and Evaluation Process was discussed at the December 20, 2022, CalRecycle Public meeting and subsequently approved by the Deputy Director. The Notice of Funds Available was published on CalRecycle’s website on February 9, 2023, and a notice was sent to interested parties.

Applications were due to CalRecycle on May 2, 2023, with a secondary due date of May 11, 2023, for authorizing documentation submission. CalRecycle received 69 applications requesting a total of $387,845,869.30. After the close of the application period, staff reviewed the applications for completeness and eligibility. As a result, 20 applications were disqualified for either submitting an incomplete application or having an ineligible project. Staff reviewed the remaining applications in accordance with the approved evaluation and scoring criteria.

Subsequently, 17 applications did not receive a passing score. The maximum grant award is $500,000 for in-vessel projects, $3,000,000 for stand-alone pre-processing projects, $10,000,000 for anaerobic/co-digestion and compost projects, and $13,000,000 for anaerobic/co-digestion and compost projects with a pre-processing project. Staff proposes to fund 23 of the 32 eligible applicants. If additional monies become available, staff recommends funding the remaining eligible applicants in rank order, as listed in Table 3. As a result of the projects recommended for award, 7.7 million tons of green and food material will be diverted from landfills, a reduction of over 2 million MTCO2e in greenhouse gas emissions, and 114 jobs will be created.

ATTACHMENT A-1
† Information collected on this form is used in accordance with PG&E’s Privacy Policy. Page 1 of 2 The Privacy Policy is available at pge.com/privacy. Form No. 79-1209A-1, Attachment A-1 Advice 4366-G
Automated Documents, Preliminary Statement, Part A January 2021 Utility will provide the Company with a report that provides a Preliminary Engineering Study ("PES") requested by the Company for construction of necessary facilities as described below (the "Services") following completion of an Interconnection Screening Study for the same location and less than or equal to the maximum volume / flow rate that will be the basis for this PES.

Utility proposes to analyze the impact on its gas transmission system of receiving minimum, average and maximum,
respectively, thousand Standard cubic feet per day (MScfd) on a 1/24th ratable hourly basis of new supply at ____________________________________________________, California, on a ( ) Displacement and/or an ( ) Expansion Receipt Point Capacity basis and identify any system improvements necessary to accept this newsupply.

The cost estimate calculated by Utility will include, but not be limited to, land acquisition, site development, right-of-way, metering, gas quality, permitting, regulatory, environmental, unusual construction costs, and, if applicable, operating and maintenance costs for any facility improvements, accurate to +100% / -50% based on a site visit and route evaluation for the Company's project. The findings and estimate will not constitute a proposal by Utility. Utility will not have performed a specific site or route evaluation forthe Company's project in the development of this estimate. Other service costs associated with construction of the Interconnector's Facility that are not part of already offered services could include, but not be limited to, engineering, consulting, contracting, construction costs, and environmental studies.

Utility's construction costs continue to rise with increasing costs of labor and materials.

Since the PES is developed using average historical project cost data, it is highly likely that the actual construction costs for the Company's particular project will vary significantly from the PES. Utility urges the Company to retain the services of a thirdparty engineering construction firm or enter into a Detailed Engineering Study with Utility to develop a more accurate construction cost estimate for this specific project.

Because of the exclusions and limitations of this initial review, Utility does not recommend that the Company use the PES for any other purpose, including any substantive planning or other decisions regarding the cost or viability of its project, except to further evaluate Company's project via a Utility Detailed Engineering Study.

Any use by the Company is solely at its own risk and should factor in the above risks and limitations.

A report that summarizes the results of Utility's analyses, identifies the study parameters, assumptions, limitations and the estimated construction costs of any facility improvements, evaluates whether the Interconnection Screening Study identified

The estimated cost to perform the Services is $ ________________________________.

Utility will complete the analysis within ____________________________ business days after receipt and Utility posting ofpayment.

Payment in full of the estimated cost of the Services is required upon execution of an Attachment A1 to proceed with the analysis. The Company will be responsible forthe actual costs of the Services; to this end, an invoice or refund will be issued to the Company at the completion forany difference between the actual costs and this estimate.
