CONSENT CALENDAR
TO: HONORABLE CHAIRPERSON AND MEMBERS OF THE AZUSA UTILITY BOARD
AND AZUSA CITY COUNCIL
FROM: JOSEPH F. HSU, DIRECTOR OF UTILITIES
DATE: MARCH 28, 2005
SUBJECT: APPROVAL OF EMERGENCY REPAIRS TO ORANGE AVENUE PIPELINE
RECOMMENDATION
It is recommended that the Azusa Utility Board/City Council declare an emergency and waive
formal bidding and approve a contract with Spiniello Construction for the repairs to a 12 -inch
pipeline in Orange Avenue for $131,480.
BACKGROUND
The Water Division was notified approximately three weeks ago that the City of West Covina
will pave Orange Avenue the week of May 1. The Water Division has a 12 -inch waterline in
Orange Avenue that has required several leak repairs over the last year which has made the
pipeline a prime candidate for replacement. However, the imminent paving of Orange Avenue
has made it necessary to reline the pipeline to stay ahead of the paving project. Cement
relining of pipeline is quicker and less expensive than replacement and is an acceptable
method for extending the life of existing pipelines. The Water Division has used relining on
several pipelines in the last few years and those pipelines have been effectively rejuvenated. If
the pipeline is not repaired, it may be necessary to cut the new pavement to make repairs
and then replacement the pavement per West Covina Specifications which require a
pavement patch 50 feet wide from curb to curb.
There are very few contractors who do pipeline relining with cement mortar coating. Spiniello
Companies of Santa Fe Springs has submitted an estimate of $131,480; Heitkamp, Inc., of
Watertown, Connecticut has submitted an estimate of $182,500.
FISCAL IMPACT
Funding for this project in amount of $131,480 will come from approved Capital
Improvement Project budget for Main Replacement work.

AND AZUSA CITY COUNCIL
FROM: JOSEPH F. HSU, DIRECTOR OF UTILITIES
DATE: MARCH 28, 2005 ^'
SUBJECT: REFUSE RATE ADJUSTMENTS FOR 2005-2006
RECOMMENDATION
It is recommended that the Azusa Utility Board/City Council approve of resolution amending
the agreement with Athens Services to reflect rate adjustments made pursuant to the
Franchise Agreement.
BACKGROUND
At its February 2005 meeting, the Utility Board learned that the Los Angeles County Sanitation
Districts was ratcheting up landfill rates over next couple years in order to pay for increased
costs associated with loading waste on trains and transporting waste to remote desert
landfills. New landfill rates went into effect on January 1, 2005, and another scheduled
increase will take place on January 1, 2006 (see attachment).
While our contract with Athens Services, our exclusive refuse collection contractor, calls for
rate adjustments annually on July 1, it is not advisable to wait until July this year due to landfill
cost increases. Pursuant to our Franchise Agreement, Athens is entitled to recover costs
associated with disposal of waste on a "pass-through" basis, meaning that if costs increase
$1, rates must be increased $1 to pay for the added costs. Athens does not profit on this
cost adjustment, it is just "passed -through" to the landfill operator, in our case, the Los
Angeles County Sanitation Districts.
In addition to adjusting rates to cover added disposal costs over this next year, it is
recommended that rates also be adjusted for changes in the consumer price index (CPI) since
the last adjustment. The CPI increased by 1.82 percent since our last adjustment, and it is
suggested that the City provide Athens Services with a CPI adjustment for contract -specified
rate components. These include: (1) the "Service Rate" which compensates Athens for
collection of solid waste and yard waste; and (2) the per ton "Processing Cost" which
compensates Athens for separating recyclable materials from mixed waste that is taken to
016
their Materials Recovery Facility or MRF. CPI adjustments and landfill cost increases impact
the City's franchise fee, which is 10 percent of the total fees for Service, Processing, Landfill
(disposal), and the Franchise fee itself. No adjustment is proposed for the City's AB 939 Fee
this year, which is applied to the total rate and used to pay for the City's compliance with AB
939, the state's recycling mandate.
Following table shows the proposed total rates for the different services, for rates effective
April 1, 2005, and inclusive of the aforementioned cost components:
Proposed
Monthly
Current Rate

