FOR: Water Subcommittee Meeting [February 28, 2024] TO: Honorable Water Subcommittee Members
APPROVAL: Stephen Dopudja, P.E., Interim Utilities Manager Toyasha Sebbag, Assistant to the City Manager
Rolf Ohlemitz, Rialto Water Services, General Manager
Request that the Water Subcommittee provide feedback on the City Council and Rialto Utility Authority Board entering into a not-to-exceed contract in the amount of $164,650 for 120Water to provide services in compliance with Federal Environmental Protection Agency’sLead and Copper Rule Revisions.
(ACTION)
BACKGROUND:

The Federal Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) published the Lead & Copper Rule Revisions (LCRR) better to protect communities from exposure to lead in drinking water and created new and revised obligations for community water systems. The LCRR requires systems to develop and submit (1) a comprehensive inventory of all service lines in their distribution system and (2) a replacement plan for any distribution system with unknown, lead, or galvanized service lines. Establishing an inventory of service line materials and identifying the location of any lead service lines is a key step in getting them replaced and protecting public health. The service line inventory, which includes both customer-owned and utility-owned portions of the service line, is the first step to eventually proving and certifying that our system is free of lead service lines. California utilities must build upon their utility service line inventories by characterizing customer-side service line material and submitting an updated combined inventory that adheres to the specifications of the EPA and Division of Drinking Water (DDW) by October 16, 2024.

ANALYSIS/DISCUSSION
On September 27, 2023, the Water Subcommittee heard a presentation from Rolf Ohlemitz, Rialto Water Services, General Manager about recommended actions for the Rialto Utility Authority (RUA) to comply with the LCRR by October 16, 2024. The recommendation was to enter into a contract with 120Water for $164,650 to complete the inventory.

Subsequently, on November 21, 2024, the Utilities Commission heard a similar presentation from Sohiel Sadighi, Veolia North American's General Manager, asking for authorization to place the item on the agenda for City Council consideration. The Utilities Commission unanimously voted to move the item forward to the City Council for approval.

Before placement of this item on the City Council Agenda, staff wanted to return to the Water Subcommittee to answer the following questions raised by the Water Subcommittee at its September 27, 2023, meeting. In addition, the initial contract amount requested of $$205,081.96 has been corrected to $164,650 due to a calculation error. Lastly, this item was pulled from the January 24, City of Rialto Printed on 2/21/2024Page 1 of 5

corrected to $164,650 due to a calculation error. Lastly, this item was pulled from the January 24, 2024, Water Subcommittee Meeting to allow for the city attorney to review the proposed contract submitted by 120water before this item was put before the Water Subcommittee for feedback.

Please see responses in bold to questions 1 - 10 below:

1. Are there lead pipes within our jurisdiction? If so, could you provide information on their locations?
No. The Rialto Utility Authority does not have any lead pipes in our system.

2. When conducting water sampling, is there evidence of lead contamination in the samples? No. In compliance with the California Water Board’s Lead and Cooper Rule, RWS routinely samples for lead in our system, and lead concentrations have not exceeded 15 parts per billion, nor have copper concentrations exceeded 1.3 parts per million in more than 10% of customer taps sampled.

3. In the event that lead is identified on the customer's side, who assumes liability for the replacement of pipes?
This is still influx and has not been finalized yet. The EPA stated this will be finalized and determined by or before 10/16/24.

4. Regarding the deadline for completing the inventory by 10/16/24, does this include schools, and if so, who will be responsible for repairs if they indicate financial constraints? Will the City take on the responsibility of seeking funding for them? Yes, the deadline includes schools. As the LCRR is written, schools are responsible for replacing their lead service lines and will be responsible for seeking funding for themselves.

5. What is the anticipated cost of creating the inventory due on 10/16/24? $165K. Staff is proposing to use 120water to provide (1) a comprehensive inventory of all service lines in RUA’s distribution system and (2) a replacement plan for any distribution system with unknown, lead, or galvanized service lines.

6. Mayor Robertson mentioned the possibility of funding. Could you please confirm the availability of funding for this initiative?
There is no funding for the inventory that is due on October 16, 2024. However, funding will be available for the replacement requirements (i.e., Biden Infrastructure).

