FROM: R. A. Hopkins, Director of Public Works
SUBJECT: City of Chula Vista's Strategy for the Acquisition of Additional Wastewater
Treatment Capacity
The following informa/ion is in/ended /0 upda/e /he Council on s/alTs s/ra/egy regarding /he
acquisi/ion of additional wastewater treatment capacity for the City of ClllIla Vista. While this
update includes some background informa/ion the Council is already aware of staff is available
to provide additional background information 011 the subject ifrequested.
The City of Chula Vista does not own or operate its own wastewater treatment plant. Instead, the
City, along with fourteeli (14) other participating agencies (PAs), sends its wastewater' to the
system managed by the Metropolitan Wastewater Department ("Metro") of the City of San Diego.
All the flow generated in the City is collected in several large trunk lines which ultimately connect
to the Metro interceptor system before being delivered to Metro's Wastewater Treatment Plants
(Point Loma Treatment Plant and Southbay Water Reclamation Plant) for treatment. Based on the
City's agreement with Metro, the City currently has 19.843 million gallons per day (mgd) of
treatment capacity rights in the Metro system. The City has also been allocated an additional
1.021 mgd as its' proportionate share of the capacity resulting from the completion of the 15mgd
South Bay Water Reclamation Plant. Therefore, the City has a total allocated capacity of
20.864mgd. The f01111al ratification of this additional capacity is expected to occur this year.
Recent flow data verified by staff in December 2008 indicates flows have decreased
approximately 2% over the past year (most likely due to increased water conservation efforts and
building vacancies), resulting in an annual average wastewater flow generated by the City of
Chula Vista of approximately 17mgd.
In 2005, the City completed the Wastewater Master Plan (WWMP) update conCUITent with the
General Plan update. As part of that effort, the City analyzed the impacts of various land use
alternatives at buildout. It was determined that under the "preferred" land use alte111ative, which
was later adopted, the City would be generating approximately 26.2mgd at buildout. This meant
that the City would need to increase its treatment capacity by approximately 5.34mgd. The
December 2008 development projections predict that the City would require additional treatment
capacity as early as 2018. The City can achieve this through one of two options: I) Acquire
(purchase) additional treatment capacity rights in the Metro System from another Metro Agency or
2) Construct an independent wastewater treatment plant in Chula Vista. Since the identification of
The Honorable Mayor and City Council

the treatment capacity constraint, the City has engaged in a variety of studies and discussions both
independently, and with other agencies, exploring these options.
AC{fUisition of Treatment CafJacitJl from Other Metro ParticifJatinf,! Af,!encies
Atter a review of flow generation and buildout needs of all the agencies in the Metro system, and
preliminary discussions with other PAs, staff has determined that the City of San Diego has the
largest amount of reserve capacity in the system. The City of San Diego has recently been
evaluating their projected wastewater treatment capacity needs at buildout to better understand
how much of their reserve capacity, if any, they would be willing to sell. In addition, the Metro
Joint Powers Authority (JP A) retained an independent consultant in 2007 to conduct a Capacity
Valuation Study to determine recommended pricing parameters that could be used by PAs in the
purchasing of treatment capacity in the system. The results of this study suggested a
recommended price for capacity in the Metro system of approximately $15 per gallon per day.
Although results from San Diego's internal capacity evaluation are still unknown to City staff,
preliminary discussions with San Diego City officials indicate if they are willing to sell treatment
capacity, the price may be significantly higher than the price recommended by the Capacity
Valuation Study obtained by the JP A (perhaps as high as $22 per gallon per day). A significant
amount of discussions would still be needed in order to negotiate any capacity acquisition from
San Diego, or a110ther P A.
Detel1l1ining a reasonable price for treatment capacity is further complicated by the fact that the
Point Loma treatment plant currently operates under a waiver from the EP A deferring upgrades to
the plant that cOlild cost as much as $1.5 billion. If the EP A does not continue to renew the
waiver, Chula Vista would most likely be asked to pay their fair share of the cost of the upgrades
based upon the percentage of flow being treated by the plant that was generated in Chula Vista.
