A more detailed report is attached describing the facility and costs involved to opera plant. (Appendix D from the Updated Sewer Master Plan.) HISTORY The Calavera Hills Reclamation Plant was conceived in the late 1970’s during a ti a periodic drought and during a moratorium on development due to a short? wastewater treatment capacity. The plant was originally designed and approved capacity of 1.2 million gallons per day (MGD) serving major segments of the noi quadrant of the City. Effluent discharge was proposed to be disposed of on th upstream of the Agua Hedionda Lagoon. No ocean outfall was permitted or inclu initial construction. The facility was not completed until late in 1981. The City accepted the pl: agreement dated January 20, 1982. Upon acceptance of the facility, the develop issued a $2,866,778 credit against future sewer connection fees. The plant has never operated with wastewater until the current testing being perf as a condition of the City’s Wastewater Treatment Capacity Lease with the City of That agreement stipulates the Calavera Plant a potential back up capacity to Emir such time as the Phase IV expansion of Encina is completed sometime in 1992. The purpose of the thirty-day test was to determine the technical and operational \ of plant. Testing was initiated on March 21, and should be completed by April 2 WASTEWATER TREATMENT CAPACITY The attached appendix to the 1987 Sewer Master Plan presents a detailed evalua the costs associated with operation of the Calavera Plant. This study concludi operation - of the facility for wastewater treatment is not cost-effective as long as c exists at Encina. Although the plant is designed for 1.2 MGD, 0.20 MGD reaches the plant curren a planned potential of 0.88 MGD. To reach this potential, six sewer lift static required, of which four are currently operational. 0 m PAGE: 2 LAKE CALAVERA HILLS WATER RECLAMATION PLANT SERVICE AREA Flow Area EDUs Average MGD Zone 7 Existing 1,153 0.25 Approved 750 0.17 Future 613 0.13 Subtotal 2,5 16 0.55 Zone 2B and 2C Existing 1,321 0.29 Approved 168 0.04 Future 6 0.00 Sub to tal 1,495 0.33 TOTAL 4,011 0.88 The annual cost of operating a lift station has been estimated at $15,900 in current ( Total cost of $95,400 annually at full operation. The master plan calls for gravity se these facilities to allow mothballing lift stations to reduce costs. Full operation of C: at 1.2 MGD would require additional pumping to the plant. CAPITAL IMPROVEMENT COST To make the Calavera facility operational for wastewater treatment will requi installation of an Effluent Disposal Line (EDL) and lift station, a solids disposal li improvements to the existing lift station at El Camino Real and Tamarack. estimated costs is $1,605,000. Staff has recently been exploring utilization of CRMWD waterline in El Camino E the EDL. This would effect a potential savings of up to $500,000. These improvements would only allow operation as a wastewater facility. To upgrz plant for water reclamation would require installation of additional facilities estimi cost $1,028,000. ENCINA COST COMPARISON The current planned expansion of Encina is estimated to cost approximately $2,800,( MGD. To replace the Calavera capacity at Encina would cost an estimated $2,5 This should be compared to the $1,000,000 to $1,605,000 to make Calavera operatic wastewater treatment. The net replacement cost at Encina is therefore $900, $1,400,000. m PAGE: 3 0 OPERATIONAL COST COMPARISON The Calavera Hills Water Reclamation Plant is a small isolated operation that has rec the installation of numerous small pump stations to fully utilize. It does not enjc tremendous economics of scale available at Encina. The Sewer Master Plan quantifies the cost differences, and concluded that the incren cost of operating Calavera in-lieu of the same capacity at Encina exceeds $300,00 year. Based on the expense of bringing Lake Calavera Hills Reclamation Plant on-line ar operational expenses associated with the facility the adopted Council policv - has bee the facility should onlv operate as last resort wastewater treatment capacity - or as i of an overall water reclamation program. FUTURE CONSIDERATION In considering the long-term future of the Calavera Hills Water Reclamation Plant, s issues remains to be resolved: 1. Can the plant operate with minimal negative environmental impacts. 2. The market and economics of reclaimed water usage. 3. Wastewater treatment capacity needs. Operation Consideration The current testing program will give us our first direct experience to evaluai operational problems associated with the facility. operations and capital costs that may be further required to operate the plant with m neighborhood disturbance. Water Reclamation Role The City is currently preparing a Water Reclamation plan which will fully asst markets, costs and financial considerations involved in the use of reclaimed throughout the City. The San Diego region is an arid coastal plain which imports almost its total water I Very little of that water is currently reclaimed, and most is disposed of into the Should water become scarce, utilization of reclaimed water will likely become a ne Under those circumstances, the Calavera Hills facility could become an invaluable the City’s overall water supply. The full value of the Calavera Hills Plant will only be known at the completion current Water Reclamation Master Plan. It will also help us further m PAGE: 4 0 Buildout Treatment Capacity Carlsbad is a member of the Encina Joint Powers which provides wastewater trea capacity to the Encina Sewer basin. This capacity is currently provided at the E Treatment Plant (WPCF) located southwest of Interstate 5 and Palomar Airport Ri Carlsbad. The Encina WPCF has an existing capacity of 22.5 MGD, but will soon be expanc 36 MGD. The original master plan called for the Encina WPCF to reach 45 Mc buildout of the basin. Recent studies would seem to indicate that at buildout the region will require i treatment capacity of 54 MGD. To provide buildout capacity will require either additional inland treatment capac expansion of the Encina WPCF beyond the originally master planned 45 MGD. alternative impacts residents of Carlsbad and water reclamation policies for the rei CONCLUSION In conclusion, it is staffs opinion that insufficient knowledge exists to determi1 ultimate fate of the Lake Calavera Hills Water Reclamation facility. Current conc make operation of the facility unnecessary and fiscally imprudent. Future consideration of wastewater treatment and overall water supply considerations make the facility a valuable asset. It is recommended that Council maintain the facility in the "mothballed" state and co to explore all relevant facts. At conclusion of the City's Water Reclamation Maste and Encina Master Planning, the matter can be further evaluated.