7. If an inspection of a resident's property reveals galvanized pipes, will it be assumed that lead is present in those pipes?
No.

8. How was the solicitation for vendors conducted, and were local vendors specifically invited to participate?
RWS/Veolia sought out various vendors, presentations were provided, and 3 quotes were obtained. Local vendors were not solicited because RWS/Veolia could not locate any local vendors to facilitate the specialized work associated with the LCRR.

9. Under the Concession Agreement, is the responsibility for compliance with the Lead and City of Rialto Printed on 2/21/2024Page 2 of 5

11 File #: WS-24-1181, Version: 1, Agenda #:

9. Under the Concession Agreement, is the responsibility for compliance with the Lead and Copper Rule vested in the City/RUA or RWS?
This is a “Change in Law” activity outside the Concession Agreement's scope.

Therefore, it is the City/RUA's responsibility.

10. Can you provide information on the actions taken by other agencies in response to the Lead and Copper Rule revisions?
Performing in-house
· Redlands, City of
· West Valley Water District (WVWD)
Agencies Outsourcing
· Colton, City of
· Corona, City of
· Fontana Water Company - initially performing in-house; however, they have encountered roadblocks and have engaged 3rd party contractors/consultants for assistance.
· Garden Grove, City of - utilizing 120Water
RWS/Veolia confirmed that updates to the inventory after the 10/16/24 deadline are fluid:
municipalities can continue to update their inventory even after the deadline. RWS/Veolia advised that this is very beneficial as municipalities can continue investigating/verifying lines to ensure any replacement activities under LCRI (10 years to replace all unknowns after the LCRR deadline) are confirmed and substantiated.

FINANCIAL IMPACT
The financial framework employed by 120Water adheres to a conventional subscription-based model.

An annual subscription fee, set at a fixed rate, recurs yearly and grants access to the comprehensive 120Water platform and the dedicated services team. The program is designed to institute a consistent communication schedule with the designated City of Rialto team to steer the program toward successful outcomes. The ensuing table delineates the anticipated annual rates tailored to fulfill the specified program requirements and unit rates for elements where precise quantities remain undetermined. It is imperative to highlight that a collaborative discussion transpired between the involved parties and DDW, during which the unique needs and prerequisites of the City of Rialto were thoroughly deliberated and formalized. After this discussion and DDW validation, the estimates presented in the pricing proposal have been meticulously adjusted to align seamlessly with the operational nuances of the City of Rialto's system.

APPROVAL: Stephen Dopudja, P.E., Interim Utilities Manager Toyasha Sebbag, Assistant to the City Manager
Request that the Water Subcommittee Provide Feedback on Staff and Elected Appointments for Negotiations with the San Bernardino County Board of Supervisors Regarding Recharge and Operating Agreement to the Cactus Basins.
(ACTION)
BACKGROUND:

On June 13, 2023, the San Bernardino County Board of Supervisors, acting as the governing body of the San Bernardino County Flood Control District, approved a Joint Groundwater Recharge and Facilities Planning Agreement with the San Bernardino Valley Municipal Water District (San Bernardino Valley) for a 20-year term from June 27, 2023, through June 26, 2043, followed by 10 automatic one-year renewal terms. The Agreement includes the use of seven basins and channels, streams, and rivers within the region, in the general areas of San Bernardino and Yucaipa, including East Twin Basins, Lynwood Basins, Oak Glen Basins, Sweetwater Basins, Waterman Basins, Wildwood Basins, and Wilsons Basin (ATTACHMENT 1). The exact volume of recharged water varies with the source availability; these facilities have a combined recharge capacity of approximately 8,133 million gallons a year (assuming six months of continuous recharge). Between 2012 and 2019, these locations allowed for an additional 45,619 million gallons of water to be recharged for community use in dry periods.

Mentioned in the Joint Groundwater Recharge and Facilities Planning Agreement are the Cactus Basins located in Rialto. As stated in 5b. of the Agreement, “Atthis time, there will not be recharge in Cactus Basins...The County, Flood Control District, and San Bernardino Valley will continue to consider strategies and alternatives to address the risks, and if recharge were to occur, it would be subject to a separate agreement mutually agreed upon by the Parties...” (ATTACHMENT 2).

