HomeMy WebLinkAboutAgenda Report - July 17, 1991 (116)CITY OF LODI 'I AGENDA TITLE: Retention of Consultant Impact Report for White Expansion Project NIE ENG DATE: July 17, 1991 PREPARED BY: Publ ; c Worms Director for Preparation of Supplemental Environmental Slough Water Pollution' Control Facility RECOMMENDED ACTION: That the City Council authorize retaining the firm of Whitley, Burchett and Associates to prepare a supplemental Environmental Impact Report (EIR) for the White Slough Expansion Project. BACKGROUND INFORMATION: The California Regional Water Quality Control Board staff is presently preparing a National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (NPDES) permit for our White Slough Water Pollution Control Facility Expansion Project. The present draft NPDES permit prepared by the Regional Board is proposing a 10/10 mg/L for BOD and suspended solids for all White Slough discharges. The City's present discharge requirements are 20/20 mg/L for BOD and suspended solids in the summer months, and 30/30 mg/L for BOD and suspended solids in the winter months. The Regional Board has indicated that they are requiring the 10/10 mg/L discharge requirement because there was a statement in the City's final EIR document that indicated that, "Installation of the proposed clarifiers and other components, in conjunction with aeration system improvements recently completed, would allow the Water Pollution Control Facility to produce domestic effluent having 10 mg/L or less of BOD and suspended solids more than 90 percent of the time." It is felt that wben our my plant expansion comes on-line, NAe will initially be able to meet the 10/10 requirement; however, as the plant approaches 80%capacity (approximately 7 mgd) , the City would have to construct sand filters at a cost of $1.5 to $3 millionpplus a substantial increase in annual maintenance costs in order to meet the 10/10 mg/L requirement. W have been meeting and negotiating with the Regional Board staff on this item for some time. The Regional Board's legal counsel has indicated that if Nie provide additional CEQA documentation on a lesser discharge requirement, they would be able to modify their proposed 10/10 mg/L discharge requirement. NIK Burchett and my staff met with the Regional Board staff to discuss what additional CEQA documentation was needed and the requirements for changing the 1988 EIR. Attached is a proposal from Whitley, Burchett and Associates which accomplishes this task with the minimum amount of effort. The cost of this work would be approximately $36,000. The proposal submitted has been reviewed by Lodi's Community Development Director and it is felt that the procedure proposed is APPROVED: THOMAS A. PETERSON Vrl City Manager CC -1 CW5-,WPC24/TXTW.02M (C0. COM) July 5, 1991 r-- EIR for White Slough July 17, 1991 Page 2 appropriate and the employee hours submitted are in line. I feel strongly that the City should do whatever is possible to reduce the discharge requirements in the proposed NPDES permit. I would therefore recommend that the City Council approve the retention of Whitley, Burchett and Associates to accomplish the work shown in their attached proposal.

This work will be carried out by Whitley, Burchett and Associates, Inc.(WBA), in associationwith EIP Associates of San Francisco. We have tied to tailor a scope of wk vilh the minimum effort possible to develop the information needed by the RWQCB staffto finalize waste discharge requirements for White Slough WPCF. We believe that the proposed technical analyses, based on statistical analysis of the city's self-monitoring data, information frnmthe literature and theoretical calculations of future water quality conditions will be sufficient. •The objective of the analyses will be to determine ifthe discharge of 20/20 effluent at the design flow of 8S mgd will have a significant impact on the quality of the receiving waters. It vOl also determine if the expanded facilities will have the capacity to store or land dispose of the treated effluentwhenever the dissolved oxygen concentration in the receiving waters falls below 5.0 mg/L, from whatever cause. We believe that the time schedule presented in our letterof May 71h remains reasonable and will permit completion of the technical and environmental work necessary to support the required modifications to the EIR. Review documents, meet with RWQCB staff and completeN3tiae of Preparation 2 weeks Public review and comment for NOP and technical studies and preliminary environmental 6 weeks (concurrently) Complete Draft EIR (including city staff review) 6 weeks Public review and comment period for Draft EIR 6 weeks Prepare Final EIR (including cby staff review) 4 weeks Total time 24 weeks The proposed scope of work, estimated labor requirements and budget are attached for your review and approval. Estimated labor costs are included at normal WBA and EEP billing rates. Reimbursible expenses include printing, phone, fax, postage and otipsdirect project related expenses at cost. Mileage would be billed at $0.25 per mile. If the City prefers, a "not -to -exceed" fee of $35,800 (including a contingency allowance of 10%), would be acceptable. Billings would not exceed this amount without prior approval of the city. 33 QUAIL COURT. SUITE 300.

