Scope of Work
Exhibit A
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
A. The objective of the Stormwater Protection Inspection Program (Inspection) is to
verify protection of the municipal storm drain system from non-stormwater
discharges originating from industrial/commercial facilities that have been
identified as being significant contributors to stormwater pollution. It is
recognized that many of the identified pollutants of concern and sources of
significance are currently addressed through other existing inspection programs,
such as Hazardous Materials Storage Inspections. In an effort to streamline
inspection efforts and to relieve undue regulatory burdens to the business
community, Urban Runoff Pollution (URP) inspections will be conducted in
combination with existing Hazardous Materials Storage Inspections. The
purpose of the URP inspection component will be to address discharges that are
not within the current regulatory authority of the Hazardous Material Inspection
Program (or other existing inspection programs, including but not limited to
source control, pretreatment, and POTW inspections, Health and Safety
Inspections, and Hazardous Waste Inspections), but are illegal under local
stormwater ordinances.
B. The Central Fire Protection District (District) shall integrate into and/or modify its
existing fire safety and/or hazardous materials inspection programs to provide
URP inspections for the City of Campbell, Town of Los Gatos, and facilities in
Saratoga that are within the jurisdiction of the District. The information used to
define the URP inspection components, such as types of URP facilities and URP
activities, shall be maintained in a District database. Data reports required for
reporting to the Regional Water Quality Control Board (RWQCB) shall be
provided by the District to the West Valley Clean Water Program (WVCWP)
Manager with a copy to Campbell/Los Gatos/Saratoga representatives in order
to meet National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (NPDES) Permit
reporting obligations.
II. BACKGROUND AND DEFINITIONS
A. URP Facilities: Categorization by a facility's potential for polluting stormwater based
solely upon the nature of business.
Page 10
URP facilities are defined as those facilities whose activities involve the storage,
use or handling of hazardous materials and may be categorized as conducting
one or more of the following activities.
1. Auto Repair - installation, modification, cleaning, repair and/or replacement of
motor vehicle chassis, body, or parts.
2. Cleaners - fabric cleaning.
3. Machine Shop - manufacture, modification or repair of metallic parts.
CFPD URP Inspection Contract
June 6, 2001-Final Draft
STORMWATER SYSTEM PF... fECTION
INSPECTION SERVICES AGREEMENT
4. Paint - application, distribution, packaging or selling.
5. Pesticide - application, distribution, packaging or selling.
6. Photo/Print - developing, processing, or producing.
7. Other URP Facilities- generate hazardous waste, discharge to sanitary sewer or
store underground tanks (i.e., facilities which conduct URP activities but
which have not yet been categorized).
B. URP Activities: Categorization of a facility's potential for pollution based upon
activities actually conducted on -site.
URP Activities are defined as on -site activities that take place at a facility, which
may adversely impact storm, water.
1. GEN - hazardous waste generators.
2. POTW - permitted dischargers to sanitary sewer or Publicly Owned Treatment
Works (POTW).
3. UST - underground storage tank site.
C. Inspection Assignments: The Inspection Assignment is determined by the
complexity and/or compliance of a facility storing, using or handling hazardous
materials. Inspection assignments are not static and can change from year to
year based upon actual field conditions. The following are inspection
assignment characteristics:
1. EC/DFM inspections are conducted by engine company personnel and Deputy
Fire Marshals. These inspections typically involve simple hazardous
materials. These inspections typically do not involve underground storage
tank facilities. These inspections typically include facilities that are in good
compliance standing.
2. HM-2 inspections are conducted by hazardous materials response team
personnel. These inspections typically involve moderate hazardous materials
facilities whose storage amounts exceed 55 gallons (liquids), 500 pounds
(solids) or 200 cubic feet (gases) and underground storage tanks. These
inspections typically include facilities that are in good compliance standing.
3. HMSP inspections are conducted by hazardous materials specialist personnel.
These inspections typically involve more complex hazardous materials
facilities whose storage amounts exceed 55 gallons (liquids), 500 pounds
(solids) or 200 cubic feet (gases) and typically involve underground storage
tank facilitates. Additionally, these inspections typically include facilities that
are upgrading or are experiencing compliance problems.

Notification Policy:
John Spaur, 1913 Los Gatos -Almaden Road, San Jose, CA 95124, noted his lack of notification of the
study session concerning the Town Plaza. He asked that Council establish a policy of notification for
all boards and commissions.
Firefighters Fundraiser:
Art Marshall, 2738 Forbes Ave, representing the Santa Clara County Firefighters, spoke of honoring
the many killed and injured in the New York bombing. He explained how his volunteers raised $36,000
at the Farmers' Market on Sunday. His presentation was uplifting and inspiring.
COUNTY REFERRALS (03.47)
The following people spoke to this issue:
Kathy Ballard, 18051 Idylwild Road, spoke of the dire need of the heliport due to extreme volnrability
to fire hazards in the mountains. The immediate response of the helicopters and the close proximity
of water, equal a far safer environment for the residents of the mountains
Ray Davis, resident, asked that Council address the safety concerns of fire in the hillsides.
Brian Hinman, 37 Broadway, spoke of the confusion concerning this property and the need for
Council's support. He spoke of the need of preservation for his land.
John Ferreira, 507 7th Street, San Juan Bautista, spoke of the firemen who attend these fires. He
explained that they could still address the fires in the mountains from another location but they certainly
would not have been as effective during prior emergencies if they had been located further away.
Council consensus that some strong action will come from the Town addressing the need to retain this
heliport in full working order for any emergency that might arise in Los Gatos and the mountains.
Motion by Mr. Attaway, seconded by Mr. Glickman, that Council accept the report concerning County
Referrals:
