BOARD AGENDA ITEM 4a
TO: Board of Directors
FROM: Mark Seelos, Water Resources Manager
MEETING DATE: April 2, 2026
ITEM – PROJECT NAME: Bakersfield Well Rehabilitation Project
REQUESTED BOARD ACTION: (1) Approve Scope of Work for Best Environmental
Subsurface Sampling Technologies, Inc. to complete arsenic profiling in Bakersfield Well;
and (2) Authorize the General Manager to execute Task Order No. 2 with Best
Environmental Subsurface Sampling Technologies, Inc. in the amount of $32,393.
DISCUSSION: The 2025 Bakersfield Well Rehabilitation Project was completed by Carson
Pump in January 2026. Seventy-five feet of filter sand, placed in 2003 in attempt to
lower arsenic concentrations, were removed to accommodate well cleaning and
redevelopment. A spinner flow profile conducted in 2001 showed modestly higher
arsenic concentrations at the lowermost screened interval (10 ug/L vs 8-9 ug/L). The
lowermost screened interval, extending from 270 feet to 310 feet, accounts for an
estimated 13% of flow in the well.
The filter sand was placed to slow contribution from the bottom screen. However,
removing the screen entirely was only predicted to lower the raw water arsenic
concentration from 8.75 ug/L to 8.56 ug/L, with a loss of 160 gallons per minute of
capacity. Given this negligible benefit and sacrificed capacity, staff made the decision
to remove the filter sand and leave the bottom screened interval exposed. Anticipating
a potential change in arsenic dynamics, staff directed the contractor to proactively
install an access port acceptable for conducting an updated high-resolution flow
profile using modern methods.
Arsenic concentrations have been increasing over time, with individual measurements
occasionally exceeding the MCL of 10 ug/L, but remaining in compliance with both
state and federal regulations. Following the Bakersfield Well Rehabilitation Project,
arsenic concentrations increased from an average of 8.6 ug/L (2025) to 10.35 ug/L.
Transient increases in arsenic concentrations following well rehabilitation and
redevelopment are well documented in literature. It is thought that oxidizing agents
used during these projects can cause oxidative dissolution of mineral deposits

containing arsenic, increasing arsenic mobilization. This is expected to decrease over
time as the well and local aquifer stabilize.
The District recommends contracting with Best Environmental Subsurface Sampling
Technologies, Inc. (BESST, Inc.) to conduct a high-resolution vertical profile of arsenic
concentrations in Bakersfield Well. This work will identify whether there have been
changes in the distribution of arsenic among the contributing screened intervals and
help determine if temporary or permanent well modifications could reduce arsenic
concentrations below 10 ug/L.

BOARD AGENDA ITEM 6a
TO: Board of Directors
FROM: Brendan Cusick, Senior Engineer
MEETING DATE: April 2, 2026
ITEM – PROJECT NAME: Tahoe Keys Sanitary Sewer Rehabilitation Project
REQUESTED BOARD ACTION: (1) Adopt the Plans and Specifications for the Tahoe Keys
Sanitary Sewer Rehabilitation Project per California Government Code 830.6; and (2)
Authorize staff to advertise construction bids for the Tahoe Keys Sanitary Sewer
Rehabilitation Project.
DISCUSSION: Tahoe Keys is a private residential community located in South Lake
Tahoe, El Dorado County, California. The development was constructed in the late
1950’s and 1960’s by dredging native soil from the Truckee River marshlands. The
sanitary sewer system was constructed in multiple phases starting around 1960 and
asbestos cement piping was the standard pipe material for sewer main and lateral
installations. The system is collected at the sewer lift station on the northeast corner of
the Tahoe Keys Boulevard and Venice Drive intersection. The sewage is then sent
through an 18-inch steel sanitary sewer force main and ultimately treated at the
District’s wastewater treatment facility.
In 2018, the District discovered a sinkhole near the intersection of Tahoe Keys Boulevard
and Venice Drive that was caused by a collapsed sanitary sewer. In attempting to
remedy the collapsed sewer, which typically involves excavation and replacement of
the damaged section of pipe, the District was confronted with high groundwater levels
and prohibitively high dewatering costs, to such an extent that the issue was ultimately
resolved by sliplining from the adjacent lift station wet well. This experience prompted
the District to prioritize trenchless rehabilitation of sewer mains in areas like the Tahoe
Keys where the consequence of failure results in extremely high construction costs.