Single Family Barrel Service
$19.05
$19.82

$15.87
$16.92
6.60%
3 Cubic Yard Bin -1 time per week
$91.76
$97.33
6.07%
Rate calculations are included in attachments, and a detailed rate schedule is also included for
all service levels.
FISCAL IMPACT
Single family rates will increase by $0.77 per customer per month or about $5,700 per month
for all customers; Multi -family rates will increase by $1.05 per customer per month or about
$6,300 per month for all customers; and Commercial bin service rates will increase by $5.57
per month for most common service level --a 3 -cubic yard bin serviced once per week, or
about $9,000 per month for all commercial customers.
The proposed rates are for effective period of April 1, 2005 through end of March 31, 2006,
and consider landfill adjustments by the Los Angeles County Sanitation Districts on January 1,
2005 and January 1, 2006.

File No. 31R-10.10
Rates for Solid Waste Materials Recovery Transfer, and disposal Facilities
This is to advise you of new rates to be charged at the Puente Hills Landfill, the Scholl Canyon
Landfill, the South Gate Transfer Station, the Downey Area Recycling and Transfer (DART) Facility, and
the new Puente Hills Materials Recovery Facility (MRF), starting January 1, 2005.
The Sanitation Districts have been working to provide a replacement solid waste management
system to serve the long-term solid waste management needs of communities throughout Los Angeles
County after the closure of the Puente Hills Landfill in 2013. The system will be comprised of materials
recovery/transfer stations, intermodal rail facilities, and remote out -of -County landfills. A cost transition
program is being implemented to avoid sudden large tipping fee increases that would otherwise result
after closure of the Puente Hills Landfill, and to smooth the transition to the full cost of remote disposal
over an approximately 20 -year period. The program will utilize the remaining capacity of the Puente Hills
Landfill, together with other sources, to accumulate funds to ensure that a fully operational, competitive
remote disposal system is available to replace the Puente Hills Landfill.
To implement the first three years of the cost transition program, the increase in the municipal
solid waste rate at the Puente Hills Landfill will be $1.77/ton per year, with the initial increase effective
January 1, 2005, and annually thereafter for two years. Increases in the minimum, hard -to -handle, tire,
and special handling rates for cost transition, and for reasons described later in this letter for the
hard -to -handle and tire rates, will also occur. The rates at the Puente Hills MRF will be the same as those
at the Puente Hills Landfill, for the categories of solid waste accepted at the MRF. The municipal solid
waste rates at the South Gate Transfer Station and at the DART Facility, which deliver much of their
waste to the Puente Hills Landfill, will increase by $1.77/ton this year, plus $0.02/ton for recent increases
to the County's Regulatory Service Fee, with subsequent annual increases of a minimum of $1.77/ton in
the following two years. Commensurate increases in the minimum and hard -to -handle rates at these
facilities will also occur.
The rates at the Scholl Canyon Landfill will increase this year, effective January 1, 2005, to
provide funds for capital projects and for general cost increases for routine operation and maintenance of
the site. The municipal solid waste rate at the Scholl Canyon Landfill will increase by $2.10/ton. The
increase is comprised of $1.00/ton in the Districts' basic operating rate, $0.66/ton to the City of Glendale
for the lease payment made pursuant to the Joint Powers Agreement, $0.42/ton for the City's required
host fee, and $0.02/ton for recent increases to the County's Regulatory Service Fee. Commensurate
increases in the minimum, hard -to -handle, tire, and special handling rates, plus increases described below
for the hard -to -handle and tire rates, will also occur.
�p Re-Yclea Pcper 019
City Manager/City Administrator -2- November 9, 2004
Increases for the hard -to -handle and tire rates, and for the fee charged for the green waste
recycling program at the Puente Hills Landfill, will also occur to offset certain increased costs. The rates
described in this paragraph for these categories include the amounts necessary for the County's business
license tax at the Puente Hills Landfill, and the lease payment and host fee to the City of Glendale at the
Scholl Canyon Landfill. The rates for hard -to -handle items will increase by $1.10/ton at the Puente Hills
Landfill, by. $1.25/ton at the Scholl Canyon Landfill, and by $1.00/ton at the South Gate Transfer Station
and the DART Facility to offset increased extra costs for handling these types of waste. The rate for tires
will increase by $5.50/ton at the Puente Hills Landfill and by $6.50/ton at Scholl Canyon Landfill to
offset costs for meeting new State tire manifesting regulations. In addition, the rate for tires at the Puente
Hills Landfill will increase by $4.40/ton in 2006 and 2007 to gradually offset increased operating costs
and it is anticipated that similar increases at the Scholl Canyon Landfill will be recommended in those
years. The fee charged for the green waste recycling program at the Puente Hills Landfill will increase by
$1.10/ton to offset costs to transport green waste to offsite locations. In addition, the charges for pull -off
services will increase, by different amounts at each landfill, to offset increased costs for providing the
services and to apply the same basic charge of $25.00 for the service at each site.
A copy of the new rate schedule is enclosed. If you have any questions regarding the rates, please
call me at 562-699-7411, extension 2401.
Very truly yours,