ANALYSIS/DISCUSSION
On February 7, 2024, staff received an email from San Bernardino Valley to participate in a cooperative meeting between two members of the San Bernardino County Board of Supervisors and the policymakers of San Bernardino Valley and the Rialto Basin Groundwater Council to develop a recharge/operating agreement for the Cactus Basins. The email requests that the Rialto Basin Groundwater Council submit the names and email of one elected official and one staff member from our agency to represent the Rialto Basin Groundwater Council during those meeting(s).

The Rialto Basin Groundwater Council (RBGC) was formed in February 2021 “for the purpose of coordinating, developing, and implementing groundwater management activities that individually or cumulatively address groundwater management in, and groundwater sustainability throughout, the City of Rialto Printed on 2/21/2024Page 1 of 2

RECOMMENDATION(S)
..Recommendation
Acting as the governing body of the San Bernardino County Flood Control District, approve the Joint Groundwater Recharge and Facilities Planning Agreement No. 23 -580 with the San Bernardino Valley Municipal Water District to establish a framework under whi ch flood control facilities may be evaluated for groundwater recharge purposes, for a 20-year term from June 27, 2023 through June 26, 2043, followed by 10 automatic one-year renewal terms. (Presenter: Brendon Biggs, Chief Flood Control Engineer, 387-7906) ..Body

COUNTY AND CHIEF EXECUTIVE OFFICER GOALS & OBJECTIVES
Pursue County Goals and Objectives by Working with Other Agencies and Stakeholders.

FINANCIAL IMPACT
Approval of this item will not result in the use of Discretionary General Funding (Net County Cost). The proposed Joint Groundwater Recharge and Facilities Planning Agreement (Agreement) with the San Bernardino Valley Municipal Water District ( San Bernardino Valley) does not commit the San Bernardino County Flood Control District ( District) to any expenditures, other than staff time, which will be reimbursed by San Bernardino Valley for contracted planned maintenance and/or construction activities performed by the District.

BACKGROUND INFORMATION
The District owns and operates a number of flood control facilities within San Bernardino Valley's operational boundaries. San Bernardino Valley seeks to construct certain recharge improvements to increase recharge of the underground aquifer(s) by spreading imported and recycled/reclaimed, and any other water supply that is not storm water, in District facilities, with the understanding that the primary purpose of District facilities is to maintain adequate flood protection for the safety and protection of the public.

The proposed Agreement establi shes the framework under which San Bernardino Valley has non-exclusive access to certain District facilities to construct, operate, and maintain improvements necessary to transport, discharge, spread, and store imported w ater for the purpose of groundwater recharge. The use of District facilities for groundwater recharge serves the District’s secondary mission of water conservation, while ensuring the District’s primary mission of protecting life and property from significant flood risks is not impacted.

17 Joint Groundwater Recharge and Facilities Planning Agreement with the San Bernardino Valley Municipal Water District
June 13, 2023

Item 87

The District and San Bernardino Valley have a long history of cooperation dating back to a non- financial agreement approved by the Board of Supervisors (Board) on September 25, 1972 (Item No. 27 ) (1972 Agreement), under which San Bernardino Valley may use certain District detention basins for groundwater recharge . Since the 1972 Agreement, the Board approved a non-financial Planning Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) with San Bernardino Valley on July 23, 2013 (Item No. 42) (2013 MOU), to outline the cooperative manner in which the District and San Bernardino Valley may identify and analyze the suitability of District facilities for recharge purposes. The 1972 Agreement has no expiration date and the 2013 MOU expires on July 23, 2023. The District and San Bernardino Valley now seek to enter into the recommended Agreement to terminate and supersede the 1972 Agreement and the 2013 MOU to provide one updated, consolidated agreement under which groundwater recharge in District facilities shall be evaluated and managed.

The proposed Agreement include s the use of seven basins and channels, streams, and rivers within the region, in the general areas of San Bernardino and Yucaipa, including East Twin Basins, Lynwood Basins, Oak Glen Basins , Sweetwater Basins, Waterman Basins, Wildwood Basins, Wilsons Basin, and identified natural and improved channels, streams, and rivers.