In 2024 and 2025, DOWL (design consultant) conducted a condition assessment of the
sewer mains located along 11 streets within the eastern portion of Tahoe Keys. DOWL
reviewed closed-circuit television video recordings and inspection reports produced
within the last 15 years by the District and evaluated the sanitary sewer system including

location, pipe size and material, and defects. The focus of the evaluations was mainly
on structural defects rather than operations & maintenance (O&M), such as surface
spalling, sulfide corrosion, joint offset, infiltration, and missing aggregate. Generally,
O&M defects can be resolved by routine cleaning to remove roots, break down wall
encrustation, and reduce sediments and grease.
The most common structural defect observed was corrosion due to sulfuric acid
chemical attack, and the other defects identified included pipe sag, spalling, and joint
chip. The shoulder and crown of several sewer mains presented surface spalling and
missing aggregates as noted from inspection reports, which could have been caused
from the chemical attacks. At least 60% of the sewer mains had corrosion issues.
DOWL’s condition assessment identified sewer mains along 8 of the 11 streets as being
most at risk of failure and recommended rehabilitation utilizing Ultraviolet Cured-in-
Place Pipe (UV CIPP). This trenchless technology provides the District with a corrosion
resistant solution to extend the service life of these sewers for another 50 years or longer.
The proposed Project involves lining approximately 7,332 linear feet of 6” pipe, 594
linear feet of 12” pipe, and 614 linear feet of 14” pipe as well as reinstating
approximately 241 customer laterals.
The Engineer’s Cost Estimate for construction is $725,851 and staff plans to advertise for
construction bids for the Project on April 3, 2026. Future Board authorization requests will
include contractor award and professional services for inspection.
Staff recommends the Board:
(1) Adopt the Plans and Specifications for the Tahoe Keys Sanitary Sewer
Rehabilitation Project per California Government Code 830.6; and
(2) Authorize staff to advertise for construction bids for Tahoe Keys Sanitary Sewer
Rehabilitation Project

BOARD AGENDA ITEM 6b
TO: Board of Directors
FROM: Lauren Benefield, Water Conservation Specialist
MEETING DATE: April 2, 2026
ITEM – PROJECT NAME: Ordinance Amending Water Shortage and Drought
Response Standards
REQUESTED BOARD ACTION: Adopt Ordinance No. 597-26, an Ordinance of the South
Tahoe Public Utility District, amending Administrative Code Section 3.4 regarding Water
Shortage and Drought Response Standards.
DISCUSSION: Recent changes to State of California regulations regarding nonfunctional
turf for commercial, industrial and institutional properties require updates to the District’s
Administrative Code to ensure continued compliance. These regulations prohibit the
installation and irrigation of nonfunctional turf on commercial, industrial and institutional
properties and require water agencies to align local codes, policies, and enforcement
mechanisms accordingly. Amending the Administrative Code will clarify the District’s
authority, definitions, and compliance expectations, while ensuring consistency with
state law and reducing the risk of regulatory conflict or enforcement challenges.
This amendment modernizes the Administrative Code and related policies, aligns District
practices with evolving state requirements and available technology, and supports
equitable and efficient water management.
Staff recommends Board adoption of Ordinance No. 597-26 to ensure the District’s
regulatory framework remains current, enforceable, and responsive to compliance
obligations.

ORDINANCE NO. 597-26
AN ORDINANCE OF THE SOUTH TAHOE PUBLIC UTILITY
DISTRICT AMENDING ADMINISTRATIVE CODE SECTION 3.4 REGARDING THE
WATER SHORTAGE AND DROUGHT RESPONSE STANDARDS.
Be it enacted by the Board of Directors of the South Tahoe Public Utility District, County
of El Dorado, State of California, as follows:
SECTION I - POLICY AND PURPOSE
The purpose of this Ordinance is to conserve water resources, minimize cost to the
District and expense to its customers, and follow California State water conservation regulations.
SECTION II – DEFINITIONS
For the purposes of this Ordinance, the terms used herein are defined as follows:
A. The District – The South Tahoe Public Utility District.
B. The Board – The Board of Directors of the South Tahoe Public Utility District.
C. Administrative Code – The compilation and codification of all of the
Administrative, Water and Sewer Ordinances of the District, which establish the
authority and the principles for the decisions of the District, and provide the
public with guidelines applicable to District operations.
D. Bill - is the notice or statement provided to customers, which reflects charges for
water, sewer, and special services provided.
E. CII Water Use - water used by commercial water users, industrial water users, and
institutional water users.