The plant was originally conceived as reclamation facility, but to date has never been operatc Major construction and a substantial expenditure of fu~ would be required to make the plant operational. History of the Lake Calavera Hills Water Reclamation Plan1 The plant was completed in 1981 and turned over to the C: of Carlsbad for operation and maintenance. The plant is 1 owned by the City of Carlsbad and all future upgrades i all costs for operation and maintenance of the plant will borne by the City of Carlsbad. The original service area for the plant has been modifie When the plant was conceived, most of the northeast quadre of the City of Carlsbad was served by this plant. The Jur 1984 Master Plan recommended including only the Ls Calavera Hills Planning Area in the plant's service are Lake Calavera Hills Planning Area is Growth Management Zc 7. Purpose The purpose of this report is to evaluate the status of t Lake Calavera Hills Water Reclamation Plant and to establi policies for when the plant could be made operational. T plant could be put into operation to provide addition wastewater treatment capacity or to reclaim water. T majority of this report will focus on the start-up of t plant for additional wastewater treatment capacity. T final chapter of this report will examine reclamati issues. This report will also provide a time line and co estimates for start-up of the Lake Calavera Hills Wat Reclamation Plant for comparison with other treatme alternatives.

The LC Calavera Hills Water Reclamation Plant is an extenc aeration plant utilizing the oxidation ditch process. oxidation ditch process utilizes oval tanks to provide bc primary and secondary treatment to the wastewater. Oxygen is introduced into the tanks by the use of brt aerators. Each tank has two brush aerators. The tanks i designed with a detention time of 24.9 hours and have biochemical oxygen demand loading rate of 2,500 pounds E day. Flow from these tanks is sent to the clarifiers. Clarifiers. The clarifiers at the plant provide the fir unit process for the liquid stream prior to chlorinatio The clarifiers separate the aeration tank effluent into solid stream and a liquid stream. The liquid stream is se to the chlorine contact facilities and the solid stream either sent back to the oxidation ditch process or to t solids processing train. The clarifiers have an overfl rate of 400 gallons per square foot per day and a design detention time of 4.5 hours at average flow. Chlorination. The chlorine contact chamber has a volume 43,000 gallons and provides for a detention time of minutes at peak flow. This facility is not needed for oce discharge but would be needed for reclamation. Return Activated Sludge - Waste Activated Sludge Pumps. T clarifier underdrains are connected to three pumps. The pumps can either be used to return solids to the aerati tanks or to send them to the aerobic. digester. Solids a normally returned to the aeration tanks as part of t secondary treatment process. In order to prevent accumulation of solids in the aeration tanks, solids ai routinely wasted to the aerobic digester. Aerobic Digester. The aerobic digester has a volume ( 75,000 gallons. It provides for a liquid detention time ( 25 days. The purpose of the aerobic digester is ' stabilize the solids prior to ultimate disposal. Belt Filter Presses. The plant has a Winkle belt filtt press capable of handling 25 gallons per minute with t approximate influent solids of 1.5 percent. It will outpt a minimum solids of 15 percent. This process dewaters tk digested sludge and reduces the volume which needs to t trucked to a landfill. This is the final sludge processir unit prior to disposal. D- 9 Area Zone 7 Existing Approved Future Subtotal Zone 2B and 2C Existing Approved Future Subtotal TOTAL Flow, EDUs Average mgd 1,153 0.25 750 0.17 613 0.13 2,516 0.55 1 , 321 0.29 168 0.04 6 0.00 1 , 495 0.33 4,011 0.88 a a The current estimated flow from Zones 2B, 2C and 7 is 0 million gallons per day. This flow could reach the pl, utilizing existing sewage pumping stations. The serv area should be fully developed within the next five yea Thus, within five years, 0.88 million gallons per day flow could reach the Lake Calavera Hills Water Reclamat Plant utilizing existing sewage lift stations. The service area ultimate flow of 0.88 million gallons I day should meet the reclamation needs for the foreseeal future. We, therefore, do not recommend increasing I service area of the plant beyond Zones ZB, 2C and 7 becat this would require the construction of new sewage 1: stations. If additional reclaimed water is needed in I future beyond the 0.88 million gallons per day, this nc could be met either by other upstream reclamation plan1 such as Shadow Ridge, Meadowlark or the Gafner plant, or that time construction of additional lift stations could reviewed to increase the inflow to the Lake Calavera Hi1 Water Reclamation Plant to its 1.2 million gallons per d design capacity. Pumped Flow to the Lake Calavera Hills Water Reclamati Plant. There are four lift stations serving Zone 7. The lift stations are needed to get sewage to the Lake Calave Hills Water Reclamation Plant. The master plan calls f two sewage lift stations to serve the Zone 7 area. Howeve the location of development has required more stations serve the Lake Calavera Hills area. If the Lake Calave Hills Water Reclamation Plant was not used, these fo sewage pumping stations could be abandoned. The flow wou have to be pumped to the Encina Water Pollution Contr Facility through other lift stations. However, these 0th lift stations would be needed regardless of flows from t Lake Calavera Hills Water Reclamation Plant. Thus, the La Calavera Hills Water Reclamation Plant is requiring the Ci of Carlsbad to maintain an additional four pumping station The pumping costs associated with these stations are minc but the labor costs and equipment costs to keep thes stations running are significant. Table D2-3 estimates the cost to operate and maintain small sewage lift station for a one year period to 1 $15,900. Since there are four stations at the present time it is costing an additional $63,600 per year to have th option of operating the Lake .GalaVera Hills Wate Reclamation Plant. This money could be saved if the Lak Calavera Hills Water Reclamation Plant was not operated an gravity lines were provided.

Additio facilities would be required to operate the plant for wa reclamation. Those improvements are discussed in Chapter Major offsite improvements include completion of effluent disposal line and the sludge disposal line, effluent pump station and Zone 2 lift station improvement Effluent Disposal Line The effluent disposal line will have to be completed f the Lake Calavera Hills Water Reclamation Plant to the oc outfall at the Encina Water Pollution Control Facili Some reaches of the line exist, some reaches are un construction and some reaches have not been installed. S of the existing reaches need to be replaced due to impro construction. The reaches are identified in Figure D3-1. The section of line from the Lake Calavera Hills Wal Reclamation Plant to the intersection of El Camino Real i Tamarack Avenue, Reach A, exists but will need to replaced based on testing done by the City of Carlsb; This reach of line will not hold test pressures. The portion of line from the intersection of El Camino Rt and Tamarack Avenue to El Camino Real at College Boulevai Reach B, has been designed, but has not yet be constructed . The section of line in College Boulevard from El Camino RE to Palomar Airport Road, Reach C, is currently unc construction by The Koll Company.

In order to convey excess treated effluent to the Enci Ocean Outfall, an effluent pumping station would have to constructed downstream from the Lake Calavera Hills Wat Reclamation Plant. Figure D3-1 indentifies the efflue pump station, and Table D3-1 includes the estimated cost this facility. To date no work has been done to size locate this facility. D-13 .

