Kenneth C. Gilbert, Director of Public Works
March 27, 1995 (Council Meeting 4 -5 -95)
Consider FY 1995/96 NPDES Assessment
On March 1, 1995, the City Council set April 5, 1995, as the date
of a public hearing to consider the levy of an NPDES assessment to
fund all or a portion of the City's costs to implement the
requirements of the City's NPDES Stormwater Discharge Permit.
BACKGROUND
A. NPDES Permit
In January and March of 1994 the City Council took actions to
approve the submittal (by VCFCD on behalf of the City) of the
Countywide NPDES Stormwater Discharge Permit Application to the
Los Angeles Regional Water Quality Control Board ( LARWQCB) . The
LARWQCB subsequently issued an NPDES Stormwater Discharge Permit
to VCFCD as the Permittee, and to the County of Ventura and all
of the Cities in Ventura County as Co- Permittees.
B. VCFCD NPDES Assessment
The Ventura County Flood Control District (VCFCD) administers a
Benefit Assessment District to fund flood control and related
programs. This assessment district is also used by the VCFCD to
fund the District's NPDES program. Pursuant to the provisions
of the Countywide NPDES Implementation Agreement, all of the
Cities in Ventura County except Moorpark, have been using this
Assessment District to levy an additional "City assessment" to
fund all or a portion of their NPDES program. Each year for the
past three years, the City Council has considered this option
and have elected to not to levy an NPDES assessment.
C. Hearing
Pursuant to the requirements of the Implementation Agreement,
the City Council set April 5, 1995, as the date of a public
hearing to consider the levy of a City NPDES assessment for FY
1995/96. A Notice of this public hearing (Exhibit 'A') was
published and posted in the manner prescribed by law.

DISCUSSION
A. NPDES Program Description
Attached as Exhibit 'B' is a summary of background information
pertaining to the establishment of the federally mandated
National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System ( NPDES).
B. Implementation Requirements
The chart attached as Exhibit 'C' summarizes the various tasks
and efforts to be undertaken by the City over the next few years
in order to comply with the requirements of the City's NPDES
Stormwater Discharge Permit. Included in that chart is an
estimate of the amount of resources anticipated to be required
to complete these tasks.
C. Fiscal Impact
As set forth in Exhibit 'C', City costs for NPDES compliance
efforts over the next few years is summarized as follows:
Funding Source FY 1994/95 FY 1995196 FY 1996/97
General Fund 95,400 189,000 153,000
Gas Tax Fund 82.500 _76.500
Total
177,900 68.100
265,500 221,100
1. Conservative Estimate: Admittedly, it is very difficult to
estimate the amount of staff time which will be required to
accomplish all of the tasks described in Exhibit 'C'. The
number of manhours indicated for each task is a conservative
estimate. The amount of manhours required could be less.
2. Direct and Indirect Costs: A composite hourly rate of $60.00
per hour was used to calculate total program costs. This
hourly rate includes both direct and indirect (overhead)
costs. When applied to the estimated total number of
manhours deemed necessary, this figure yields total annual
program costs which are summarized above. A rate which
includes only direct personnel costs is estimated to be
approximately $30.00 per hour. If this lessor rate is used,
total costs would be approximately one -half (?) those cited
above.
3. Cost Recovery: One of the tasks described in Exhibit 'C' is
the preparation and enactment of additional ordinances
designed to provide the City with the police powers required
to fully implement the requirements of the permit. It is
anticipated that many of those ordinances will include
provisions related to the payment of inspection and /or permit
rpt\npdes26

fees. The full scope of those efforts, as well as the amount
of the revenues anticipated to be generated, are not yet
known. No provision for those possible future revenues have
been made in this report.
4. Resources: As discussed elsewhere in this report, City staff
is working closely with a number of Sub - Committees of the
Stormwater Quality Management Team, on the development of a
broad range of resources which will be made available to each
of the Cities (Co- Permittees) . Whenever possible, staff will
attempt to minimize costs by using these resources.
D. VCFCD Benefit Assessment Program
One benefit of being a Co- Permittee of the County -wide Joint
NPDES Permit is the ability to participate in the VCFCD's
Benefit Assessment Program to recover program costs. Under this
program, flood control costs are spread to benefiting properties
on the basis of the number of Benefit Assessment Units (BAU)
assigned to each property. BAUs are assigned to each property
based on a formula which includes a number of factors, the most
important of which is land use. That formula assigns ONE BAU to
a typical single family lot. Developed commercial and
industrial properties receive a high number of BAUs.
E. City NPDES Assessment
The estimated amount of revenue to the City of Moorpark which
would be generated by a number of alternative City NPDES
assessment amounts is summarized as follows:

An assessment of $28.00 per BAU (single - family residential lot)
would be required to generate revenues sufficient to fully fund
the FY 1995/96 costs summarized above. Approximately one -half
(2) that amount would be required to fund only direct personnel
costs.

G. VCFCD Zone 3 NPDES Assessment
In addition to any City NPDES assessment which the City Council
may consider approving, the City Council is advised that it is
the intent of the Ventura County Flood Control District (VCFCD)
to levy an additional NPDES assessment upon all of the
properties within VCFCD Zone 3, including all of the properties
within the City of Moorpark. The amount assessed last year by
VCFCD for this purpose was $1.50 per BAU. Although the amount
of the VCFCD assessment for FY 1995/96 is not yet known, it is
estimated to be approximately the same as last year's
assessment.
H. NPDES Assessments Upon Properties in Moorpark
In past years the VCFCD levied two NPDES asse
VCFCD -'s NPDES costs incurred within Zone
assessment for costs incurred by the VCFCD on
Permittee. A summary of these assessment for
follows:
• VCFCD NPDES assessment
• City of Moorpark NPDES Assessment
.ssments . One for
3 and a second
behalf of the Co-
FY 1994/95 are as
$4.43
Requested by City 0
by VCFCD for FY 94/95 costs $1.50
by VCFCD for FY 93/94 costs $1.93
Total $7.86
Staff has been advised that commencing with the FY 1995/96
assessment, it is the intent of the VCFCD to include all costs
allocatable to each Co- Permittee in the amount assessed by the
VCFCD. Only those costs requested to be levied by a City will
appear as a City NPDES assessment.
I. VCFCD Requirements
The following is a summary of the steps to be followed when
requesting VCFCD to levy an NPDES assessment:
1. VCFCD Public Hearing: The levy of an annual Flood Control
Assessment will be considered at a public hearing before the
Ventura County Board of Supervisors (Board of Directors for
the Ventura County Flood Control District) in June.
2. City Public Hearing: The Implementation Agreement requires
any Co- permittee wishing to levy an NPDES assessment via the
VCFCD's Benefit Assessment District to also conduct a public
hearing on the matter. Notification for said hearing shall
be published in a local newspaper. Notice need not be mailed
to each property owner.

J. Maximum Assessment
Staff has been advised by the VCFCD staff that it would be their
intent to recommend to the Board of Supervisors that the maximum
municipal assessment not exceed $11.00 per BAU, an amount
consistent with the amounts levied by Co- Permitees in past
years. It is their view that a dramatic increase in the amount
of the composite assessment levied by the VCFCD could jeopardize
the entire Flood Control Benefit Assessment Program.
K. Recommended Assessment
It. is recommended that the City Council approve an NPDES
assessment for FY 1995/96 in the amount of $5.00 per BAU. This
amount is consistent with the amounts levied by other City's in
past years for these purposes. A $5.00 per BAU assessment will
generate approximately $47,000 in revenue for this program. At
the $30 per hour ( direct cost only) rate, this amount would fund
approximately 0.75 man years of staff time. As shown on page 5
of Exhibit 'C', staff time funded by the General Fund is
approximately 1.5 man years'. Additional staff time is shown to
be funded by the Gas Tax fund. It would be the intent of staff
to limit efforts not eligible to be funded by the Gas Tax fund
to .75 man years.
L. Summary
A summary of alternative assessment amounts discussed in this
report are listed as follows:
• To fully fund all direct and indirect costs: $28.00
• To fully fund direct cost only: $14.00
• Maximum amount recommended by V('-FC[): $11.00
• Staff recommended amount: $5.00
RECOPMNDED ACTION
Staff recommends that the City Council set the amount of the City's
NPDES assessment for FY 1995/96 at $5„00 per BAU.
' $189,000/$60/hr = 3150 hrs; 3150 hrs /2080 manhours /yr = 1.5

