Be. 355 Santa Ana, California 92702 Brief: The Health Officer recommends that the City Council enact a proposed well ordinance as a measure necessary for the pre- vention of safety hazards and the protection of groundwater quality Your Honorable Council, %/_ 3 (C-) Improper practices utilized in the construction and abandonment of wells have been known to create safety hazards and to degrade the quality of our underground water supplies. Recognizing this potential problem, the Board of Supervisors earlier this year enacted an ordinance regulating well con- struction, which we now submit to you for your consideration (Attachm_nt I). As your Health Department, we are calling upon your City, along with all ether cities in the County, to adopt a similar ordinance so as to achieve uniform County -wide application. The proposed ordinance is the product of au extensive review of the problem by a special committee of the Orange County Water Association, representing water purveyors, well contractors, consulting engineers and local geverament. The ordinance has been reviewed and endorsed by staff of the State Department of Water Resources and both Regional Water Quality Control Boards in the County. Also, the Executive Committee of the League of California Cities, Orange County Division, has recommended its adoption by member cit�3 .. t. nle APR . . .. 13/"IT\ _ .....................ter COPIES SENT It Mayor Hxnuget 'V i.mey public Worke Dirt t" { 1 19xnu ®g Direct" Usher 0 t:nancttIDa� .. L ,� r lk - 2 - Pursuant to provisions of the State Water Code, Sections 13800 to 13806, a regional water quality control board may require cities and counties to adopt standards for well construction when needed to protect the ground water quality in a particular area. If a city or- Bounty fails to act upon being notified, the regional board may adopt such AlMdards, which must then be enforced by the city or county as a local ordinance. `'Such requirements have already been imposed in many areas of the State and it is only a matter of time until we are also contacted by the State for this purpose. This Department believes that it is preferable to proceed according to a thoroughly considered plan, rather than to react hastily to a State edict. Therefore, we recommend your favorable action in adopting the proposed ordinance. By so doing, you will help to establish a uniform County wide program of enforcement under Health Department administration. We also recommend that you adopt the proposed agreement (Attachment II) and the schedule of permit fees (Attachment III) to enable us to recover our costs of enforcing the ordinance. Please note that in adapting the ordinance for use by your City, all references to the County, Board of Supervisors, or unincorporated territory should be modified appropriately. Also, the reference to Government Code Section 28545, pertaining to recovery of abatement costs by a county, should be changed to Section 38773.5, which is the equivalent-provision for cities. We fully understand that this subject is rather complex and may require further discussion and explanation. Therefore, we will be pleased to have our representa- tive meet with you or your staff to answer any questions you may have. Please let me know if you wish to arrange for such a meeting. Very truly yours, U;. R, JOHN R.

APPROVED AS TO FORM: l City A.19COrney CITY OF NEWPORT BEAC , a municipal corpora ion By C- Mayor ATTEST i city C erc JAMES M. MONTGOMERY, CONSULTING ENGI //NEERS, q INC. By R December 27, 1967 TO: CITY COUNCIL FROM: Public Works Department SUBJECT: rENGINEERING SERVICES FOR REDEVELOPING CITY WELLS IN HUNTINGTON BEACH w RECOMMENDATIONS: 1. That James M. Montgomery Consulting Engineers, Inc. be retained at a cost not to exceed $1,200.00 for engineering services for redeveloping the City owned wells in Huntington Beach. 2. That the cost of these services be paid for out of the future Water Sources Reserve. DISCUSSION: The Water Committee, at their meeting held on December 16, 1967, reviewed the possibility of redeveloping the City owned wells located at the corner of Adams Avenue and Brookhurst Avenue in the City of Huntington Beach. Recent geological studies made in the Talbert Gap area indicate the possible presence of good quality water in a lower aquifer. Because of the importance of a secondary source of water to the City's system, it was felt that a complete cost study should.be made for redrilling the wells and transporting the water to the 16th Street reservoir site. The firm of James M. Montgomery has been contacted and the estimated cost of providing the necessary cost and engineering information is $1,200.00. Sufficient funds are available in the Future Water. Sources Reserve. In the event that the recommendations are approved, a Budget Amendment has been prepared for Council information. oseph Devlin u blic Wo ks Director JTD /ldg COUNCIL• .u, -) R 12eTe1v T1dN 6-r I �llry72s s?7 LYJdNT�Q /7Je,Q [� l°O/YS UL Ting rhykS 47 COST Nbf Ta Frfead /2o-o To STo o�y %Pe ode L e lcr o*ey a� Q ry o cv n 6-d w #7?
