2. Review and discussion of the content, operations and policies for City's new website.
Information Technology Director Gordon Peterson and Communications Manager Tina Ray
presented the report and reviewed a PowerPoint Presentation (on file in the Office of the City
Clerk).
Mr. Peterson gave an overview of the recent Information Technology enhancements that have
taken place within the City. He explained that software standardization has occurred to
increase staff efficiencies and improve access to information.
In response to an inquiry from Council Member Hall, Mr. Peterson explained that the City uses
an outside agency for routine technology support.
In response to an inquiry from Mayor Lewis, Assistant City Attorney Edmonson confirmed that
many documents received in e-mail are subject to disclosure under the Public Records Act.
He further explained that documents that are Attorney/Client communications typically are not
subject to disclosure under the Public Records Act.
Mayor Lewis confirmed with staff that once an employee no longer works for the City, they
cannot access the City's network.
Ms. Ray explained that the City's new website is scheduled to be operational by the end of
summer. She further explained that the new website will have features such as E-Zoning, that
will allow citizens to look up information relating to the zoning on a particular property within
the city.
in response to Mayor Lewis, Ms. Ray confirmed that information such as assessed property
value will also be available.
Ms. Ray also stated that the website will include an on-line utility account and payment feature.
In response to Council, Ms. Ray confirmed that the website will have the ability to conduct
citizen surveys; however, that at this time on-line surveys are not considered statistically
viable.
Mayor Lewis asked if any individual from the public can request to be placed on the
Community Access Channel.
Ms. Ray stated that a policy is in place that allows government representatives only. She
further explained that the Council as a whole could provide information regarding local issues
using the channel.
Council Member Hall confirmed that the City's website would contain links to tourist attractions
and outside organizations such as the County Water Authority, North County Transit District
and SANDAG.

In response to Council, City Manager Lisa Hildabrand stated that staff is establishing
guidelines for external website linking.
Council discussion ensued regarding the various information that will be available to the
citizens via the improved website.
The Mayor called a brief recess for lunch at 11:57 a.m. Council resumed the Workshop at
12:06 p.m.
3. Presentation, review and discussion of traffic management in the City of Carlsbad.
City Engineer Bob Johnson and Traffic Signal Engineer Doug Bilse presented the report and
reviewed a PowerPoint Presentation (on file in the Office of the City Clerk).
Mr. Johnson explained that coordinating the city's traffic signals will result in the following:
• Shorter traffic signal cycle length
• Increased traffic progression on city streets in all directions
• Reduced traffic delays
Mr. Johnson further explained that Carlsbad currently has conditions such as non-uniform
intersection spacing, varying street widths and steep grades that contribute to the lack of signal
coordination within the City.
In response to an inquiry from Mayor Lewis, Mr. Johnson confirmed that travel times on
Palomar Airport Road have improved; however, the travel times on El Camino Real are not
improving due to ongoing construction areas on the north/south corridor.
Mr. Bilse explained that staff currently responds to malfunctioning signal complaints by
gathering as much data as possible from the caller and then visiting the site of the complaint to
try to identify the cause of the reported problem.
Mr. Bilse stated that the following measures can be taken to reduce traffic signal related
complaints:
• Focus on critical intersections
• Continue road widening projects
• Distribute traffic evenly
• Utilize adaptive traffic signals
In response to Council, Mr. Bilse explained that adaptive traffic signals allow main road signal
detectors to measure traffic flow and timing plans can be established on an hourly basis and
can also adapt to daily/seasonal changes in traffic flow.
Mr. Bilse further explained that to implement adaptive traffic coordinated timing the City will
need a Traffic Management Center and an Advanced Traffic Management System. He stated
that the following are benefits of a Traffic Management Center and an Advanced Traffic
Management System:
• Staff can monitor traffic conditions from office
• Staff can receive automated alerts regarding signal equipment malfunctions
• Police can utilize intersection surveillance
• Public can have limited access to traffic video streams over the internet
May 20, 2009 Carlsbad City Council Workshop Page 4
In conclusion, Mr. Bilse explained that to implement the use of adaptive traffic signals,
communication links would need to be established between the traffic signals through fiber
optics or wireless technology. He further explained that wireless technology would be the least
expensive alternative; however, fiber optic would be a more reliable communication method.
