The City was required to agree to a "Plan of Correction" to implement certain programs by the end of 2005 to improve the City's solid waste diversion rate. The City has received a cost proposal from Federal Disposal Service, Inc., the City's Solid Waste Franchisee, to immediately implement the required programs. The proposed cost of the new programs is $977,403 and will require a rate increase for all commercial customers. In addition, staff is recommending approval of an amendment to the Franchise Agreement to implement an offer by Federal Disposal Service to forego a request for a PPI rate adjustment in 2005. RECOMMENDATION Staff recommends that the City Council: 1) Approve the Diversion Services Agreement with Federal Disposal Service, Inc.; 2) Approve a rate increase for all commercial customers; and, 3) Approve Amendment No.2 to the Solid Waste Management Services Franchise Agreement. FISCAL IMPACT The City collects a 2% franchise fee on commercial solid waste services. Staff anticipates that franchise fee revenue will increase by approximately $39,000. BACKGROUND Since the year 2000, cities and counties have been required to demonstrate that 50% of solid waste generated in the jurisdiction has been diverted from landfill disposal. To date, the City of Tustin has not attained compliance with this requirement. In 2002, the City received a two year time extension to implement various diversion programs related to the City's Solid waste Franchise Agreement with Federal Disposal, Inc. (the "Franchisee"). The time extension expired at the end of 2004 without the 50% diversion requirement being attained. Approval of 1) A Diversion Services Agreement with Federal Disposal Services, Inc, and, 2) A Rate Adjustment for Commercial Solid Waste Service, and, 3) Amendment #2 to the Solid Waste Management Services Franchise Agreement March 21,2004 . Page 2 In December of 2004, the California Integrated Waste Management Board (CIWMB) approved the City's request for a one-year time extension to allow the City to implement expanded programs to improve the City's solid waste diversion rate. The Plan of Correction approved by the state requires a 10% increase in diversion as measured against the year 2002. An increase in single family waste diversion increase can be largely accomplished with an enhanced public education and outreach effort with very minimal costs. Increased construction and demolition waste diversion is a City responsibility and is already being accomplished by the City's C&D Ordinance which the City Council modified in February. More than 50% of the waste collected by the City's hauler is generated by business and multifamily customers. Single family customers consistently divert 50% of their waste. The new programs in the Diversion Services Agreement are largely focused on commercial customers as these customers are not participating in programs sufficiently to achieve 50% diversion. The CIWMB identified programs and the minimum required improvement in waste diversion are listed in the table below. Expand Single Family Residential Commercial Onsite Source Separation Construction & Demolition Waste Commercial Transformation (Waste to Energy) Multi Family Source Separation TOTAL 1 2 3 2 2 10% Additional Diversion Tonnage 1,267 2,533 3,800 2,533 2,533 12,666 Program % increase The City and FDS disagree about the scope of FDS' obligations under the Franchise. The City believes that FDS is already obligated to perform diversion services to insure that 50% of the City's solid waste stream is diverted from landfills. However, in the interest of expeditiously implementing the CIWMB Plan of Correction, the City and FDS have agreed to disagree on this point and move forward with a stand alone diversion services agreement while reserving each party's rights under the existing Franchise agreement. Approval of 1) A Diversion Services Agreement with Federal Disposal Services, Inc, and, 2) A Rate Adjustment for Commercial Solid Waste Service, and, 3) Amendment #2 to the Solid Waste Management Services Franchise Agreement March 21, 2004 Page 3 The commercial program consists of a phased transition to a source-separated program for commercial and multifamily customers. In order to achieve an immediate increase in diversion, sufficient quantities of waste from commercial and multifamily customers will initially be sent to area material recovery facilities and to waste to energy, if needed. FDS will concurrently deploy special bins to selected multifamily customers and other bins will be deployed to the highest waste generating business customers. A program cost summary is provided below. FDS Diversion Services Proposal Education and Outreach costs Reporting to City and CIWMB Sub Total Collection Costs $ 23,000 $ 85,200 $ 17,500 $ 125,700 $ 156,417 $ 149,616 $ 374,040 $ 680,073 $ 108,380 $ 63,250 $ 171,630 $977,403 Materials Field VisitsNerification Labor Equipment Materials Sub Total Additional Waste Processing Costs MRFing Transformation Sub Total TOTAL PROPOSAL Due to the high proportion of commercial and multifamily waste in the City's total waste stream, the CIWMB has consistently emphasized the City's responsibility to improve its diversion of commercial and multifamily waste. The programs identified in the CIWMB plan of correction reflect this emphasis and consequently, staff is proposing that the entire cost of the new programs be borne by those customers. The proposed program will result in a 59% increase in commercial customer rates. For the most common customers who are serviced 3 times a week with a 3 yard bin, the rate increase is $75.94 or $911 annually. However, many customers will have an opportunity to avoid these increases if they choose participate in the source separation programs. A review Approval of 1) A Diversion Services Agreement with Federal Disposal Services, Inc, and, 2) A Rate Adjustment for Commercial Solid Waste Service, and, 3) Amendment #2 to the Solid Waste Management Services Franchise Agreement March 21,2004 Page 4 of the commercial solid waste rate history shows that the proposed commercial rates will remain lower than the rates charged by the City's prior hauler in the last year (2000) of their contract. In addition, the proposed rates are about average with other Orange County agencies. Exhibit 2 shows the proposed rate schedule and includes the rate history and a current partial survey of county commercial solid waste rates. In an effort to soften the impact of this rate adjustment, FDS has also proposed to waive its right to request a Producer Price Index ("PPI") rate adjustment for 2005 and not seek the 2005 adjustment in 2006. Contract Amendment #2 to the Franchise is required to reflect this offer and is attached as Exhibit 3. In conclusion, staff recommends that the City Council 1) approve the Diversion Services Agreement with Federal Disposal Service, Inc.and, 2) approve an immediate 59% rate increase for all commercial customers and, 3) approve Amendment #2 to the Solid Waste Management Services Franchise Agreement. fr~ Director of Public Works/City Engineer Manager Exhibit 1 Diversion Services Agreement Exhibit 2 Commercial solid waste services rate schedule Exhibit 3Amendment #2 to the Solid Waste Management Services Agreement Approval of FDS Diversion Svcs.

