'Statement of the Matter
On May 9, 1978, the Council discussed the proposed Area Wide" ater Quality Management
Plan and noted some areas for futher consideration and suggested changes. Staff
reviewed and discussed the plan with City Council on June 13, 1978. At that meeting
the City Council adopted a position in accordance with certain modifications to the
plan. Councilman Skotnicki represented the City's position during the CPO adoption
of the water resource plan on June 19, 1978. As part of the approving action the
Board of Director's adopted several amendments to the plan, (see attached memo dated
'July 20, 1978, for discussion of the CPO's action).
Now that the plan is adopted CPO would like the City's commitment to implement
those recommendations relevant to Carlsbad and has drafted a proposed resolution for
Carlsbad's adoption. Adoption of this resolution is not mandatory, however, EPA
and the State Water Research Control Board has requested CPO to obtain commitments to
implement the plan., Also CPO wishes this commitment for the integrity of the plan.
(see memo dated July 20, 1978, for discussion of this resolution).
Evidently CPO will attach our resolution to the adopted plan when submitting the plan
to the State of California and the Federal Government for their eventual adoptions.

MEMORANDUM
TO: Paul Bu sey, City Manager
FROM: ! James C. Hagaman, Planning Director
DATE: July 20, 1978
SUBJECT: WATER QUALITY MANAGEMENT PLAN
The City Council discussed the subject rniatter on May 9th and
June 13th of this year. On June 13th, the CounAl adopted a
position that the plan be approved subject to th, following
comments and reservations:
1. Plan include a policy requiring a finding of General Plan
consistency.
2. The plan include a clear statement as to how the plan will
be modified upon the certification of the revised population
forecast.
3. The recommendation as to the designation of the County Water
Authority as a Water Facilities Planning Coordinator not be
approved unless some modification to the County Water
Authority Organizations are made, or in lieu thereof that
the CPO assume those functions given to the County Water
Authority.
Also, the Comprehensive Planning Organization staff suggested
amendments to the plan as contained in CPO report R-79-B. These
amendments, along with the two amendments adopted by the Board
of Directors contained in the attached letter dated 6/23/78
from the CPO,were adopted into the plan on June 19, 1978.
It appears that the first and third suggestions by our Council
on General Plan Consistency have been met as stated in the letter
of June 23, 1978. A statement was not inserted into the plan
indicating how the plan would be modified upon the certification
of revised population forecasts as suggested by our City Council.
The CPO has now asked us to adopt a resolution indicating
willingness to implement the plan where appropriate. Staff suggests
making modifications to this resolution to contain the City's
specific interest, especially in population forecasts and the fiscal
impact report. Attached to the letter from CPO on June 23, 1978,
is their draft resolution for the City of Carslbad. Staff has
taken this resolution, acid redrafted it to include the above concerns.
These changes include modifications of, the findings to the CPO's
recommended implementation activities #1 and 07. Changes to
#1 include agreement to participate in the "further study and
possible construction" of wastewater reclamation facilities rather
than agreement to assist in the actual construction at this
time. Staff also included an identified facility for LCWD

in this change. #7 was changed to the same wording as used
for #6 and #8 because the Agua Hedionda Specific Plan has not
yet been adopted by the City.
The modified resolution has been reviewed by Public Work's
Administrator as well as the Planning Department and we feel
it is adequate and within our scope of responsibilities and
work programs and therefore recommend that it be adopted for
the integrity of the Plan.
Adopting of a resolution by the City is not manditory, but the
Comprehensive Planning Organization desires City adoptions to
satisfy the State Suter Management Department and the Environmental
Protection Agency requests of City concurrence with the plan.

Dear Mr., Bussey:
On June 19, 1978, the Comprehensive Planning Organization adopted the Areawide
Water Quality Management Plan for -the San,Diego-Riverside area.
As part of its action, the Board of Directors adopted several amendments to the
Plan. Most of these amendments are listed'in Board Report R-74-b which is
attached to this letter.
Two of the most significant amendments were initiated, however, by the Board :and
are A6scribed below.
First, the Board decided to have the CatiprehensiVe Planning Organization rather
than the County'Water Authority prepare the, "detailed water resources_ elemeitt'
of the keawide Vater Quality Management Plan.