Offsite Treatment of Solids. The City of Carlsbad h, excess solids handling capacity at the Encina Wati Pollution Control Facility. This excess solids handli capacity would meet the needs of the full 1.2 mgd capaci of the Lake Calavera Hills Water Reclamation Plant. order to discharge solids from the Lake Calavera Hills Wat Reclamation Plant into gravity sewers for conveyance to t. Encina Water Pollution Control Facility, construction ( approximately 4,500 feet of 8-inch gravity sewer would 1 required. The cost for construction of this gravity sew( as shown in Table D3-1 is $293,000. The proposed route : shown on Figure D3-1. Treatment of the solids at the EnciI Water Pollution Control Facility would greatly reduce tl risk of odors being generated at the Lake Calavera Hil: Water Reclamation Plant. Sewage Lift Station In order to fully utilize the capacity of the Lake Calaver Hills Water Reclamation Plant, the existing lift station a Tamarack Avenue and El Camino Real would have to b utilized. This lift station has a number of improvement which should be put in place prior to making it operational These improvements involve site work to allow for the safe efficient maintenance of the station.- We estimate that i will cost $40,000 for paving, fencing and a roadway into th existing lift station. This estimate assumes that th existing lift station has no inherent equipment problem which would require replacement of major components. D-16 e 0 CHAPTER 4 OPERATIONAL COSTS The operational cost of the Lake Calavera Hills Wa Reclamation Plant cannot be analyzed independently. cost of pumping to and treatment at the Lake Calavera Hi Water Reclamation Plant must be contrasted with the cost pumping to and treatment at the Encina Water Pollut: Control Facility. Cost of Treatment Table D4-1 provides a detailed comparison of the cost operation of the Lake Calavera Hills Water Reclamation Plc versus the Encina Water Pollution Control Facility. TI estimate assumes the City of Carlsbad has capacity availal at both facilities. The operation and maintenance cost the Lake Calavera Hills Water Reclamation Plant with a fl of 0.88 million gallons per day would be approximatc $262,100 per year more than treatment at the Encina Wat Pollution Control Facility. Charges for treatment at t Encina Water Pollution Control Facility are based on bo ownership and flow. The ownership cost at the Encina Wat Pollution Control Facility is the same whether or not t flow is routed to Lake Calavera Hills Water Reclamati Plant. The ownership cost makes up a large percentage the Encina Water Pollution Control Facility treatment cos Thus, the saving at the Encina Water Pollution Contr Facility for the Lake Calavera Hills Water Reclamation Pla is less than the cost of treatment. Pumping Costs Flow must be pumped to reach either the Lake Calavera Hil. Water Reclamation Plant or the Encina Water Pollutic Control Facility. However, as discussed in Chapter 2, fii lift stations are needed to pump the entire service area 1 the Lake Calavera Hills Water Reclamation Plant. To opera1 all of these stations would cost $79,500 per year. Four ( these stations are currently operating. If gravity sewei were installed and the Lake Calavera Hills Water Reclamatic Plant was not operating, $63,600 per year in pumping cost could be saved. Operational Improvements A gravity outfall from the Lake Calavera Hills Wate Reclamation Plant to the gravity sewer in El Camino Real a Tamarack Avenue should be installed. This line could serv 0-17 0 0 two purposes. When the plant is not operational, it c( be a gravity outfall for the flow from the plant. When plant is operational, it would serve as the solids dispc line discussed in Chapter 3. D-18 e 0 Table D4-1. Operation and Maintenance Cost Estimate Dollars/year 1.

As can be seen in this chart, there are three ma. items which must be completed to start up the plant. TI are the effluent disposal line, the sludge disposal line i staffing of the plant. It is estimated that it could ta up to two years from the date of completion of the desi for the effluent disposal line and the sludge disposal li until the plant can be started up. This time table assumes that the City of Carlsbad staff wi operate the plant. It may be more cost effective a require less time to contract with the Encina Wat Pollution Control Facility for operation of the plant. order to assure that sewage treatment capacity will available when it is needed, the City of Carlsbad shou commence design work for the needed facilities for the La Calavera Hills Water Reclamation Plant three years prior anticipated need.