Homes that are not participating, or that have high levels of contamination. will be contacted in person or by written communication for homes that are unoccupied during working hours.

Specific barriers identified are (1) a lack of a specific implementation plan that systematically targets the largest businesses in the City and. (2) inadequate staff resources at both the City and the hauler level to adequately provide technical assistance and program development. AI the current level of diversion n would appear that an additional 320 bins need to be placed to divert a total of 1.600 tons per year. This would be a total of 480 bins out of a total of 650 commercial accounts in 203G-RC-OSP seNice throughout the City.

City staff will be working with the hauler in making more initial contacts throughout the commercial sector. The process for identifying additional accounts will begin with the largest 30 commercial generators. The process of selection will continue with the next 30 largest and continue until City staff and CIWMB are satisfied that all feasible accounts have been identified and that bins have been placed with appropriate training and monnoring.

Re: CitY of Tustin' Diversion Services Aareement Dear Mr. Shubin: As you are well aware, the City has been granted a Second Time Extension, until December 31, 2005, by the California Integrated Waste Management Board ("Board.), acting under the California Integrated Waste Management Act of 1989. The extension was needed because Federal Disposal Service (FOS) has not provided adequate diversion services. Federal's recent abortivè effort to convince the Board of the meri~ of their proposed programs exemplifies the problem for the City. It is acknowledged ihat the City and FDg have a dispute over the scope of the services and programs FDS must provide under the Franchise Agreement. We understand that FDS wíll ,not perform the diversion services and programs that were approved In the Second Time Extension without additional compensation. While the City believes none is due, the City desires to take all reasonable and feasible steps as soon as possíbie to cause the services and programs to be pert'omned. Therefore, the City is proposing in the enclosed agreement that the dispute between FDS and the City be reserved for resolution at another time. and that the parties preserve their rights. . The proposed Diversion Services Agreement follows the Work Plan approved by the Board and the anticipated compliance dates in the Second Time Extension. Exhibit A is the Work Plan approved by the Board. Exhibit B is the Plan of Correction. Exhibit C is the Cost Proposal that FDS needs to complete if it intends to sign the Agreement. As to the cost proposal, the services outlined in Exhibit A for residential customers should be easily accommodated by FDS under the existing rales. Consequently, no increased rates should be proposed or will be considered for residential customers. The tasks and programs in the Work Plan center on multi-family, commercial and industrial customers.

It Is imperative for the City to receive the executed agreement and completed cost proposal (Exhibit C) no later than 5:00 p.m. on February 16, 2005. Please note that except for the cost proposal, the City is not in the position to negotiate this agreement, and at the very least expects an executed agreement with a completed cost proposal within the time indicated above, or a statement that FDS will not agree to the terms and conditions of the proposed agreement In that latter event, the City will contract with another provider for the diversion services, and will consider its legal and equitable remedies against FDS.
