4. Work Plan
4.1 Description of Cooling Tower Cleaning & Disinfection A.) Online Disinfection
The pre-disinfection will be performed by Plant Operators prior to the physical cleaning of the system. The disinfection will be conducted under the direction of a project specialist. During this process, the fans must be OFF (if possible) in the off-line systems, and the recirculation pumps will be ON. To begin disinfection, elevated levels of an oxidizing biocide will be added, per Cooling Tower Institute (CTI) recommendations for routine online disinfection. A biodispersant or deposit release chemistry will be added to increase the performance of the disinfection by breaking-up and removing organic material, bacteria, and slime

that are in the fill. Chemistry data will be collected and documented by the Precept Environmental Project Manager.
B.) Physical System Cleaning
The cooling tower will be isolated and drained for the manual cleaning process under the guidance of the facility personnel.
Facility personnel will also assist Precept in system lockout/tag-out, and system draining.
During the physical system cleaning process, Precept will use high pressure washers to clean the entire internal and external areas to the extent possible. The physical cleaning will include the cleaning of the drift eliminator areas, internal sump, basin, and fan plenum areas. The intent of the physical cleaning process is to remove dirt, debris, bacteria, and organic material that have collected on the surfaces. Using high-pressur"e washers, the debris will be pushed towards the basin. Once the debris is isolated, it will be bagged and disposed of in a facility dumpster. DEBRIS WILL BE DOUBLE-BAGGED TO PREVENT LEAl<AGE INTO THE DUMPSTER.
c.) Final System Disinfection
Following the manual cleaning process of the entire system, the cooling tower will be completely refilled, and the Plant Operators will disinfect the system again per Part A (Online Disinfection). At this point, the system may require another drain & refill depending on system turbidity. Afterwards, the normal water treatment program should be started again to re-passivate the metal, and reduce the potential for flash corrosion. If necessary, Precept will coordinate this process with the existing chemical water treatment supplier.

REPORT TO COUNCIL
SUBJECT
Action on the Second Amendment to the Contract Between the County of Santa Clara And City of Santa Clara - Congregate Meals for the Senior Nutrition Program at the Santa Clara Senior Center for FY2021/22 and Related Budget Amendment
COUNCIL PILLAR
Deliver and Enhance High Quality Efficient Services and Infrastructure
BACKGROUND
The City of Santa Clara works collaboratively with the County of Santa Clara to provide a Senior Nutrition Congregate Meals Program (Program) at the Santa Clara Senior Center. The Program targets seniors aged 60 and over, serving a basic need of lower income households and special needs populations. The Program goals are to reduce hunger and food insecurity, increase socialization, and promote the health and well-being of older adults. The Program is a gateway to other supportive community programs and services at the Senior Center.
On August 20, 2019, Council authorized the City Manager to execute an agreement with the County for the Program including a provision for four, one-year extensions on a “fiscal year” (FY) July 1 through June 30 basis. The original agreement (Attachment 1) was effective July 1, 2019 through June 30, 2020 with a not to exceed amount of $111,221 to serve on average, 63 meals per day, five days per week, for a total of 15,687 meals per year. The City’s contribution to the program includes funding in the amount of $24,000 from the Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) program, $3,445 from the General Fund, variable amounts of participant donations, and a volunteer match.
On May 4, 2021, Council authorized the City Manager to execute an agreement including amendments with the County for the Program for COVID-19 Emergency Meals served from November 1, 2020 through June 30, 2021. The agreement (Attachment 2) provided funding in the amount of $209,280 to serve, on average, 180 meals per day for an additional $24,000 due to continued pandemic impacts and food insecurity among greater numbers of eligible seniors.
DISCUSSION
In December 2021, the County issued the City the Second Amendment (Attachment 3) to the agreement for provision of the Senior Nutrition Congregate Meals Program at the Senior Center for FY2021/22. The amendment:
· Adds Exhibit A-2 Program Provisions which describes basic terms and the financial obligations including the not to exceed amount of $121,324 for
FY 2021/22, and a total contract not to exceed amount of $361,730; with two one-year extension options;
City of Santa Clara Printed on 3/4/2022Page 1 of 3
powered by Legistar™
22-182 Agenda Date: 3/8/2022
· Adds Exhibit B-2 Program Plan & Requirements which describe the Program, eligibility, meals, site conditions, etc.;
· Adds Exhibit C-3: Service Plan & Budget, Staffing Plan, and Resource Table; and · Adds Exhibit D-2: “Logic Model” which defines the Program goals, activities and measures.
All other terms and conditions remain in effect.
Similar to previous years, the City has allocated funds for Program expenditures. The County will reimburse the City for an average daily meal count of 69 in a not to exceed amount of $121,324 for allowable Program expenditures. The City will fund the remaining Program costs in the amount of $24,000 (approximately 19% of contract total) from CDBG, the Parks & Recreation Department operating funds and donations.
As has occurred in the past, the County may also adjust the Program budget during the fiscal year to provide for additional meals and funding. The recommendation, therefore, requests authorization for the Office of the City Manager to execute any additional modifications or amendments from the County for this Program, subject to the appropriation of funds. This will give the City the ability to respond to County Program changes efficiently and provide continuity of services to seniors in the program.
ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW
The action being considered does not constitute a “project” within the meaning of the California Environmental Quality Act (“CEQA”) pursuant to CEQA Guidelines section 15378(b)(5) in that it is a governmental organizational or administrative activity that will not result in direct or indirect changes in the environment.
FISCAL IMPACT
The City’s Senior Nutrition Program revenues and appropriations have been included in the Fiscal Years 2021/22 and 2022/23 Operating Budget in the Parks and Recreation Operating Grant Trust Fund. The City pays 19% of the total contract amount, or $24,000 from Community Development Block Grant funds, and less than 1%, or $3,445, from the General Fund. The County funds the remaining cost of the program on a reimbursement basis. The requested budget amendment is to decrease the current FY 2021/22 budget appropriation of $144,539 by $23,215 for a total budget appropriation of $121,324.

CARE ACCESS ERROR RATE REQUIREMENT
Federal regulations pursuant to Title Ill of the Older Americans Act of 1965 (OAA) establish procedures for allocating money to states for various senior services. States have established allocation mechanisms to award monies to their Area Agencies on Aging (AAA). These AAAs In tum, award monies via contracts or grants to carry out the mission of the OAA. ·
Sourcewlse, the County of Santa Clara's designated AAA, allocates money for the provision of the Congregate Meals Program by reimbursing the County based on the number of meals served seniors each month. This data Is tracked through · Sourcewlse's Care Access Database. When there is a discrepancy between the paper total (signatures of SNP participants) and scanner total (scanned barcodes of SNP participants), an error rate arises. Currently, if the total combined error rate of all Senior Nutrition Meal Sites exceeds five percent (5%), the County will not be reimbursed by Spurcewlse. Therefore, CONTRACTOR's data that is imported Into Sourcewlse's Care Access Database must not exceed an error rate of 5%.
If CONTRACTOR's Imported data exceeds an error rate of 5%, COUNTY will withhold a percentage of CONTRACTOR's Invoice equivalent to the percentage of the error rate exceeding the 5% threshold. For example, If CONTRACTOR has an error rate of 23%, COUNTY will withhold 18% (23% - 5%) of CONTRACTOR's Invoice for that month.
Should Sourcewlse decide to reimburse the County regardless of the combined error rate of all Senior Nutrition Meal Sites, then the Countywill not withhold any percentage of CONTRACTOR's Invoice regardless of CONTRACTOR
1 s error rate for that month.