D-25 4 * II) *s * CHAPTER 7 SUMMARY, CONCLUSIONS AND POLICY DISCUSSION This chapter provides a summary of the policies conclusions presented in this appendix. 1. The ultimate service area for the Lake Calavera Hills Water Reclamation Plant, whether it is 1 as a reclamation plant or a treatment plant, shc be Growth Management Zones 7, 2B and 2C. 2. A gravity outfall sewer line from the Lake Calav Hills Water Reclamation Plant to the corner Tamarack Avenue and El Camino Real should constructed.. This line will serve as the sol disposal line when the plant is operating and w serve as the wastewater outfall line to the Enc Water Pollution Control Facility when the plant not operating. 3. Gravity pipelines should be constructed to all sewage lift stations in Zone 2 and Zone 7 wh: pump flow to the Lake Calavera Hills Wa' Reclamation Plant in order to convey flow to 1 Encina Water Pollution Control Facility when ; Lake Calavera Hills Water Reclamation Plant is r in operation. 4. The total cost to operate the Lake Calavera Hill2 Water Reclamation Plant, when capacity is availat, at the Encina Water Pollution Control Facility, $341,600 annually, including associated pumpi costs of $79,500 per year, The Lake Calavera Hi1 Water Reclamation Plant should only be utilized a treatment facility when there is no 0th treatment capacity available or as a part of a se sustaining water reclamation program. D-26 I 0 San Diego, CA 92110 8 1751 Hmcock Sceet r Statement to Mayor & Council -7T1 Oe!zlo~rnenlCtmpsry May2, 1989 I am here tonight in my capacity as Vice President, Re Estate Division of Foote Development Company and as a reside and homeowner in Carlsbad. In the early ~O'S, Foote Developme Company purchased 4 parcels of land consisting of 85 1/2 acre This land was taken through a pre-annexational zone chang annexation to the city, tentative map and ultimately was approvl on 2/5/85 for 248 single-family residences as Carlsbad Tract 84-3 Today this tract is called The Summit. The Calavera Hills Water Reclamation Plant is located ab0 300' east of the eastern edge of the development. I think it's fair say that these homeowners are innocent victims of circumstanc beyond their control. I feel these people are victims because they: Are not served by this plant - not a drop of thr sewage would be treated by this facility - The plant adjacent to them yet not a single Summit homeown will be served by it. These homeowners are victims because no amount research would have led them to the conclusion th this plant would be a problem; 1) 2) In fact as you are hearing this evening the research clear indicates that operation of this plant simply goes against the be interests of Carlsbad in general, and the Northeast quadrant particular. As the developer of The Summit we are frequently asked wl we did not disclose that this sewage treatment plant would or cou be operated. The answer is that as soon as we became aware oft operation we passed this information along to our owners ai F m San Diego, CA 92110 1751 Hmcock e Street e * v buyers. However, the first indication we heard of a problems w; when residents at The Summit called and wanted to know aboi odor and noise easements. These requests for easemei information were directed to the Title Company and as I think \ all know now - there are absolutely no odor or noise easements ov any Summit property. Beveiogmel'ComDany I think we all agree it's difficult to know what another perst is thinking - knowing the city's thought process is even mo challenging because it involves lots of people and the people chan all the time. New councilmembers, new city manager, nf department heads, etc. Given this framework it is near impossible to answer tl question, "Why did the city let homes be built so near a treatme plant if the City knew the plant was going to operate?" I sugge that the city realized in the early 80's that this plant really did n make sense and could not be economically operated. During this time frame Carlsbad Tract 84-35 was approve The mapping process is discretionary - at the discretion of the Cii The City attaches conditions to these approvals and the conditions must be met in order to get building permits. There a literally pages of conditions - some significant and some not significant. A close reading of these conditions of approval disclos no mention of the Calavera Hills Plant. There is frequent mention sewer availability and public improvements, but absolutely . mention of the sewage plant. An attentive reader