AGENDA ITEM
TO: HONORABLE CHAIRPERSON AND MEMBERS OF THE AZUSA UTILITY BOARD
AND AZUSA CITY COUNCIL
FROM: JOSEPH F. HSU, DIRECTOR OF UTILITIES /
DATE: MARCH 28, 2005
SUBJECT: LEASE OF CITY PROPERTY AT THE HECK RESERVOIR SITE ON SAN GABRIEL
CANYON ROAD TO VERIZON FOR WIRELESS FACILITIES
RECOMMENDATION
It is recommended that the Utility Board/City Council approve of a lease to Verizon Wireless
for a portion of property at the Canyon Filtration Plant Heck Reservoir site in amount of
$1,995 per month, and authorize City Manager to sign execution agreement version as
approved by City Attorney.
BACKGROUND
This is a continued item from February 2005 Utility Board meeting, at which the Utility Board
rejected the proposed lease amount of $1,500 per month with Verizon for a 250 square foot
area of land located near the Heck Reservoir, which is located at the northwest corner of San
Gabriel Canyon Road and Azusa San Gabriel Canyon Road, the site of Azusa Light & Water's
(ALW's) Canyon Water Filtration Treatment Plant. Verizon requested the lease so that they
may install an unmanned telecommunications facility that will provide wireless service to,
among others, the Mountain Cove (MC) subdivision in San Gabriel Canyon. To date, wireless
reception in MC is difficult if not completely unavailable. The wireless antenna to be erected
on the site has been approved by the Planning Department and will consist of a 52 foot high
monopole disguised as a pine tree, and a walled in area containing switchgear and emergency
generator. Verizon will also place three mature pine trees on the site at locations to be
determined by ALW staff. Staff renegotiated the lease amount at the direction of the Utility
Board at its last meeting, and Verizon agreed to increase their initial monthly payments to
$1,995 per month. The initial term of the lease would be ten years with automatic options to
renew for two additional five year terms.
FISCAL IMPACT
This action will add rent payments of $1,995 per month to the Water Fund for the first year
with a 3% annual escalator for the future.

