5 BUDGET/PERSONNEL COMMITTEE April 10, 2015 Page 3 of 7 DRAFT 6. UPDATE ON EMPLOYEE CERTIFICATION AND CAREER INCENTIVE PROGRAM Mr. Sciuto stated that the Agency agreed to revise the Certification and Career Incentive Program as part of the employee MOU s that were approved by the Board in June He explained that Staff created a draft incentive plan which was reviewed by the employee groups. As a result of the feedback received from the employee groups, the draft incentive plan was split into the following two programs: Certification Incentive Program and Career Incentive Program. The Certification Incentive Program would include positions that require a certain level of certification and the Career Incentive Program would include those employees pursuing the educational track. Staff will be meeting with the employee groups to finalize the language in the program and staff s goal is to bring this item to the BPC for approval at the May 8 meeting. In response to Mr. Allion s question, Mr. Sciuto responded that he is unsure if money was budgeted for this item for FY 14/15 but he would find out and notify the BPC. He stated that based on the incentives that are currently being proposed and existing staff educational level and certifications, staff estimates the cost to be in the $20K range. Mr. Sciuto reminded the BPC that the deadline, per the MOU s, for implementing this program was January 1, He stated that if the proposed programs are approved by the Board, the effective date will be retroactive to January 1, 2015 including any monetary payments. Information only no action is required. 7. RECEIVE FY 14/15 MID-YEAR BUDGET REPORT AND PROVIDE UPDATE ON FY 15/16 BUDGET PROCESS Ms. Hannah provided the BPC with an overview of the Mid-Year Budget Report and an update on the FY 15/16 Budget Process. With regards to the FY 15/16 Budget Process, Ms. Hannah stated that staff is in the process of preparing a draft FY 15/16 budget. She noted that the budget will include a change in the current account structure to reflect more functional budgetary control and greater transparency. The draft FY 15/16 budget would be presented to the BPC at the May 8 meeting. Ms. Hannah, in providing the BPC with a FY 14/15 six month budget update, stated that overall the Agency budget was consistent with the adopted budget for the period from July 1 through December 31, She reviewed the Revenues and Budget to Actual Expenditures & Encumbrances charts that were provided to the BPC, which illustrated that with a mid-year target of 50%,

6 BUDGET/PERSONNEL COMMITTEE April 10, 2015 Page 4 of 7 DRAFT revenues and expenditures were at 51.8% and 50.6%, of their respective goals. With regards to revenues, Ms. Hannah stated that revenues were trending greater than the adopted budget primarily due to increased industrial user fees and unbudgeted interruptible rate fees. She noted that while industrial user fees were within 73% of their budgeted amount at mid-year, the variance is due largely to the projected closure of one industrial facility at the time the budget was adopted, followed by an unforeseen opening of an alternate facility. The revenues chart that was provided to the BPC showed that interruptible rate fees are projected to generate $435,000 in this fiscal year. She noted that while the interruptible rate fees were not included in the FY 2014/15 budget, they were responsible for over $233,000 in additional mid-year revenues. Discussion from the BPC continued regarding the interruptible rate and whether the Agency recovers all of the incremental costs. Mr. Sciuto stated that all of the big cost items, such as power and chemicals are included in the rate. Some minor hard to define costs may be not be included. Mr. Israel added that these are still interim interruptible rates and the Agency plans on setting a permanent rate and will ensure it covers the Agency s overhead. Ms. Hannah, in reviewing the Expenditures Chart, stated that it is projected that the Agency s operating expenditures will be less than the adopted budget. Electricity costs for the Regional Treatment Plant (RTP) and pump station operations are anticipated to exceed their line item budgets by approximately $200,000. She explained that the increases are primarily due to the result of downtime associated with the Cogen plant, rising utility costs, and increased operations related to the interruptible rate revenues. She anticipates that salary savings due to position transitions and labor charges transferred to capital improvement projects will offset increased electricity costs. With regards to the Agency s investments, Ms. Hannah stated that each year the Agency reviews investments to determine best yields and maturities. She went over some of the investment highlights and stated that as of December 31, 2014, the cash and investment portfolio was comprised of $9.2 million. Of this amount, $3.5M is accessible within 24 hours; and $5.7M is subject to two day to six month constraints. The Agency s funds represent $8.3M or 90% of the portfolio, while Reclamation Funds represent approximately $912,000 or 10% of the invested funds. Ms. Hannah stated that the investment portfolio is in compliance with all provisions of the adopted investment policy and with applicable provisions of state statutes. With regards to indirect costs, Ms. Hannah stated that she will be meeting with staff from MCWRA today to review different models. One model they will be reviewing is one used by the City of Capitola which charges indirect costs as