While the exact volume of recharge water varies with the source availability, these facilities have a combined recharge capacity of up to 70 cubic feet per second, or approximately 8,133 million gallons a year (assuming six months of continuous recharge). Between 2012 and 2019, these locations allowed for an additional 45,619 million gallons of water to be recharged for community use in dry periods, like the ones experienced in recent years.

In line with the cooperative effort, the Agreement establishes a framework for operational dialogue through a Joint Implementation Committee , which would include staff from both agencies, and a commitment to joint project planning, permitting, and funding as appropriate for each particular facility or project. This structure allows for communication regarding improvement and operational plans in a manner that does not interfere with flood control activities, while maximizing the potential for groundwater replenishment.

The Agreement is consistent with the County and the Chief Executive Officer's goal and objective of working with other agencies. Approval of the Agreement will serve County residents by maximizing t he potential use of flood control facilities for groundwater recharge and optimizing water resources in the County.

As the result of negotiations between the parties, t he Agreement has a 20 -year term, followed by 10, automatic one -year extensions. San Ber nardino Valley may terminate the use of a District facility upon 30 days’ written notice to the District . Either party may terminate th e Agreement prior to its expiration or extension renewal date for cause, provided that it has issued a 60-day written notice and opportunity to cure to the other party prior to termination.

Because this Agreement does not authorize nor guarantee any specific project, the Agreement itself does not constitute a project subject to the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) (Public Resources Code §§ 21000 et seq .). T he parties will comply with CEQA prior to approving any specific project pursuant to the Agreement.

FOR: Water Subcommittee Meeting [February 28, 2024] TO: Honorable Water Subcommittee Members
APPROVAL: Stephen Dopudja, P.E., Interim Utilities Manager Toyasha Sebbag, Assistant to the City Manager
Request that the Water Subcommittee Provide Feedback on the City Paving Moratorium's Impact on Septic Sewer Conversions and Water Meter Lateral Repairs. (ACTION)
BACKGROUND:

On May 9, 2017, the City of Rialto passed Ordinance No. 1589 (ATTACHMENT 1), which enacted a street cut moratorium on newly improved streets. The moratorium states that for 5 years after road construction, the City won't allow any unnecessary cuts in the street. Also, for 3 years after slurry sealing, no unnecessary street cuts are allowed.

ANALYSIS/DISCUSSION
To clarify, Ordinance No. 1589 outlines certain situations where the paving moratorium on newly improved streets can be lifted. These exceptions are determined by the Director of Public Works/City Engineer and include:

1. Imminent endangerment of life or property.

2. Interruption of essential utility service.

3. Mandated work by city, state, or federal law.

4. Service for new development or new customers where no other reasonable means of providing service exists.

Considering this, staff seeks clarification on whether conversions from septic sewer systems to public sewers and repairs to water meter laterals should also be included as exceptions to the paving moratorium.

RECOMMENDATION:

Request that the Water Subcommittee Provide Feedback on the City Paving Moratorium's Impact on Septic Sewer Conversions and Water Meter Lateral Repairs.

BACKGROUND:

On October 10, 2023, the City Council/Rialto Utility Authority Board authorized staff to apply for the Sonoran Institute and the Babbitt Center for Land and Water Policy’sCalifornia Growing Water Smart Technical Assistance Grant for the project, developing a Model Water Efficient Landscape Ordinance (MWELO) Guideline Handbook for public and city use.

From June 12th through 14th, 2023, the Sonoran Institute, Babbitt Center for Land and Water Policy, Civic Well, and Water Education for Latino Leaders (WELL) conducted a California Growing Water Smart Workshop. The City of Rialto applied for and received competitive grant funding for ten people to participate in the 3-day workshop. There was no funding match required to participate in the workshop. Staff and elected officials from the City of Rialto (Rialto) and the cities of Baldwin Park, Indio, and El Monte attended.