Currently, the City of Chula Vista has rights to approximately 10% ofthe total treatment capacity
available at Point Loma meaning the City's share of the required upgrades could be approximately
$150 million.
Information Reeardillf! the Construction of a Treatment Plant in Chula Vista
Beginning in late 2004 the City began investigating the idea of constructing a sewage treatment
plant in the City of Chula Vista. At the time, LS Power (formerly Duke Energy) had a need for
recycled water to be used in the cooling process for their power plant. A study was commissioned
by the City of Chula Vista and the Sweetwater Authority ("Sweetwater") analyzing the feasibility
of constructing a wastewater treatment plant near the power plant that would be able to supply the
plant with recycled water generated through the treatment of wastewater. However, since the
completion of that study, the idea of providing recycled water to the power plant is no longer
deemed feasible due to uncertainty about the future of the power plant and the use of air-cooling
systems rather than water-cooling systems.
In 2006, through on-going coordination between the City of ChuJa Vista, the Otay Water District
COtay"), and Sweetwater, the three agencies determined that although the power plant option was
The Honorable Mayor and City Council

Page 3
no longer feasible, there was still a need for increasing the recycled water supply in the region. In
addition, Sweetwater was still interested in evaluating the feasibility of providing recycled water
to their customers. Consequently, the three agencies, with some additional grant financing from
San Diego County Water Authority (SDCW A), retained the consulting firm of RMC Water &
Environment to prepare a feasibility study to evaluate the feasibility of constructing a Wastewater
Reclamation Plant using Membrane Bioreactor (MBR) technology in the City ofChula Vista. The
goal of the project was to evaluate the feasibility of an MBR plant, which would reduce the City's
reliance on the City of San Diego (Metro) treatment facilities while allowing Otay and/or
Sweetwater to purvey recycled water to retail recycled water customers within their service areas.
Completed in October 2007, the results of the analysis showed that it was not economically
justifiable for Sweetwater to provide recycled water to their customers via a Chula Vista
wastewater treatment plant because they would need to construct an entire recycled water system
to deliver to water to their customers, but that it was justifiable for the Otay Water District because
they already had the necessary in frastructure in place. The analysis also detemlined that the net
present value of constructing an MBR plant seemed comparable to that of the City obtaining
capacity in the Metro system from another P A.
Current Status
Although the completion of these studies has provided a significant amount of infol111ation
regarding the cost of constructing an independent wastewater treatment plant using MBR
technology, there are still questions that need to be answered before the City can make a decision
on the best course of action to take. At this time, City staff, in coordination with staff from the
Otay Water District, is drafting a "Request for Proposals" as a preliminary step towards hiring a
consultant to evaluate several more options for the construction of a wastewater treatment plant in
the City ofChula Vista. The scope of work, currently being drafted by City and Otay Water staff,
seeks to answer questions regarding improvements required, and costs associated with, the
construction of an MBR treatment plant. More specifically, both agencies are interested in better
understanding the following issues including, but not limited to:
. Costs associated with the construction of a plant able to treat up to 6mgd (previous studies
only contemplated plant sizes able to treat up to 4mgd).
. Costs associated with various "fail-safe" options that would accommodate wastewater
flows in case of power outage or plant failure.
. Improvements needed to deliver recycled water to the currently identi Ged prime user, Otay
Water District, in adJition to the amount of potential revenue that would result.
. Available options and associated costs for the discharge of potentially unused recycled
water generated by the treatment plant.
Additional "optional" tasks the consultant may be asked to complete include research on available
grant funding options and assistance in applying for said grants to help fund the construction of
the treatment plant as well as assistance with two public workshops where the idea of a sewer
treatment plant could be explored with City residents so staff had a better understanding of public
The Honorable Mayor and City Council
February 2, 2009
Page 4
opinion and concerns regarding such a facility. Staff intends on limiting the cost of the study to a
total of $150,000 with Otay agreeing to pay for half. Chula Vista's portion of the cost would be
allocated from the Trunk Sewer Capital Reserve Fund which currently has sufficient funds
available to finance the study.
