Adopt Resolution No.9 9 - 19 approving finalization of Local Coastal Program Amendment (LCPA) 96-09. ITEM EXPLANATION: On January 28, 1997, the City Council conducted a public hearing regarding Ordinance NS-394 and Local Coastal Program Amendment 96-09 relating to storm water management and discharge control. The Local Coastal Program Amendment was approved by City Council on that date. A second public hearing was conducted on February 4, 1997, at which time the Ordinance was adopted, effective April 6, 1997. The attached modifications to Ordinance NS-394 were proposed by the California Coastal Commission in its approval of Local Coastal Amendment 96-09 on July 8, 1998. The modifications are shown in strikeout/highlight format in Exhibit 6. The amendment mirrors those set out in the Deborah Lee letter to Gary Wayne dated July 20, 1998 (Exhibit 5). The other suggested modifications mentioned have been previously accepted. All of the changes are minor and technical in nature. Coastal Commission staff have verified that the suggested change from “diverted stream flows” to “diverted water flows” in section 15.12.050.B. was a typographical error, so it is not being changed. ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW: The Planning Director has determined that the proposed Municipal Code amendments and finalization of Local Coastal Program amendments are exempt from CEQA (California Environmental Quality Act) pursuant to Section 15061 (b)(3) of the guidelines. FISCAL IMPACT: Accepting the Coastal Commission suggested modifications will not have any City related fiscal impacts. EXHIBITS: 1.

ENG AND DISCHARGE CONTROL RECOMMENDED ACTION: CITY MGR.-=&? Introduce Ordinance No. NS - 39~ amending section 1.08.010 and enacting a new chapter 15.12 relating to storm water management and discharge control. Adopt Resolution No. 9 7 - 3 9 , approving Local Coastal Program Amendment (LCPA) 9609. ITEM EXPLANATION: This item is a follow-up to the Stormwater Status Report presented to the City Council on May 7, 1996. The which was B roposed ordinance is a required element of the City of Cansbad stormwater program iscussed in detail at the May meeting. The purpose and intent of this ordinance is to ensure the future health, safety, and general welfare of the citizens of the City of Cartsbad by prohibiting non-stormwater discharges to the storm water conveyance system (spills, illegal dumping, illicit connections) and reducing pollutants from urban runoff to the maximum extent practicable. The proposed ordinance provides the City with the legal authority to enforce these provisions, sets forth inspection and testing procedures, and creates a framework under which the ordinance may be enforced. Although not required by law, a special mailing was sent to approximately 6300 business owners and commercial property owners to inform them that this ordinance was being considered by the City Council and giving them the opportunity to ask questions and make comments. As of early January, very little response has been generated and the few calls that have been received have been to ask questions. This action also affects stormwater management and discharge control within the Coastal Zone, and also includes a resolution approving a Local Coastal Program Amendment (Exhibit “2”) for all segments of the Coastal Zone. If approved by the City Council, it will be processed before the Coastal Commission. The public review period for the LCPA generated one letter containing comments from San Diego Gas and Electric which was responded to by the City Attorney’s office (see Exhibit “3” and “4). ENVlRONMENTAL REVIEW: The Planning Director has determined that this project is exempt from environmental review because: 1) It IS a Tlator (Sectron 15308 of CE ); an action instituting procedures for the rotection of the environment 2) it satisfies the basic rule (Section 1 061(b)(3) of CEQA) that there !f IS no possibility that the adoption of this ordinance will cause a stgnrficant impact on the environment. FISCAL IMPACT: The proposed ordinance enhances the Cit s abilit to enforce its stormwater program. Enforcement is currently provided by existing staff. i i hould t e City Council find it in the public’s interest to expand the enforcement program in the future, additional funds and resources could be allocated at that time. The amount of additional funding would depend upon the specifics of the desired program. EXHIBITS: 1.

CA 921124150.619 I SS6ZUOO November 1,1996 F’LE No SFH 2 16 City of Carlsbad Planning Department 2075 Las Palmas Drive Carlsbad, CA 92009 Re: PROPOSED LCPA 96 09 STORM - - WAmR ORDINANCE San Diego Gas & Electric Company (SDG&E) is pleased to have the opportunity to provide the City of Carlsbad (City) with its comments regarding the proposed LCPA 96- 09 Storm Water Ordinance. SDG&E is a “Public Utility” within the meaning of Section 216 of the Public Utility Code and Article XII of the California Constitution. As such, SDG&E’s operations, activities and facilities fall within the exclusive regulatory jurisdiction of the California Public Utility Commission (CPUC). While the CPUC shares concurrent regulatory jurisdiction with other state agencies otherwise having jurisdiction over SDG&E activities, the CPUC’s regulatory jurisdiction is exclusive as between it and local government. Section 8 of article XII of the California Constitution expressly prohibits local government from regulating public utilities concerning matters over which the CPUC has regulatory power. The CPUC’s regulatory powers are largely identified in the Public Utility Code, pursuant to Section 701, 761, 762 and 768, the CPUC has exclusive regulatory power over the siting, design, installation, maintenance, repair, replacement, operation and use of SDG&E’s electric power generation, transmission and distribution and its natural gas transmission and distribution systems. Consequently, to the extent that the proposed ordinance will require SDG&E to obtain the City’s approval for any activity or for any development, use, maintenance, repair, replacement, installation, or modification of any public utility facility in, on, under, across, or in the vicinity of a watercourse, storm water conveyance system, or otherwise under the ordinance, the same is prohibited by state law. SDG&E will, of course, conform its activities, operations and facilities to the requirements of applicable federal and state law including, withoutlimitation, the federal Clean Water Act, California Porter-Cologne Water Quality Act, and the regulations promulgated thereunder. stormwater\cbcoment Moreover, SDG&E will notice the City of activities which would otherwise be subject to this proposed ordinance and pursue good faith negotiations with the City to resolve any reasonable, relevant and appropriate concerns of the City. Where resolutions cannot be achieved, the City may avail itself of the complaint procedures set forth in Public Utility Code section 1701 et seq. Specifically, SDG&E advises the City of Carlsbad that the Enclosed Bays and Estuaries Plan was rescinded in 1994, (see page 2, paragraph I). Finally, the definition of “Storm Water”, for purposes of the proposed ordinance should be consistent with the definition provided in the federal NPDES regulations as found under 40 CFR 122.26(b) (13). Also, the ordinance has three paragraphs that seem to be inconsistent with each other, they are the definition of paragraph 15.12.020. M, “Illicit Connection”, paragraph 15.12.050 “Discharge of Pollutants” and paragraph 15.12.070 “Illicit Connections.” They all make reference to illicit connections where one would allow connection if approved by the RWQCB and the City of Carlsbad. Another paragraph states that any connection whether approved or not is prohibited. 1. It is recommended that to make the ordinance clear, the following language should be remove from paragraph 15.12.070 “regardless of whether such connections were made under a permit or other authorization or whether permissible under the law or practice applicable or prevailing at the time of the connection.” In its place the following language should be included “but is subject to the exceptive.provisions of the Municipal Code paragraph 1512.050.” 2. The following should be included as an activity considered not as a source of pollution under paragraph 15.12.050, B., “substructure dewatering.” This type of activity is covered under the State General NPDES Permit CAG90002 Discharge By Utility Companies to Surface Waters. Thank you for the opportunity to comment on the proposed ordinance. If you have any question please feel free to ca!l me at 696-4671. stormwater\cbcoment EXHIBIT 4 RONALD R. BALL CITY ATTORNEY D. RICHARD RUDOLF ASSISTANT CITY Al-iORNEY JANE MOBALDI DEPUTY CITY ATTORNEY Ralph Vasquez Environmental Analyst San Diego Gas & Electric P. 0.