F. Commercial Water User - a water user that provides or distributes a product or
service.
G. Institutional Water User - a water user dedicated to public service. This type of
user includes, among other users, higher education institutions, schools, courts,
churches, hospitals, government facilities, and nonprofit research institutions.
H. Irrigation System - a network of piping designed to distribute water on or towards
plant life to promote growth.
I. Water – Potable - shall mean any water, which, according to recognized
standards, is safe for human consumption.
24087166.1
SECTION III – FINDINGS
The Board of Directors of the South Tahoe Public Utility District, El Dorado County,
State of California, makes the following findings:
1. In 2023, Assembly Bill 1572 (AB 1572) passed prohibiting the use of potable
water to irrigate nonfunctional turf located on commercial, industrial, and institutional properties
(CII). The legislation will replace a temporary nonfunctional turf irrigation ban enacted during
the last drought and will be phased in beginning Jan. 1, 2027.
2. AB 1572 requires public water systems to revise their regulations, ordinances, or
policies to include the requirements of AB 1572. The District aims to pass its ordinance to allow
customers the maximum amount of time to prepare.
3. Enforcement of AB 1572 is required to be handled at the local level by water
agencies. The District will be responsible for ensuring compliance within its jurisdiction and, if
required, will utilize the enforcement outlined in Section 3.4 Water Shortage and Drought
Response Standards.
4. Beyond the prohibition, the law actively promotes and encourages the transition
to "climate-appropriate landscaping." This refers to the cultivation of plants that are naturally
suited to California's arid and semi-arid climate, such as native drought-tolerant species. Such
landscaping significantly reduces water demand and often requires less maintenance,
contributing to long-term sustainability.
SECTION IV – WATER SHORTAGE AND DROUGHT RESPONSE STANDARDS

South Tahoe Public Utility District
Leak Adjustment Policy
Updated 4/2/2026
POLICY STATEMENT
The South Tahoe Public Utility District (“District”) has determined that it is appropriate that
customers not be responsible for the cost of an increased water bill when there is a meter error
or a leak in the plumbing system on the customer’s side of the meter. This policy provides an
opportunity for customers to request adjustments to water use charges when a meter error
occurs or a leak occurs on the customer’s side of the meter. Any customer who is seeking an
adjustment of a water usage charge for a meter error or leak shall be treated in accordance with
this policy.
RULES AND REQUIREMENTS FOR METER ERROR AND WATER LEAK ADJUSTMENTS:
1. Customer’s Responsibility to Monitor, Investigate and Repair Leaks
The customer is responsible for monitoring higher than expected usage as reflected on the
customer’s bill. Higher than expected usage must be investigated by the customer and any
leaks promptly repaired by the customer. A customer who has observed or has actual
knowledge of a leak on the customer’s side of the water meter is required to promptly repair the
leak.
2. Meter Reading Error
If an investigation of a meter and meter records shows that a meter was misread, then the
customer's bill will be revised based on the corrected reading. If there was a failure of the meter
or the meter reading device, a new bill will be issued using an estimated usage based on the
average use during the same billing period during each of the previous two (2) years or any
information that is available on the customer’s account prior to the bill in question.
3. Proper Meter Reading
If an investigation of a meter and meter record establishes that a meter was properly read and
that there was no failure of meter or meter reading device, the customer's bill will remain valid
and payable on the specified due date.
4. Testing of the Customer Meter
If the customer questions the accuracy of the meter, the customer may request that the meter's
accuracy be tested. The customer must pay a meter testing deposit of one hundred dollars
($150.00) for meters of a size of up to and including one and one half inch (1.5”). The District
will remove the meter and test it at the District’s shop or have the meter tested by a third party.
For meters larger in size than one and one half inch (1.5"), the District will engage an outside
consultant to test the meter if the customer agrees to pay for the testing as quoted by the
consultant.
If the meter's accuracy is found to be within the guidelines established for meters by the
American Water Works Association (AWWA), it will be deemed to be accurate. If the meter is
found to be accurate within AWWA guidelines, the customer’s meter testing deposit will not be
refunded. If the meter does not meet AWWA accuracy standards, the District shall refund the
meter testing deposit to the customer, repair or replace the meter, and make an adjustment to
the customer's bill in accordance with the test results.