Second, the Board adopted a policy statement which reads as follows:
"Because the,.specific wastewater facility to be built will not be
identified until after the Fnvironmenfal Inpact Report and project
plan are prepared, it is recommended that no identified need for a
water or wastewater facility described in this plan or in subsequent
revisions should receive grant funds imder PL 92-SOU Section 201(g)
or be issued a discharge pernli.t under Section 402 until each general
purpose government within whose jurisdiction the facility lies mskes
a finding that the facility is consistent with the general plan.
All projects described in the Areawide Plan or in subsequent revi-
sions must be consistent with the general plan of each general
purpose government within whose jurisdiction the project lies-. At the
time each general purpose government reviews the proposed project
under its review powers granted by Covernment Code Sections 65401 and
65402, the project and/or capital facility plan will be reviewed for
confoimance to the Areawide Plan.
In addition, each agency proposing to construct such a facility shall
present evidence that each adjacent, affected or interested agency
,has been provided an opportunity to comment on or participate in the
project.

In order to avoid extending the already lengthy proj,c- re�riew pro-
cess, the CP) will verify consistency with local general plans and the
Areasvide Plan as part of the 01V A-95 review procedure (for applica-
tions under the Section 201 wastewater facility planning grunt pro-
gram) and as part of the review of Nvironmental Impact Reports as
authorized by the California Environmental Quality Act."
Several weeks ago, CPO staff sent you a draft resolution for your agency's
governing body to use in adopting the Areawide Plan and committing to implement
those recommendations relevant to you.
Enclosed with this letter, you will find a final draft of that resolution. The
staff has revised.the resolution only to make it consistent with the Plan as
now adopted by CPO. It still contains the actions your agency would carry out
as a part of its management responsibilities for the Areawide Plan.
We hope your agency will be able to approve the resolution in the near future
and I hope the working relationships between general and special purpose
agencies can continue to improve.
Thank you for reviewing the Areawide Plan and considering the resolution for
adoption; a CFO staff member will be in touch with you about it in the next
few days.

ARMIDE WATER QJAI.ITY MMAMIEN'r PLAN:
PLAN RE00,NNF T�DATIONS
At its February 27, 1978 meeting, the Board of Directors "accepted for dis-
tribution" the most important elements of the Areawide Water Quality Alanagement
Plan.
In bhrch, the recommendations were distributed throughout the area for review
prior to Board action on the Plan. Comments and recommendations have since -been
received from a number of agencies, organizations and individuals; many of these
comments are listed in Agenda Report R-74-a (both the blay and June versions).
In this memorandum, the staff is recommending that the Board of Directors adopt
the Areawide Plan with the changes listed herein. Before acting, the Board
should also consider the recommendations of the Elected Officials Task Force,
Program banagement Committee and Areawide Advisory Committee. To keep it as
Short as possible, this memorandum contains only the changes recommended to the
original draft. Board members may, therefore, want to bring the appropriate
draft Plan reports witli them..
As a result ofriieetings with local agency staffs and some additional correspon-
dence, a number of changes have been made in staff recommendations on the Final
Plan since the last Board meeting. Therefore, this memorandum completely super-
sedes the men, orandtm R-74-b•given to -the Board for the May meeting. It is my
RE-con1ENDATION
that the Areawide Water Quality Management Plan for the San Diego -Riverside
area be adopted with the modifications listed in this report and that this
report together with the modifications, the final Environmental, Social and
Economic Assessment, and all support documents to the Plan, be submitted to
the State Water Resources Control Board for certification and adoption and
to the U. S. Environmental Protection Agency for approval.
NWIAGO. NT R%SPaNSIBILITIES
Recommendations on management responsibilities will be made by the Elected
Officials Task Force, which was appointed by the Board of Directors to work on
this element of the Plan. Director Rypinski, Chairperson of the Task Force,
I
.{ 2.
will report on the group's findings. The Task Force report, the report of the
Areawide Advisory Committee, and the recommendations of the Riverside County
represcntatives of the Santa Margarita -San Luis Rey iatershed Planning Agency
are attached to this memorandum:
The staff recommends only three changes in this element of the Plan. They
are:
1. That appropriate language be added to the Plan reports and proposals to
recognize the autonomy of Riverside County and that Riverside County cannot
be legally bound by decisions of governmental agencies in San Diego County.
