SUBJECT: Receive a Presentation from Mike Borger of REC Solar, Regarding the potential installation of solar technology within the Scotia Community Services District (SCSD)

RECOMMENDATION:

The Administrative staff recommends that the SCSD Board receive a presentation from Mike Borger of REC Solar, regarding installation of solar technology to offset the significant electrical expenses incurred by the operations of the SCSD.

ACTION:

Provide direction to administrative staff on moving forward with solar proposal.

DISCUSSION:

The General Manager has been in discussions with Mr. Borger on the subject of potentially installing solar technology within the SCSD property to offset the costs of energy. Electrical costs are one of the largest line item expenses within our current budget actuals, as previously noted from the Mid-Year Budget Review (July -December 2018). Rec Solar is proposing to lease the potential sites from the SCSD and fund the costs of the solar infrastructure construction. In return the SCSD will be able to purchase the energy from REC Solar through a power purchase agreement.

FISCAL IMPACT:

Initial investment yet to be determined. Future cost savings of power generation over time projected approximately 50% lower than the current power grid’s costs.

SUBJECT: Review and consider approving Humboldt Redwood Company’s gravel extraction proposal for the Scotia CSD Eel River gravel bar

RECOMMENDATION:

The Administrative staff recommends that the Board review the proposal from HRC regarding gravel extraction on the Scotia CSD river bar.

ACTION:

Consider approval of HRC’s proposal for gravel extraction on the Scotia CSD river bar.

DISCUSSION:

HRC is requesting to extract approximately 30,000 yards of river-run gravel from the Scotia CSD river bar (Scotia Dam Bar) located west of Fireman’s Park (map attached). HRC is offering, as an option agreement, to pay Scotia CSD $0.50 per yard if gravel is extracted in 2019.

HRC claims that it possesses the requisite permits for such extraction activities at the stated location, Scotia CSD staff has not seen these permits. Proposed extraction activities will include the operation of heavy equipment, during daylight hours, for approximately 2 weeks sometime between July and September of this year.

Currently the site is frequented by the public for recreational access to the Eel River, as a part of the CSD’s parks system. There is pedestrian as well as off-road vehicle traffic. The site is most frequented during the summer, the same time as the proposed gravel extraction activity.

Staff received public comment at the last meeting when this was introduced as written communication, advising more concrete hours of operation as “daylight hours” in summer include hours before 6:00am to after 8:00pm, a potential nuisance for homeowners/recreational users.

FISCAL IMPACT:

$15,000

Scotia Community Services District 400 Church Street Scotia, CA 95565

Dear Scotia CSD Members:

This letter is to request admission onto property owned by Scotia CSD by Humboldt Redwood Company for the purpose of extracting approximately 30,000 yards of river-run gravel. HRC is offering, as an option agreement, to pay Scotia CSD $0.50 per yard if gravel is extracted in 2019 for the authorization to access the property identified by the County Assessor as APN 205-421-009. Within this parcel is a gravel bar of the Eel River known as the Scotia Dam Bar located west of Fireman’s Park (map attached), which is the intended source of the gravel.

HRC possesses the requisite permits for such extraction activities at the stated location. Extraction activities will include the operation of heavy equipment, during daylight hours, for approximately 2 weeks sometime between July and September of this year.

If you have any questions, please contact me at your convenience.

Thank you,

FROM: Margaret Long, Legal Counsel with Prentice, Long & Epperson, PC

SUBJECT: Review and discuss Humboldt Wind Energy DEIR, to be led by legal counsel

RECOMMENDATION:

The Administrative staff recommends that the Board receive a brief overview of the DEIR from legal counsel as it pertains to the Scotia CSD, review the DEIR, provide legal counsel with comments and direct legal counsel to send the County a public comment letter of behalf of the Scotia CSD Board of Directors on or before the June 5, 2019 deadline.

ACTION:

Direct legal counsel to send the County a public comment letter of behalf of the Scotia CSD Board of Directors on or before the June 5, 2019 deadline.

DISCUSSION:

The draft environmental impact report (DEIR) was prepared on behalf of the County of Humboldt Planning & Building Department to evaluate the potential environmental effects of the proposed Humboldt Wind Energy Project. The project site is about 20 miles south of Eureka, roughly 12 miles southeast of the city of Fortuna, and 22 miles north of the community of Garberville, and is bisected by U.S. Highway 101 (U.S. 101). The community of Scotia is adjacent to the northern edge of the project site. The proposed project consists of a maximum of 60 wind turbine generators (WTGs) and associated infrastructure with a generating capacity of up to 155 MW. WTGs would generally be placed along Monument and Bear River ridges. WTG heights could reach up to 600 feet tall, with a rotor diameter of 492 feet. In addition to the WTGs and transformers, the project includes ancillary facilities such as temporary staging areas, access roads, 34.5-kilovolt (kV) collection lines, operations and maintenance (O&M) facility, a substation, a modified utility switchyard, and a 115 kV gen-tie along Shively Ridge. A portion of the gen-tie would cross the Eel River; this portion would be constructed underground.

Pending Board approval, this DEIR will be evaluated and commented upon by the Board as it pertains to the Scotia CSD’s jurisdiction: water, wastewater, parks & recreation (potentially to include aesthetics and cultural resources), streets and street lighting, and storm drainage.

FROM: Steve Tyler, Asst. General Manager, Leslie Marshall, General Manager

SUBJECT: Review Proposal from SHN Engineers & Geologists (SHN), Regarding Scotia Community Services District (SCSD) Museum Plaza Lead Remediation.

RECOMMENDATION:

The Administrative staff recommends that the SCSD Board review proposal from SHN, regarding SCSD Museum area lead remediation.

ACTION:

Provide direction to administrative staff.

DISCUSSION:

Last Fall the Friends of No. 9 LLC, removed all the railroad and logging equipment, from the area adjacent to the SCSD Museum outside open area. SCSD contracted with SHN to sample for Lead Concentration at six (6) shallow soil sample sites. The samples were collected before and after the removal of all equipment, on October 17, 2018 and December 4, 2018.

The results of the Lead Concentration Soil Samples indicate that four (4) of the sites will need to be remediated. At two (2) of these four sites, the Lead Concentration increased after all the equipment was removed. SHN recommends that sixty (60) cubic yards of soil be excavated for remediation and disposal. Depending on the amount of hazardous vs non-hazardous concentrations in the excavated soil, the remediation is estimated to cost between $18,223.00 and $29,460.00 to complete the project.

The California EPA has an 80 mg/kg Lead threshold, specific to residential human health, for soil contamination.

SUBJECT: Easement along property line on vacant lot 33

RECOMMENDATION:

The Administrative staff recommends the SCSD Board consider approving a five-foot easement on vacant lot 33, as requested by Gregory Hufford of Wahlund Construction on behalf of Town of Scotia LLC.

ACTION:

Motion to approve or deny easement request. Provide direction to administrative staff.

DISCUSSION:

The Town of Scotia is requesting an easement upon the SCSD owned vacant lot 33. The lot located directly in front of the SCSD administrative office is adjacent to the Town of Scotia’s administrative building at 108 Main Street. The easement would be a five-foot easement along the north-east property line of the SCSD’s vacant lot 33 and would facilitate installation and maintenance of a new water line for connecting fire suppression sprinklers within 108 Main Street. If approved by the SCSD board, then TOS will proceed with developing a legal description of the easement with assistance of land surveyors, Kelly-O’Hern Associates.

SCSD District Engineer says this easement would not affect buildability of the lot in the future in terms of set-backs, etc. And recommends the Board approve the easement.