of these approvals could conclude that t Calavera Hills Plant either did not exist, or, certainly the City ne\ intended to use it. The findings of the planning commission and City Coun include, and I am quoting #4, "The proposed project is compatit with surrounding future land uses since surrounding properties i F 1751 H?acock @ San Diego, 0 CA 92110 Street U designated for residential development on the general plan." Tk ueveioflrentComflany plant property is contiguous to The Summit and therefore, woul logically be considered one of the "surrounding properties whic are designated for residential development." - Item 8 gives the city Land Use and Planning Manager th right to approve the CC&Rs - again no mention of odor or nois easements. Item 16 states that "The Developer shall display a curren Zoning and Land Use Map in the sales office at all times, and/o suitable alternative to the satisfaction of the Land Use Planninj Manager. " Item 17 states that "All sales maps that are distributed 01 made available to the public shall include but not be limited to trails future and existing schools, parks, and streets." These conditions are specific and Foote Development Company complied with each and every one. I feel that if the City had any intention of ever using this facility, the City would have and certainly should have, required notification to all homebuyers in this area. Hindsight is 20/20. Now we need a plan to resolve the current problems. I think we have two different questions to address, The agreement with Vista apparently must be honored and if that's the case so be it. The other question is the operation of the plant. I expect that your study will confirm what the homeowners here tonight are telling you. However, that study won't be available until the fall and these people deserve some help and clarification of this issue now - tonight. I suggest that this council pass a resolution that prior to any permanent operation of this plant the city will proceed as if it were proposing a new facility and do a new EIR and have public hearings, Fax 0 San Diego, CA 92110 e 1751 Hmcock Street - etc. plant did not exist and I think if the city plans on operating thit facility, they should commit to starting from square one and do tht full blown EIR and public hearing process. The city by its acts over the last 7 or 8 years has acted like this - DeveiopmenLGolopa~y I personally am convinced that if this is done, this plant wil never operate. Thank you. Dennis Meehan 3981 Gloria Lane Carlsbad, CA 92008 0 0 h Mayor Lewis and Council Members, My name is Jim Rankin and I live at 9358 Stanford in Carlsbai I would like to read a part of Condition No. 17 which was ap' to the Precise Development Plan for the Calavera Hills Area. This condition, that refers to the treatment plant, should h been included in the Vaster CC&Rs for the Calavera Hills Development. "The applicant shall include in its masttw CC&R's for the entire project and in the subdivision public reports for each phase a detailed description of the facility, its proximity to dwelling units, and the potential for adverse impact." The developer did not include this condition in his CC and the City did not ensure that the condition was included. don't know if this oversight was done by choice or by neglec But a very important disclosure was omitted. This is the same developer that the City granted approximately 2.8 million dollars in future sewer connection fees. Is the City really obligated to honor these sewer crE since the developer neglected to include Condition 17 in his CC&Rs? a m ,. .I XH-C-tL3NZ- The plant itself has many problems. It is not designed accept gravity flow in or out. Sewage has to be pumped in and effluent pumped out at g expense. The plant is noisy and produces objectionable odors eve without the solids operation. In the recent test only 200,000 GPD were processed in a plant designed for 1.2 million GPD. It was objectionable. The odor control is made up of two 55 Gal drums wi extension cords run to a pump spraying ”God only knows” what of chemicals into the air. The noise abatement program consisted of plywood boards partially assembled around the pumps. When the emergency generator was started up for testing vibration cracked the floor of the building. I have prepared adMher economic analysis of the plan which I submit for your consideration. a m . * OPERATING EXPENSES FOR WATER RECLAMATION __-- -- CAPITAL COSTS For wastewater treatment.. ....... ,,.......$1,605,000 For Water Reclamation.............. ....... 1,028,000 --....