Rialto Workgroup Attendees Included:

1. Mayor Deborah Robertson

2. Councilmember Rafael Trujillo

3. Cynthia Alvarado, Director of Parks, Recreation & Community Services

4. Mike Orona, Deputy Director of Maintenance and Facilities

5. Vince Giron, Engineering Manager

6. Toyasha Sebbag, Assistant to the City Manager

7. Siri Champion, Senior Planner

8. Micaiah Harris, Mayor’s Intern

10. Genesis Ibrahim-Balogun, Mayor’s Intern

ANALYSIS/DISCUSSION
On November 17, 2023, staff received notice that the project submitted to the Sonoran Institute was awarded $10,000 (ATTACHMENT 1). The project identified in the grant is to support hiring a consultant to create a user-friendly document for residents and developers who must adhere to the state’sMWELO (ATTACHMENT 2). This includes providing clear visuals, concise and informative content, staff training, and introducing standards for permeable ground cover.

required to accept the grant.

The money awarded to the city is insufficient to develop a comprehensive MWELO Guideline Handbook for public and city use; therefore, a phased approach to developing MWELO guidelines will be used. Specifically, grant funds will be utilized to hire a consultant that the Mayor Interns will work with to develop internal policies on city facilities for medians that meet the MWELO guidelines, including interviewing the Mayor, Mayor Pro Tem, and Council Members to receive input on the landscape median plant pallets.

After receiving the City’sW-9 and ACH forms, the Sonoran Institute will forward the contract for the City Attorney's review.

RECOMMENDATION:

Request that the Water Subcommittee Provide Feedback on the Growing Water Smart Technical Assistance Grant funds of $10,000.

Dear Ms. Sebbag,

Thank you for submitting the City of Rialto application for Growing Water Smart Technical Assistance. We are pleased to announce that your project has been awarded technical assistance support of up to $10,000.

The project you identified—developing a MWELO Guideline Handbook for public and city use— is a valuable step toward achieving water conservation, efficiency, and resiliency goals for the City of Rialto.

This support is provided in partnership between the Sonoran Institute and the Babbitt Center for Land and Water Policy, a center of the Lincoln Institute of Land Policy.

We will follow up with a draft grant agreement for your review in the coming weeks.

We are pleased to support this endeavor.

Respectfully,

Waverly Klaw

CITY OF RIALTO

GROWING WATER SMART TECHNICAL ASSISTANCE GRANT APPLICATION due Friday, October 20, 2023

Expectations of Recipients: Award recipients will sign a grant agreement, provide quarterly project status updates, and submit a final project report with outcomes, lessons learned, and progress photos.

PROJECT DESCRIPTION: describe your project, including how your project integrates land use and water to improve community resiliency. Describe how the project will lead to intended outcomes such as water savings, reduced flooding, or improved water quality. Explain how your project advances one or more goals in your Growing Water Smart Workshop action plan.

The primary objective of this grant proposal is to provide clear and visually appealing illustrations, diagrams, flowcharts, and photographs to support the City of Rialto’s Model Water Efficient Landscape Ordinance (MWELO) Guidelines.

The City’s current MWELO Guidelines need to be strengthened by integrating and implementing internal (for department staff representing the utilities, community development, engineering, and parks and recreation departments) and external (for developers, residents, businesses, and non- government organizations) customer support-driven guidelines that are easy-to-follow, promotes water-efficient landscaping practices, and a healthy tree canopy that provides sustainable carbon sequestration.

The project integrates land use and water resiliency by implementing the state’s MWELO in a way that will provide long-term sustainability to the City of Rialto by:
 Drafting a concise and informative handbook/document guidelines that are easily accessible online and understood by residents, developers, and city staff.  Conducting training sessions for staff to ensure the effective implementation of the guidelines.  Prioritizing a healthy tree canopy in areas that are viewed as more beneficial for tree resiliency than simply replacing turf with native/drought-tolerant landscape.  Developing a standard on permeable ground cover and examples of when this option should be considered as a priority over traditional ground cover currently listed in our guidelines for new development and/or parking lot locations. Guidelines will include permeable asphalt/mix and may include pavers, stones, and landscapes that will help with stormwater management.

The current MWELO referenced by Rialto departments is interpreted differently by each department and needs to be evaluated and re developed so that all city departments are interpreting the guidelines consistently . This includes ensuring that information given to developers, residents/businesses, and used internally for city-owned facilities is implemented consistently throughout the city with the use of visually appealing illustrations, diagrams, flowcharts, and photographs.