5. Request for a Leak Adjustment
If a customer wants to request a leak adjustment, they must submit a completed Leak
Adjustment Request Form to the District. The form must be submitted within sixty (60) days of
discovery of the leak, or within sixty (60) days of receiving a bill with water usage during the time
of the leak. The completed form shall be accompanied by a plumber’s receipt for the repairs
performed and/or a receipt for parts. In lieu of receipts, businesses with in-house maintenance
staff may submit a statement signed by the manager who witnessed the repair.
6. Eligibility
In order to be eligible for a leak adjustment, customers must be enrolled in the District’s
WaterSmart water usage monitoring program. Customers who are enrolled but have
unsubscribed from leak alerts are not eligible for leak adjustments. Customer accounts must be
current and in good standing until the leak adjustment request is reviewed and the District has
made a determination regarding the request. Only one adjustment will be allowed every 24
months per account.
7. Leaks Qualifying for Adjustment and Calculation of Billing Adjustment
A leak adjustment request must meet all other requirements of this policy. The District will not
adjust any water bills as a result of faucets or hoses left running, the filling of swimming pools or
hot tubs, pressure washing, watering of lawns and gardens, premises left or abandoned without
reasonable care for the plumbing system, or similar water usages.
8. Calculation of Billing Adjustment
Up to three consecutive bills may be adjusted if the water leak usage occurs over multiple meter
reading periods. The calculation of the proper billing adjustment amount will be based on
average usage during the same billing period in each of the previous two (2) years or any
information that is available on the customer’s account. The adjustment will only include water
usage charges related to the leak. Water base charges will not be adjusted.
9. Requirement of Actual Leak
The District shall not approve any leak adjustment to a customer's water bill unless the
increased water bill is the result of an actual physical leak which has been located, documented
and repaired.
11. Verification
The District reserves the right to verify that leaks have been repaired before approving leak
adjustments.
12. Approval by District Staff for Water Leak Adjustment
All requests for adjustments shall be approved by the District’s Customer Service staff before an
adjustment is credited to a customer’s account.
RECORD KEEPING REQUIREMENTS
The Customer Service Department shall keep a written record of the customer billing
adjustment request and the action taken by the District.
RIGHT TO APPEAL
The District’s Board of Directors hereby authorizes the District's Customer Service staff to
approve adjustment requests, as appropriate, in accordance with the provisions of this policy. If
the customer wishes to appeal the decision of the Customer Service staff, the customer shall be
advised of their right, upon request, to have the billing adjustment request heard and acted upon
by the Board of Directors. If requested by the customer, the customer’s request for a billing
adjustment shall be scheduled for consideration at the next regularly scheduled Board of
Directors meeting.
NOTICE TO ALL CUSTOMERS
All notices, statements, requests and other communications from the District to the customer
shall be deemed sufficient and properly given if in writing and delivered by U.S. mail and/or
email. A customer’s refusal to accept any notice or communication shall be deemed receipt.
MODIFICATION OF THIS POLICY
This Leak Adjustment Policy may be modified only through action taken by a majority of the
District’s Board of Directors.
Water Leak Adjustment Request Form
Leak Adjustment Policy:
• The District will grant no more than one water billing adjustment for water leaks
on the customer side of the water meter per account every 24 months. No leak
adjustment will be granted as a result of faucets or hoses left running, filling of
swimming pools or hot tubs, pressure washing, watering of lawns and gardens,
premises left or abandoned without reasonable care for the plumbing system, or
similar water usages.
• A Water Leak Adjustment Request Form must be submitted to the Customer
Service Department within sixty (60) days of the customer's receipt of the billing
that covers the time period during which the water leak occurred.

POLICY STATEMENT
The South Tahoe Public Utility District (“District”) has determined that it is appropriate
that customers not be responsible for the cost of an increased water bill when there is a
meter error or a leak in the plumbing system on the customer’s side of the meter. This
policy provides an opportunity for customers to request adjustments to water use
charges when a meter error occurs or a leak occurs on the customer’s side of the meter.
Any customer who is seeking an adjustment of a water usage charge for a meter error or
leak shall be treated in accordance with this policy.
RULE AND REQUIREMENTS FOR METER ERROR AND WATER LEAK
ADJUSTMENTS:
1. Customer’s Responsibility to Monitor, Investigate and Repair Leaks
The customer is responsible for monitoring higher than expected usage as reflected on
the customer’s bill. Higher than expected usage must be investigated by the customer
and any leaks promptly repaired by the customer. A customer who has observed or has
actual knowledge of a leak on the customer’s side of the water meter is required to
promptly repair the leak.