SUBJECT: UPDATE ON SYSTEMS &SOFTWARE CUSTOMER INFORMATION SYSTEM
This is a project update of an item the Utility Board approved at the June 28, 2004, meeting
for a new Customer Information System and Interactive Voice Response System to be
purchased from third -party vendor, Systems &Software.
Work Completed
• S&S and Azusa finalized the enQuesta training plan. Introductory enQuesta training
was completed in early March for Customer Service staff and several other employees
throughout Light & Water. Those remaining to be trained will be trained by City staff
using the train -the -trainer model.
Azusa successfully re -programmed the data extraction routines. Instead of taking a
number of days, the process now only takes a few hours.
S&S provided Azusa with a Spanish Interactive Voice Response script for their review.
Azusa edited it and submitted it for production.
S&S sent Azusa a revised BPA document for final review.
Work in Progress
•
S&S and Azusa are wonting to verify the data conversion mapping. S&S has initiated
development of the data conversion programming. Certain concerns with the data
mapping and data conversion process were analyzed and summarized by S&S, then
presented to Azusa for discussion.
S&S is making good progress on programming the TOU capability for Azusa's use.
The Interactive Voice Response (IVR) is in the process of being programmed.
Work Delayed
• The Business Requirements Phase was intentionally delayed from the original schedule
so that S&S could focus on gathering TOU requirements early in the project. This
change will not negatively effect to the project.
Issues and Concems
• S&S has a growing concern regarding data mapping and data conversion issues. The
concerns are being reviewed and solutions evaluated.

Legislative & Regulatory
Update
Prepared by Bob Tang
March 28, 2005
045
California Public Utilities
Commission (CPUC) Resource
.;Adequacy Requirement (RAR)
• CPUC recently clarifies that RAR will be applicable on a year-
round basis and based on monthly peak demand, i.e., 15%-
17% additional power resource above the monthly peak
demand for all hours of the month
• CPUC acknowledges that such "ALL HOUR" may be too costly to
implement and without any incremental reliability benefit
• CPUC deferred the implementation of the RAR to the California
Independent System Operator (CAISO) in CAISO's market
redesign process
• CPUC is confident that CAISO will implement sensible market
rules to avoid costly resource procurement to achieve RAR
K
California Independent System
9. Operator's (CAISO) Market Redesign
• CAISO released the final conceptual market redesign elements
in late February for additional stakeholders input and comment
• The market redesign will re-create a spot wholesale market in
California based on a Locational Market Pricing (LMP) concept
widely used in the Eastern U.S. market
• CAISO intends to file conceptual design with the Federal Energy

INFORMATION ITEM
TO: HONORABLE CHAIRPERSON AND MEMBERS OF THE AZUSA UTILITY BOARD
AND AZUSA CITY COUNCIL
FROM: JOSEPH F. HSU, DIRECTOR OF UTILITIE-�-��
DATE: MARCH 28, 2005
SUBJECT: QUARTERLY FUEL COST ADJUSTMENT FOR SAN JUAN RESOURCE
On July 26, 2004, the Utility Board approved a fuel cost adjustment mechanism for San Juan
power plant. This mechanism is intended to credit ratepayers with cost savings that are
realized when our power plant operates reliably and replacement power cost are avoided, and
conversely, allow the Utility to increase revenues to recover a portion of our replacement
power costs when the San Juan resource experiences outages.
This report encompasses replacement power costs incurred for the San Juan resource during
the period of December 16, 2004 through March 15, 2005. The proposed adjustment will be
applied for the billing period of April 1, 2005 through June 30, 2005.
The adjustment amount is a CREDIT of 0.20 cents/ICWh or a DECREASE of about 2.0% in the
average retail electric rate as shown in the attachment. The Fuel Cost Adjustment decreased
from a charge of 0.21 cents/kWh in the first quarter of 2005 to a credit of 0.20 cents/kWh
credit in the second quarter of 2005 and reflects the improved performance of the San Juan
unit 3 during the period of December 16, 2004 through March 15, 2005. To the average
residential customer, this equates to a savings of about $1 per month for the months of April
through June 2005.
Because a mechanism of crediting amounts to customers is not available at this time due to
the implementation of the new customer billing system, the credit balance of $129,324 as
computed in Exhibit A will be carried forward to offset any under recoveries in the coming
months or until a crediting mechanism becomes fully functional, whichever occurs first.
