Subject: EXTENSION OF EMERGENCY DECLARATION AND AUTHORIZATION OF THE COUNTY
HEALTH DEPARTMENT IN SUPPORT FOR NEEDLE EXCHANGE PROGRAMS
SPECIFIC REQUEST(S)OR RECO-MMENDATION(S)&BACKGROUND AND JUSTIFICATION
Recommendation:
DETERMINE that there is a need to continue with the emergency action originally taken by the Board
or, December 14, 1999 based on the increasing/epidemic number of AIDS/HIV and Hepatitis C cases
among injection drug users in Contra Costa County.
Background;
Continued iYeedfor Emergency
The spread of disease, particularly HIV and Hepatitis C, through the sharing of needles continues to be
a grave concern in Contra Costa County. 30% of all people living with AIDS in Contra Costa were
infected by injection drug use with the highest number of AIDS cases in West County. As of Dcce m.ber
1997, Richmond had the highest cumulative incidence of AIDS (4.8 per 100(1 population) arnong
Contra Costa cities, with at least 50 cases. Injection drug use was the estimated mode of infection
among 40% of all individuals diagnosed with AIDS in Richmond. Among African Americans
diagnosed with AIDS in Richmond 1982-1998 53% were most likely infected through injection drag
use.
Contra Costa Health Services does not currently provide needle exchange services (it is prohibited
from doing so absent a declared public health emergency). CCHS does provide services focused on
injection drug users including: 1-HIV/AIDS Outreach and Education, 2-HIV antibody testing,
3-Substance Abuse Treatment, 4-Heafth on Wheels Van, and 5-Substance Abuse Counseling and
Treatment for HIV-infected clients.

RECQ'O T A-IMN
DETERMINE that there is a reed to continue the Board action taken by the Board on October 3, 2000
pursuant to Public Contract Code Sections 20134 and.22050 to replace the HVAC system at the
Richmond Health Center, 100 _ 38th Street,Richmond for Health Services.
FINN_ CI _L I T
Funding will be identified once the scope of work is determined.
111. BA K.QRQUN',D
A. On Tuesday, September 19, 2000 the Kathabar dehumidification system at the Richmond Health
Center ailed, causing Kathene solution and condensation to drip from the ceilings and the
MVAC system to be shut down. This resulted in the facility having to close until teniporary
repairs could be made.
B. The existing, system was originally installed in 1966 and is an unconventional system which is
difficult to maintain and repair, and does not provide adequate ventilation in a significant portion
of the building. A complete new modern energy efficient HVAC system needs to be installed
since the system can now only operate at 50% capacity and may fail again,
C. It will be necessary to relocate all, or at least a portion of, the operations of the facility to
temporary space in order to accomplish the work in an efficient manner and to avoid disruption
during constriction.

REM>:ACEMENT OF HVAC SYSTEM AT RICHMOND HEALTH A/D File No..135-0104/B.4.1
CENTER, 100-38TH STREET,RICHMOND (WW0087) December 19, 2000
L The replacement of the HVAC system is vital to Health Services' ability to deliver health care
and treatment services to their patients, and is therefore necessary for the life, health, welfare,
and safety of the citizens who rely on health Services for critical health care services and
medical treatment.
E. To reduce the remodeling construction schedule so that the work can be completed before spring,
the County Administrator and Health Services recommend a Ending that an emergency exists
that will not permit the delay resulting from a competitive solicitation for bids, and that Beard
action is necessary to respond to the emergency.
F. Consequently, on October 3, 2000 (Agenda. Item D.3), the Board 1) found that an emergency
exists, 2) delegated authority to the General Services Director to proceed in the most expeditious
manner with the replacement of the defective HVAC system at the Richmond Health Center, 100
-- 38t" St., Richmond for Health Services, 3) directed the General Services Director to make
reports to enable the Board to review the emergency actions and to determine that there is a need
to continue the action., and 4) declared that the project, as an emergency, is exempt from the
provisions of the California Environmental Quality Act.
G. The condition that the Board found to be an emergency on October 3, 2000 continues to exist.
Therefore, it is necessary to continue the emergency action previously taken by the Board so that
the work can be completed in the shortest time possible.
H. Contracts for the emergency work are being negotiated and will be reported to the :Board after
the scope of work and schedules have been confirmed.
I. Work is continuing on engineering,procurement and schedule coordination.