Exhibit 'A'
NOTICE OF PUBLIC HEARING
NOTICE IS HEREBY GIVEN that a public hearing will be held by the City Council of
the City of Moorpark on April 5, 1995, beginning at the hour of 7:00 p.m. in the
Council Chambers in the City Hall of said City. Located at 799 Moorpark Avenue,
California, 93021, for the purpose of considering the subject item.
Sub ect: Consider the Levy of an Assessment to Fund Stormwater Quality Management
Efforts Mandated by the National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System
(NPDES)
Federally Mandated Program: The United States Environmental Protection Agency (EPA)
has mandated that local agencies are to undertake Stormwater Management Efforts
designed to improve the quality of stormwater runoff into the rivers and streams of
the nation. THE FEDERAL REQUIREMENT THAT LOCAL GOVERNMENTS IMPLEMENT AND ADMINISTER
THIS PROGRAM IS NOT OFF -SET BY ANY FEDERAL FUNDING. THESE FEDERAL REGULATIONS ARE,
THEREFOR, AN UNFUNDED FEDERAL MANDATE, REQUIRED BY FEDERAL LAW. The implementation
and administration of these programs will be an on -going obligation of all local
governments. Program requirements consist of a number of elements designed to
identify, reduce and /or remove sources of pollution from storm drains, streams, rivers
and oceans.
VCFCD NPDES Assessment: Several years ago the Ventura County Flood Control District
(VCFCD) established a Benefit Assessment District to fund flood control activities.
Annually, VCFCD levies an assessment on the properties within certain zones to fund
these expenses. Included in those assessments is an amount for NPDES related costs.
The estimated amount of the FY 1995/96 VCFCD NPDES assessments to be levied upon
properties within the City of Moorpark is $5.00 per Benefit Assessment Unit (BAU).
Be advised that a single family residential dwelling unit is assigned one (1) BAU,
with other land uses assigned BAUs on a relative basis.
City of Moorpark NPDES Assessment: The City Council of the City of Moorpark is
considering requesting that the VCFCD add to the NPDES assessment for Fiscal Year
1995/96 an additional amount deemed necessary to fund City costs to implement the
requirements of the federal NPDES program. The amount of the additional City NPDES
assessment which the City Council will be considering at the subject public hearing
is $28.00 per BAU. If approved, the combined total NPDES assessment upon properties
within the City of Moorpark would be approximately $33.00 per BAU.

Exhibit 'B': NPDES Background Information
Page 1
A. Establishment of the Program
1. NPDES: The Federal Clean Water Act was amended in 1987 to
require the Federal Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) to
establish regulations for the issuance of permits for storm
water discharge. These regulations established the National
Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (NPDES) which sets
forth policies, regulations and procedures for the issuance
of storm water discharge permits. The administration of this
Federal program has been delegated to the California Regional
Water Quality Control Board ( CRWQCB) . The NPDES program
applies to both private organizations and public agencies.
2. Joint Permit: The NPDES requires every public agency in the
country to obtain a permit. The CRWQCB requires payment of
a $50,000 fee for each NPDES permit issued. In order to
reduce costs and streamline the administrative process, it is
common for agencies to coordinate their efforts and apply for
a Joint Permit.
3. Implementation Agreement: In April of 1992, the City Council
approved an Agreement between the City of Moorpark, all of
the other cities in the County, the County of Ventura and the
Ventura County Flood Control District. This Agreement set
forth policies and guidelines to be followed by all of the
co- permittees in pursuing the joint efforts required to apply
for the County -wide NPDES permit and to implement the
requirements of the Permit.
4. Ventura County Storm Water Task Force: Over the past three
years, representatives from all of the cities in Ventura
County have been meeting regularly as the Ventura County
Storm Water Task Force and working on efforts required to
prepare the County -wide Permit Application. The City of
Moorpark representative on this Task Force has been the
Director of Public Works.
5. Ventura County Flood Control District ( VCFCD): The
Implementation Agreement designated VCFCD as the Lead Agency
in coordinating the permit application process. As such,
VCFCD chaired the Task Force. VCFCD retained the services of
a consultant, Camp, Dresser & McKee, Inc. (CDM) , to assist in
the preparation of the permit application.
B. City Efforts