In response to an inquiry from Mayor Lewis, City Manager Hildabrand stated that staff does not
have a cost estimate for the project at this time.
Council discussion ensued regarding the possibility of public safety personnel utilizing the
video capability at traffic signal locations to assist with traffic accident review.
City Manager Hildabrand commented that a plan could be developed addressing the benefits
of the proposed technology on various departments including public safety.
4. Discussion of Council efficiency and effectiveness including impact of regional
assignments with regard to contact with other Council members, decision and
policymaking, serving the community and effective methods of feedback.
There was no discussion on this item.
5. City Manager review of goal and major project tracking report and update discussion
of Council goal setting process and discussion of capacity and effectiveness in the
delivery of City processes and services.
City Manager Lisa Hildabrand distributed the Athena Top Priority List dated 5/19/09 (on file in
the Office of the City Clerk).
In response to an inquiry from Council Member Hall, Community Development Director Sandra
Holder explained that the Housing Element will be brought forward following Planning
Commission Review in early August.
6. Discussion of feedback, communications or correspondence on issues for the good
of the community, including directions to the City Manager or City Attorney, as
appropriate, for the scheduling of items for future agendas, workshops or study
sessions.

Attention: Water Planning Committee
Summary of findings of the Camp Pendleton Seawater Desalination Project Feasibility
Study (Information)
Purpose
This report summarizes the findings and results from the Camp Pendleton Seawater Desalination
Project Feasibility Study (Study).
Background
In November 2005, following up on the recommendations from a pre-feasibility analysis of
seawater desalination opportunities in the San Onofre area, the Water Authority initiated a
feasibility-level study on the development of a regional seawater desalination project near the
San Onofre Nuclear Generating Station (SONGS). Shortly after the study kicked-off, Southern
California Edison (SCE) raised concerns regarding the project. SCE's primary objection was
that the presence and operation of a future desalination facility near SONGS, using the
abandoned Unit 1 ocean intake and discharge tunnels, would complicate the operation of the
nuclear power plant and hinder future power plant regulatory compliance. SCE's opposition to
the project shifted the focus of the feasibility study to alternative locations near the southwest
corner of the Marine Corps Base Camp Pendleton (Camp Pendleton), adjacent to the mouth of
the Santa Margarita River.
In contrast with the SONGS location, the alternative Camp Pendleton locations do not have
existing infrastructure; prompting a need to re-scope the feasibility study to analyze a wide range
of open ocean and subsurface intake options, as well as new outfall options for plant discharges.
Over the past year, Water Authority and Camp Pendleton staff worked collaboratively to
identify, evaluate, and screen eight potential facility sites. In December 2008, Camp Pendleton
authorized two sites for further evaluation. The $825,000 study cost is being funded by the
Water Authority, with State and Federal grants accounting for 69 percent of the study cost.
Discussion
In March 2009, the Water Authority completed a draft feasibility study for a 50 to 150 million
gallons per day (56,000 - 168,000 acre-feet per year) seawater desalination project on Camp
Pendleton focusing on two possible locations in the southwest corner of the base near the mouth
of the Santa Margarita River. The draft study provides a feasibility-level analysis of new
facilities, environmental and permitting requirements, cost estimates and project implementation
issues associated with the two sites approved for study by Camp Pendleton. The option to
construct a natural gas cogeneration power plant is included in the feasibility study.
Locating a desalination plant on Camp Pendleton not only benefits the Water Authority by
providing a drought-proof and diversified water supply, the project could provide potential
benefits to Camp Pendleton. Specifically, the desalination project could increase water supply
Water Planning Committee

reliability and improve the quality of water supplied to the base should desalinated water blend
with Camp Pendleton's well water supplies. Further, the new ocean outfall serving the
desalination plant could provide a wastewater disposal option for Camp Pendleton, and a
proposed cogeneration plant could be used to provide emergency power to the base.
