Summary: Local District expenses represent costs that are the sole responsibility of the individual  
District. Allocated expenses represent the District’s proportionate share of expenses made by District  
No. 2, the administrative District, on its behalf pursuant to either the Joint Administration Agreement or  
the Joint Outfall Agreement. These Agreements provide for the joint administration, technical support  
and management of the operations, maintenance, and capital costs associated with all of the shared  
facilities for all the signatory Districts, along with the methodology for determining the proportionate  
costs for each participating District. District No. 2 also acts as the Administrative District for the Solid  
Waste System expenses, which are managed pursuant to the Solid Waste Management System  
Agreement, the Los Angeles County Refuse Disposal Trust Fund Agreement, and a series of Joint  
Powers Agreements. District No. 2 also acts as the Administrative District for Stormwater Management  
expenses the Districts incur, and are later reimbursed for, in assisting their member cities and  
unincorporated Los Angeles County address stormwater compliance issues. A variety of financial  
reports providing additional context, including payment registers and previously approved budgets, are  
available on the Districts’ website at lacsd.org/financial-documents. This item is consistent with the  
Districts’ Guiding Principle of commitment to fiscal responsibility and prudent financial stewardship.

Summary: The Secondary Influent Pump Station (SIPS) at the Warren Facility has four roof-mounted  
exhaust fans that vent the exhaust from the SIPS engines. The support frames for the fans are cracked  
and require replacement. In addition, the existing exhaust fans are approximately 25 years old and have  
exceeded their expected useful lives. Warren Facility personnel have repeatedly repaired the support  
frames; however, the repairs are temporary and are no longer cost-effective. Given the age of the exhaust  
fans, the deteriorated condition of the support frames, and the recurring need for repairs, replacement of  
the exhaust fans and support frames is required. Pursuant to authority previously granted by the Board,  
the project will be completed utilizing the Job Order Contracting Program, which relies on  
pre-established, competitively-bid construction tasks that will accelerate project delivery and reduce  
administration and design costs. Staff has determined that the activities described are not subject to the  
provisions of the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA). The activities described herein do not  
constitute a “Project” as that term is defined in California Public Resources Code Section 21065 and  
Title 14 of the California Code of Regulations (“CEQA Guidelines”) Section 15378. This item is  
consistent with the Districts’ Guiding Principles to protect financial and facility assets through prudent  
investment and maintenance programs; and commitment to operational excellence (protection of public  
health and the environment, regulatory compliance, and cost effectiveness).  
REGULAR AGENDA  
REPORT ON BIDS AND ORDER EXECUTED CONTRACTS  
1.  
Summary: The Project will consist of the rehabilitation of approximately 3,236 feet of existing 24- and  
27-inch-diameter corroded concrete pipe and appurtenant structures that were constructed in the 1960s.  
The work is located within unincorporated Los Angeles County, as shown on the attached map. The bid  
summary/recommendation to award is attached. Staff has determined that the Project is exempt or  
otherwise not subject to the provisions of the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) pursuant to  
California Public Resources Code Section 21080(b)(4) and Title 14 of the California Code of  
Regulations (“CEQA Guidelines”) Section 15301. The proposed resolution, which is attached, declares  
the District’s intent to seek reimbursement for certain expenditures if bonds are issued for this Project.  
The resolution action does not commit the District to issue bonds; it identifies the intended use of bond  
proceeds and expands the timeframe for when expenditures could be reimbursed. This item is consistent  
with the Districts’ Guiding Principles to protect financial and facility assets through prudent investment  
and maintenance programs; and commitment to operational excellence (protection of public health and  
the environment, regulatory compliance, and cost effectiveness).

2.  
Summary: The Project will consist of the replacement of approximately 600 feet of 10- and  
12-inch-diameter corroded steel and cast iron pipe (Force Main No.1) with high-density polyethylene  
pipe and the rehabilitation of approximately 600 feet of the existing 12-inch-diameter corroded steel and  
cast iron pipe (Force Main No. 2), which were constructed in 1974 and 1983, respectively. The work is  
located within the City of Long Beach, as shown on the attached map.  
The bid  
summary/recommendation to award is attached. Staff has determined that the Project is exempt or  
otherwise not subject to the provisions of the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) pursuant to  
California Public Resources Code Section 21080(b)(4) and Title 14 of the California Code of  
Regulations (“CEQA Guidelines”) Section 15301 and 15302. The proposed resolution, which is  
attached, declares the District’s intent to seek reimbursement for certain expenditures if bonds are issued  
for this Project. The resolution action does not commit the District to issue bonds; it identifies the  
intended use of bond proceeds and expands the timeframe for when expenditures could be reimbursed.  
AECOM is the Engineer of Record for this Project, and retaining their engineering services to ensure  
compliance with the contract documents during construction has been determined to be the most  
cost-effective option given its responsibility for the design documents and competitive rates. This item  
is consistent with the Districts’ Guiding Principles to protect financial and facility assets through prudent  
investment and maintenance programs; and commitment to operational excellence (protection of public  
health and the environment, regulatory compliance, and cost effectiveness).

APPROVE AND ORDER EXECUTED AGREEMENT  
3.  
Summary: During peak demand periods, engineering consulting services are needed to augment the  
Districts’ staff responsible for design, construction support, and the development of special engineering  
studies and reports in support of design and construction, for various wastewater and solid waste  
projects. It is more cost and time-effective to use an on-call consultant to perform these services rather  
than issue separate Requests for Proposals for each project. Due to the number and variety of upcoming  
capital improvement projects, having multiple on-call consultants would ensure that one is available with  
the necessary expertise. Proposals were solicited and received from 13 consulting firms. AECOM,  
B&V, Carollo, GHD, and HDR were all deemed highly qualified to provide the required services at  
competitive rates. Services will be used on an as-needed basis for potentially all Districts. In accordance  
with the Purchasing Policy, District No. 2 will issue and administer the proposed agreements, and  
expenditures will be allocated according to actual costs attributable to each District. All contracts over  
$100,000 issued using On-Call Engineering Consulting Services will be reported to District No. 2.  
Contracts specific to Santa Clarita Valley Sanitation District, District 14, or District 20 will also be  
reported to those Districts. This item is consistent with the Districts’ Guiding Principle of commitment  
to fiscal responsibility and prudent financial stewardship.