Specifically it is recommended that the following changes be made: (new
wording is underlined)
"Planning
1. The continuing planning process, areawide forecasts, and the coordina-
tion of growth management activities should be the responsibility of
the Comrprehensive Planning Organization and the County of Riverside."
"Implementation
7. An areawide water resources plan should be prepared and updated annual
under the direction of the San Diego County Water Authority. The SNI-SL
Watershed Planning Agency will coTpile the Water Resources Plan or
Ui
River sa a County portion o oration
by
- t ie County Water Authority. '
"Operations
11. An areawide reclamation fund should be established by the County Water
Authority. Decisions on fundir rye eclamation ro'ects in Riverside
County will be ma a agencies in RiversiderCounty. T is ma inclucle
2. That the recommendations for consolidation studies of Poway nVD-Pomerado
CWD, Fallbrool SD-Fallbrook PUD, and Padre Dam MVD be modified to (a) re-
flect past consolidation efforts, and (b) allow the studies to be con-
ducted as part of future incorporation studies.
3. If the proposal is adopted by the Board for the annual preparation of a
detailed water resources plan using the County Water Authority as the "lead
agency", the CPO and the CWA shall prepare a memorandum of agreement which
addresses mutual responsibilities. The agreement shall, as a minimum, in-
clude:
a. recognition of the Plan review responsibility of the local general
purpose governments and the annual Plan approval responsibility of
the CPO; recognition of the responsibility of the RIQCB to approve
the wastewater facilities portion of the detailed plan;
h. the tutderstanding that the currently adopted Regional Growth Forecasts
mid Cities and County General Plans will provide the policy, capacity,
and statistical basis for the detailed water resources Plan;
c. the scope of the detailed water resources plan and how it Ii.ts within
the Areawide Water Quality Management Plan and the RWQCB's Basin Plan;
d. the schedule for annually preparing the detailed plan so that it is
compatible with updates of the Basin and Areawide Plans and the Cities'
and County's implementation of Government Codes 65401-02;
e. assurances that `he preparation of the detailed plan continues to make
use of the agen-.Les (e.g., CPO, County, 141QCB, SMSLR) already collec-
ting part of the information on proposed facilities so that cost and
staff increases car be avoided.
WATER QUALITY PROBIB45 $ MANAGEMarr RESPONSIBILITIES
Lagoons and Sedimentation
1. Several comments were made disagreeing with the consultant's conclusion
that sedimentation of lagoons is not a significant problem. Residents of
coastal areas and interested organizations and agencies such as the Regional
Coastal Commission and the San Elijo Alliance, believe it is a problem.
In response, the ESFA Addendum states that the consultant addressed long-
term sedimentation rather than short-term, localized sedimentation occur-
ring during construction.
Nevertheless, it is recommended that the Lagoon Management Programs" pro-
posed in the Plan include the review and, if necessary, revision of local
seffl.mentation control ordinances.
2. It is recomnended that the Counties of San Diego and Riverside each adopt
an agricultural sedimentation control ordinance modeled after the one
provided to CPO by the water resources consultant. The respective ordi-
nances can be implemented by the Resource Conservation Dist.icts (which have
already expressed s}ipport for the program) and the Regional Water Quality
Control Board.
The model ordinance contains "best management practices" for prevention
of agricultural erosion and a procedure for enforcement. Enforcement:
procedures would be carried out by -the RCD Boards and, as an appeals body,
the RWQCB.
(The final plan report will also include a map of agricultural areas that
would be eligible for cost -sharing grants from the RCD/U. S. Soil Conser-
vation Service for erosion prevention facilities. These grants, established
by the "Culver Amendments", were enacted as part of the Federal 11arer Pol-
lution Control Act Amendments of 1977.)
Bays, Lakes and Reservoirs
1. It is recommended that the Regional Water Quality Control 'Board be desig-
nated as the "lead agency" for setting up the interagency agreement to
control minor pollution problems in San Diego Bay. The San Diego Unified
Port District, originally proposed as lead agency, believes that the lead
responsibility- should be given to an agency with a "preemptive role" in
water duality.
2. It is recommended that the proposal to convert Lake Hodges to primarily
recreational use be dropped. Further analysis of the possibility of partial
conversion of Hodges should await the results of the City of San Diego's
"bio-lake" project. The bio-lake project includes a study of the effects
on Hodges of infiltration of reclaimed water used upstream for agricultural
irrigation in the San Pasqual Valley.
