CITY COUNCIL STAFF REPORT

SUBJECT: Professional Services Agreement with Environmental Compliance
Inspection Services (ECIS) for Grease Interceptor Inspections and
Grease BMP Inspections
ISSUE:
In conjunction with the continued effort to reduce or eliminate sewage spills caused by
grease from commercial entities, should the City hire a private- sector firm
(Environmental Compliance Inspection Services) up to a 3 -year term to conduct
specialized 'best management practice" (BMP) training /inspections for food service
establishments (FSEs) and inspect existing grease control devices?
RECOMMENDATION:
Approve Professional Services Agreement with ECIS for the contract price of $39,000,
up to a 3 -year term, to perform grease control device and BMP inspections and
authorize the Mayor and the City Clerk to execute the agreement.
DISCUSSION:
Background:
The California Regional Water Quality Control Board, Santa Ana Region (RWQCB)
adopted an order to eliminate Sanitary Sewer Overflows (SSOs) and as part of the
order directed each City to come up with approved BMPs to prevent all SSOs. In
addition, the County has developed BMPs for reducing discharges to the State water
bodies. Based on these two requirements the City has worked with ECIS for the past
18- months to provide basic restaurant and food service establishment - related BMP

training and annual inspections at all FSEs. These inspections will assist the City in
meeting the RWQCB's desire to eliminate all SSOs.
The Utilities Department retained ECIS in early 2002 to do an assessment and
inventory of the City's 320 or so FSEs, to develop a database and determine what level
of grease devices each FSE had. This information was utilized to develop a program
that meets the requirements of the RWQCB's order. In 2004 ECIS inspected 199 FSE's
(three times each) to monitor maintenance of the grease control devices. These
services need to be provided each year for the City to comply with the RWQCB's Order.
Professional services to inspect the 356 FSE's in Newport Beach will include the
following items:
199 FSE's will receive 3 annual inspections of grease interceptor or grease trap
maintenance;
• 356 FSE's will receive 2 annual education, training and inspection visits relating
to grease control BMPs, including written notification when an FSE is in non-
compliance with City ordinances.
ECIS is a Rancho Santa Margarita -based company that specializes in this unusual
service. Staff has been very satisfied with the firm's work during 2002 -2004 and ECIS is
very familiar with our FSEs, therefore we recommend continuing utilizing this firm for
this program.
During November of 2004, we met with the Newport Beach Restaurant Association
members at a public meeting to discuss the new ordinance and the role of ECIS and
their inspections for the City. Mr. Jon Kinley, the principal with ECIS, joined us at the
meeting. Subsequent to the meeting, we worked with the restaurateurs to develop
revisions to the City's grease control ordinance. The City Council adopted the new FSE
FOG Ordinance 12114104 and it became effective 1114105.
Environmental Review:
No environmental review is required for the professional services associated with this
report.
Funding Availability:
Funding is available in account number 7533- C5600691 (Sewer Enterprise Fund) for
the Grease Interceptor Inspections and Grease BMP Inspections and Training in the
amount of $39,000 (inspections are based on $17 per BMP inspection twice a year and
three annual FSE site inspections at $17 per inspection point, based on the changing
number of FSE — currently at 356 but expected to increase to 360). This amount is

Page 3
based on one year of service but includes a provision to extend the contract for two
years on a year by year basis.
It is anticipated that the Utilities Department will recoup a majority of the fees associated
with this agreement from the FSE's, specifically, the Grease Control Device inspection
fees and a portion of the BMP inspection fees. These items will come before the Council
as part of the Master Fee Resolution later in this fiscal year to collect fees in the new
fiscal year 2005 -06.

PROGRAM COST ESTIMATION. Using the current number of 356 FSE's and 389 Inspection Points (figures
from May 2004 database), ECIS estimates the total cost for a term of 2 years, will be approx. $ 39,678.
389 lids X $17 = $ 6,613.
Inspecting every 4 months = 6 inspection runs in 2 years. 6 X $ 6,613 = $ 39,678.
Naturally, this amount may increase /decrease as new FSE's are added or subtracted.
INSPECTION FREQUENCY. • ECIS proposes to inspect all FSE's twice annually, every 6 months.
INSPECTIONS. O.P.: ECIS proposes to perform the following minimum at all inspections:
ECIS proposes to inspect all Food Service Establishments (FSE's), within CNB sewer service area to monitor
compliance or non - compliance with the Cities Grease BMP Inspection Program.
ECIS proposes to inspect all FSE's designated as grease producing at a rate of seventeen (17) dollars per. There are
approximately 65 FSE's that will not be subject to the GBMP Inspection Program. On the database, there are 74
FSE's in the red column -these are classified as FSE's that have negligible to zero grease output during normal
business procedures,( ie, Coffee Shops -small bakerys- Sandwich shops/Delis). Of the 74, the 9 identified as subject to
the GBMP Program consist of Pizza shops and Donut shops, therefore in the opinion of ECIS, they should be subject
to the program due to there being some grease output from normal business operations.
ECIS proposes to inspect for the following at these inspections: (1) Removal of Garbage Grinder (2) Inspect Grease
Collection Maintenance logs, Exhaust Hood Maintenance logs and Employee Training logs (3) Inspect for installation
and maintenance of all Drain Screens (4) Inspect to ensure Food Waste BMP's are followed (5) Inspect to ensure Dry
Wiping BMP is followed (6) Inspect for Emergency Spill Materials or Spill Response Kit (7) Inspect to ensure Grease
BMP poster(s) are located in approved areas.
ECIS proposes to inform and give written notification of all instances of Non - Compliance to all affected FSE's, as
well as how to obtain compliance, as described in the Grease Control Best Management Practices Inspection Report.
ECIS proposes to distribute all materials pertaining to the Grease BMP Program to all affected FSE's.
ECIS proposes to charge CNB a fee of seventeen (17) dollars for all return inspections due to non - compliance
ECIS proposes to notify CNB of all FSE's in non - compliance with the Grease BMP Inspection Program.

There are as of January 2005, 300 establishments that would be subject to the GBMP Program Inspections. Estimated
yearly cost of GBMP Program Inspections is $ 14,450.
(300 X $17, X 2 + 250 rechecks @ $17 per- or $10,200 + $ 4,250)
➢ TOTAL ESTIMATED COST FOR BOTH INSPECTION PROGRAMS:
ECIS estimates the total cost to implement the Grease Control Device Inspections Program (GCDI's) and the Grease
Best Management Practices Inspection Program (GBMP's) to be $ 54,128. This price reflects running the GCDI's for
2 years as mentioned above in the proposal. 2 years of GCDI's ($39,678) + 1 year of bi- annual GBMP's ($14,450)