2. Meter Reading Error
If an investigation of a meter and meter records shows that a meter was misread, then
the customer's bill will be revised based on the corrected reading. If there was a failure
of the meter or the meter reading device, a new bill will be issued using an estimated
usage based on the average use during the same billing period during each of the
previous two (2) years or any information that is available on the customer’s account
prior to the bill in question.
3. Proper Meter Reading
If an investigation of a meter and meter record establishes that a meter was properly
read and that there was no failure of meter or meter reading device, the customer's bill
will remain valid and payable on the specified due date.
4. Testing of the Customer Meter
If the customer questions the accuracy of the meter, the customer may request that the
meter's accuracy be tested. The customer must pay a meter testing deposit of one
hundred dollars ($150.00) for meters of a size of up to and including one and one half
inch (1.5”). The District will remove the meter and test it at the District’s shop or have
the meter tested by a third party. For meters larger in size than one and one half inch
(1.5"), the District will engage an outside consultant to test the meter if the customer
agrees to pay for the testing as quoted by the consultant.
If the meter's accuracy is found to be within the guidelines established for meters by the
American Water Works Association (AWWA), it will be deemed to be accurate. If the
meter is found to be accurate within AWWA guidelines, the customer’s meter testing
deposit will not be refunded. If the meter does not meet AWWA accuracy standards, the
District shall refund the meter testing deposit to the customer, repair or replace the
meter, and make an adjustment to the customer's bill in accordance with the test results.
5. Request for a Leak Adjustment
- 2 -
If a customer wants to request a leak adjustment, they must submit a completed Leak
Adjustment Request Form to the District. The form must be submitted within sixty (60)
days of discovery of the leak, or within sixty (60) days of receiving a bill with water usage
during the time of the leak. The completed form shall be accompanied by a plumber’s
receipt for the repairs performed and/or a receipt for parts. In lieu of receipts,
businesses with in-house maintenance staff may submit a statement signed by the
manager who witnessed the repair.
6. Eligibility
In order to be eligible for a leak adjustment, customers must be enrolled in the District’s
WaterSmart water usage monitoring program. Customers who are enrolled but have
unsubscribed from leak alerts are not eligible for leak adjustments. Customer accounts
must be current and in good standing until the leak adjustment request is reviewed and
the District has made a determination regarding the request. Only one adjustment will
be allowed every 24 months per account.
7. Leaks Qualifying for Adjustment and Calculation of Billing Adjustment
A leak adjustment request must meet all other requirements of this policy. The District
will not adjust any water bills as a result of faucets or hoses left running, the filling of
swimming pools or hot tubs, pressure washing, watering of lawns and gardens, premises
left or abandoned without reasonable care for the plumbing system, or similar water
usages.
8. Calculation of Billing Adjustment
Up to three consecutive bills may be adjusted if the water leak usage occurs over
multiple meter reading periods. The calculation of the proper billing adjustment amount
will be based on average usage during the same billing period in each of the previous
two (2) years or any information that is available on the customer’s account. The
adjustment will only include water usage charges related to the leak. Water base
charges will not be adjusted.
9. Requirement of Actual Leak
The District shall not approve any leak adjustment to a customer's water bill unless the
increased water bill is the result of an actual physical leak which has been located,
documented and repaired.
11. Verification
The District reserves the right to verify that leaks have been repaired before approving
leak adjustments.
12. Approval by District Staff for Water Leak Adjustment
All requests for adjustments shall be approved by the District’s Customer Service staff
before an adjustment is credited to a customer’s account.
RECORD KEEPING REQUIREMENTS
The Customer Service Department shall keep a written record of the customer billing
adjustment request and the action taken by the District.
RIGHT TO APPEAL
The District’s Board of Directors hereby authorizes the District's Customer Service staff
to approve adjustment requests, as appropriate, in accordance with the provisions of this
policy. If the customer wishes to appeal the decision of the Customer Service staff, the
- 3 -
customer shall be advised of their right, upon request, to have the billing adjustment
request heard and acted upon by the Board of Directors. If requested by the customer,
the customer’s request for a billing adjustment shall be scheduled for consideration at
the next regularly scheduled Board of Directors meeting.
NOTICE TO ALL CUSTOMERS
All notices, statements, requests and other communications from the District to the
customer shall be deemed sufficient and properly given if in writing and delivered by
U.S. mail and/or email. A customer’s refusal to accept any notice or communication
shall be deemed receipt.
MODIFICATION OF THIS POLICY
This Leak Adjustment Policy may be modified only through action taken by a majority of
the District’s Board of Directors.
