HomeMy WebLinkAbout12 - Clean Beaches Initiative Contract with the State Water Resources Control BoardITEM 12
TO: Members of the Newport Beach City Council
FROM: Dave Kiff, Assistant City Manager
SUBJECT: Clean Beaches Initiative Contract with the State Water Resources
Control Board
RECOMMENDED Authorize the Mayor to execute the attached contract with the State
ACTION: Water Resources Control Board in the amount of $200,000 for projects
under the Clean Beaches Initiative.
BACKGROUND: When the voters of the State of California approved Propositions 12 (the
Parks Bond) and Proposition 13 (the Water Bond) in March 2000, the City
was able to apply for and receive competitive grants for specific projects
in and around Newport Beach. The City accepted these grants in October
2001. One of these grants — $500,000 worth — came from Governor Davis'
Clean Beaches Initiative (CBI).
CBI projects must follow these guidelines:
• Projects, not Studies. Funds must be spent on specific projects and
structures, not studies of existing problems.
• Reduce Closures and Postings. Dollars spent must result in
reductions of postings and closures of beaches. Health officials keep
this data by beach mile day - a beach mile day refers to a single
closure or posting, its linear distance along the beach, and the day or
days in which the closure or posting endures. Thus, structural
improvements in areas without beaches are generally ineligible.
• Complete Projects ASAP. The State Water Resources Control Board
staff has been persistent in encouraging recipients of the Clean
Beaches Initiative dollars to complete all projects by Summer 2002.
We have proposed using the $200,000 of the $500,000 for the following
projects:
Page 2
• Circulation Improvements at Newport Dunes and Newport Island.
We did a pilot test of a circulation device at the Dunes in February
and are interested in doing another test around Newport Island; and
Storm Drain to Sewer Diversions at Newport Dunes, including
diverting the remaining two storm drains that enter the Newport
Dunes swimming lagoon; and
• Storm Drain Filters and Screens (with possibly sump pumps) in West
Newport at watersheds draining into Newport Island channels. We
expect General Services Department staff to install these screens (with
Ab Tec brand filters) within 45 days.
As noted, the City Council accepted $500,000 from the State for projects
under this contract. Funding is included in the FY 2001 -02 Capital
Improvement Program (CIP Item 7251- C510096).

EXHIBIT A -1 — WORK TO BE PERFORMED
A. BACKGROUND AND GOALS
Newport Bay is an impaired water body listed on the Section 303(d) List for sediment, nutrients, fecal
coliform, and toxics. As a result of weekly testing AS 411 done by the Orange County Health Care
Agency at 35 different sites in Newport Bay and at twelve ocean sites (testing done by the Orange
County Sanitation Agency), Newport Beach and Newport Bay had beach postings covering more
than 550 Beach Mile Days in 2001. Two swimming areas in the Bay accounted for more than 80% of
the postings, meaning that high bacteria levels in the waters impaired the public's ability to swim in
and enjoy these areas.
The intent of this project is to reduce bacteria inputs from onshore sources and to increase die -off
rates of on -water sources of bacteria so as to meet REC -1 standards in the Bay and along the
shoreline. At the completion of this Project, the City expects at least a 50% reduction in beach mile
day postings in 2002. It does so by:
Part 1. Installing inlet guards (eg National Inlet Protection) and runoff - retaining valves (eg
TideFlex) in the storm drain network draining into Newport Island's channels along with
increasing maintenance activities at the valves to remove fresh -water runoff before it
enters Newport Bay;
Part 2. Plugging the remaining storm drains at Newport Dunes and automatically pumping flows
from the drains into the sanitary sewer ( "Dunes Diversions ");
Part 3. Pilot testing devices (eg InStreem) that increase circulation and aeration in Newport
Dunes and Newport Island, with the potential of permanently installing these devices in a
later phase, if shown to be effective.
A later phase may include installing additional inlet guards and runoff- retaining valves in the storm
drain network draining into other critical parts of the Bay (Bayside Drive, Corona del Mar, the Balboa
Peninsula) should Part 1 of this Project be deemed effective. As noted, a later phase of the Project
could also include permanent installation of circulation /aeration devices (again depending upon the
success of the pilot test).
The Project will combine the resources of the Clean Beaches Initiative with the resources of the City
of Newport Beach (municipality with jurisdiction), the County of Orange's Health Care Agency (water
testing), and the County of Orange's Public Facilities and Resources Department (PFBRD), trustees
of the Newport Dunes tidelands.
B. WORK TO BE PERFORMED
The purpose of this Contract is to plan, design, and implement the Newport Beach CBI Bay/Beach
Improvement Project. The Project includes these major components:
Design, install and operate:
Dunes Diversions. Plugs in the two remaining major storm drains entering the Newport Dunes
Swimming Lagoon, after which flows retained in the system will be pumped via automatic sump
pumps into the sanitary sewer;
Runoff Controls near West Newport Channels. Includes installing up to 30 inlet guards and
three 1 -way "Tide -Flex" valves to keep fresh water runoff from mixing with tidal flows. Inlet
guards would keep debris out of storm drain network, 1 -way valve would catch and hold fresh
water until City vactor crews or a self- contained sump pump (pumping to a sewer line) can
remove it; and
Circulation Pilot Test. Analyze, via field testing and modeling (using the existing RMA model of
Newport Bay), the reduction in bacteria (if any) when devices that aerate and circulate bay water
are installed in Newport Dunes Swimming Lagoon.

EXHIBIT B — BUDGET DETAIL AND PAYMENT PROVISIONS
C. Computing the Amount Due
Payment will be made upon submittal of an invoice which details the percentage of each
task completed based on work not dollars spent. Notwithstanding any other provision of
this contract, the Contractor agrees that the SWRCB may retain an amount equal to ten
percent of the grant amount specified in this contract until completion of the Project to the
satisfaction of the Division. Any retained amounts due to the Contractor will be promptly
disbursed to the Contractor, without interest, upon completion of the Project.
D. Matching Funds
If projects include capital costs, the project applicant shall identify those costs. The local
matching contribution required by subdivision (f) of Section 79148.8 of the Water Code
may be satisfied by in -kind match that meets all or a portion of local cost share required
by subdivision (f) of Section 79148.8 of the Water Code. For the purposes of determining
the capital cost of the Project, the in -kind match shall be included in the total project cost.
The "Contractor" shall provide a matching contribution for the portion of the project
consisting of capital expenditures for construction, according to the following formula:
Project Capital Cost = Capital Cost Match by Recipient
$1,000,000 to $5,000,000, inclusive = 20%
$125,000 to $999,999, inclusive = 15%
$1 to $124,999, inclusive= 10%

invoices for the purchase of equipment (items over $5000) as attachments to the
invoices. You must, however, keep copies of all vendor invoices, timesheets, and any
other documents related to the project for future audit purposes.
G. Payment of Project Costs
Contractor agrees that it shall provide for payment of its full share of the Project costs. All
costs and payments for the Project shall be paid by the Contractor promptly and in
