EXHIBIT A
DESCRIPTION OF PROJECT
The project consists of implementation of the Wastewater
Management Plan adopted by the City of San Luis Obispo. This
recommended plan is described in Chapter 8 of the Wastewater
Management Plan dated October 1987. The project consists of three
elements: upgrade of wastewater collection- system; improvements to
the wastewater treatment plant; and review of the potential
beneficial use options.
1. WASTEWATER COLLECTION SYSTEM
The wastewater collection system consists of 150 miles of
sewer lines and eight pumping stations. The collection system has
experienced high level of infiltration and inflow ( I/I) .
Cost-effective analysis will be conducted to determine if (a) the
collection system should be rehabilitated to reduce I/I; or (b)
larger relief sewers should be built; or (c) additional storage ponds
should be constructed; or (d ) the most cost.-effective combination of
the above alternatives. An implementation program and a preliminary
design for the selected improvements to the collection system will be
developed during pre-design studies.
2. WASTEWATER TREATMENT PLANT
The wastewater treatment plant is a secondary treatment
plant, using trickling filters and ponds for biological treatment.
Although a portion of the effluent is used for irrigation during the
summer, most of it is discharged to San Luis Obispo Creek, which has
very low natural flows during the dry season. It is also an
important creek for steelhead spawning , and the discharge
requirements set by the Regional Board specify a stringent
ammonia-nitrogen limit to avoid toxicity effects on steelhead .
The treatment plant has also been unable to consistently
meet discharge requirements for 5-day biochemical oxygen demand
( BODS ) , and it has periodically exceeded limits for other
constituents such as suspended solids, oil and grease,. and coliform
organisms. In addition, the treatment plant has several hydraulic
limitations. The design average dry-weather flow is approximately
Exhibit A
February 8 , 1988
Page I of 4
C-1��7
5 mgd . The wet-weather flow capacity of several process -- including
the influent pumping station, grit removal facility, primary
clarifiers, and effluent pipeline -- is about 10 mgd . A flow
equalization basin was constructed recently to help accommodate the
large I/I flows that occur during storms .
Several areas of treatment plant improvements have been
identified in Chapters 7 and 8 of the Wastewater Management Plan.
These improvements are briefly described here.
Elimination of Raw Wastewater Storage . Existing storage
tank and primary clarifiers will be retained . The
wastewater flow will be equalized after primary
clarification. The influent pumping station ' s capacity will
be expanded to accommodate the peak wet-weather flow of
22 mgd . New screening and preaeration/grit removal
facilities will be constructed ahead of influent pumping
station.
Eliminating Trickling Filter Flow from Primary Clarifiers.
Trickling filter effluent will be directed to the existing
secondary clarifier. Trickling filter effluent flow to the
primary clarifiers will be discontinued . Existing trickling
filters will be retained and will be operated in parallel .
Effluent Pipeline. The existing 24-inch diameter effluent
pipeline will be abandoned . New 36-inch pipeline will - be
designed to convey treated wastewater to the chlorine
contact tank by-passing effluent ponds.
Potable Water Line to Chlorination Facility. The existing
2-1/2-inch PVC potable water line will be replaced with a
new higher-strength pipe.
Digester Spill Containment. A low berm around the digesters
will be constructed to contain any spillage from the
anaerobic digesters.
Electrical System Improvements. New electrical service and
power distribution system will be added to accommodate the
load increases associated with plant improvements . Existing
MCC A and B will be replaced . All field wiring and devices
installed prior to the 1962 plant expansion will be
replaced . An analysis will be performed to identify the
emergency power needs in case of a power outage . A new
Exhibit A
February 8 , 1988
Page 2 of 4
�-I-Ig
electrical building will be constructed to house new
electrical equipment.
Sulfur Dioxide Evaporator. A sulfur dioxide evaporator will
be added to increase dechlorination capacity and to ensure
chlorine free water entering the receiving water.
Submerged Creek Discharge Structure . In order to minimize
foaming , the stream discharge structure will be modified so
that the effluent enters the stream below the water
surface . Relocation of the discharge to below the
confluence of San Luis and Froom Creeks will evaluated .
Facultative Sludge Lagoon. A facultative sludge lagoon will
be constructed to receive decantate from the digested sludge
drying beds. A small brush aerator will be installed in the
lagoon to ensure that the lagoon surface area remains
aerobic. The decantate will be discharged evenly back to
the treatment facilities to prevent fluctuations in the
ammonia loading.