This Council can correct past mistakes! e a w Mr. MAYOR, CITY MANAGER 8, COUNCIL PEOPLE, We’re here tonight to discuss the Calavera Hills Sewage Treatment Plant. MY NAME IS BOB HAHNEL. I reside at 2692 Glasgow Drive. am President of HANEC <Homeowner’s Associations in Northeast Carlsbadl. We represent the various homeowner’s association N.E. Carlsbad consisting of approximately 3500 homeowners. main purpose is to coordinate community problems with the ci other entities. I have lived in Calavera Hills for four CLf3 years and w aware of the Sewage Treatment Plant off of Tamarack, but understood that it was all but abandoned, and was just sitti there as the City didn’t know what to do with it since it wa an inconvenient location. In mid-January I had a phone call from the city Engine€ Office requesting time to make a presentation to our group. February 6, 1989 we met with Lloyd Hubbs, Ralph Anderson anc councilman John Mamaux. They explained that a lease agreemE had been signed with the City of Vista for sewage capacity E part of the agreement required that the City of Carlsbad hac run a thirty (301 day test of the Calavera Hills Plant. The asked us to disseminate the information to the homeowners ii area. The planned period of the test was not divulged since 1 wanted to find out if there were any odor or other problems having residents call in during the test. This was to elim: 9 any false complaints as no one would know exactly when the t would start or end. We disseminated the information to the area residents IL are members of HANEC and received mixed responses varying fr mild concern to all out rage. The Summit Development, some whom live within 100 yards of the plant, does not have a homeowner’s association and was not included in the group ac by Hanec. Consequently, these people not only found out at the test when the plant started running, but also found out a sewage plant and a water reclamation plant were one and tl same. HANEC and other area residents are here tonight to expr our concerns about the operation of this plant and ask the council for a commitment to investigate the dismantlement of in the future. The next speaker is Mr. George Smith, a homeowner in tl- Summit Tract. Bob Hahnel........ .WLf-1807 -3 0 0 c Mr. Mayor, City Council --- My name is Allan Van Soest and I live at 4326 Stanford Street. - I will the Calavera Hills Sewage Treatment plant now: 1. Calavera Hills Sewage Treatment Plant Is NOT NEEDED. 2. It Is TOO COSTLY TO OPERATE. 3. 4. The Calavera Hills Sewage Treatment Plant Is Not Even Useful f discuss four Key Reasons why the City of Carlsbad should shut Experts Agree the Plant Should Not Be Activated. Last Resort. 1 0 e 1. Calavera Hills Sewage Treatment Plant Is NOT NEEDED. A. According to a "Master Plan of Sewerage" conducted for City in Dec. "87: The planned Phase IV expansion of the Encina Sewage Treatr Plant will answer Carlsbad's needs to the year 2010 and Pl V will provide capacity beyond 2010. B. Another study completed this month by HYA for the City sl that the City has more than enough capacity to ha1 Carlsbad's needs until Phase IV is completed at Encina wit1 using the costly Calavera Hills plant. C. Calavera Hills plant does not give the City additional se capacity because sewage must be pumped uphill to the Cala Hills plant and pumped back to the Encina plant. The only it could provide additional capacity would be to const effluent and solids disposal lines at a cost in 1987 dol of $1,605,000. D. The sewer system in the area functions very well without Calavera Hills sewage plant as it has done for the past years while the plant stood idle. 2. The Calavera Hills Sewage Treatment Plant Is TOO COSTLY TO OPERATE. A. City council members have told us that the Calavera H plant would be much more expensive to operate than the Er plant. B. It is very expensive to operate. The citizens of Carl should know that according to the Master Sewerage study: "Yearly additional cost to treat at the Calavera Hills F if capacity is available at the Encina Facility is $262,100" In other words, to treat 0.88 million gallons per day fc year would cost $97,400 at Encina but it would cost $355 at Calavera Hills --- a whopping $262,100 difference. CLEARLY, IT IS TOO COSTLY TO OPERATE. 3. Experts Agree the Calavera Hills Plant Should Not Be Activated A. The Wilson Engineering "Master Sewerage Study" stated: "The Lake Calavera Hills Water Reclamation Plant should no1 activated at the present time. The plant should on: utilized if: a) There is a need for reclaimed water. b) If the City of Carlsbad has insufficient capacity at Encina facility. " --- 2 --- V @ 0 B. We have reason to believe that the City Engineer and most, not all, of the City Council would prefer to "mothball" plant. The adopted Council policy has been that the facil should only operate as a last resort wastewater treatm capacity or as a part of an overall water reclamation program . 