Please call me if you have any questions or to arrange any necessary meetings. We look fozaard to your favorable consideration of this proposal. Very truly yours, WHITLEY, BURL TETT and ASSOCIATES, Inc. Max E. Burchett, PR cc: John Davis, ElP Associates City of Lodi White Slough WPCF SupplementalElR PROPOSED SCOPE OF WORK To determine whether there "I be a significant impact on the beneficial uses of the receiving waters if revised Waste Discharge Requirements are adopted for the expanded White Slough Water Pollution Control Facility (WPCF). Revised requirements would be as follows: BOD5 Susoended Solids 1 June - 15 October 20 mg/L 20 mg/L 16 October - 31 May 30 mg/L 30 mgfL Methodology: The analysis ofcurrent and potential future impacts on the receiving waters will be carried out in four parts: 1. Quantify existing conditions in the receiving waters 2. Quantify existing and fittae effluent characteristics 3. Predict impact of future discharges on the receiving waters 4. Evaluate existing effluent storage and land disposal facilities to accomodate design flow if receiving water D.O. falls below 5.0 mg/L. The results of the analytical work will be used to prepare a S upplemental EIR for the current White Slough WPCF expansion and upgrading project. The revised EIR will provide the basis for the adoption of final waste discharge requirements for the White Slough WPCF by the Central Valley Regional Water Quality Control Board Task Descriptions: The following tasks will be performed to prepare the required supplemental EIR: 7mc 1 - Existing Receiving Water Conditions. Three separate analyses will be carried out for this talc. The fust analysis will quantify the existing conditions in the receiving waters resulting f3mn the current effluent discharges faun the White Slough treatment plant. Approximately 4 years of existing self -monitor i ng data will be analyzed for dissolved oxygen levels in Dredger Cut and Bishop Curt. The data will tre statistically characterized for mean, standard deviation and frequency of occurrence. Secondly, a correlation between existing effluent BOD and receiving water D.O. concentrations will be developed, if possible. The third analysis will utilize the results of the recently completed dilution study to assess the impact of physical di ludon on the concentration of BOD, suspended solids and D.O in the receiving waters. Comparison of the results of the BOD/D.O. correlations from above with the physical dilution estimates will provide an estimate of the effect of oxygen uptake in the receiving L )D391 Page 1 6/12/91 waters, the so-called "oxygen sag" effect. In this analysis, any depression of D.O. greater than would be predicted by physical dilution alone can be attributed to the exertion of BCD in the receiving waters. Task 2 - Existing and Future Effluent Characteristics. Existing and future effluent characteristics will be statistically evaluated in this usk to provide the basis for assessing current and future impacts cf the White Slough WPCF discharge on the receiving waters. Actual White Slough WPCF effluent quality data for a minimum of two years will be evaluated for mean, standard deviation and frequency cf occurrence. The results of this analysis will be compared with published data f3m the literature for other activated sludge plants similar to White Slough WPCF. Future effluent quality will be predicted using the above published data and design criteria for the expanded FftA-- Slough WPCF. The results of the analysis will be presented as a frequency distribution of expected future effluent BOD and suspended solids concentrations and mass emission loadings on the receiving waters. Task 3 - Estimated Impact of Future Discharges on Receiving Waters. This task will consist of two separate analyses. Fust, the results of the previous tasks will be used to predict the future impact of the treated effluent on the receiving waters. Using projections of the future effluentcharacteristics (Task 2) and the assessment of the impact of the curren t dischargeon the receiving waters (Task 1), it shouldbe possible to estimatethe impact of the fu= dischargeon the receiving waters. The results of this analysiswill be checked by performing theoretical calculationsof the effectof the future discharge on the D.O. of the receiving