DISCUSSION: A District employee was involved in a vehicle accident on December 6, 2011.

The adjuster from Carl Warren & Co., Janice Yardley is recommending rejection of the claim for this reason. A closed session item has been included on this agenda if the Board wishes to discuss the merits of this claim.

Please provide us with a copy of any response to the claimant pursuant to the above. -3- South Tahoe Public Utility District Attn: Nancy Hussman Claimant: CSAA / Masellones D/L: 12/06/2011 May 4, 2012 BASIC FACTS: This is a claim occurring on 12/06/2012 District while District employee Cliff Bartlett was travelling West on Hwy 50 in the number one lane operating a District owned 2006 Ford F450. According to Mr. Bartlett the claimant, Amada Masellones, was travelling in the #2 lane and turned in front of him hitting the right rear corner of the District vehicle. The claimant vehicle is a 1990 Subaru Legacy. Mr. Bartlett states initially he was driving behind the other driver and as soon as Hwy 50 expanded from two lanes to four lanes he merged over and went around her at approximately 35 MPH. The claimant had been travelling at approximately 25 -30 MPH "with her left turn blinker on most of the time ". Masellones "merged over into the far left turn lane and hit my right rear bumper ". Impact to the District vehicle is to the right rear comer. Impact and damages to the claimant vehicle are to the left front corner (to the wheel well) into the center of the front bumper. There are no reported injuries. There is no police report. CLAIMANT The claimant is CSAA as subrogee of Amada Masellones. CSAA has settled their insured's damage claim and issued a check to Massellones in the amount of $1,030.58. They are seeking $1,030.58 plus their insured's $500 deductible for a total of $1,530.58. The vehicle was deemed a total loss with a salvage value of $213.69 which is reflected in the final figures. LIABILITY: As there is no police report this would be a case of `he said, she said' if not for the photos obtained and the areas of impact and damages to each vehicle. It is our opinion that given that the left front and front bumper of the claimant vehicle sustained substantial damage and impact to the District's vehicle is to the right rear corner that it appears that the claimant would have turned into, and hit, the insured vehicle. The argument by CSAA is that our insured driver tried to pass their insured driver on the left. Carl Warren & Co. South Tahoe Public Utility District Attn: Nancy Hussman Claimant: CSAA / Masellones D/L: 12/06/2011 May 4, 2012 Given the discrepancy in the version of the facts as relayed by Ms. Masellones versus the facts as presented by Mr. Bartlett we can only assess and evaluate liability based on the information and photos available to us. RECOMMENDATIONS; It is our recommendation that this claim be denied and that a Notice of Rejection be issued in this matter based on the facts available to us which, in our opinion, support our position that the claimant turned into, and hit, the District vehicle. REMARKS: This concludes our report prepared for the primary purpose of recommending rejection of this matter to the District. Should the District's Board approve rejection of this matter we request that a copy of the Notice of Rejection and Proof of service be provided to us for our records. Please advise if you wish us to draft the Notice of Rejection pursuant to Government Code and a Proof of Service. In the interim, please do not hesitate to give me a call, at (707)732 -6728, should you have any questions or need any additional information. Very Truly Yours, CARL WARREN & CO.

DISCUSSION: During the 2012/13 proposed budget presentation at the March 13, 2012, Board workshop, staff was directed to include a 5% rate increase in the sewer enterprise fund and a 2% rate increase in the water enterprise fund. Proposition 218 notices were issued to all District account holders illustrating the proposed rates for fiscal year 2012/13, including the restructured metered water rates. Ordinance 540 -12 includes the proposed rates as presented in the Proposition 218 notice. The restructured metered water rates were developed through a water cost of service study prepared by HDR Engineering, Inc. in 2011. The base charge has been increased in an effort to offset a greater percentage of the District's fixed costs, while the consumption charge has been reduced. Also, the addition of an ascending two- tiered structure for residential consumption is proposed. Staff will continue to collect and monitor water consumption data and provide future metered and non - metered water rate recommendations. The 5% sewer rate increase will generate approximately $515,000 in fiscal year 2012/13 and will help offset future debt service payments and costs associated with capital improvements of the District. The District is preparing for several large projects over the next three years, including the Diamond Valley Ranch Irrigation project ($5.5M), Fallen Leaf Lake sewer system improvements ($2.4M) and a Luther Pass Pump Station pump and motor upgrade ($1.3M). The District has budgeted to borrow for the DVR project creating an annual debt service payment of approximately $360,000. Paul Hughes May 17,2012 Page 2 The 2% water rate increase will generate approximately $183,000 in fiscal year 2012/13 and will help offset costs associated with capital improvements of the District. The additional rate revenue can be used to increase the in -house meter installation projects scheduled for 2012/13, 2013/14, and 2014/15. SCHEDULE: Rates to be effective July 1, 2012 COSTS: ACCOUNT NO: BUDGETED AMOUNT REMAINING: The 5% sewer rate increase will generate approximately $515,000 in Fiscal Year 2012/13 while the 2% water rate increase will generate approximately $183,000 in Fiscal Year 2012/13.