Advanced Wastewater Treatment Facilities. To meet the
stringent ammonia-nitrogen limits for stream discharge,
activated sludge .process will be used . Existing primary
clarifiers, trickling filters (operating in parallel ) and
Clarifier No. 3 will continue to be used as a secondary
treatment facility. Flows from the existing secondary
Clarifier No. 3 will flow through a two-pass aeration tank
and then to two flocculator-clarifiers. Advanced treatment
facilities will be sized to handle a peak flow of 15 mgd .
Piping will be designed to divert higher flows either to the
equalization pond or to by-pass the activated sludge process
for blending with final clarifier effluent.
3 . BENEFICIAL USE OPTIONS
Four beneficial use options for the City' s treated effluent
will be evaluated during predesign phase of facilities design with
the goal of developing a beneficial use program for the City. The
four options include:
A. Stream enhancement -- Reestablishment and perhaps
irrigation of a strip of riparian vegetation along San
Luis Obispo Creek, to provide improved fish and
wildlife habitat, plus other stream enhancement
Exhibit A
February 8 , 19$8
Page 3 of 4
Cad __
measures as determined to be appropriate and
beneficial.
B. Agricultural irrigation -- The use of effluent to
irrigate agricultural crops.
C. Landscape irrigation -- The use of effluent to
irrigate landscaped areas such as golf courses, parks,
and industrial parks.
D. Laguna Lake indirect discharge -- Transport effluent
to retention basins above Laguna Lake and allow it to
percolate through and engineered sand and gravel
backfill to the lake.
A final report detailing the analysis and including a
recommended beneficial use program will be submitted to the City for
review and approval.

2 .4 Prepare site survey report. Determine the surveying
required to support the design of the project. Develop
topographic maps covering the area where new facilities
would be constructed .
2.5 Evaluate implementation of a stream enhancement program.
Identify agencies and organizations that might participate
in and provide funds for stream enhancement projects .
Also identify agencies (such as those with flood control
reponsibilities) that might have a nonparticipating
interest. Determine their specific interests and/or
concerns. Work with these agencies to evaluate and
implement projects.
Work with the Regional Board to determine how the intent
of the water quality objectives identified in the Basin
Plan and in the City's discharge requirements could be met
through implementation of a stream enhancement program.
Identify specific stream enhancement projects that could
be implemented . These may include ( 1) reestablishment of
riparian vegetation; ( 2) irrigation of riparian
vegetation; ( 3) development of riparian parks; ( 4 )
limiting cattle access to the stream; and ( 5) construction
of instream habitat improvement structures to enhance
steelhead spawning and rearing . Specific locations should
be identified , and the cooperation of riparian landowners ,
where necessary, should be sought.

C - I-23
Develop conceptual designs for the specific projects and
evaluate them on the basis of cost, overall benefits to
the community, and compatibility with Regional Board and,
Basin Plan requirements.. Prepare a letter report
summarizing the results of Task 2.5.
2.6 Evaluate use of reclaimed water for agriculture irrigation
and landscape irrigation. Identify areas that are likely
candidates for irrigation. Review available soils data
and take soil samples from representative areas. Analyze
soils for chemical constituents plus such characteristics
as cation exchange capacity and sodium adsorption ratio.
Determine the chemical characteristics of the San Luis
Obispo wastewater treatment plant effluent. Evaluate the
compatibility of the effluent with the area soils.
Determine whether there is likely to be a market. for
reclaimed water. For agricultural irrigation, this will
involve discussions with local ranchers and farmers and
others who may have insight into local agriculture, such
as the county agricultural extension agent. For landscape
irrigation, facilities such as parks, golf courses, school
yards , cemeteries, industrial parks, and landscaped
highway medians are the most likely reuse sites.
Based on the above work, identify existing and potential
landscape vegetation and potential crops for the area.
Determine the compatibility of the effluent chemical
characteristics with the vegetation and crops, and prepare
preliminary conceptual designs for irrigation projects.
The main purpose of this step is to identify probable
costs. Determine whether the irrigators will be able to
afford the price of reclaimed water and , if not, determine
the degree to which the City would be willing to subsidize
the sale of reclaime-4 water. It must be remembered that
the agricultural irrigator will , in addition to having to
pay for delivery of reclaimed water to his property line,
also incur costs for irrigation equipment, pumping , and
operation of the irrigation system. Landscape irrigators
may need water delivered at a suitably high pressure.
Some uses, particularly for landscape irrigation, may also
Exhibit B
February 8 , 1988
Page 4 of 13
require higher treatment levels . Prepare a letter report
summarizing the results of Task 2.6 , including costs .