4. The Calavera Hills Sewage Treatment Plant Is Not Even Useful P Last Resort. A. Calavera Hills could not respond to a water short emergency. Engineers report "there is approximately a year start-up time to put the improvements in place wf would be needed to operate the Lake Calavera Hills W; Reclamation Plant ... and one report states the design % should begin three years before operation ... by that time emergency would be over. We can only conclude from these facts, that the plant should dismantled, the parts sold and the area converted to parking or I space in this heavy residential area. Every year the plant remains, city spends $63,600 to keep it in a state of non-operation. The City has earmarked some $1.6 million in the General Fund construction of effluent and solid disposal lines to Encina and ocean. With the plant dismantled, these funds could be used something worthwhile such as: Parks and recreation Senior citizens The homeless Police or fire protection or even precluding the need for the Finance Department to cons higher sewer and water fees for citizens of Carlsbad. It is time for the City Council to face up to this decision and do they know in their hearts is right---dismantle the plant NOW. --- 3 --- a e I ,i. .. MAYOR LEWIS, Members of the City Council. My name is George Sn live at Lf378 Stanford Street, in Carlsbad, CA. e I have in my hand a petition signed by nearly 500 resid€ living in the several Home Owner Associations surrounding the C Hills Water Treatment Plant (C.H.1 Each of you received a cop! this petition recently. I hope that the number of people whu ' signed this petition will dispel stories that only a handful o disgruntled homeowners oppose the operation of this sewage pla The position of the signatories stated on the petition follows: As property owners in areas surrounding the Water Treat Plant CSewage Plant), we are very distressed with the City's actions in operating the Plant. We would like to be good neighbors and good citizens wi the city, and we understand that the lease agreement with Ui requires a sixty C601 day test of this treatment facility wi thirty C30) days of the test actually processing raw sewage are willing to submit to this procedure without threat of le action, review of environmental impact report, noise abateme complaints or other delaying tactics, providing the Council willing to support our efforts after the test. We want Lake Calavera Hills Water Treatment Plant dismz forever. We do not want raw sewage in our neighborhood. want to continue to enjoy the fresh air of Carlsbad. We do want to live with our doors and windows closed to avoid odox noise. Shutting this plant down is the only way our lifesl and property values can be protected. e e . . I". I Simply stated, our position is that having a sewage plan a residential neighborhood is inappropriate and it should bE dismantled and shut down. I would like to point out, also, that although the plant is called a water reclamation plant, it is actually a sewage treatment plant and that is what it should be called because it was planned for that very purpose, It has been claimed that residents of the various : have no reason for complaint because all the CC&Rs in the Calavera Hills area include a detailed description of the pl and the potential for adverse impact and that all homeowners signed odor and noise easements. THFIT IS NOT THE CASE. Wh the City had an agreement with the developer to include such conditions in all CC&R's, the developer never did so. Rnd, compound the error, the City was negligent in not following catch that those very important disclosure conditions had bE omitted from the CC&R's. Thus, from the very beginning of t Calavera Hills and later developments, no home buyers were E notified of the existence of the sewage plant nor the adver: impact it could have on the area. This lack of notificatioi buyers has continued for the past nine years. Many of us w' live here now would never have bought here if we knew these and that we would be required to sign easements accepting t! conditions. My wife and I learned of the plant's existence last Ha during escrow and inquired about it. First, we went to Cit and were referred to the Engineering and Planning Departmen e 4D L , 1-b There we were told that it was a water treatment plant but t it had not been operated in nine years. Furthermore, that i would require two to three million dollars to bring the plar to operating condition and that there were no plans to raise kind of money nor to operate the plant. We also inquired of developer (Michael Foote Development Company) about the plar They disclaimed any knowledge of the plant’s existence and referred us to the City Council. I followed up on that and Councilman I talked with told me essentially what I had beer by the Engineering and Planning Departments. That the plant not been operated in nine years and that there were no plan: operate it in the future. With those assurances, and only we completed our escrow, only to learn six months later thal plant was going to be tested for possible long term sewage processing. We are bitter about what has happened to us as we woulc have bought a home within 105 yards of a sewage plant if we known it could be an operating plant. As it is, there is a sewage plant in the Calavera Hill! that has cost residents substantial amounts of money in the: purchase contracts that cannot yet operate as intended; thi will cost taxpayers another 2-3 million dollars to make ful. operative; and then will be too small to justify such cost: urge that the council act to dismantle the CH Sewage Plant i close it down. $q5$ 0 ,) i, / ... .. ... ... .. ... .

