PREPARED BY: Public Works Department
MEETING DATE: June 20, 2022
SUBJECT:
Caltrans Cooperative Implementation Agreement – Amendment RECOMMENDATION:
Adopt a Resolution to transfer $197,834.62 in Caltrans funds from the Coyote Point Trash Capture project to the Poplar at Golf Course Trash Capture project and reduce funding from the Solid Waste Fund by $197,834.62 appropriated to the Poplar at Golf Course Trash Capture project; approve Amendment No. 1 to the Cooperative Implementation Agreement with Caltrans to allow the use of remaining funds to cover scope in the Poplar at Golf Course Trash Capture project; and authorize the Public Works Director to execute the amendment in substantially the form presented.
BACKGROUND:
In June 2018, City Council approved the Cooperative Implementation Agreement (CIA) No. D43CIASM0001 with Caltrans to accept $2,123,000 in funding to implement the Poplar-Dore and Coyote Point Trash Capture projects. These projects treat stormwater runoff from both City streets and U.S. Highway 101, and Caltrans often contributes funding to such trash capture projects in order to further its own environmental and regulatory compliance objectives. The City appropriated a total of $650,000 to the Poplar-Dore project and $1,473,000 to the Coyote Point project. Both trash capture projects have been completed and the Coyote Point project has $197,834.62 of Caltrans funds remaining.
The Caltrans funds will lapse if not invoiced by the City prior to the end of fiscal year 2021-22. Caltrans communicated to the City that, once the remaining funds lapse, Caltrans will also lose those funds and will be unable to apply them to other projects. To utilize these remaining funds towards their trash reduction goals before they expire, Caltrans inquired with the City about additional trash capture funding opportunities.
As part of a separate project, the City Council approved the CIA No. D43CIASM0002 with Caltrans in June 2020 to receive $330,000 in funding for the Poplar at Golf Course Trash Capture project. The Poplar at Golf Course project is currently in design and the total project costs are estimated at approximately $1,450,000, which is more than the $330,000 contributed by Caltrans, and is being funded by the City’s Solid Waste Fund. The City uses the Solid Waste Fund as the principal funding source for trash capture projects given the nexus with both solid waste and stormwater compliance objectives.
In order to utilize the remaining Caltrans funds toward meeting its environmental objectives, Caltrans and City staff agreed that applying the remaining funds previously appropriated for the Coyote Point project may be used toward funding the Poplar at Golf Course Trash Capture project is appropriate for Caltrans’ purposes and would benefit the City by reducing its funding contribution to construct the trash capture project. Accordingly, Caltrans and City staff propose to amend CIA No.
D43CIASM0001 to allow the remaining funds to be used on the Poplar at Golf Course Trash Capture project. Additionally, staff prepared the attached proposed resolution to allow the transfer of remaining funds from the Coyote Point Trash 6 of 846
CITY OF SAN MATEO
Capture (No. 468202) project to the Poplar at Golf Course Trash Capture project (No. 460059) once the agreement is executed.
BUDGET IMPACT:
The agreement amendment will reduce the City’s cost to complete the Poplar at Golf Course Trash Capture project by $197,834.62. The resolution will appropriate $197,834.62 in Caltrans funds from the North Shoreview Flood Improvements - Coyote Point Trash Capture project (No. 468202) to the Trash Capture at Poplar and Golf Course project (No. 460059).
Additionally, the resolution will reduce the current appropriated funding from the Solid Waste Fund for Project No. 460059 by a corresponding amount of $197,834.62 to maintain a balanced budget for the project.
ENVIRONMENTAL DETERMINATION:
This action is not a project subject to CEQA, because the transfer of budget funds between trash capture projects is an organizational or administrative activity that will not result in direct or indirect physical changes in the environment. (CEQA Guidelines Section 15378(b)(5).)

NOW, THEREFORE, THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF SAN MATEO, CALIFORNIA, HEREBY RESOLVES that:

SUBJECT:
Contracts with Contingency Component – Update
RECOMMENDATION:
Receive the report on citywide contracts contingency fund expenditures for the period from July 1, 2015 through February 28, 2022.
BACKGROUND:
When presenting contracts to Council for award, staff typically requests approval of contingency funds and authorization to approve additional work or issue change orders up to that amount. The contingency amount is typically 10% of the total contract. This approach provides flexibility and efficiency in that projects may continue without having to return to the City Council for approval of change orders. The current report shows all active contracts citywide with contingencies greater than $25,000 awarded from July 1, 2015 through February 28, 2022. This report also includes an attachment that shows completed projects with contingencies from this same period. These updates are provided to Council approximately three times annually.
BUDGET IMPACT:
Since this is an update on previously awarded contracts, there is no budget impact. Sufficient funds have been allocated to each of the contracts, including the contingency amounts.
ENVIRONMENTAL DETERMINATION:
This report is not a project subject to CEQA, because it is an organizational or administrative activity that will not result in direct or indirect physical changes in the environment. (CEQA Guidelines Section 15378(b)(5).)

Agenda Number: 4 Section Name: CONSENT CALENDAR Account Number: 10-4662 File ID: 22-6248 TO: City Council
FROM: Drew Corbett, City Manager
PREPARED BY: Public Works Department
MEETING DATE: June 20, 2022
SUBJECT:
Citywide Street Rehabilitation – Agreements
RECOMMENDATION:
Approve an agreement with G. Bortolotto & Company, Inc. for street repair work for the Citywide Street Rehabilitation Package 3-B (Phase 1) Project in the amount of $2,166,207 and establish a contingency reserve in the amount of $217,000; approve an agreement with CSG Consultants, Inc. for construction inspection support in the amount of $108,500 and establish a contingency reserve in the amount of $10,850; and authorize the Public Works Director to execute the agreements in substantially the form presented and issue change orders within the amount of the contingency reserves.
BACKGROUND:
The Citywide Street Rehabilitation Package 3-B (Phase 1) project (Project) is part of the Public Works Pavement Management Program. The project will repair approximately 1.4 miles of streets across nine locations with an Engineer’s Estimate for the project of $3,100,000.
Agreement with G. Bortolotto & Company, Inc.
The project was advertised for bid on April 14, 2022, and a total of seven (7) bids were received and opened on May 12, 2022. The bids received are listed below in order of increasing bid amount.
Company Name Total Bid Amount
J.V. Lucas Paving, Inc. $2,133,695.85
G. Bortolotto & Company, Inc. $2,166,207.00
McGuire & Hester $2,437,307.50
Interstate Grading and Paving, Inc. $2,534,373.50
Granite Rock Company $2,552,507.00
O’Grady Paving, Inc. $2,896,230.00
Granite Construction $2,901,996.50
Staff reviewed the bids and found the apparent low bidder’s (J.V. Lucas Paving, Inc.’s) bid to be non-responsive as the proposal form omitted important information regarding the inclusion of addenda in the bid price in addition to other discrepancies within the bid. Specifically, the bid proposal form did not include the total bid amount and failed to acknowledge the bid proposal included additional material terms of the bid specifications in three different addenda. In addition, the Department of Industrial Relations registration form, which must be included with the bid, did not include subcontractor registration and license expiration dates. The seven (7) calendar day period to contest a determination of non-responsiveness commenced on May 19, 2022 and expired on May 26, 2022 pursuant to Resolution No. 61 (2004).
Accordingly, staff has determined that the second low bidder (G. Bortolotto & Company, Inc.) bid is responsive and responsible, and recommends City Council award the agreement to G. Bortolotto & Company, Inc. 23 of 846
CITY OF SAN MATEO
Agreement with CSG Consultants, Inc.
Public Works does not have sufficient staff resources to inspect and oversee all construction activities and regularly relies on third-party construction management and inspection to augment City resources. In May 2020, a request for proposals was issued for on-call services including inspection, general construction management, and specialty support services.
Proposals were evaluated and three firms were selected to provide on-call services, including: CSG Consultants, Inc. (CSG), Ghirardelli Associates, and MNS Engineers, Inc. Staff requested CSG submit a proposal for inspection services on the Project and, after reviewing the proposal, staff recommends awarding the agreement to CSG Consultants, Inc.
BUDGET IMPACT:
Sufficient funds are available in the Citywide Street Rehabilitation Package 2/Street Rehabilitation Phase 3-B (Project #467008) to award this agreement.
ENVIRONMENTAL DETERMINATION:
This project is categorically exempt from CEQA as an “existing facility,” because it consists of the operation, repair, maintenance, permitting, leasing, licensing, or minor alteration of existing public or private structures, facilities, mechanical equipment, or topographical features, involving negligible or no expansion of use. (CEQA Guidelines Section 15301.)
NOTICE PROVIDED
All meeting noticing requirements were met.

Construction Contract Page 3 of 9
Rev 7/21
determined as set forth herein for the respective crafts and employments, including such wages for holiday and overtime work. A copy of the correct determination will be posted at the job site. It is understood that it is the responsibility of Contractor to determine the correct scale. Copies of the prevailing wage rates are on file at the City Clerk's office, however, errors or defects in the materials in the City Clerk's office will not excuse a bidder's failure to comply with the actual scale then in force.
Contractor must submit certified payrolls to the Department of Industrial Relations in accordance with Labor Code Section 1776.
8. Senate Bill 854 Compliance Required. In accordance with Labor Code Sections 1725.5 and 1771.1, all contractors and subcontractors must be registered with the Department of Industrial Relations.

10. Hold Harmless and Indemnity Provision. Contractor agrees to hold harmless, defend, and indemnify the City, its elected and appointed officials, employees, and agents from and against any and all claims, loss, liability, damage, and expense arising from performance of this Agreement, including claims, loss, liability, damage, and expense caused or claimed to be caused by passive negligence of the City, its elected and appointed officials, employees, and agents; provided, however that this provision does not apply to claims, loss, liability, damage or expense arising from (a) the sole negligence or willful misconduct of the City or (b) the active negligence of the City; further provided, that this provision shall not affect the validity of any insurance contract, workers’ compensation or other agreement issued by an admitted insurer as defined by the Insurance Code.

The above $5,000 limit is the total of attorney fees recoverable whether in the trial court, appellate court, or otherwise, and regardless of the number of attorneys, trials, appeals or actions. It is the intent that neither party to this Agreement shall have to pay the other more than $5,000 for attorney fees arising out of an action, or actions, to enforce the provisions of the contract documents. The parties expect and hope there will be no litigation and that any differences will be resolved amicably.