During the California Growing Water Smart Workshop, city staff participants outlined the goal to “Update the Water Efficient Landscape Ordinance.” After the workshop, staff met in accordance with the plan formulated during the workshop, with department staff and directors to obtain feedback on the city’s MWELO from those who did not participate in the workshop. After those meetings, it was determined that instead of updating the city’s MWELO, a more comprehensive objective is to provide clear and visually appealing illustrations, diagrams, flowcharts, and 89

photographs to support the City of Rialto’s Model Water Efficient Landscape Ordinance (MWELO) Guidelines that meets the need of internal and external customers . Since the workshop, staff that attended the workshop has held 7 meetings to ensure that once grant money became available, we developed a well -rounded proposal that would aid the city in meeting the goal outlined during the workshop.

The second goal identified during the workshop was to “ Develop Infrastructure to Increase Capacity to Manage and Utilize Stormwater.” Formulating MWELO Guidelines that meet the needs of guidelines given to developers, residents/businesses, and used internally for city-owned facilities will include an element for stormwater management by developing a standard for using permeable ground cover when practicable.

SERVICE PROVIDER: list the desired technical assistance provider/consultant and include the consultant’s scope of work and cost estimate, if available. If an RFP will be issued, describe any steps you took to design the project scope within the budget available.

After grant money is received, the City of Rialto will seek proposals from qualified consultants to provide professional services for developing MWELO Guidelines for use by developers, residents/businesses, and used internally for city-owned facilities . The proposal will request assistance in u nderstanding where each department houses its MWELO plans and how those plans are implemented to develop a systematic approach to how each department interprets and communicates those plans to developers, residents/businesses, and used inter nally for city- owned facilities. Next, the consultant will make recommendations for improvements in applying the city’s MWELO Guidelines consistently across departments and how those guidelines are communicated to internal and external customers . Lastly, the consultant will develop a cost proposal that can be used in applying for future grant funding by:
 Drafting a concise and informative handbook/document guidelines that are easily accessible online and understood by residents, developers, and city staff.  Conducting training sessions for staff to ensure the effective implementation of the guidelines.  Prioritizing a healthy tree canopy in areas that are viewed as more beneficial for tree resiliency than simply replacing turf with native/drought-tolerant landscape.  Developing a standard on permeable ground cover and examples of when this option should be considered as a priority over traditional ground cover currently listed in our guidelines for new development and/or parking lot locations. Guidelines will include permeable asphalt/mix and may include pavers, stones, and landscapes that will help with stormwater management.

City staff who participated in the California Growing Water Smart Workshop and who continue to meet since the workshop will interview at least 3 consultants to select the consult that develops a comprehensive strategy for conducting an internal analysis that best allocates $10,000 seed money and develop a process for the city to be in compliance with the state’s annual MWELO reporting.

Interviews and Proposals will be evaluated based on:
1) Relevant experience and expertise in implementing a city’s MWELO Guidelines. 2) Demonstration of ability to manage similar projects successfully. 3) Cost-effectiveness and budget considerations, i.e., getting the most bang for our buck. 4) Quality and clarity of the proposed scope of work being results originated and production of a final document.
90

PROJECT BUDGET: a detailed project budget. Please include amounts and sources of secured or pending matching funds.

The budget will be $10,000 with no match contribution from the city’s coffers. As detailed above, the budget for implementing a city's MWELO Guidelines with a $10,000 budget requires careful planning to allocate funds effectively. Therefore, the budget allocation will depend on proposals received from consult ants, consultant interviews, and consultants' ability to develop MWELO Guidelines for use by developers, residents/businesses, and used internally for city-owned facilities. The proposal will request assistance in understanding where each department houses its MWELO plans and how those plans are implemented to develop a systematic approach to how each department interprets and communicates those plans to developers, residents/businesses, and used internally for city-owned facilities.

Next, the consultant will make recommendations for improvements in applying the city’s MWELO Guidelines consistently across departments and how those guidelines are communicated to internal and external customers. Lastly, the consultant will develop a cost proposal that can be used in applying for future grant funding with an emphasis on building towards advancing the city’s MWELO Guidelines.

DELIVERABLES: describe the deliverable(s) and/or outcome(s) expected from the project. Also, describe how you might measure the benefits identified in the project description.

