(Stormwater Utility Area 17 Funds) DATE: February 7, 2006 PAGE: 2 of 3 FISCAL IMPACT: No impact to the General Fund. The 2006-2007 rate per ERU is the same as that set for Fiscal Year 2005-2006. Therefore,there will be no change in rate for Unincorporated County property owners. The unincorporated area of Contra Costa County will produce approximately$2,700,000,which will be used to implement the Unincorporated County's Watershed Program. REASONS FOR RECOMMENDATIONS AND BACKGROUND: The Clean Water Program consists of the County, Contra Costa cities and the District working together to prevent, reduce or eliminate the discharge of pollutants into the storm drain system, including creeks and other natural waterways.The Clean Water Program was established in response to changes in the Federal Clean Water Act. The Program known at the federal level as the NPDES Program for Municipal Stormwater Owners is in its tenth year. In order to be in compliance with the current NPDES permit, Clean Water Program participants implement a Stormwater Management Plan stipulating a set of activities and a performance or service level. The Stormwater Management Plan is a major component of the Joint Municipal NPDES Stormwater Permit with the California Regional Water Quality Control Boards and is paid for with stormwater utility fee assessments. Adoption of the attached resolution will begin the annual process of assessment adoption. The Board of Supervisors is being asked to set a rate of$30 for one ERU in the Unincorporated County areas and to request that the District adopt the stormwater utility assessment. (The District is the only entity under state law with legal authority to assess this particular assessment.) The Public Works Department coordinates the County Watershed Program for the County. Examples of how the assessment is being spent in the current year include: General drainage maintenance to remove debris and sediment from County storm drain systems, flood control channels and creeks. Targeted street sweeping throughout the County. Work with County Building Inspection and Public Works inspectors and construction companies/contractors to reduce construction contaminants, such as paint, cement, oil/fuels and soil erosion from entering storm drains and creeks. Encourage Planners and the development community to use new designs that will reduce contaminated stormwater runoff. Educate the public on the benefits of reducing pesticides and other toxic household product use and their proper disposal. Educate County Engineers and Maintenance staff on flood control design, construction and maintenance practices that protect water quality and preserve natural watershed habitats. SUBJECT: Adopt Resolution Requesting.Flood Control District To Adopt Annual Parcel Assessment For The County's Watershed Program, Countywide. (Stormwater Utility Area 17 Funds) DATE: February 7, 2006 PAGE: 3 of 3 Inspection of industrial and commercial businesses for evidence that spill prevention, equipment maintenance and cleaning,waste handling and disposal, and other business practices are done in a manner which minimizes stormwater contamination. Educate marina operators and their marina users through a marina program. CONSEQUENCES OF NEGATIVE ACTION: If the rate per ERU is not set for the coming fiscal year, funds will not be available for the County's Watershed Program to comply with the Joint Municipal NPDES Stormwater Permit. The Regional Water Quality Control Boards have the authority to issue fines of up to $10,000 per day against those municipalities that do not comply with the Permit and fail to implement their Stormwater Management Plans.