DISCUSSION: The Fiscal Year 2012/13 proposed budget in the amount of $14,255,873 is fully funded and includes a 2% increase to service charge rates. In addition to the 2% rate increase, the metered rate is being restructured to increase the base charge and reduce the consumptive charge. The increased base charge will provide the District a larger guaranteed revenue stream to cover its fixed costs which account for 80 - 90% of the District's operating budget. The consumptive charge has been lowered in an attempt to create more fairness between metered and non - metered customers. On May 10, 2012, a budget presentation was delivered to the public followed by comments from the audience and Board discussion.

DISCUSSION: This project includes coatings work on the Cold Creek, Gardner Mountain No. 2, and Christmas Valley tanks. The coatings on all tanks were recently assessed and these three tanks had some of the highest priorities for recoating work due to delamination, rusting, and other coating failures. The base bid includes interior work on all three tanks and exterior work on Cold Creek only. The bidders will also submit two bid alternates for exterior coatings work at Gardner No. 2 and Christmas Valley. Staff expects to complete the base bid work within the current budget and will consider adding the bid alternates based on price, budget, and Board approval. The bid documents were prepared by staff and are planning to contract with a coatings inspection provider due to the specialty nature of the inspection work required, and because staff inspectors are fully booked on other District projects currently in progress. On May 8th, ten contractors attended the mandatory pre -bid meeting. Bids will be opened at 2:00 p.m., Tuesday, May 15th. After opening the bids, staff will review the bids in detail for compliance with the specifications. A summary of the bids, along with staff recommendation for award will be distributed prior to, and at the Board meeting.

The lowest bid is based on the base bid amount only as shown on the bid summary with Crosno Construction as the apparent low bidder. Upon further review of the three lowest bids, irregularities were found as summarized on the attached memo from Heidi Baugh. Staff has obtained additional documentation and has determined that the two irregularities in the Crosno Construction bid are minor, and are considered inconsequential and immaterial. Staff recommends' that the Board waive the minor irregularities and award the project to Crosno Construction in the amount of $341,500.00. The District has the option to accept any, all, or none of the alternate bid items as submitted by Crosno Construction.

Inc.: • Bidder's General Information Item 5, did not include broker name. All other information provided for this item. • On the Bid Bond attached to the bid on the back side of the Power of Attorney document, the date was not filled out. I contacted the representative (Andre McClain) from the surety company and asked him if this omission caused the bid bond to be invalid and was assured it did not. I also received this assurance in an email from the surety company. Farr Synthetic Coatings: • Bidder's General Information Item 3, California State Contractors License Board website showed license expiration as "3/31/2013 ", it was written in the bid as "May 2013 ". • Bidder's General Information Item 5, Name, address and phone number of surety company were not provided, only the brokerage information. • Certification by Contractor's Insurance Broker form was filled out incorrectly: instead of listing the insurance company name(s) inthe blank provided, the name of the brokerage company was identified. Had to contact the contractor and get a list of the insurance companies to research. • Certification by Contractor's Insurance Broker form was filled out, but had not been signed or notarized. Advanced Industrial Services Inc.: • Bidder's General Information, Items 1 and 2, contractor's address in bid does not match address on California State Contractor's License site. I was told by contractor's office staff that the address written in the bid is the physical address, the one posted on the State Contractor's License site is their mailing address. • Certification by Contractor's Insurance Broker form was filled out incorrectly: rather than list the insurance companies where requested, "various companies" was typed.

Specifically, he inquired if the District would be interested in participating in an intervention with Heavenly and the other organizations within the A -3 customer class in an effort to ensure that costs associated with other customer classes are not being passed through the A -3 customer class. Heavenly participated in a similar intervention a few years ago when Sierra Pacific Power proposed rate adjustments. Through the services of an outside consultant representing the interveners, the proposed rates by customer class were challenged and ultimately adjusted, saving the A -3 customer group as a whole $274,000 annually. As an A -3 customer, the District benefited from this result. The District is being requested to participate in the current intervention to increase the strength or solidarity of the group, but will benefit from a positive outcome whether it participates in the process or not. The costs associated with the prior intervention were divided two ways. Twenty -five percent of the fee was divided equally among the number on interveners and the remaining 75% was divided based on actual kwh consumption of each intervener as compared to the total consumption of the whole group. The estimated budget for the current intervention is $67,000 - $100,000, of which $16,750 - $25,000 is the estimated District share. Paul Hughes May 17, 2012 Page 2 District staff is seeking Board direction on this matter for the following reasons: (1) The estimated cost is beyond the General Manager authority; (2) District staff is concerned that acting as a participant could potentially damage the relationship with Liberty Energy at a time when the District is seeking a partnership on potential energy creating /saving projects; (3) Similarly, not participating could damage the relationships with several of our largest customers; (4) Not participating could be viewed as if the District is not concerned about the increased utility costs which are ultimately passed on to the rate payer; (5) Staff assumes the District would benefit from a positive result of the intervention with or without participating in the process.