3. It is further recommended that the proposal to convert Sweetwater Reservoir
to primarily recreational use also be dropped, at least until the Sweet-
water Authority has another emergency source of water supply, as requested
by the State Department of Health. It is reconmended instead that xecrea-
tional use be limited to boating and fishing and that the lake should con-
tinue to be operated primarily as a water supply reservoir.
Ground<aater Quality
It is recommended that the 1190%" and "25%" be dropped from, the proposals for
agricultural irrigation efficiency and fertilizer application.
The University of California Extensiovx Service in Riverside is evaluating the
recommendations for improved irrigation; and fertilizer efficiency. However,
the specific amount of improvement achieved on each farm property will depenc
on soil and crop types rather than a numter established in the Plan.
Results of the tests will allow farmers, the Soil Conservation Service and the
Resource Conservation Districts to set specific goals for each local area.
Test results will be distributed by UC-Riverside, the SCS, the RCD's, and the
Department of Agriculture.
WASTF:i'IATER TREATMENT SYSTFM NEEDS
AND MhNAGEMENT RFSPOASIBILITIFS
1. It is recommended that the wastewater projects listed for Dehesa and Jamul
in the original draft of the Plan be dropped. Population growth forecasts
for these communities are not high enough to warrant sewer service before
1995.
2. The text of the Wastewater Treatment S tems Needs and Management Respon-
sibilities Report will a amended to indicate that the replacement of iYe-
Vainbow lan B may not be needed if the County Growth Management Plan is
approved. A statement will also be added on each facilities map and in the
appropriate Wastewater Treatment and Transmission Needs tables in the same
report, as follows:
"The facilities described represent one viable alternative to meet
an identified need. Tare operating agency is required to identify
and analyze other viable alterr3tives (including no action) as part
S.
of the Environmental Impact Report process. Further, the needs iden-
tified may change or be eliminated if the growth policies and plans
of general purpose goverrurents change. The population forecasts and
the needs ctisessment will be updated to incorporate these local policy
and Plan changes."
Ik cause the specific facility to be built will not be identified until after
the Enviroilmental Impact Report and project plan are prepared, it is further
recommended that the following policy statement be added to the plan:
No identified need for a water or wastewater facility described in
this plan or in subsequent revisions should receive grant funds under
PL 92-500 Section 201(g) or be issued a discharge petrnit under Section
402 until each general purpose government within whose jurisdiction
the facility lies makes a finding that the facility is consistent with
the general plan.
In addition, each agency proposing to construct such a facility shall.
present evidence that each adjacent, affected, or interested agency
has been provided an opportunity to comment on or participate in the
proj ect.
In order to avoid extending the already lengthy project review process,
this review should be carried out as part of the OM A-95 review procedure
(for applications under the Section 201 wastewater facility planning grant
program) and as part of the review of Environmental Impact Reports as
authorized by the California Environmental Quality Act.
Water Conservation
1. It is recommended that the City/County Water Conservation Task Force recom-
mendations on methods to conserve water be adopted as part of the Areawide
titiater Quality Management Man.
2. It is further recommended that water conservation programs be applied
throughout the service area of the County Dater Authority. Retailing Water
agencies should be responsible for identify3.ng appropriate conservation
programs for their service areas and for setting targets for the coming
year, The County Water Authority should review and incorporate these
programs in the Water Resources Plan.
Wastewater Reclamation
1. Five reclamation facilities, all. shown on the table at the end of this
report, are recommended to be added to the proposed project list. Also,
the reclamation project proposed for Fallbrook is recon6ended to be moved
to Category 2 (1983-88) and the San Mateo project is recommended to be
deleted.
The actions required of the local sewer agencies that would be responsible
for a reclamation project include salt balance and/or nutrient level studies,
source control programs for salts, long-term commitments from users., re-
venue programs and project reports and EIR's. The San Diego County Water
6.
Reuse Project can do some of these studies; CPO will work to get funds for
the studies, and the study methodologies and results must be approved by
the NM,10i.)
2. it is recoinuended that the County of San Diego instruct the County health
]k,partment to prepare a program to permit the use of shower, sink and
laundry water (sometimes referred to as "grey water") for home lawn irri-
gation.