Completion of the study will provide information regarding the construction and operation of a
treatment plant, and enable staff to continue discussions with the City of San Diego or other
agencies within the Metro system regarding the price of purchasing additional treatment capaCIty,
and be able to give the City Council adequate information in order to detennine which path the
City should take in their overall effort to acquire additional wastewater treatment capacity.
Next Steps
Staff is in the process of finalizing the proposed scope of work for the study and an agreement
between the City of Chula Vista and the Otay Water District regarding the shared cost of the
study. The final feasibility study is anticipated to be completed this calendar year. If you have
any questions, please contact me at 409-5873 or Scott Tulloch.

Distinguished council members, ,
My name. is Dolores Cabrera. I have been an active member of the community and resident of Chula
Vista for 20 years. I am addressing you today because I am currently attempting to fix a problem that I
have with San Diego Gas and Electric, and have found them to be uncooperative and unwilling to
connect the electricity in the Service Delivery Point of my new property located at 725 Main Street in
Chula Vista. The reason San Diego Gas and Electric won't connect the electrical service is because the
electrical conduit pipe located under Main Street, a public street, is broken in two parts. SDG&E has told
me that if I don't fix the broken electrical utility pipe they will not provide my building with electrical
power. The electrical conduit pipe under Main Street was preexisting to the construction of my building.
SDG&E has an obligation to repair or replace any conduit pipe located under a public street in
accordance with the franchise granting agreement between City of Chula Vista and SDG&E. This
franchise establishes the obligation that SDG&E has to and I quote: "construct, erect, install, lay,
operate, maintain, use, repair, or replace,.....wires, conduits, transformers" in order to distribute
electricity to the Chula Vista public along, across, upon, under and over any public street.
It s not the responsibility of a private resident to fix the work done under a public street by another
company, person or entity, nor is it their responsibility to pay for preexisting work on a public street.
SDG&E is holding my property hostage by not allowing the power to run to the building, for who will
occupy a building where power is not available? Nowhere legally does it show where it is the
responsibility of business owners to repair a public utility line not installed by them. But there is legal
responsibility on behalf of SDG&E to repair or replace a broken electrical utility pipe. This legal
responsibility is clearly stated in the franchise granting agreement between the City of Chula Vista and
SDG&E. What precedent would the City of Chula Vista set if they made private residents responsible for
the upkeep and repair of public streets? What business owner would want to operate a business in this
type of environment?
I request your intervention with SDG&E in order to complete the work to connect the electricity to my
building. Since according to the Franchise Agreement you, the city council, have the authority to order
SDG&E to repair or replace the broken electrical conduit pipe underneath a public street such as Main
Street. I request your intervention with SDG&E to complete the work to connect the electricity to my
building.
I thank you in advance for your attention in this matter and it~ prompt ~esolution.

REVIEWED BY:
(4f5ths Vote Yes _ No-1L)
The City and San Diego Gas & Electric (SDG&E) have concluded negotiations and the City
Council approved a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) outlining the benefits established
through those negotiations on October 12, 2004 and are summarized herein. The City
adopted a resolution of intention to grant the franchises at its October 26, 2004 meeting. A
draft of the electricity franchise and gas franchise agreements, (Agreements) detailing the
terms and conditions of the proposed franchises where presented at that time. Minor
modifications have been made to address outstanding issues since that meeting. The final
drafts of the Agreements are attached (Attachment I and II).
RECOMMENDATION: That the City Council approve and place on first reading the
Ordinances granting a ten-year gas franchise and ten-year electric franchise, with a possible
additional new term of 20 years, to SDG&E.
BACKGROUND: SDG&E has held the City's two energy franchise Agreements since 1972.
The initial twenty-Five-year term expired on November 30, 1997. The City granted SDG&E
five-year Agreements on September 1, 1998. Both parties agreed at the time that the five-
year term would provide an appropriate "bridge" during the implementation of electricity
deregulation in California. The City continued to communicate with SDG&E regarding
municipal energy issues and monitor Public Utilities Commission activities during that five-
5-1

year period. The City also began formal negotiations with SOG&E in July of 2002,
approximately one year prior to the June 30, 2003 expiration date of the existing franchise
agreements. The City concluded negotiations with SOG&E in October, and Council adopted
an MOU outlining the conceptual framework for future relations between the City and SOG&E
on October 12, 2004. On October 26, 2004 the Council approved a resolution of intention,
which set a public hearing for November 9, 2004 to accept public comment and consider
granting the' proposed Agreements on the terms and conditions'summarized.therein.'
BOARD AND COMM1SION RECOMMENDATION: Not Applicable
DISCUSSION: Council's general direction to staff, at the beginning of the negotiations with
SOG&E was to obtain the best possible value in energy Agreements for the community,
without triggering the need for a surcharge or ratepayer increase. Additionally, Council
directed staff to make transmission line undergrounding their number one goal, and target the
Chula Vista Bayfront transmission lines as the first objective. Council also directed staff to
preserve future municipal energy options whenever possible. The proposed Agreements are
consistent with that direction. The following is a summary of the proposed terms and
conditions for the energy Agreements (Attachments I and II).
Items applicable to both franchise agreements:
. Franchise Fee: Franchise fee for the Electric Franchise will increase from 1.1 to
1.25%. The Gas Franchise Fee will remain at 2.0%. If the statutory Franchise Fee for
general law cities is increased during the term of the Franchise, SOG&E will pay the
higher rate to the City as soon as authorized for collection by the Califomia Public
Utilities Commission.
. Term: The initial term for both Agreements shall be for a ten-year period commencing
on January 1, 2005 and ending December 31, 2014. Provided all of SDG&E's
obligations under the MOU are materially satisfied, SDG&E will automatically receive a
new additional 20-year term upon expiration of the initial term.
. Utility Users Tax (UUT): To the extent allowed by law, SDG&E shall collee! UUT from
other electricity providers for remittance to the City.
. California Municipal Lands Use: SDG&E shall implement the provisions of California
Public Utilities Code Sections 6351, 6352, 6353, 6354 and 6354.1 and remit funds
collected to the City.
. System Upgrades: SOG&E agrees to include the City in the early implementation of
system-wide enhancements (e.g. infrastructure upgrades and ancillary services) to the
extent it is consistent with SDG&E's policy to prioritize and construct such system
enhancements.
. Indemnity: SDG&E will indemnify and hold the City harmless for liabilities proximately
resulting from any operations under the franchises.

The following item is applicable only to the Electric Franchise:
. Rule 20A - Undergrounding: SDG&E agrees to expend the City's existing Rule 20A
allocation of approximately $5 million towards the completion of undergrounding
projects identified in the MOU or as directed by the City. In addition, new allocations
of monies that may be drawn down for future undergrounding projects shall be made
at the rate of $2 million per year.
. - - -- - -".
The City and SDG&E have agreed to a number of other important community benefits that
are outlined in the MOU. A summary of the additional benefits in the MOU is as follows:
.. The City and SDGE will work together at the California Public Utilities Commission
("CPUC") to have the proposed 230kV line along the Bayfront corridor undergrounded
and the removal of two of the existing 138 kV lines and supporting structures, at an
estimated cost of $36-41 million.
. The City and SDG&E will work together at the CPUC to accomplish the
undergrounding of the remaining 138kV lines and supporting structures, along the
Bayfront corridor from the existing power plant area to the Sweetwater River, which is
anticipated to occur before the end of 2008. This will be accomplished through .the
use of some City 20A funds, which are estimated at $14 million. If needed, SDG&E
has agreed to advance the City up to $10 million of its 20A funds interest free to
complete the City portion of this undergrounding.
. The City has preserved its right to pursue Greenfield Development. If SDG&E fails to
fulfill their commitment to underground the Bayfront. by March 2010, the City can
initiate the option to do Greenfield Development.
. SDG&E has committed to work with the City to place future facilities along the Bayfront
underground and to maintain this area as an underground district.
. SDG&E commits to continue the City's 20A funding at a rate of $2 million per year for
the term of the electric franchise, which is the highest paid in SDG&E's territory and
will total $20 million.