Prepare comprehensive documentation of the project, including financial reports, outcomes, and lessons learned. Deliver a final report summarizing the project's i mpact and making recommendations for future actions.

PROJECT MANAGEMENT: the names and contact information of 1-2 staff responsible for managing the project and overseeing the service provider. Specify whether the project is woman-led, as this may qualify for support from a Sonoran Institute partnership with Planet Women. Limit the final application to four pages.

The City of Rialto employee is a woman who has been part of the initial concept of the California Growing Water Workshop and is charged with leading the Project Management of the grant funds is: Toyasha Sebbag, Assistant to the City Manager, [email protected]

Covid-19 Arrearage & Payment Plan Status of Water & Sewer Accounts (Excludes Sewer only Accounts)

Observation
Prior to the Disconnection Moratorium
Prior to Covid-19 pandemic, average of 2,208 accounts were delinquent with the total amounts of $485,000.

During the Disconnection Moratorium
93 With the disconnection moratorium in place, number of delinquent account has increased by 28% to 2,864. Associated delinquent amounts increased disproportionately by 354% to $2.2M.

Since the end of Disconnection Moratorium
When comparing the highs during the moratorium against delinquencies on December 31, 2023; quantity of account has decreased by 8% to 2,365 and amount has decreased by 47% to $1.16M.

When comparing the delinquency average prior to Covid-19 against December 31, 2023; quantities of account are elevated by 7%. Total delinquent amount is elevated by 139%.

Trend
Quantity of delinquent account is only 7% higher than the average quantity prior to covid-19.

Delinquent amount has decreased by 47% ($1.04M) to $1.16M since the highest amount during the Covid-19.

What is RWS doing to assist the customer to pay down the delinquent amount? - Since the Moratorium, 2,738 payment arrangements have been created. Out of these payment arrangements, 534 customers received multiple arrangements or reinstatements. (many as 4-6 times to avoid disconnection) - Promoted LIHWAP program to the customers. This resulted in credit of over $281,000 for 197 customers.
- On behalf of the rate payers, RWS has requested and received an amount of $801,369 from State Water Resource Control Board Arrearage Program and applied as credit. - Requested additional amount of $1.8M through 2nd round of State Water Resource Control Board Arrearage Program. This request was submitted in December 2023 and is pending approval & payment from the state.
- Continue to offer new or reinstatement of payment arrangement to customers to avoid disconnection or reconnection.

Outlook
As expected, with the end of the moratorium, delinquencies decreased dramatically during the first several months. As many of the customers with manageable balance have paid their delinquencies, additional decrease will be slow and expected to take another 12 months to be at the level prior to Covid-19.

As expected, many of the customers with manageable balances have paid their delinquencies, which decreased the arrearage dramatically during the first several months. Additional decrease will be slow and expect to take another 12 months to be at the level prior to Covid-19, but when we receive $1.8M from the state (State Water Board Arrearage Program) to be applied as credit, delinquency is expected to be at the same level (or better) than prior to the Covid-19.

VI. WATER QUALITY COMPLAINTS
No complaints were received during this reporting period.

VII. OPERATIONS UPDATE
The overall operational strategy is to meet the daily water demand. The City of Rialto water system has six operational wells, one of which is owned by the County of San Bernardino and operated by Veolia; Oliver P. Roemer Treatment Plant (OPRTP), which is jointly owned by the City (25%) and West Valley Water District (WVWD); purchased water through the Baseline Feeder (BLF) system from San Bernardino Valley Municipal Water District (SBVMWD); and, if required to meet demand, additional water can be supplied by the City of San Bernardino (CSB) through the BLF for emergency supply only with no guarantee of actual delivery. Water produced from City Well 4A discharges into the BLF and its production is included in deliveries from that shared transmission line when City Well 4A is in service.
118
The overall pumping strategy is based on adjudicated rights, well availability, remediation requirements, and quality of source, cost to operate, and varying weather conditions. TDS effluent concentrations for the City of Rialto WWTP are taken into consideration when operating the facilities and water sources.

A. Operational Wells
Chino Well 2 was out of service for pump maintenance.

B. Valve Activity
On the basis of information collected in 2019, Veolia now has a baseline assessment of all valves and has initiated a new cycle of valve exercising. 76 valves were exercised for the month of November.