3. It is recommended that the Board reaffirm its statement on a flexible
approach to the application of groundwater quality objectives (adopted
by the Board on January 23, 1978) and that it be adopted as part of the
Areawide ]rater Quality tbnagement Plan, as described below:
Rather than use a standard divisor (the so-called "one-third rule")
to determine mineral limitations on reclaimed water used for spray
irrigations and similar activities, the Regional Board should'zuke
case -by -case determinations based upon salt balance studies carried
out by the Regional Board and/or the applicant discharger; and
The State Water Resources Control Board and the Regional Board should
adopt a more flexible approach to the application and utilization of
the water quality objectives set forth'in the Basin Plan (rather than
the strict interpretation of the "Rancho Caballero decision" by the
State Board), particularly where it is shown that a net water resource
benefit can be achieved.

Council members present, and Mayor Packard
announced that litigation had been discussed.
[371 . COUNCIL TRAINING SESSION:
Mayor Packard stated the training session for
Council needed to be discusses+ briefly.
The City Manager stated Council had previously
'been requested to reserve June 16th and June
17th for their trainIng session, assuming the new
Council member would be seated at that time. Fie
requested direction from Council as to the timin
for the session:
Council indicated they would be available for
the training Friday afternoon and all day Satur-
day.
The City Manager stated he would confirm the
time with Mr. Gregg and notify Council.
C�5] 1-. WATER QUALITY MANAGEMENT PROGRAM (208 STUDY
The Planning Director gave a brief introduction
of the matter, followed by a•staff report from
Michael Zander of the Planning Department.
*. Zander referenced'the Memorandum from the
Planning Department to Council dated June 14,
1978, and the Memorandum from the Planning
Department to Council dated May 4, 1978, and
outlined the major issues contained in each.
The Public Works Administrator reported that the
Basin Plan is one of the criteria which needs to
be addressed when anything is done in the area
which deals with water management. Further, the
Basin Plan for the San Diego region has been
critically reviewed by the state; and the
Regional Board has been requested to rea•pprafse
their proposed Basin Plan to further encourage
the possibility of -reclamation programs within
the County. Therefore, he stated it would be
desirable to incorporate the Basin Plan with the
I
208 Plan.
Councilman Skotnicki stated the Basin Plan is in
fact, by reference, made a part of the 208 Plan.
j
With regard to the Population IVB Forecasts, he
stated the County feels the Forecasts will be
detrimental to the attainment of air quality
standards; therefore, the County desires their
growth management methodology be adopted in
reducing the overall distribution of population
in the County.

PLAN.
The Planning Director gave a brief introduction
E
of the matter stating staff had reviewed the 208
{
Plan over the past few weeks and'attempted to
1
indicate its origin and interrelationship with
i
various other programs.
Mr. Michael Zander of`the Planning Department
ti
E
then gave a background report of the matter and
stated there appears to be a strong relationship
or connection between the 208 Plan and the Air
Quality Maintenance Program. He then outlined
a
the areas of concern contained in -the memorandum
a
from the Planning Department to Council dated
;
May 4, 1978.
Councilman Skotnicki questioned whether the City
i
could support the population figures financially
=
as well as with the necessary public facilities.
!
IN response, staff stated the figures were not
leased on a city's•ability to service the popula-
i
tiou levels.
F•
t
Councilman Skotnicki expressed the feeling that
if the City desired to build wastewater treatment
facilities in the future, it would be necessary
to insure their inclusion in the 208 Plan if
;
federal or state funding was desired.
{
;
Ile continued stating the Council should consider
the
4t
M
following items:
t
S
1. Whether to take a position on tl-e deficiencie
noted by the County as to air quality.
i
2. Whether to agree with the County that all
projects to considered consistent with General
Plans before they are.considered for federal
funding.
3. Whether to agree with the Cnunty that the
basin plan not be included in the 208 Plan.
4. Whether to agree with the County that popula-
tion forecasts 48 need to be reviewed; and
,
5. What position to take on the management issue
Staff expressed the feeling that the 208 Plan and
the Air Quality Maintenance Plan will be regional
planning documents of the County and will be the
basis for regional government in the County,
rC
In addition, staff stated.there arere inconsisten-
cies in the Plan. Wherein one portion may classi
y
a project as unfeasible, another portion may call'
for the completion of that same project within 4
5 years. Further, as proposed, there appears to
!
be no method by which Carlsbad can have input
`
into amendments to the Plan.