. If all necessary federal, state and local permits are received and an alternative site can
be identified, SDG&E will, at its sole cost, relocate the existing switchyard from the
power plant site, at an estimated cost of $50 million.
. SDG&E will spend $375,000 on the creation of parks on the west side of Chula Vista
along its transmission corridor.
. SDG&E will spend $105,000 to screen and beautify existing substations within the
City.
5-3
Meeting Date 11/9/04
Page 4 of 1
. SDG&E will cooperate with the City's efforts to become a Community Choice
Aggregator
. Over the next five years, SDG&E will spend approximately $2 million annually to
ensure Chula Vista customers receive a representative portion of current and future
energy conservation and renewable energy projects for a value of $10 million. In
addition, SDG&E agrees to cooperatively work with the City to continue such Public
Purpose Funding for the life of the Franchise: -
. SDG&E will use the City as its exclusive issuer of SDG&E's Industrial Development
Bond issues. They estimate issuing $1.5 billion for projects within the next 10 years.
SDG&E has agreed to increase the City's fee from 25 basis points plus costs to 35
basis points plus costs, which will generate a net increase of approximately $1.5
million.
. Upon adoption of the franchise agreements, SDG&E will be the provider of electricity
to the Chula Vista residents and businesses; however, those same customers will
have the option to select the City as their electricity provider. The MOU maintains the
City's ability to pursue Community Choice Aggregation once the rules and regulations
are established by the CPUC.
The benefits established in the proposed Franchise Agreements and the MOU are part of the
current rate structure, and according to the City's discussions with SDG&E, these benefits will
not require a surcharge or rate increase. Should SDG&E fail to fulfill its responsibility to
underground the Bayfront transmission lines by March 2010, the City shall have the right to
pursue Greenfield Development. If the City chooses to pursue Greenfield Development,
SDG&E shall have the right to reduce the franchise fee rate for both Agreements to the
statutory rate provided for general law cities. By adopting the proposed resolution, the City
Council will grant two franchise Agreements to SDG&E' under the terms and conditions
described herein.
Since the adoption of the resolution of intention on October 26, 2004, staff has continued to
work with SDG&E to finalize the provisions of the Agreements. A number of minor wording
changes have been incorporated to clarify the terms of the Agreements. Of significance is a
modification to the way the payment to the City is calculated. Previously, SDG&E made a
payment in August based upon the previous years franchise fee. Staff has found this has
resulted in accounting issues and overpayments. As a result the new franchise has the
August payment based upon actual gross receipts. Additionally, provisions have been added
or modified to allow the City to sue for forfeiture of the franchise in certain situations and to
require SDG&E to notify the City of any sale or transfer of the franchise. The indemnification
clause has been modified to include a comprehensive provision reqUiring SDG&E to
indemnify and hold harmless the City and its officers from any and all liability for damages
proximately resulting from any operations under the franchise.

FISCAL IMPACT: Council's approval of staffs recommendation will generate a net increase
to the General Fund. If the Council elects to approve the proposed Agreements, the
electricity franchise fee rate will increase from 1.1 % to 1.25% and generate approximately
$2.1 million in new revenues during the initial ten-year term of the franchise.
Separate from the proposed Agreements. the general fund would receive; a one-time
--payment. of $250;000; and -up-to -$-1.5 million in additional -lndustrial--Development Bond-
processing fees over the initial ten-year agreement term_ Additionally, at the end of the initial
term and later, the City is likely to benefit from increased land values that are a result of the
energy infrastructure improvements and increased development opportunities. The general
fund is also likely to generate substantial avoided costs from the implementation of public
energy conservation or renewable projects partially funded under the renewable energy and
related public purpose programs.

practices and electrical codes enforced by the inspection authorities in
SDG&E's service area. We have endeavored to bring them all together In a
single, convenient form for easy use.
Here is a list of references on which this manual is based:
(a) Rules for Overhead Electric Line Construction: General Order 95 of
the Public Utilities Commission, Stote of California,
(b) Rules for Construction of Underground Electrical Supply and
Communication Systems> General Order 128 of the Public Utilities
Commission, State of California,