Facility Requirements
The two sites authorized for study by Camp Pendleton are located near the Santa Margarita ^
River, adjacent to Interstate 5 and in the southwest corner of the base. Both sites have adequate
acreage (26 - 30 acres) to accommodate treatment facilities sized up to 150 million gallons per
day (MGD). Initial site development would likely entail construction of a 50 or 100 MOD
reverse osmosis seawater desalination plant, with subsequent expansions at 50 MGD increments
to a maximum capacity of 150 MGD. In addition to the reverse osmosis membranes as the
preferred desalination technology, other key components of the treatment process include pre-
treatment to prevent membrane fouling, chemical feeds to increase pre-treatment and membrane
efficiencies, post-treatment processes to condition the treated water to resemble existing potable
water supplies, and energy recovery systems to assist in reducing energy costs. Power to operate
the desalination plant would come from either an off-site transmission corridor on Camp
Pendleton or be generated on-site.
Feedwater for the desalination plant would be seawater drawn through a dedicated intake facility.
For the location and treatment plant sizes under consideration, the seawater intake options
include an open ocean intake facility using wedge wire screens to filter debris and aquatic
organisms, seabed infiltration galleries that use the seabed as a natural sand filter, or beach slant
wells that also use subsurface sands as a natural filter. Depending on the type of intake facility
and physiography of the ocean environment, a deep subsurface tunnel would be needed to
convey the feedwater to the desalination plant.
The primary byproduct of the desalination treatment process is concentrate (also known as brine)
that has a salinity about twice that of normal seawater. Concentrate would need to be discharged
back to the ocean through a new offshore outfall, constructed with both seabed pipelines and
outfall tunnel sections. The outfall would include a diffuser system to achieve salinity dilution
requirements. The offshore outfall could also be used by Camp Pendleton to discharge treated
wastewater effluent from the South Region Tertiary Treatment Plant, as well as concentrate fronv
the proposed Santa Margarita River Conjunctive Use Project being developed by Camp i^
Pendleton and the Fallbrook Public Utility District.
Product water from the desalination plant would be delivered to aqueduct facilities in the vicinity
of the Water Authority's Twin Oaks Water Treatment Plant. A 72-inch diameter pipeline, /./
approximately 13 to 19-miles in length (depending on configuration), along with two high lift
pumping plants, would be constructed to connect the desalination plant to the Second Aqueduct
pipelines.
Environmental and Permitting
Development of the proposed desalination project would require a significant number of permits,
approvals, and consultations with various Federal, State, and local regulatory agencies, AS well as
Water Planning Committee
May 7, 2009
Page 3 of3
preparation of environmental documents compliant with the California Environmental Quality
Act (CEQA) and the National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA). Some of the agencies
requiring regulatory approvals include Camp Pendleton, U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, U.S.
Fish and Wildlife Service, State Water Resources Control Board, California Costal Commission,
California Department of Fish and Game, and California Department of Health Services. The
environmental and permitting process will require early consensus building with key
stakeholders and the upfront preparation of technical studies and reports that evaluate alternative
sites and intake/discharge options and their impacts to marine, coastal, and inland habitats.
Project Costs
Feasibility-level capital cost estimates are still being refined. Estimated capital costs range from
$1.25 billion for an initial 50 MOD (56,000 acre-feet per year) project to $1.91 billion for a 100
MOD (112,000 acre-feet per year) project. These estimates include the costs for installing buried
infrastructure sized for the ultimate capacity of 150 MOD. These costs are also comparable to
similar large-scale stand-alone reverse osmosis desalination projects currently being constructed
throughout the world.
Facility capital costs are roughly allocated as follows:
• Intake and Discharge Facilities 15%
• Treatment Facilities 57%
• Conveyance Facilities 28%
A range of capital and operating costs will be presented at the May 14, 2009 Special Meeting of <
the Water Planning Committee.
Next Steps for Project Development
Following completion of the feasibility study, staff will, as part of the FY2010/2011 budget
approval process, present for the Board's consideration a new Capital Improvement Program
project that would fund continued project planning, including preparing various technical studies
and the preparation of an Environmental Impact Report/Environmental Impact Statement
(EIR/EIS). A critical step in moving forward with further project planning is the development of
an agreement between Camp Pendleton and the Water Authority to secure access to the base to
conduct further geophysical investigations (i.e., offshore investigations and biological surveys)
and studies, provide access to Camp Pendleton data on environmental resources and
infrastructure, and define the roles and responsibilities of each party in the preparation of a
combined EIS/EIR for the project.