Mr. Allion stated that when you break up budgets like this and hold individual managers responsible he gets concerned with holding them accountable for costs they have no control over. Mr. Allion provided some suggested revisions to some of the charts presented. Ms. Hannah stated she would make the revisions. Ms. De La Rosa thanked Ms. Hannah for the report and stated that it was easy to understand. ACTION TAKEN: On a motion by Mr. Allion, seconded by Ms. De La Rosa, the Budget/Personnel Committee recommends that the Board receive the report and provide any recommendations. 8. CONSIDER AWARD OF CONTRACT FOR GEOGRAPHIC INFORMATION SYSTEM (GIS) SUPPORT SERVICES Ms. Gonzalez stated that the Agency does not currently have a Geographic Information System (GIS). She explained that GIS is a computer system that allows you to map, model, query, and analyze large quantities of data within a single database according to their location. Ms. Gonzalez went over the various benefits of having a GIS such as the ability to create maps that are informative and help make high level decisions within an organization. Ms. Gonzalez stated that staff has researched the various software configurations of GIS and received a proposal from Arete Systems for support services in implementing the GIS platform at the Agency. The implementation support contract will include GIS Software Purchase support, CMMS Support, GIS needs assessment, Preliminary GIS Data Model Development, and GIS Data Conversion on a time and materials basis. The highlights of this contract will include initial training on the use of the GIS software, evaluation of CMMS software for compatibility with GIS, assistance with identifying where GIS will improve the Agency business processes, GIS model development and initial data conversion. Ms. Gonzalez stated that staff has met with Alex Johnson of Arete Systems twice over the past six months to discuss the steps for initial GIS implementation at the Agency. Mr. Johnson proposed a bare bones approach to implementation that can be added onto as we need additional data added to the system and as

8 BUDGET/PERSONNEL COMMITTEE April 10, 2015 Page 6 of 7 DRAFT additional users are included. The proposal received from Arete Systems is based on Mr. Johnson s hourly rate of $115. She noted that the items within the contract would be flexible for Agency staff to request assistance in areas as they are needed. The contract would not exceed 165 hours at $115 per hour for a total of $18,975. Mr. Sciuto added that although this purchase is below Keith s authorized purchasing level, staff wanted to bring this item before the BPC because in order to implement a robust GIS program, additional costs will be incurred over time. Mr. Le stated that while he is in support of this purchase he would like to see a Master IT plan for the Agency. In response to Mr. Le s comment, Mr. Sciuto stated that at the March Board meeting the board approved a contract for the development of an Information Technology Strategic Plan. Mr. Sciuto also noted that staff has been taking tours of others Agencies to see what GIS and CMMS systems they are using and receiving their feedback. ACTION TAKEN: On a motion by Mr. Allion, seconded by Ms. De La Rosa, the Budget/Personnel Committee recommends that the Board approve a contract with Arete Systems in the not to exceed amount of $18,975 for GIS support services. 9.

10 MEMORANDUM TO: FROM: BUDGET/PERSONNEL COMMITTEE TORI HANNAH, CHIEF FINANCIAL OFFICER (Via Keith Israel, General Manager) DATE: MAY 8, 2015 SUBJECT: UPDATE ON FY 15/16 BUDGET OVERVIEW: The preliminary draft of the Fiscal Year 2015/16 operational revenues and expenditures are attached for reference (Attachment 1). The estimated net operating difference of $3.5 million is planned to be allocated among significant maintenance projects, capital equipment, and capital projects. The operational revenues and expenditures may change, as staff receives updates on revenue trends, identifies cost-savings opportunities, and prioritizes capital outlay. The General Fund reserve level is projected to be above the $2 million reserve policy requirement. A discussion of key areas is included in the subsequent sections. OPERATING REVENUES: The FY 15/16 revenues are initially projected to be 5.7% or $1.27 million greater than the FY 14/15 Approved Budget. The Agency is in the second year of a three-year rate increase, with Residential User Rates increasing by 3.4%. A listing of FY 15/16 user rates by category is included in Attachment 2. Residential and Commercial Users provide for over 86% of Agency revenues. The combined increase from these two categories is anticipated to be $713,000; with an additional $100,000 increase associated with a new Industrial User. The remaining annual increase is largely attributed to $453,000 in new revenues associated with the Interruptible Water Supply Rate. OPERATING EXPENDITURES: While the Agency is still in the process of reviewing cost savings opportunities and evaluating major expenditure requests, key changes included a negotiated Joint Powers Authority Member Entities: Boronda County Sanitation District, Castroville Community Services Water District, County of Monterey, Del Rey Oaks, Fort Ord, Marina Coast Water District, Monterey, Moss Landing County Sanitation District, Pacific Grove, Salinas, Sand City, and Seaside.

11 3.4% cost of living increase and an unplanned PERS rate increase. The PERS rate growth for classic Tier I employees includes a new fixed base and a percentage rate that results in a combined increase of greater than 4% points. These two changes represent approximately a 5.7% or $540,000 increase in Wages and Benefits. Preliminary additional costs associated with the Salinas Agricultural Wash/Interruptible Water Supply include $100,000 in additional electricity costs for the pump stations and $90,000 for Ferric Chloride. It is the Agency s goal to limit increases in the Services and Supplies category equivalent to the prior year rate of 1.3% or at a maximum of 2%. STAFFING: There are no major staffing changes, but some minor modifications for consideration: An addition of one summer intern in the Engineering and Safety Departments: This person will help with routine tasks in both departments and will facilitate the completion of required projects with repetitive duties. The budget impact for Fiscal Year 2015/2016 will be $6,500. The reclassification of the current Contract Recycled Water Program Assistant: This position is proposed to become a regular, full-time employee and change the title to Water Projects Coordinator with emphasis on public outreach and grant coordination/legislative advocacy with an associated change in job description. The impact on the FY 15/16 budget will be an additional $25,000 for benefits and most costs will continue to be funded from UR502 and CP255. A proposed structural change to the organization is as follows (Attachment 3): Have the Chief Financial Officer and the Human Resources Administrator report directly to the General Manager: This change will allow more direct information transfer in these two areas to the General Manager. Also, the reduction of scope of employees for the new AGM will promote more focus on Operations, Maintenance, and Engineering. CAPITAL PURCHASES AND CAPITAL IMPROVEMENTS Preliminary estimates indicate there will be approximately $3.5 million in operating transfers and $600,000 in Sewer Capacity Charges available for capital improvements and purchases. Staff is in the process of reviewing major expenditure requests that could be applicable to the Major Operation and Maintenance, Capital Equipment, Capital Projects, and Urban Reclamation Funds. A list of items for funding consideration is included in Attachment 4 and 5.

12 FORTHCOMING BUDGET ACTIVITIES Staff will review specific key changes to the budget and discuss fund balances at the meeting. In addition, staff will continue to refine the preliminary estimates. Based on input received from the BPC, staff will prepare the full budget for the Board s Budget Workshop on June 8, As stated previously, this is a preliminary draft budget. There are still a number of items that need to be discussed and finalized. Information received from the Budget and Personnel Committee will be incorporated into the May 28 Board Meeting.

21 MEMORANDUM TO: FROM: BUDGET/PERSONNEL COMMITTEE JERRY VALLADAO, ASSOCIATE ENGINEER (Via Keith Israel, General Manager) DATE: MAY 8, 2015 SUBJECT: CONSIDER AWARD OF CONSTRUCTION CONTRACT FOR THE GRIT PIPING REPLACEMENT PROJECT BACKGROUND: Grit removal from wastewater is essential to any treatment plant as a preliminary treatment process to protect equipment by reducing the likelihood of pipes clogging and preventing wear and tear to mechanical equipment from grit abrasion. Grit removal also helps prevent grit from accumulating in the downstream processes such as within the primary clarifiers resulting in loss of usable volume. Two aerated grit chambers are used to settle grit from wastewater at MRWPCA s Regional Treatment Plant. Wastewater flow from the headworks is split to either or both of the two aerated grit chambers. Air is supplied to four diffuser headers in each grit chamber. Aeration imparts a rolling motion in the wastewater as it flows through the grit chambers. This helps to settle the grit into the four hoppers in the bottom of each chamber while keeping the organic matter in suspension. Grit slurry, consisting of sand, dirt and other small particles, is pumped from the hopper and conveyed by piping to the two grit mitts by eight pumps. The grit mitt settling tank is designed to effectively separate and settle the grit from the water. As the grit is conveyed out of the settling tank, it is lightly washed, dewatered, and discharged into a dumpster. The decant liquid flows back to the post grit area for treatment. The grit piping that discharges the grit slurry to the grit mitts is in need of repair and was not budgeted for this Fiscal Year 14/15. Much of the piping is the original piping that was installed when the Regional Treatment Plant was constructed back in the late 1980s. The piping is in poor condition and has Joint Powers Authority Member Entities: Boronda County Sanitation District, Castroville Community Services Water District, County of Monterey, Del Rey Oaks, Fort Ord, Marina Coast Water District, Monterey, Moss Landing County Sanitation District, Pacific Grove, Salinas, Sand City, and Seaside.

22 deteriorated to a point where a portion of the piping failed last year due to corrosion, resulting in flooding the grit pump pit. Please see the photos below showing the flooded grit pump pit. The amount of wastewater flowing into the grit pump pit overwhelmed the existing sump pumps. There have also been two separate incidents after the initial flooding where the grit piping has sprung additional small leaks due to corrosion. In the past, ferric chloride has been introduced upstream within the headworks to help the downstream processes remove suspended solids in wastewater, but it was determined that adding ferric wasn t cost effective. Ferric is fairly corrosive and could have further reduced the life of the grit piping which is just downstream of the headworks. Staff has determined that it is time for the piping to be replaced with new glass lined ductile iron piping, change the alignment slightly to reduce the amount of bends, and install additional pipe supports. The project was put out to bid on March 5 th, and a mandatory pre-bid meeting was held on March 18 th. Five potential bidders attended the mandatory pre-bid meeting. The bid opening was held on March 26 th, and 5 bids were received. Below is a summary of the bids received. Bidder Location Bid Amount Special Service Paso Robles, CA $107, Contractors, Inc. D.W. Nicholson Hayward, CA $135, Corporation Whitaker Construction Paso Robles, CA $158, Group, Inc. Anderson Pacific Santa Clara, CA $168, Engineering Construction, Inc. TNT Industrial Contractors, Inc. Sacramento, CA $174, Based on the above information, the successful bid was received from Special Service Contractors, Inc. (Special Service Contractors) for a total of $107, Special Service Contractors comes highly recommended by all of the agencies that were contacted during their reference check. Staff requests that the Budget and Personnel Committee (B&P Committee) recommend to the Board approval of a construction contract with Special Service Contractors. Staff also requests that the B&P Committee recommend Board approval for Special Service Contractors to begin the project in early June prior to approving the Fiscal Year 15/16 budget at the June 29 th Board Meeting. This project will be budgeted for Fiscal Year 15/16. Staff recommends project construction should begin as soon as possible to prevent any future flooding and to provide a safer environment for Maintenance and Operations Personnel when