The Town of Hillsborough (Town), Crystal Springs County Sanitation District (District), and the County of San Mateo (County) discharge sanitary sewage flow into the City’s sewer system. A sanitary sewage agreement exists between the parties to define the relationship, rights, and responsibilities of the parties for the discharge, pumping, transmission, and treatment of sewage contributed to the system. The most recent agreement is known as the “1989 Agreement,” and has been amended three times.
In March 2009, the San Francisco Bay Regional Water Quality Control Board issued Cease and Desist Order R2-2009-0020 (CDO) to the Town, City, and District (managed by the County) mandating actions to eliminate wet weather sanitary sewer overflows (SSOs) and unauthorized discharges of untreated or partially treated wastewater into the San Francisco Bay. The CDO also required the City to conduct an evaluation of options to increase capacity at the City’s Wastewater Treatment Plant (WWTP) to reduce and eventually eliminate a practice known as "blending." To address the CDO requirements, the City established the Clean Water Program (CWP) in 2014, a 10-year comprehensive $1 billion plan that includes a series of capital projects to upgrade and increase the wet weather capacity of the WWTP and collection system to eliminate SSOs and meet current and future NPDES permit requirements. The CWP is now in its eighth year and over 80% of the funding has been encumbered. Construction on the largest collection system and WWTP projects is underway and compliance with the CDO is planned for 2026.
While the CWP has been underway for several years, negotiations on a fourth amendment to the 1989 Agreement for the allocation and payments by the Town, District, and County for costs incurred by the City for the design and construction of certain CWP projects have stalled. The City, County, and District continue to discuss terms unrelated to the Town, which need to be resolved in order to finalize the fourth amendment. Because the Town acknowledges its responsibility to pay for its share of the capital costs of the CWP, the Interim Agreement for Payment of Capital Costs of Clean Water Program Projects between the Town of Hillsborough and the City will allow for the payments toward such capital costs until the fourth amendment between all the agencies is finalized.
BUDGET IMPACT:
46 of 846
CITY OF SAN MATEO
The percentage shares of the costs were developed using maximum allowable flows into the City's sewer collection system and WWTP and CWP project costs. The agreed percentage share and estimated contributions are as follows:
CWP Projects Town
WWTP Projects 7.6%
Dale Avenue Pump Station Projects 8.2%
Underground Flow Equalization System
Project 8.2%
Program Management Office 5.7%
Total Contribution $47,557,941
The Town has paid $947,249 toward their capital cost share of the CWP. Upon approval of this agreement, they have agreed to pay $2,415,000 in addition to their required annual payment of $2,402,979. However, the annual debt service will be revised once the final interest rate is determined based on the City’s financing terms. Revisions to the total contribution will also be made once the capital costs are finalized at the close out of the CWP. Under the terms of the Agreement, and as indicated in the recommendation, the City Manager would be authorized to amend the payment schedule when there is a change in interest rates or if the Town prepays its share of costs.
While the CWP improvements are designed to convey the design storm to eliminate SSOs, the Town is currently in the process of implementing inflow and infiltration improvement projects and does not believe that the peak capacity provided by the CWP will be required. An alternative allocation of costs will therefore apply if, within five years of the effective date of the Interim Agreement, the Town's flows fall below a certain set threshold. It is anticipated that the alternative allocation will be provided to the District as well. If the Town and District contribute less than the set flow thresholds, the total contribution for the CWP costs will be reduced to $32,527,428.
ENVIRONMENTAL DETERMINATION:
The City prepared a Final Programmatic Environmental Impact Report (PEIR) in accordance with the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) (SCH No. 2015032006) for the Clean Water Program. The PEIR was certified by Council on June 6, 2016. In accordance with CEQA, the Final PEIR serves as the primary environmental compliance document for implementation of the CWP. The City prepared Addenda to the Final PEIR that was approved on July 16, 2018 (Addendum 1) and April 15, 2019 (Addendum 2). This work is within the scope of the project evaluated in the PEIR and Addenda.
In accordance with CEQA Guidelines section 15080 through 15093, the City prepared an Environmental Impact Report (EIR) for the Underground Flow Equalization Project (SCH No. 2018092013) and on October 21, 2019 Council certified the Final EIR and adopted the requisite findings, statement of overriding considerations, and mitigation monitoring and reporting program.

INTERIM AGREEMENT FOR PAYMENT OF CAPITAL COSTS
OF CLEAN WATER PROGRAM PROJECTS
This Interim Agreement for Payment of Capital Costs of Clean Water Program Projects (this “Interim Agreement”) is entered into by and between the City of San Mateo (the “City”) and the Town of Hillsborough (“Hillsborough”) and is based on the following:
A. The City and Hillsborough are parties to a Sanitary Sewage Agreement entered into as of July 18, 1989 (the “1989 Agreement”). The County of San Mateo (the “County”) and the Crystal Springs County Sanitation District (the “District”) are also parties to the 1989 Agreement. The 1989 Agreement has been the subject of three prior amendments. The 1989 Agreement governs the operation of certain shared facilities for the transportation and treatment of sanitary sewage, allocation of costs for maintenance and improvement of the shared facilities, and allocation of treatment costs.
B. The wastewater generated by the City, Hillsborough, the County, and the District is subject to regulation under a National Pollution Discharge Elimination System permit (the “NPDES permit”).
C. The City, Hillsborough, the County, and the District are subject to Cease and Desist Order R2-2009-0020, which required certain improvements to the shared facilities.
D. The City has begun construction on a comprehensive suite of capital improvements referred to as the “Clean Water Program,” including capital improvements to the sewage treatment plant owned by the City and Foster City and operated by the City (the “Wastewater Treatment Plant” or “WWTP”).
E. The City, Hillsborough, the County, and the District have been negotiating a fourth amendment to the 1989 Agreement to allocate capital costs for the Clean Water Program and provide for the installation of a new meter along Polhemus Road. The fourth amendment has not been finalized. The City, County, and District continue to discuss terms unrelated to Hillsborough which need to be resolved in order to finalize the fourth amendment.
F. Hillsborough acknowledges its responsibility to pay for its share of the capital costs of the Clean Water Program and is willing to make payments toward such capital costs on an interim basis until the fourth amendment is finalized. Hillsborough’s Percentage Share consists of Project Costs incurred by City beginning in October 2014 through the completion of construction of Clean Water Program Projects.
G. The City desires to receive the interim payment of capital costs from Hillsborough and cooperate on other procedures between the two agencies until the fourth amendment can be finalized.
Now, therefore, for good and valuable consideration, the City and Hillsborough agree as follows:
//
50 of 846
AGREEMENT
Section 1. Definitions
The following definitions apply to the terms used in this Amendment. “Clean Water Program” means the suite of capital improvement projects to the City’s sewer collection system and WWTP that are necessary for capacity assurance and reliability, and to meet regulatory compliance requirements contained in the Cease and Desist Order and NPDES permits.
“Clean Water Program Projects” means those projects listed in Exhibit A which provide a benefit to Hillsborough and for which Hillsborough and others will be responsible for a share of capital costs.
“District Meter” means the existing meter located along Polhemus Road owned and maintained by the District which currently measures flows from the Polhemus Trunk Sewer from the City/County/District and into the Crystal Springs/El Cerrito Trunk Sewer. “Effective Date” means the date on which this Amendment is last signed by the parties. “El Cerrito Meter” means the flow meter installed at El Cerrito Avenue near Gramercy Drive, which measures sewage flows contributed by the City/Town/District/County. “Maximum Allowable Flow” means the maximum volume of wastewater, expressed in millions of gallons per day (MGD), that Hillsborough is authorized to convey through the El Cerrito Meter and the Yew/Borel Trunk Sewer. Based on a Technical Memorandum prepared by Jacobs as revised October 12, 2020, the Maximum Allowable Flows for Hillsborough is 7.1 MGD (Including 0.3 MGD for the Yew/Borel Trunk Sewer) for purposes of this Interim Agreement.
“Metered Flows” refers to the calculation of each party’s flows through various meters, as set forth in Section 5 (Calculation of Flows) of the 1989 Agreement. “New Polhemus Meter” means the meter to be installed by Hillsborough at or near Polhemus Road to measure flows coming into the Crystal Springs/El Cerrito Trunk Sewer from the Polhemus Trunk Sewer.
“Percentage Share” means Hillsborough’s share of Project Costs and is calculated by dividing Hillsborough’s Maximum Allowable Flow by the maximum capacity at which a collection system or treatment facility is designed to operate. The Percentage Share for various Project Costs is set forth in Exhibit A, and is subject to adjustment as set forth in this Interim 51 of 846
Agreement. The general methodology for calculating the parties’ percentage shares based on Maximum Allowable Flows is illustrated in the excerpts from the Technical Memorandum attached to this Amendment as Exhibit A-1; provided, that the provisions in the body of this Amendment shall control over the contents of Exhibit A-1. “Project Costs” means all costs incurred by City to develop, finance, implement, and complete construction of Clean Water Program Projects, including costs of construction contracts, professional consultant services, material and equipment procurement, compliance with regulatory requirements and mitigation measures, real property acquisitions, legal services, finance and economic consultants, and staff costs. In addition, Project Costs include any liability the City incurs in performing the work associated with Clean Water Program Projects and any claims adjusting, claims investigation, and costs incurred in defending claims (including reasonable attorney fees) brought by any consultant, contractor or third party for damages arising out of the prosecution of the Clean Water Program Projects. “Project Costs” does not include components of the Clean Water Program which do not benefit Hillsborough and the costs for which are not allocated to it under this Interim Agreement.
Section 2. Interim Payment of Capital Costs
All financial participation requirements established in previous amendments to the 1989 Agreement and the 1989 Agreement remain in force and are not modified by this Interim Agreement.
City and Hillsborough acknowledge that City is responsible for acquiring financing for Clean Water Program Costs, and has done so through a line of credit, a series of sewer revenue bonds issued in 2019, and loans through programs administered under the Federal Water Infrastructure Finance and Innovation Act. City anticipates securing additional funding through additional sewer revenue bonds and/or the Clean Water State Revolving Fund program.
For purposes of calculating its payments under this Interim Agreement, Hillsborough’s Percentage Share of Project Costs shall be:
WWTP Project Costs 7.6%
Dale Avenue Pump Station Projects 8.2%
Underground Flow equalization System Projects 8.2%
Program Management Office 5.7%
Subject to Section 3 below, Hillsborough agrees to reimburse the City for Project Costs incurred in accordance with these percentage shares as follows:
Hillsborough will make an initial payment of $2,415,000.00, which shall be due and payable within 30 days of the Effective Date. Thereafter, Hillsborough shall make quarterly payments in accordance with Exhibit B (Scenario One – Full Flow) until this Interim Agreement is replaced with the fourth amendment or other permanent arrangement. These interim payments shall be in addition to the periodic charges for wastewater treatment services. 52 of 846
Exhibit B amortizes the remaining Project Costs after the initial payment on a 30-year basis.
Hillsborough may prepay its share of the remaining Project Costs, in whole or in part and from time to time, without penalty. Hillsborough agrees it shall provide the City with at least 30 days advance notice should it intend to prepay any of its share of the remaining Project Costs in any amount exceeding the scheduled payments described in Exhibit B. Hillsborough and the City will thereafter amend Exhibit B accordingly to reflect Hillsborough’s said prepayment of its share of Project Costs over the remaining years of the original 30-year amortization period pursuant to Section 9 of this Interim Agreement.
Prior invoices for capital costs issued by the City to Hillsborough and any payments by Hillsborough for such costs have been incorporated into Exhibit B.
Hillsborough acknowledges the Percentage Share was developed using a hydraulic model of Hillsborough’s Maximum Allowable Flow and the design capacity of the facilities to be constructed as part of the Clean Water Program and intended to be used for capital planning over the course of the Clean Water Program. Hillsborough’s Percentage Share will remain unchanged, even if actual flows do not exceed Maximum Allowable Flow, except as detailed in Section 3.
The City shall provide an annual report to Hillsborough regarding the progress of the Clean Water Program including percentage of completion of components of the Clean Water Program and expected completion dates, Project Costs, interest rates, cost overruns, design changes, and other pertinent financial information. The report shall be provided within 60 days of the end of each fiscal year while the Clean Water Program Improvements are being constructed and at the end of the Clean Water Program.
Section 3. Alternative Allocation of Project Costs
The City agrees to provide for an alternative allocation of Project Costs that will apply under the circumstances described in this section.
If during the five years from the Effective Date the Metered Flows from Hillsborough at the El Cerrito Meter exceed the rolling average rate of 4.5 MGD (excluding the 0.3 MGD from the Yew/Borel Trunk Sewer) for any two-hour period, then Hillsborough’s share of Project Costs shall be determined pursuant to the provisions of Section 2. If during the five years from the Effective Date the Metered Flows at the El Cerrito Meter from Hillsborough never exceed the rolling average rate of 4.5 MGD for any two-hour period, then Hillsborough’s share of Project Costs shall be:
WWTP Project Costs 5.2%
Dale Avenue Pump Station Projects 5.6%
Underground Flow Equalization System Projects 5.6%
Program Management Office 3.9%
Hillsborough’s rolling average over a two-hour period shall be calculated by the City using the one-minute interval flow data of the preceding two hours recorded at the El Cerrito Meter, less the one-minute interval flows recorded at the District Meter (until the New 53 of 846
Polhemus Meter has been installed and calibrated, and thereafter by the New Polhemus Meter) for the comparable period that accounts for the lag time between the two meters. The calculations for these flows shall be verified by a third-party consultant acceptable to the parties.
Hillsborough agrees to pay the City its share of Project Costs as calculated pursuant to Section 2 beginning at the Effective Date of this Interim Agreement.
If Hillsborough’s share of the Project Costs is to be adjusted pursuant to the provisions of this section, Hillsborough shall make payments in the amounts as shown in Scenario II – Reduced at 5 Year of Exhibit B. Hillsborough will receive a credit for the amount by which the payments under Scenario I exceeded the amounts under Scenario II prior to adjustment, and this credit will be applied to payments due under Scenario II until exhausted.
The five-year period established under this Section 3 shall be carried forward in the fourth amendment or other modification of the 1989 Agreement.
Section 4. Metering
The parties acknowledge and agree that accurate measurement of flows is essential to the allocation of both Project Costs and treatment costs.
(a) The City is agreeable to a new permanent flow meter to be installed at a new, more level location near Polhemus Road as selected by Hillsborough, within Hillsborough’s municipal boundaries (the “New Polhemus Meter”). The New Polhemus Meter shall be owned by Hillsborough. The selection of the New Polhemus Meter will be recommended by a consultant acceptable to the parties. Hillsborough shall provide the plans and specifications for the New Polhemus Meter to the City for engineering review and approval. Approval shall not be unreasonably withheld by the City. Any comments or objections shall be provided to Hillsborough within 10 working days. If Hillsborough determines that installation of the New Polhemus Meter involves modifications to the District’s facilities, Hillsborough shall at its earliest opportunity inform the District and coordinate the modifications, including scheduling and design, with the District. The City shall not be responsible for any design, scheduling, or construction of modifications to the District’s facilities, if any are required. Hillsborough acknowledges it is solely responsible for satisfying all conditions for the installation of the New Polhemus Meter. Until the New Polhemus Meter is installed and calibrated, the current District Meter shall continue to be used as the meter of record for measuring Hillsborough’s flows and as a basis for billing treatment costs to Hillsborough under the 1989 Agreement. Once it is installed, the New Polhemus Meter will be calibrated to manufacturer’s standards and put into service and thereafter shall be the meter of record for Hillsborough’s flows and treatment costs for the duration of this Interim Agreement. Hillsborough will pay the cost of installing the New Polhemus Meter and the initial calibration. Thereafter, the City may utilize the District Meter for comparative purposes.
(b) Within 60 days of the Effective Date, the El Cerrito Meter will be calibrated to manufacturer’s standards by a consultant acceptable to the parties. Thereafter, the El Cerrito and New Polhemus Meter will be read and maintained by a third-party consultant acceptable to the 54 of 846
parties. The City/District/County/Hillsborough shall have on-line access to the meter data from the El Cerrito and New Polhemus Meters on a real-time basis. Meter calibration records shall be shared amongst the City/District/County/Hillsborough.
(c) Following the installation and calibration of the New Polhemus Meter and the calibration of the El Cerrito Meter, the meters shall be calibrated not less than annually and shall be replaced when recommended by the third-party consultant.
(d) Except as provided in Section 4(a)-(c) above, the cost of calibrating the El Cerrito and New Polhemus Meters shall be shared equally by the City and Hillsborough for the duration of this Interim Agreement. Maintenance and reading costs of said meters shall continue pursuant to the 1989 Agreement.
Section 5. Payment
Hillsborough agrees to pay its Percentage Share of Project Costs incurred by the City for Clean Water Program Projects. Hillsborough agrees to pay its Percentage Share of Project Costs to City in installments as set forth in Exhibit B for the duration of this Interim Agreement.
Installment payments will commence 30 days after the Effective Date and continue until the full amount of Project Costs and interest has been paid, not exceeding 30 years from the Effective Date, as provided in this Interim Agreement. The amount of the installments will be based on the cost estimates for the Clean Water Program Projects on the effective date of this Interim Agreement, plus interest based on the weighted average of any financing and refinancing obtained for the Clean Water Program Projects. Installment payment amounts will be reduced by the initial payment, as identified in Section 2, and by the amounts paid to the City by Hillsborough for the flow-based percentage of actual costs incurred in connection with Clean Water Program Projects during the period between October 2014 and the Effective Date. The installment schedules in Exhibit B shall be adjusted for differing interest rates when achieved.
Upon completion of construction of the Clean Water Program Projects, the City will recalculate the amount of the installments to reflect the final Project Costs, plus interest as provided in this section, and re-amortize these costs for the balance of time remaining in Exhibit B. Hillsborough acknowledges that the amount of the installments may increase or decrease based on actual Project Costs; however, in no case may the time for payment of the full amount of Project Costs and interest exceed 30 years from the Effective Date unless otherwise agreed for in any subsequent amendment or agreement.
The City and Hillsborough will meet and confer on any new projects in addition to those described in Exhibit A that will have a material effect on the Project Costs payable by them. 55 of 846
Section 6. Late Payment
For any amounts invoiced and not paid to the City within 60 days, Hillsborough agrees to pay to City a late charge equal to 1.5% of the overdue amount. This late charge is a reasonable sum that takes into consideration all the circumstances existing on the date of this Interim Agreement and is a fair and reasonable estimate of the costs and expenses that will be incurred by City due to Hillsborough's failure to make timely payments. The parties agree that it would be impracticable or extremely difficult to fix the actual damages resulting to City from Hillsborough's failure to make timely payments.
Section 7. Payment Required During Dispute
The City and Hillsborough agree to comply with their respective obligations under this Interim Agreement, including full payment of Project Costs as invoiced, while resolution of any disputes under this Interim Amendment or the 1989 Agreement are pending.
Section 8. Survival
In the event that the 1989 Agreement is terminated or found to be unenforceable, the provisions of this Interim Agreement shall remain in effect as the funding mechanism for Hillsborough’s share of the Clean Water Program Projects as defined herein.
Section 9. Amendments and Amendment to Conform to New Agreement In the event that the City agrees to financial terms with the District and/or County in a subsequent modification of the 1989 Agreement or another agreement that are more favorable than those set forth in this Interim Agreement, Hillsborough shall be entitled to the benefit of the same terms, which shall be applied retroactively and prospectively.
In the event Hillsborough prepays its share of Project Costs as described in Section 2 of this Interim Agreement, the City Managers of the City and Hillsborough are hereby authorized to amend Hillsborough’s payment schedule(s) as reflected in Exhibit B. Any other amendment to this Interim Agreement unrelated to the payment schedule shall continue to require approval from the parties’ respective legislative bodies.
Section 10. Limitations
The terms of the 1989 Agreement, as amended, shall continue in full force and effect, including its procedures for quarterly billing and annual reconciliation for operation and maintenance costs, except that the City and Hillsborough agree to modify their rights and obligations with respect to each other as provided in this Interim Agreement and do not intend to affect the rights or obligations of the County or District. This Interim Agreement shall not affect the allocation of costs for non-CWP capital improvement costs, or other services under the 1989 Agreement except as provided in Section 4.
56 of 846
This Amendment affects the cost allocation for the Clean Water Program as designed as of the Effective Date. Any future capital projects, including modifications to the WWTP or sewage transmission lines, shall be the subject of an amendment to the 1989 Agreement.
In the event of a conflict between the terms of this Interim Agreement and the terms of the 1989 Agreement, as amended, the terms in this Interim Agreement shall control.

TO: City Council
FROM: Drew Corbett, City Manager
PREPARED BY: Public Works Department
MEETING DATE: June 20, 2022
SUBJECT:
Wastewater Treatment Plant Supply of Liquid Emulsion Polymer – Contract RECOMMENDATION:
Adopt a Resolution to approve an alternative purchasing procedure and award a contract to SNF Polydyne for the supply of liquid emulsion polymer in the amount of $379,303, including sales tax, and authorize the Public Works Director to execute the contract in substantially the form presented.
BACKGROUND:
The Wastewater Treatment Plant (WWTP) uses liquid emulsion polymer for the dewatering of biosolids. Polymer use is important as the chemical optimizes the dewatering process, producing biosolids with less water. The lower the water content in the biosolids, the lower the transportation costs associated with the hauling for their disposal.
The current supplier, SNF Polydyne, has provided a custom-blended polymer that has been tested and optimized for the WWTP’s biosolids. Staff recommends the continued use of this same polymer blend, Clarifloc WE-1273 and WE-1728, from SNF Polydyne as it performs well and produces the results needed to maintain day-to-day WWTP operations. The testing of different polymer blends from other chemical vendors would be a labor-intensive task, requiring additional performance optimization testing. San Mateo Municipal Code section 3.60.050(b) authorizes procurement without competitive bidding procedures when calling for bids is impracticable, unavailing, or impossible. A contract with SNF Polydyne is appropriate pursuant to these standards since SNF Polydyne is the sole-source provider of its polymer blend, Clarifoc WE-1273 and WE-1728, which has shown superior performance results. Therefore, staff recommends the purchase of polymer from SNF Polydyne.
The contract includes the supply and delivery of 200,000 lbs of the chemical product.
Contractor Bid Amount Contract Amount*
SNF Polydyne $1.730/lb $346,000
*Does not include 9.625% sales tax
The unit price bid for SNF Polydyne was $1.730 per pound. The term of the contract is 12 months and the price is to remain firm for the entire period. Including sales tax, the total cost to the City is approximately $379,303.
BUDGET IMPACT:
Funding is budgeted for the supply of chemicals in the Wastewater Treatment Plant operations budget. 95 of 846
CITY OF SAN MATEO
ENVIRONMENTAL DETERMINATION:
This City Council action is not a project subject to CEQA, because it is a continuing maintenance activity involving the purchase of supplies and a government fiscal activity which does not involve any commitment ot any specific project which may result in a potentially significant physical impact on the environment. (CEQA Guidelines Section 15378(b)(2); 15378(b)(4).)

RESOLUTION NO.__(2022)
APPROVING ALTERNATIVE PURCHASING PROCEDURE FOR AN AGREEMENT WITH SNF POLYDYNE FOR
SUPPLY OF LIQUID EMULSION POLYMER
WHEREAS, the Wastewater Treatment Plant uses Liquid Emulsion Polymer for the dewatering of biosolids; and
WHEREAS, SNF Polydyne provides a custom-blended polymer that has been tested and optimized for the plant’s biosolids; and
WHEREAS, retesting of polymer blends from other chemical vendors would be a labor-intensive task, requiring additional performance optimization testing; and WHEREAS, in accordance with Municipal Code section 3.60.050 (b) agreements may be awarded without competitive bids if calling for bids would be impracticable, unavailing or impossible and the City Council sets forth findings designating the reasons; and WHEREAS, City staff recommends approval of the agreement with SNF Polydyne for the supply of Liquid Emulsion Polymer.
NOW, THEREFORE, THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF SAN MATEO, CALIFORNIA, HEREBY FINDS and RESOLVES that:
1. This Council action is not a project subject to CEQA, because it is a continuing maintenance activity involving the purchase of supplies and a government fiscal activity which does not involve any commitment to any specific project which may result in a potential significant physical impact on the environment (CEQA Guidelines Sections 15378(b)(2); 15378(b)(4)).
2. In accordance with Municipal Code section 3.60.050 (b), calling for bids would be impracticable because:

Subject: Polydyne CLARIFLOC Emulsion Price Increase Proposal Dear Mr. Sutter,
Polydyne Inc. would like to thank you for your continued business and partnership. While we are sincerely appreciative for the opportunity to continue to supply our CLARIFLOC WE-1273 and CLARIFLOC WE-1728, we must respectfully request relief in the form of a price adjustment due largely to significant cost increases for raw materials, freight services, as well as the ongoing COVID19 pandemic.
Continued high demand for finished polymers, coupled with a tight global supply of raw materials has driven the cost of these same raw materials to record high costs. Attached for your reference, please find the BLS Producer Price Index (PPI) for Chemicals and Allied Products (Series ID: WPU066) showing an increase of 27.6%, and Plastic Material and Resins mfg (Series ID: PCU325211325211) showing an increase of 24.2%.
Regarding transportation costs, the current demand for trucking services exceeds available supply. As a result, we are experiencing substantial trucking base-rate increases. These rising trucking rates significantly impact both the costs for raw materials delivered to our manufacturing facilities, and the cost to ship finished polymers to our valued customers. Please find attached graph for Long-Distance Trucking, which reflects an increase of 29.7% over the last year. While these indices do not fully encompass the totality of all the increases we have experienced, they are illustrative of the volatile market conditions for chemical manufacturing and trucking services.
Propylene is a derivative from crude oil. All the polymers currently used by the City of San Mateo are oilbased products. Polymer finished pricing have historically tracked with raw crude oil pricing. The now ongoing Russian-Ukraine conflict has driven the price of raw crude oil to > than $100/bbl. This is an increase not seen in over a decade. The forecast for crude oil pricing for the next few months is to continue to escalate, and remain record-high. This significant increase in crude oil pricing will continue to significantly increase the costs for both manufacture and freight of polymer. We are seeing this increase now, and expect to see the high costs continue.
In March 2021, oil was $58 per barrel, and in Jan 2022, it had increased to $76 per barrel. This was a 30% increase. As of today, oil is over $110 per barrel. That is an increase over the last 12 months of Exhibit A
104 of 846
SNF Polydyne • 1 Chemical Plant Road • Riceboro, GA 31323 USA • Tel 800.848.7659 90%, and an increase in the last 2 months of 45%. The price of oil is directly related to the price of the base chemicals used to make the raw materials needed to produce your polymers.
The cost to do business during the COVID19 pandemic has been significant. While there is no standard government index to measure the cost impact to our business, the pandemic has definitely impacted nearly every aspect of our business costs, ie. raw materials, freight, labor, energy, personnel, and administrative. Barring no reversal to the pandemic recovery, these cost impacts to our business and industry are expected to continue for the remainder of 2022, and into 2023.
Polydyne has always made every attempt in the past to shield our customers from the volatility of “normal” market conditions. However, these last 24 months have been unprecedented in terms of escalating costs, and have been anything but “normal”.
Effective April 1, 2022 we propose to supply CLARIFLOC WE-1273 and CLARICLOC WE-1728 in totes at an adjusted unit price of $1.73/Lb. (not including tax).
SNF is the largest producer of water-soluble polymers in the US. Our highest priority to the City of San Mateo and is to reliably supply your plant with the highest quality polymer you require to meet your operational demands. Please be assured that we are closely monitoring all aspects of our business, and are working tirelessly to remain the low-cost supplier. We greatly appreciate your understanding of our position and the market factors that have necessitated this request. Please respond via email to [email protected] if this offer is acceptable.
We greatly appreciate your business and look forward to continuing our valued partnership. Should you have any questions, please feel free to contact myself at (415) 218-6089.
Best regards,
RAWLIN CASTRO

Agenda Number: 8 Section Name: CONSENT CALENDAR Account Number: 72-4671- 07-5281
File ID: 22-6280
TO: City Council
FROM: Drew Corbett, City Manager
PREPARED BY: Public Works Department
MEETING DATE: June 20, 2022
SUBJECT:
Wastewater Treatment Plant Biosolids Hauling and Disposal – Agreement RECOMMENDATION:
Award an agreement to Synagro-WWT, Inc. for Wastewater Treatment Plant biosolids hauling and disposal for three years in an amount not-to-exceed $1,824,250; approve two, one-year options to extend at $610,000 each for a not-to-exceed total amount of $3,044,250; establish a contingency of $100,000; and authorize the Public Works Director to execute the agreement and issue change orders up to the contingency amount in substantially the form presented.
BACKGROUND:
The wastewater treatment process produces biosolids, which are hauled off-site for disposal on a routine basis. The Wastewater Treatment Plant Biosolids Hauling and Disposal agreement will provide for the removal of an estimated 25,000 tons of biosolids over a period of 36 months and includes two optional twelve-month extensions.
In accordance with Municipal Code section 3.60.030, a competitive public process was used to obtain bids for this service.
Specifications and a Notice Inviting Sealed Proposals were published in May 2022. A mandatory walkthrough was held on May 5, 2022, and three bids were received and opened on May 12, 2022. The three bids received were as follows:
Contractor Bid Amount
(per ton) Contract Amounts
Synagro-WWT, Inc. $72.97 $1,824,250
Compactor Management Co, LLC $71.75 $1,793,750
S&S Trucking $66.25
5.05555555
$1,656,250
5.05555555
The lowest responsible bidder provides the goods and services according to the agreement requirements for the lowest cost; provided that the bidder has the ability, capacity, and, when necessary, the required State or other licenses to perform the work. While S&S Trucking submitted the lowest bid, they did not attend the mandatory pre-bid walkthrough, making its bid non-responsive to the bid requirements per Section 11.a of the Notice Inviting Sealed Bids. The second lowest bid was provided by Compactor Management Co, LLC, with a bid of $71.25 per ton.
However, Compactor Management has never held a biosolids agreement nor hauled biosolids and only referenced a single point of disposal (a landfill) for the entire agreement. To comply with California SB 1383 requirements for reducing organic materials to landfills, land application is also required as a biosolids disposal option, which this bid did not include. Therefore, the bid from Compactor Management is also non-responsive. Synagro-WWT, Inc. submitted a responsive bid and meets the SB 1383 requirements. Synagro-WWT, Inc. also has 40 years of experience 110 of 846
CITY OF SAN MATEO
in the biosolids residuals management business. As a result, staff determined Synagro-WWT, Inc. to be the lowest responsive and responsible bidder and, therefore, recommends awarding the biosolids hauling agreement accordingly.
The State of California Department of Industrial Relations requires that prevailing wages be paid on public works projects that are more than $1,000. While the hauling of biosolids does not meet the State’s definition of a public works project, the contract documents include prevailing wage requirements to ensure a competitive wage for the service provider.
BUDGET IMPACT:
This is a three-year agreement and will cover the period between July 1, 2022 and June 30, 2025. Sufficient funds are budgeted in the Wastewater Treatment Plant operations budget to award this agreement.
ENVIRONMENTAL DETERMINATION:
This agreement is categorically exempt from CEQA as an “existing facility,” because it consists of the operation, repair, maintenance, permitting, leasing, licensing, or minor alteration of existing public or private structures, facilities, mechanical equipment, or topographical features, involving negligible or no expansion of use. (CEQA Guidelines Section 15301.)
NOTICE PROVIDED
All meeting noticing requirements were met.

Prevailing wage determinations which have double asterisks (**) after the expiration date indicate that the basic hourly wage rate, overtime, and holiday pay rates, and employer payments to be paid for work performed after this date have been predetermined. If work is extended past this date, the new rate must be paid and should be incorporated in contracts the Contractor enters into.
Any contractor awarded a public works project who intends to use a craft or classification not shown on the general prevailing wage determinations will be required to pay the wage rate of that craft or classification most closely related to it as shown in the general determinations effective at the time the bids are opened. Attention is directed to Section SP-7-2.3.6, Federal Labor Standards Provisions.
A copy of the correct determination will be posted at the job site. It is understood that it is the responsibility of the bidder to determine the correct scale. The City will keep a copy of the wage scale in 114 of 846

Agenda Number: 9 Section Name: CONSENT CALENDAR Account Number: 46t090 File ID: 22-6288 TO: City Council
FROM: Drew Corbett, City Manager
PREPARED BY: Public Works Department
MEETING DATE: June 20, 2022
SUBJECT:
Wastewater Treatment Plant Immediate Action Projects, Package III – Bid Rejection RECOMMENDATION:
Adopt a Resolution to reject the sole bid received for Wastewater Treatment Plant Immediate Action Projects, Package III, and authorize the Public Works Director to negotiate a contract directly with Mountain Cascade, Inc.
BACKGROUND:
The City of San Mateo Wastewater Treatment Plant (WWTP) is an aging facility, and the Clean Water Program (CWP) includes a variety of capital improvement projects to rehabilitate and upgrade the existing facilities. WWTP Immediate Action Projects, Package III is a component of the CWP and includes improvements to the WWTP’s effluent pump station, site waste pump station, and plant-wide mechanical and electrical equipment, as well as replacement of effluent flowmeters and sludge heating and recirculation piping.
In accordance with Municipal Code section 3.60.030, a competitive public process was used to obtain bids for this service.
A Notice Inviting Sealed Proposals and Bidding Documents was issued to advertise the project on April 15, 2022. Eleven contractors attended the mandatory pre-bid site walk on April 21, 2022. One bid was received and opened on May 20, 2022 with the result below, which is 64 percent above the engineer’s estimate of $12,131,000.
Contractor Bid Amount
Mountain Cascade, Inc. $19,880,000
Based on information from this contractor, the cost and procurement lead times for materials and equipment associated with this project have increased due to the current market conditions and supply chain issues. The project is expected to take approximately 18 months to complete. Future market conditions and the associated impacts and/or benefits are uncertain.
San Mateo Municipal Code section 3.60.040(a)(4) authorizes the City Council to, at its discretion, reject all bids received, negotiate a contract for the work or supplies if the project is not within budget, do the work through City employees, or terminate the project or purchase. Given that the bid is greater than the established budget for the project, staff is requesting for City Council to reject all bids. However, given the uncertainty of future price escalations, there may be an opportunity to have value engineering discussions with the single bidder now and identify potential savings. Staff is therefore requesting for City Council to authorize the Director of Public Works to have negotiation discussions with Mountain Cascade, Inc. in an effort to identify areas where cost reductions may be achieved. If these negotiations are successful, staff will return to City Council for approval of a modified contract with Mountain Cascade, Inc. at a future date.
If negotiations are not successful, staff will either rebid the project at a later date or modify the scope. 122 of 846
CITY OF SAN MATEO
BUDGET IMPACT:
There is no budget impact for the rejection of bids.
ENVIRONMENTAL DETERMINATION:
The City prepared a Final Programmatic Environmental Impact Report (Final PEIR) in accordance with the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) (SCH No. 2015032006). On June 6, 2016, Council certified the PEIR. In accordance with CEQA, the Final PEIR serves as the primary environmental compliance document for the implementation of the Clean Water Program. The City prepared Addenda to the Final PEIR that was approved on July 16, 2018 (Addendum 1) and April 15, 2019 (Addendum 2). This work is within the scope of the Project evaluated in the PEIR and Addendum.

All meeting noticing requirements were met.