A couple of months ago various neighbors who inquired .. .. .. * e * We-know about the Vista-Carlsbad agreement requiring thc day test period, in which 30 days would have sewage run1 through u1.e plant, in exchange for leased oapacity at the En( plant from Vista. That agreement provides. that Vista has power to cancel the leased capacity at any time by giving wri. notice. ' Mhen that notice is given, Carlsbad has 180 dm replace the needed capacity in one of 3 ways: 1. Activate the Calavera Hills HZ0 treatment plant 2. Transfer the sewer flows for treatment by the 1 of Oceans ide. 3. Get into another lease with another Encina owne What does not make sense is that the Calavera Hills sewer ca be immediately activated; not even' 180 days under the agree is sufficient to get this plant in operation--instead it's like 2 years according to the previous speakers who researched this area thoroughly, So, the need to run this s test to begin with under the guise-of the Vista agreement baffled those of us who are. just trying to understand 8x8 ... what the City is intending to do with this plant. Since residents were not even informed about the sewer, and in wsre told it was.never%o operate or that it was not a sewer cannot help but wonder why the City Council.has now seen ehe to conduct this 30 day test. We sinberely hope that the tes not a hint of planned permanent use of the plant, Furthermore,. during-the. 30 d~sewage, and a few w . . preceding the aotuel. *'sewer run, the plant was . very . .nc particularly at night. The highest noise was noticed the wee before the raw' sewage was dumped in with some heavy,-loud pun: noises that entire weekend. There was an obvious difference the prior peaceful environment we had prior to February 1 The noise was so bad that I personally called in a compla only to have the newspapers respond with an interview of officials insinuating there was no noise since the plant had even been "running". This was outright deception, because the surrounding neighbors will agree there was a lot of n before the March 21, sewage running. As concerned citizen Carlsbad, one does not appreciate an insinuation that a compl is unfounded with the use of semantics. Most people are pu pretty far before they bother to complain and we had endur couple weeks of disturbing noise before I took time to compla Also, during the 30 day test period there was a SatL morning when many neighbors noticed an odor of raw sewage. it was investigated, it was learned that the two odor mas chemicals both ran out at the same time! This is just withir: the short testing period, where a low capacity of sewage was We rightfully have great concern if the plant were to OPE permanently, at full capacity. Also, the chemicals involved the treatment are a concerned to those who often get breezes. do not want to be subjected to disease or illness. We also contend the 10 year old Environmental Impact RE is outdated and is unacceptable with the substantial change has occurred in the Calavera Hills area. 10 years ago, t were no homes, but rather merely vacant property. The develc who cared only to develop the hundreds of acres in the E e e would have agreed to anything to get his sewer permits app at a time when there was a freeze on sewer permits. developer proposed building his own sewage plant within 180 , of future homes, when ehepe were no homeuwners to 'object. proposal was accepted, but before the plant was complete( Encina plant had sufficient capacity to handle Calavera I sewage, so the Calavera plant was never operated, nor wl completed to be operational. The EIR would not get app today since the area has changed quite dramatically. We fl new EIR must be developed with input from homeowners givei consideration as deserved. Regardless if there were intentional failures to disl the existence of the sewer, or mere neglect occurred, we wil sit back and allow anyone to operate this plant wi. opposition. We believe we have a strong legal leg to stand on due tc abundance of misinformation and deception, and there is a big class of homeowners affected.by the failure to disclasc plant by the city and developers, however, we hope to avoid 1 forced into legal action, which we hope will be unnecessary L all accurate reports are completed regarding this unnecess and downright unhealthy sewer. We urge the City Council to dismantle this sewer.