Should the Board decide to fund this continued planning effort, staff would immediately pursue
the agreement with Camp Pendleton, followed by initiation of the technical studies about mid-
2009. Based on this schedule, staff would expect to initiate preparation of the environmental
document (EIR/EIS) around mid-2010. It is anticipated that it will take approximately 2 years to
complete the environmental documentation process.

Typical Complaints About Traffic Signals
.Maintenance=FixingSignal Equipment
.Traffic Engineering=Signal Timing Plans ::.::....
.Examples:
-FaultyVehicleDetection/Signal"Hang-UpJJ
-Faulty/Broken Traffic Signal Equipment
Gridlock (Can't Get Through Intersection On One Green Indication)
-Long Queues:Can't Get Into Left-turn Pocket
-LongPedestrian CrossingTime
.Focus Has Been On Fixing Peak Traffic At Critical Intersections
.Now Complaints On Off-Peak Traffic and Non-Critical Intersections
Reducing Traffic Complaints
How To Get To Ideal Conditions
1.Focus On Critical Intersection
2.Make Improvements To Critical Movements
(e.g.,Widening Projects,Adding Dual Left-
turn Lanes,etc.)
3.Distribute Traffic Evenly (e.g.,College Blvd.
And Poinsettia Lane Extensions)-
4.Adapt,ive Traffic Signals
Operation Of Traffic SignaIs
.Running "FREE":Stop And Go
-All Detectors Used
-Good For Short Trips
-Green Lights Not Synchronized
-Very Efficient-No "Surplus/1 Time
.Running Coordinated
-Mainline Detectors Turned Off
-Good For Long Trips
-Green Lights Synchronized To Maximize Mainline Traffic
Flow Through Critical Intersection During Peak is-Min.
-Introduces "Surplus/1 Time (e.g.,Unused Pedestrian Time)
-One Plan For Each Period:A.M.Peak,P.M.Peak,Off Peak
3 Types Of Coordination I~!~
l ,I.I
.Fixed Time Grid
-No Detectors Used On Any Approaches
-All Movements Have "Surplus"Time
-Typically Used In Downtown Grids (S.F.}L.A.}S.D.)
.Time-Based
-Detectors Used On Side Street Only
-"SurplusJJTime GivenToMainline ToServe Platoons
Currently Used On:ECR}PAR}RSF}CVD}Cannon
.TrafficAdaptive Signals
-Mainline Detectors Used To Measure Traffic Flow
-"SurplusJJTime Minimized By Hourly Changes To Timing Plans
-Timing Plans Adapt To Daily/Seasonal Changes in Traffic Flow

.Air Emissions Reduced By 10%
What Is Needed For Traffic Adaptive
Coordinated Timing
.Traffic Management Center (TMC)
-Staff Can Monitor Traffic Conditions In The Office
-Police Can Have Road Surveillance
-Public Can Have limited Access To Traffic Video
Streams Over The Internet
.Advanced Traffic Management System (ATMS)
-Manages SignalCoordination Plans
-Automated Alerts of Signal Equipment Malfunctions
2008/2009 Management Goals
.Traffic Management Center (TMC)Strategic Plan
-Identify TMC location
-Identify Communication links Between Faraday
Building,Public Works Maintenance Yard,
Centralized Timing System...I ....I .I .I I .
-Prepare Cost Estimates
I .......I I .I I ..
2008/2009 Management Goals
.Advanced Traffic Management System (ATMS)
Strategic Plan
-Prepare ATMS Strategic Plan Compatible With
TMC
-Identify Communications Backbone (Cop'per,Fiber,
Wireless,or Combination)
-Prepare Cost Estimates
-Coordinate With City Assets
TMC Implementation
.New Technology Means Small TMC In Faraday Building Is
A Viable Alternative Until Future Public Works Center
Constructed
.Value Limited Without ATMS