2.7 Evaluate indirect (subsurface) discharge of effluent to
Laguna Lake. Identify potential Laguna Lake discharge
projects.
Through discussions with the Regional Board and the
California Department of Health Services, document the
discharge requirements and treatment level needed for
specific discharge methods. Specific constituents for
which requirements must be determined include 5-day
biochemical oxygen demand ( BOD5 ) , ammonia-nitrogen, and
nutrients (nitrogen and phosphorus) . In addition , because
Laguna Lake is currently used as a body-contact
recreational impoundment, Title 22 requirements for those
types of water reclamation projects may apply. Prepare a
letter report summarizing findings.
Prepare a final report on beneficial use options . The
report will summarize the development and analysis of all
options developed and will recommend a beneficial use
program.
2.8 Review existing source detection data. Collect and review
existing smoke testing data . Collect and review existing
TV inspection data.
2 .9 Initial field work. Perform initial source detection work
in Basins B, D, E, and H. Before any sewer rehabilitation
or extensive source detection work is performed in these
basins a cost-effectiveness evaluation is needed to
determine the optimum combination of sewer rehabilitation ,
relief sewer construction, treatment plant modifications,
and flow equalization. Intensive flow monitoring will be
performed in these basins and existing smoke testing and
television inspection data will be reviewed . A
cost-effective evaluation will be conducted based upon the
above data to determine if any portions of the four basins
are cost-effective to rehabilitate . If rehabilitation is
cost-effective, additional source detection may be
necessary to determine the appropriate rehabilitation
methods for each sewer reach. Following subtasks will be
Exhibit B

FROM: William T. Hetland, Utilities Manager W(
SUBJECT: Regional Water Quality Control Board Meeting for
March 11, 1988
This is an update on discussions with the Regional Board staff on
the Board's March 11, 1988 meeting in Solvang.
I have tentatively scheduled a meeting for us with the Executive
Officer Bill Leonard and Board Chairman Manny DeMaria for March 10,
1988 at 3 : 00 PM at Alisal Ranch, just south of Solvang. Other
Board members may also be present. This will give us an
opportunity to review the City concerns on an informal basis prior
to the Board meeting on March 11, 1988.
Based on discussions with Bill Leonard, I think there are a couple
of important points that must be made with the Regional Board. The
first is that the City is progressing in a positive manner in
implementing our Wastewater Management Plan. It is important that
we demonstrate the work we have done to date and present a viable
schedule, highlighting the future work we plan to undertake. It is
also important that the Board understand the dilemma the City
faces. We are concerned about proceeding with a very expensive
project realizing that the project will not meet all the City's
discharge requirements. The City is looking for a commitment from
the Board that our approach is appropriate and that the waste
discharge requirements will be modified.
City staff and Brown and Caldwell is drafting a report for the
Regional Board outlining the work we have done to date, the dilemma
the City faces and how we propose to over come the dilemma. The key
items we will be requesting for the Regional Board to consider on
the March 11, 1988 meeting are:
a. Amend the City's Cease and Desist Order by approving a
revised time schedule for implementation of the City's
Wastewater Management Plan.
b. Acknowledge that the Regional Board is dependent on the
Environmental Protection Agency, giving them authority to
interpret the Basin Plan provisions.
c. Request Regional Board staff to asist the City in
implementation of the Wastewater Management Plan particularly
relating to beneficial use options.
d. Review and comment on the City's approach to resolving its
wastewater problems and express a willingness to work with the
City in meeting our common goal of an efficient and effective
Wastewater Management Program.
Mr. Leonard has indicated his staff could recommend these requests
and that the Board would be receptive to them.
I would suggest that the format we follow at the March 11, 1988
meeting involve you first giving an introduction of City people
present (ie. Mayor, City Council, Staff and Brown and Caldwell) . I
could then give a brief background on the City efforts and what
actions we would like to see the Board take. I think you could
then explain the City's concerns and then we could follow up with
comments by the Mayor and Council members.
Eventhough City staff and Council has experienced a lot of
frustration in dealing with the Regional Board, I think it is
important to maintain a positive attitude and to emphasize a spirit
of cooperation with the Board. Our staff report will try to accent
the positive direction the City is taking. The City needs the
Board to buy into our program and to also instill a confidence in
the Board that the City will follow through and solve this problem.
Let me know if you have any other suggestions. I will forward you
a copy of the City letter to the Board when it is finalized.