waters. This analysiswill be the equivalentofthe classical "oxygen sag" analysis, except that it will beper LOML - using steady-stateequations from the literature developed for tidal estuaries. This analysis vin be carried out under the direction of Dr. George Tchobanoglous, Professor of Civil Engineering at the University of California, Davis. Values of the theoretical constants for dispersion of constituents in the tidally influenced receiving waters will be derived San the actual field data taken during the recent Dredger Cu t dilution study. If it is found that a significant impact will result fran the use of the revised waste discharge requirements, the allowable concentrations of BOD and suspended solids to prevent adverse impacts von be estimated. Task 4 - Evaluate Existing Effluent and Land Disposal Facilities. The results of the above analyses will be compared with design criteria in existing documents (e.g. contract documents, planning and design reports, existing EIR, etc.) to determine if the existing effluent storage and land disposal facilities are adequate to accomodate future design flow rates. Task 5 - Prepare Supplemental EMR. The results from the above analyses will be used by FKP Associates to prepare the required supplemental EIR. The wmk is divided into five subtasks, as described below. Subtask 5.1- Prepare Notice of Preparation. MmV governmental agencies will be involved in the environmental process, some as permitting agencies and others as reviewers. When an EIR is to be prepared oft a proposed project or action, it is normal to begin the environmental review process by sending a Notice of Preparation (NOP)to all parties, including governmental agencies. A NOP will be prepared by EM, together with an Initial Study. The NOP will include a brief description of the proposed action, and an Initial Study will be included indicating the environmental elements that might be significantly affected by the proposed action. The NOP and LOD391 Page 2 6/12/91 Initial Stud will be sent to the State Clearinghouse and a mailing list of agencies, organizations and individualsdeveloped by the City of Lodi for the cdigi al EIR. Recipientscf the NOP have M days within which to respond with comments and suggestions. Subtask S.' Review Responses to the NOP. EIP Associates will review the responses to the NOP to ensure that all issues are addressed in the Supplemental Draft EIR. Although contacts with government agencieswill be made formally through the NOP process as described above, it is usually worthwhile to meet with certain agency staff members to discuss their concerns. The following agencies will be contacted directly: • California Regional Water Quality Control Board, Central Valley Region • CaliforniaDepartmentof Fish and Gam • San Joaquin County Halli41'lanning and Public Works Departments In addition tithe government agencies, it may also be useful to establish lines of communication with other interestedparties. SubtasL 5.3 - Prepare Administrative Sunt lemental Draft M. EIP staff will utilize the data gathered ft,an the resul is of the studies conducted in M3 is 1, 2, 3 and 4 above to prepare an Administrative Supplemental Draft Environmental Impact Report (ASDEIR) fwtheproposed aetim. The analysis TAM focus on flee potential effects cf the proposed discharge on receiving water quality, particularly biochemical oxygen demand, suspended solids and dissolved oxygen. Three copies of the ASDEIR w i I I be submitted for review by the City of Lodi. Subtask 5.4 -gpare $Qlemental Draft EIR. Following Ci review of the ASDEIR, EIP will prepare and publish the Supplemental Draft EIR ( . Fi y copies of the SDEIR will be printed. EIP will be responsible for distributing the 3=. A Notice of Completion will be f fled the State OfficeofpPlanning and Research. Subtask !_S pare SupWen=tal Final ETR. Responses to all written comments on the SEM will be prepared. It is proposed that one meeting be held by the project team to review comments received, discuss approaches and methods to resolve sensitive or controversial issues, and review the draft responses. EIP w i I I prepare the Response to Commentsdocw ent, which together With the SDEIRwill constitute theSupplemental Final EIR (SFEIR). Fifty copies cfthe Response to Comments documentwill be printed.
