CITY COUNCIL STAFF REPORT
Agenda Item No. s
September 23, 2003
TO: HONORABLE MAYOR AND MEMBERS OF THE CITY COUNCIL
FROM: Utilities Department
Terresa Moritz, Management Assistant, 949 - 644 -3013

SUBJECT: Professional Services Agreement with Environmental Compliance
Inspection Services (ECIS) for Grease Interceptor Inspections,
Grease BMP Inspections and Storm -water BMP Inspections
ISSUE:
In an 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) to conduct specialized "best management practice" (BMP) training for
restaurants and other food service establishments (FSEs) and to inspect existing
grease control devices?
RECOMMENDATION:
Approve Professional Services Agreement with ECIS for the contract price of $46,000,
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 curbing "urban run -off' and reducing
discharges to the State water bodies. Based on these two requirements the City has
worked with ECIS (who currently contracts with Laguna Beach and Oceanside) to
provide basic restaurant and food service establishment - related BMP training and
annual inspections at all FSEs to do a thorough Grease and Storm -water inspection.
PSA for Grease /Storm -water BMP Inspections

These inspections will assist the City in meeting the County's requirements and the
RWQCB's desire to eliminate all SSOs.
Utilities staff has worked with Dave Kiff on the Stormwater portion of this PSA and he
concurs with our recommendation. 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 will be
utilized to develop a program that meets the requirements of the RWQCB's order.
Professional services to the roughly 320 food service establishments in Newport Beach
will include the following items:
3x annual inspections of grease interceptor or grease trap maintenance;
2x annual education, training and inspection relating to grease control BMPs,
including written notification when an FSE is in non - compliance with City
ordinances; and
1x annual education, training and inspection relating to stormwater /urban runoff
BMPs, including written notification when an FSE is in non - compliance with City
ordinances and including delivery of relevant City materials related to the
stormwater program.
ECIS is a Rancho Santa Margarita -based company that specializes in this unusual
service. Because we have been satisfied with the firm's work in 2002 and because we
are unaware of other firms that provide this service, we are comfortable in requesting a
sole- source contract.
Earlier in 2003, we met with the Newport Beach Restaurant Association's board of
directors to talk about this inspection effort. 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. These revisions have not
yet come before the City Council for adoption.
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 $27,519 and funding is available in account number 7503- C5500787 (Water
Enterprise Fund) for the Storm -water BMP Inspections and Training in the amount of
$18,481.

To: Mr. Dave Kiff / Asst. City Manager / City of Newport Beach
Re: Proposal for cost of Source Control Program
Dear Mr. Kiff,
Per our recent discussion, below is the proposal for ECIS to implement a Source Control Program for the City of Newport Beach
This program will consist of three components, Quarterly Grease Interceptor /Grease Trap inspections, bi- annual Grease BMP
Inspections and annual Storm -water BMP Inspections.
GREASE INTERCEPTORITRAP INSPECTIONS:
ECIS proposes to inspect all Grease Interceptors and Grease Traps within City of Newport Beach sewer service area every 4 months.
These inspections will be carried out in the same manner, as they were within CNB from November 3001- February 2003. Based on a
lid count of 319 from February 2002, the estimated yearly cost of these inspections is $ 16,369 (J 19 x $17 x 3).
GREASE BEST MANAGEMENT PRACTICES 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 fifteen (15) dollars per., on a bi- annual basis
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 fifteen (15) 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 were as of Feb 2002, 289 establishments that would be subject to the BMP Program Inspections. Because it has been over I
year since the last inspections- ECIS estimates that the actual number of FSE's has risen to 300. Estimated yearly cost of BMP
Program Inspections is $ 11,250. (300 X $15, X 2 + 150 rechecks @ $15 per- or $9,000 + $ 2,250)
August 15, 2003
Page 2
STORM -WATER B.M.P. INSPECTIONS:
ECIS proposes to perform on -site, Storm -water Best Management Practices inspections at all FSE's listed currently, or in the future,
within the Source Control Program database, in accordance with all measures as detailed within the proposed URBAN RUNOFF
RESTAURANT INSPECTION FORM.
ECIS proposes to perform these inspections on an annual basis.
ECIS proposes to inform and give written notification of all instances of Non - Compliance to the affected FSE , and how to obtain
compliance, as described within the URBAN RUNOFF RESTAURANT INSPECTION FORM.
ECIS proposes to inform CNB of all FSE's found to be in Non - Compliance, with all enforcement procedures beyond the established
notification of non- compliance procedure(s) by ECIS, to be CNB responsibility.
ECIS proposes to distribute all applicable and relevant material related to the program to all known and /or affected FSE's.
ECIS proposes to charge CNB a fee of $ 30.00 per FSE inspected.
ECIS proposes to perform these inspections beginning in ?, 2003. All return inspections due to non - compliance will carry a fee of
$30.00 per FSE, per visit.
There were as of February 2002, approximately 300 establishments subject to inspection. Because it has been over I year since the last
inspections, ECIS estimates the total number of FSE's subject to inspection to be approximately 320. Annual cost of inspections,
without return inspections = $ 9.600. (320 x 30 ). The number of FSE's in non - compliance is difficult to estimate, however ECIS
estimates that out of 330 FSE's, roughly half will have some level of non- compliance and thus subject to return inspection. These 150
return inspections add an additional $ 4,500 to the annual price. ECIS estimates the number of FSE's in non - compliance during the
second round of inspections will be much less, again it is difficult to estimate, however ECIS estimates the number of FSE's in non-
compliance after the second round of inspections will be 75. These 75, second round return inspections add an additional $2,250 to
the annual price. Therefore the estimated annual price to carry out annual inspections, along with the estimated number of return
inspections is S 16,350. ($9,600 + $4,500 (first run rechecks) + $ 2,250 (second run rechecks). An added amount of S2,131 has also
been added to account for an anticipated high degree of non - compliance. This figure was added to bring the cost of the entire program
to an even number and is based on past experience.
ECIS estimates that the total annual cost to perform all three inspections, Grease- trap /Grease Interceptor, Grease BMP's and Storer
water BMP's, will be $ 46,000. ECIS has estimated this cost at a moderate to high degree of instances of non - compliance, therefore
the actual cost may be less.
