DATE: JANUARY 26, 2004
SUBJECT: AMEND BLANKET PURCHASE ORDER TO WEST COAST ARBORIST FOR
ELECTRIC LINE CLEARANCE
RECOMMENDATION
It is recommended that the Utility Board/City Council authorize staff to amend the blanket
purchase order to West Coast Arborist for electric line clearance from $100,000 to $124,000,
a net increase of $24,000.
BACKGROUND
Azusa Light & Water conducts annual electric line clearance to provide our customers,
employees, and the general public with a safer and more reliable electric system. West Coast
Arborist has provided our line clearance (tree trimming) in the last four fiscal years. Before
2003, we have averaged between 1,650 to just over 2,000 per year. This year, the number of
trees trimmed totaled 2,523 due to more proactive steps taken by the division to eliminate
tree -related power outages. Tree removals under power lines have also increased from 33
last year to 90 this year. The majority of the removals were palm trees growing under the
power lines. Our current overhead line maintenance budget is $250,000 and year to date,
$96,259 has been paid to West Coast Arborist. The request for a net increase of $24,000 to
the blanket purchase order will allow for additional trimming or removal between now and the
end of the fiscal year.
FISCAL IMPACT
Budgeted funds are available in electrical operating account 33-40-735-930-6493.

INFORMATIONAL ITEM
TO: HONORABLE CHAIRPERSON AND MEMBERS OF THE AZUSA UTILITY BOARD
AND AZUSA CITY COUNCIL
FROM: JOSEPH F. HSU, DIRECTOR OF UTILITI`'
DATE: JANUARY 26, 2004
SUBJECT: ANNUAL REPORT TO STATE ON AB 939 COMPLIANCE FOR 2002
RECOMMENDATION
This is an information only report; no action is required.
BACKGROUND
Each year the City must prepare an annual report demonstrating compliance with AB 939, the
State's recycling mandate approved in 1989, which requires cities and counties in California
to divert 50% of their solid waste from landfills. The annual report for calendar year 2002 is
due to the State by January 31, 2004.
City staff are please to report that for calendar year 2002, the City of Azusa achieved a
division rate of 55%. This rate is fairly consistent with the diversion rate for 2001, which was
57%. In preparing its report to the State, staff reviewed disposal reports generated from the
Los Angeles County Sanitation Districts, mainly focused on use of the Puente Hills landfill.
In reviewing Sanitation Districts' information, City staff reconciled disposal reports submitted
by Athens Services to the City, with reports Athens submitted to the Sanitation Districts.
Staff generally found that the tonnage Athens delivered to Sanitation Districts facilities from
Athens' material recovery facility matched the tonnage Athens reported to the City.
However, some of Athens' drivers of trucks collecting trash in county unincorporated areas
misreported to the Puente Hills landfill that 632.86 tons originated from Azusa. Athens has
issued to us a correction letter, which the City will submit to the State as part of its annual
report.
Athens is not alone in having drivers that misreported the origin of waste. Waste
Management, another company which services county unincorporated areas, incorrectly
named Azusa as the City of origin of 413.72 tons collected in county areas. In total, Azusa is
seeking a correction for 1,636.37 tons of misreported waste.
The diversion rate accomplished during 2002 is a good sign that the City Council approved
MRF program in October 2000 is working as expected and diverting the necessary tonnage
keep the City in compliance with AB 939.
FISCAL IMPACT
Since the City has achieved the necessary waste diversion requirement, no additional waste
diversion programs or the cost thereof are required.