00690
Exhibit 'B': NPDES Background Information
Page 2
Associates to meet these obligations are a Master Drainage
Study and the development of a Storm Water Management
Program.
2. Master Drainage Study: One of the documents required to be
included in the NPDES permit application is a Storm Drain
Atlas of the entire City. This atlas is one of the elements
of the Master Drainage Study. This study also includes
information pertaining to topography, watershed basins,
hydrology, existing storm drain alignments and sizes and
projected future storm drain needs for the entire City. This
document will serve as a useful resource for both the
management of existing storm drain facilities and for the
future development of vacant properties. It is anticipated
that this document will be presented to the City Council for
approval in the Spring of 1995.
3. Storm Water Management Program: The City's consultant
developed much of the background information pertaining to
the City of Moorpark which was included in Sections 1, 2 & 3
of the permit application.
4. Implementation Efforts: Each local agency is also required
to undertake and administer a number of programs as required
by the permit.
5. Compliance Reports: One of the requirements of the program
is the submittal by each Co- Permittee of an annual compliance
report documenting each agencies progress in implementing the
requirements of the permit.
C. VCFCD Efforts
1. Storm Water Monitoring: On behalf of all of the Co-
Permittees, VCFCD has installed and is managing a number of
storm water monitoring stations a key locations throughout
the County. These stations automatically take water samples
during storm events. The samples are later analyzed to
determine the components and constituents of the storm water
runoff. The locations of the monitoring stations were
selected to provide statistics which will be considered to be
representative of quality of storm water County -wide.
2. Permit Application: The VCFCD managed the Consultant (CDM)
retained to compile data and prepare the information included
in the Permit Application.
D. Storm Water Task Force Efforts
1. Permit Application: The primary mission of the Storm Water
Task Force was to direct the efforts of the consultant (CDM)
retained by VCFCD to develop the Storm Water Permit
Application. The focus of that effort was to develop an
rpt \npdes26 00091
Exhibit 'B': NPDES Background Information
Page 3
application which adequately meets the requirements of the
NPDES program, but to do so in a manner which kept costs
under control. It is the view of staff that this end was
accomplished.
2. Management Committee: The Management Committee is comprised
of one or more individuals from each local agency and the
VCFCD. This Committee is responsible for coordinating the
various efforts required to manage the program.
3. Best Management Practices (BMP): The approved NPDES permit
recognizes that the most cost effective way of improving
storm water quality is not through extensive analysis,
testing and treatment, but through the development and
implementation different ways of doing things. These
improved methods cover a broad spectrum of activities
including planning, construction, maintenance and operations.
These "improved ways of doing" things are generally referred
to as Best Management Practices or BMPs. The Management
Committee, through its Sub - Committees has and will continue
to develop all necessary BMPs.
4. Sub - Committees: A number of sub - Committees have been formed
to develop and implement specific program requirements in
specific areas. A list of those sub - committees, along with
a brief descriptions of duties, is as follows:
• Public Outreach: Development of Public Information
resources.
• Construction: Development of standards and requirements
for construction sites to prevent siltation and related
stormwater quality problems.
• Planning & Land Development: Review and revise General
Plans, zoning requirements, municipal ordinances and
development standards necessary to provide adequate
municipal police powers to require land development
projects to meet program objectives.
• Public Infrastructure: Development of a number of Best
Management Practices (BMP) pertaining to the maintenance
and management of streets, storm drains and public
facilities.
• Business Outreach / Illicit Discharge Program:
Development of a number of programs "targeted" toward
specific businesses (gas stations, restaurants, etc.).
Also development of the parameters of an inspection
program aimed at preventing illicit discharge of
pollutants into storm drains, etc.