CALIFORNIA 92008-1989 (619) 434-2891 FAX: (619) 434-8367 January 8,1997 JAN 0 8 1997 RE: STORM WATER ORDINANCE AND LCPA Dear Mr. Vasquez: This letter is in response to your November 1,1996 comments on the City’s proposed Storm Water Ordinance and companion Local Coastal Program Amendment, currently scheduled for City Council consideration on January 28, 1997 at 6:00 p.m. in City Council Chambers. The first page of your letter asserts San Diego Gas & Electric Company (SDG&E) exemption from City regulation generally, because of the exclusive regulatory jurisdiction of the California Public Utilities Commission (CPUC). We view the law as providing shared jurisdiction over some issues, and that the application of the Storm Water Ordinance in any particular aspect must be analyzed in light of that shared jurisdiction. Your letter ignores the language in California Constitution Article XI, Section 9 which allows corporations such as SDG&E to establish and operate works for supplying power and heat “...upon conditions and under regulations that the city may prescribe under its organic law.” Additionally, Public Utilities Code section 2902 specifically authorizes municipal corporations such as the City of Carlsbad to retain its “. . . powers of control to supervise and regulate the relationship between a public utility and the general public in matters affecting the health, convenience, and safety of the general public, including matters such as the use and repair of public streets by any public utility, the location of the poles, wires, mains, or conduits of any public utility, on, under, or above any public streets...“. Accordingly, the City believes it does have some shared jurisdiction over SDG&E with the CPUC. Depending on the issue, the dispute resolution/enforcement provisions of the City’s proposed ordinance or Public Utility Code section 1701 et seq. might be applicable. You also point out that the Enclosed Bays and Estuaries Plan was rescinded in 1994, and we have deleted that definition from the ordinance. We agree that the definition of “storm water” should be consistent with the definition in the federal regulations at 40 CFR 122.26(b)(l3). Although the ordinance language is slightly longer than that found in the regulations, we believe it is consistent with the federal regulation definition, and includes helpful explanatory language found in ordinances of other San Diego County cities. Finally, we disagree with your conclusion that the definition of “Illicit Connection” at section 15.12.020.M, and the provisions relating to “Discharge of Pollutants” in section 1512.050 and “Illicit Connections” in 1512.070 seem to be inconsistent with each other. They are not internally inconsistent, because the “illicit connections” provision in section 15.12.070 refers to both illegal hookups (in the sense that they are done without a required permit), and legal hookups through which illegal discharges occur. However, we agree that the provision is confusing, and have added the modifying phrase “except as authorized in section 15.12.050” at the end of section 15.12.070 to make it more clear. We have not modified section 15.12.050.8 to add “substructure dewatering” as you requested, precisely for the reason you state in your letter. That is, that type of activity is covered under the State General NPDES Permit, which is the exception provided by section 15.12.050.A, and therefore is not relevant to the exception found in subsection B. Thank you for your comments on our draft ordinance. We appreciate the input and opportunity to improve and clarify the language to eliminate potential future enforcement problems.

Planning Director City of Carlsbad 2075 Las Palmas Drive Carlsbad, CA 92009-1576 Re: Certification of Carlsbad LCP Amendment #l-98C Dear Mr. Wayne, On July 8, 1998, the California Coastal Commission approved the above amendment which included the "Drive-Thru Restaurants", "Stormwater Management" and "Incidental Outdoor Dining Areas" amendments. In its action, the Commission approved the submittal with suggested modifications; the suggested modifications are attached in their final form for youi review and the City's adoption. Relative to the Stormwater Management amendment, there were technical clarifications adopted that relate to the ordinance's date of effectiveness and citation for the Water Quality Control Plan for Ocean Waters of California as adopted by the State Water Resources Control Board; that all forms of development be subject to the ordinance, including lot splits; that a "hazardous material" be defined as one that may "substantially contribute" to substantial injury; that proof of compliance with a discharge pollutant permit may be required if deemed necessary by the City; and landowners shall be responsible for maintaining that portion of a watercourse that is within their property lines to protect against erosion and degradation of the watercourse. Relative to the Incidental Outdoor Dining Areas amendment, a suggested g: edification was approved that provides that on sites located west of the :* railroad right-of way and outside of the Village Redevelopment Area,.+ "incidental outdoor dining areas" shall be allowed only where the existing * indoor restaurant provides on-site parking in compliance with the parking .- provislons of the certffied local coastal program.- Before the amendment request can become effectively certified, the Executive Director must determine that implementation of the approved amendment will be consistent with the Commission's certification order. This is necessary because the amendment request was certified with suggested modifications. In order for the Executive Director to make this determination, the local government must formally acknowledge receipt of the Commission's resolution of certification, including any terms or suggested modifications; accept and agree to those terms and modifications; and take any formal action which is required to satisfy them, such as rezonings or other ordinance revisions. 63 Gary WayneKarlsbad LCPA l-98C July 16, 1998 Page 2 As soon as the necessary documentation is received in this office, and accepted, the Ex‘ecutive Director will report his/her determination to the Commission at its next regularly scheduled public hearing. If you have any questions about the Commission's action or this final certification procedure, please contact Bill Ponder in this office. Thank you and the other staff members who worked on this planning effort. We remain available to assist you and your staff in any way possible to continue the successful implementation of the local coastal program. Sincerely, &a-& Deborah N. Lee Deputy Director .