23 working down in the grit pump pit. If the approval is granted to begin the project in early June, some submittal review will occur during this Fiscal Year 14/15. It is estimated that approximately $3,000 for in-house staff time will be spent this Fiscal Year 14/15 in project management and reviewing submittals. This amount will be absorbed by savings obtained so far in the Fiscal Year 14/15 Capital Improvement Program. The piping, fittings, and supports will be obtained and actual project construction will occur during Fiscal Year 15/16. Therefore, most of the work and the first payment to Special Service Contractors will be made after July 1 st during Fiscal Year 15/16. The amount proposed for the Fiscal Year 15/16 budget for this project is $140,000 including staff time. RECOMMENDATION: Staff requests that the Budget and Personnel Committee recommend to the Board approval of a construction contract with Special Service Contractors in an amount of $107, with an additional $32,000 for in-house staff time and also requests B&P Committee recommend to the Board approval to begin the project in early June prior to approving the Fiscal Year 15/16 budget at the June 29 th Board Meeting. The majority of the construction will occur during Fiscal Year 15/16 and will have a project budget of $140,000. Attachment 1: Pictures of Grit Pump Pit Flooding

26 MEMORANDUM TO: FROM: BUDGET/PERSONNEL COMMITTEE PAUL SCIUTO, DEPUTY GENERAL MANAGER (Via KEITH ISRAEL, GENERAL MANAGER) DATE: MAY 8, 2015 SUBJECT: CONSIDER APPROVAL OF RESOLUTION FOR EXCEPTION TO THE 180-DAY WAIT PERIOD FOR HIRING A RETIREE (ISRAEL) BACKGROUND: In 2012, Assembly Bill No. 340 was signed by the Governor and added various sections to the California Government Code. These modifications are generally referred to as the Public Employee Pension Reform Act (PEPRA). One of the provisions of this new language governs post-retirement employment for retirees within the same retirement system. Specifically, (f) prohibits a retiree from being employed for a period of 180 days following retirement. There are limited exceptions to the 180-day waiting period for post-retirement employment within the same retirement system. One of those exceptions allows an employer to employ a recent retiree before the expiration of 180 days if the employer certifies the nature of the employment and that the appointment is necessary to fill a critically needed position. The appointment must be approved by the governing body in a public meeting and may not be placed on the consent agenda. Mr. Keith Israel has served as the General Manager since September During that time he oversaw the development of the Groundwater Recharge (GWR) Project up to its current state.

34 MEMORANDUM TO: FROM: BUDGET/PERSONNEL COMMITTEE PAUL SCIUTO, DEPUTY GENERAL MANAGER (Via Keith Israel, General Manager) DATE: MAY 8, 2015 SUBJECT: CONSIDER APPROVAL OF EMPLOYEE CERTIFICATION AND CAREER INCENTIVE PROGRAMS BACKGROUND: Last month staff presented to the Committee an update on the Certification and Career Incentive Programs. The Certification Incentive Program (Attachment 1) includes positions that require a certain level of certification and the employees pursuing the educational track will qualify under the Career Incentive Program (Attachment 2). In order for the employees to qualify for Program B in either program, they must achieve the certification level that is above their current required level of certification. For example, if a Grade III is required for the position based off of the job description and the employee obtained a Grade IV, they would receive a 2% increase, not the 4%. The max obtainable is 4%. The Certification Incentive Program addresses two types of certifications each with two different programs. The first is for positions whose job description requires a certification through the California Water Environment Association (CWEA). Each certification has four grade levels that the employee can obtain. The chart below illustrates the amount an employee can receive for each grade level. Program A (CWEA Certification) Program B (CWEA Certification) Grade I * $200 (One-time Bonus) Grade III 2% Increase Grade II * $250 (One-time Bonus) Grade IV* 2% Increase * Or, equivalent position.
