TITLE: Approve Agreement for Grease Control Inspection Device Program
with Jon Kinley DBA Environmental Compliance Inspection
Services
ABSTRACT:
The City requires monitoring of grease control devices located in Food Service
Establishments ( "FSE ") to minimize the chance of sanitary sewer overflows throughout
the City.
RECOMMENDATION:
Approve the agreement with Environmental Compliance Inspection Service for grease
control inspection device program for a five year term, and authorize the Mayor and City
Clerk to execute the agreement.
FUNDING REQUIREMENTS:
The current adopted budget includes sufficient funding for this agreement. It will be
expensed to the Waste Water account in the Municipal Operations Department, 5600-
8159.
DISCUSSION:
The City monitors FSE to control and evaluate grease collection devices in order to
minimize the chance of Sanitary Sewer Overflows ( "SSOs "). The current contractor,
Environmental Compliance Inspection Service, visits specific FSE in the City that
require quarterly grease interceptor inspections. These inspections assist the City in
meeting the State of California requirements and the California Water Resource Board's
desire to eliminate SSOs.

On December 12, the Municipal Operations Department issued a Request for Proposals
(RFP) for grease control device inspection program. The inspection service will be for
five years with a total not to exceed amount of $195,000. Proposals were due on
January 2, 2014. The City only received one bid, from Environmental Compliance
Inspection Services. The City has worked with ECIS for over ten years and has a
positive working relationship. ECIS brings experience from other municipalities and
sewer agencies that make the company's insight and expertise in the area valuable.
Taking into account previous experience with the City and completeness of the bid, the
Municipal Operations Department recommends approval of the Agreement with
Environmental Compliance Inspection Service for these services.
ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW:
Staff recommends the City Council find this action is not subject to the California
Environmental Quality Act ( "CEQA ") pursuant to Sections 15060(c)(2) (the activity will
not result in a direct or reasonably foreseeable indirect physical change in the
environment) and 15060(c)(3) (the activity is not a project as defined in Section 15378)
of the CEQA Guidelines, California Code of Regulations, Title 14, Chapter 3, because it
has no potential for resulting in physical change to the environment, directly or
indirectly.
NOTICING:
The agenda item has been noticed according to the Brown Act (72 hours in advance of
the meeting at which the City Council considers the item).
