SPECIAL MEETING
WATER BOARD - CITY OF BAKERSFIELD
TUESDAY, APRIL 20, 1993
5:15P.M.
The meeting was called to order by Boardmember Brunni at 5:24P.M. in the Water
Resources Conference Room.
Present~ Brunni, Vice-Chair; Kane
Absent: Salvaggio, Chair
A motion was made by Boardmember Kane to approve the minutes of the Special Meeting
held March 16, 1993.
The annexation to City Domestic Water Service Area (Ashe Water) was presented before
the BOard by Mr. Florn Core. The area to be annexed is approximately 5,000 acres, one portion
consists of two parcels which are the property of Castle and Cooke; the remaining parcel is the City
of Bakersfield's 2800 Acres. Boardmember Brunni said that she was unable to vote on this item due
to a conflict of interest on a portion of the property. Larry Lunardini, the City Attorney,
recommended that the properties for annexation be separated and become two items to be presented
before the' Board for their approval and recommendation to the City Council. The Water Board will
vote on one portion of this annexation and the other portion which is the southerly portion will be
sent to full Council with no recommendation due to lack of a quorum. Mr. Core stated that there
was also one other small piece of property, containing approximately 16 acres, which was part of the
Laborde annexation. The landowners' have requested water service from the City due to the
Vaughn Water Company not having the capacity to adequately serve. Vaughn Water Company
would de-annex this from their service area and the City will annex this property to the City's
Domestic Service area. Boardmember Kane made a motion to recommend the annexation of those
portions the Board can vote on to the Domestic Water Service area minus the southerly portion.
Motion carried.
Mr. Gene Bogart presented before theBoard information that the proceedings on SWRCB
Decision 1630 has been shelved by request of the Governor. A letter of thanks to the Governor is
now being circulated for signature by the Mayor and full Ci.ty Council. Mr. Bogart commented that
the Endangered Species Act will be the major focus now and it's going to be a difficult one to work
around due to the strict regulations it will create on Delta pumping. Boardmember Brunni said she
made a presentation before a group at the League of California Cities regarding the 2800 Acres and
what the Department of Fish and Game is attempting to do to restrict water projects.
A motion to adjourn was made by Boardmember Kane at 5:52P.M.
The Water Board Members and staff left for a scheduled tour of the 2800 Acre Groundwater
Recharge ProjeCt.

ARTICLE II
PROVISIONS
1. Chevron shall conslruct and maintain, at its s~le expense, all facilities
necessary to transport and discharge its effluent water into the Beardsley-Lerdo Canal
System.
3
2. Chevron shall discharge all its effluent water into the Beardsley-Lerdo Canal
System up to 11.18 cfs (30-day Mean flow). Chevron shall use its best efforts to maintain
a reasonably constant effluent water quality and discharge flow rate throughout each day
and from day to day. Chevron shall not alternate its disposal of effluent water between
the Beardsley-Lerdo Canal System and other disposal systems based on seasonal
fluctuations in water demand and/or price.
Chevron may dispose of its effluent water by means other than discharging it into
the Beardsley-Lerdo Canal System if a more economic method of disposal is available to
Chevron, provided however, any such cessation of discharge into the Beardsley-Lerdo
Canal System shall continue for a minimum period of twelve (12) successive months
unless otherwise mutually agreed to by the parties. If a mOre economic alternative is
available, Chevron shall provide forty-five (45) days minimum advance written notice to
North Kern, giving North Kern a 45-day option and right of first refusal, to take
Chevron's effluent, under the same terms and conditions applicable to Chevron's alternate
method of disposal. Such written notice shall include the date(s), schedule, quantity, and
cost to Chevron for such an alternate method of disposal. Upon two weeks advance
written request by North Kern, Chevron shall provide North Kern and City copies of all
contracts, right-of-way agreements, or other documents providing for an alternate method
of disposal of Chevron's effluent water. If North Kern decides to acquire Chevron's
effluent water it shall forego collection of charges provided for in paragraphs 8, 9, and 12
of this Agreement. In lieu thereof, North Kern shall either pay Chevron, net after
deduction for all capital expenses incurred by Chevron to conslxuet and develop the
alternate disposal method, the per acre-foot rate Chevron would have been paid under the
alternate disposal contract; or reduce the charges provided in paragraphs 8, 9, and 12 of
this Agreement to a rate equal to the per acre-foot rate to be paid by Chevron as provided
in the alternate disposal contract.
In the event that North Kern does not exercise the option to obtain all of Chevron's
effluent water, or determines to take only part of Chevron's effluent water for any reason,
Chevron may proceed with reasonable efforts to install facilities, which do not encroach
on the Beardsley-Lerdo Canal System right-of-way, necessary to implement the alternate
method of disposal. Chevron may discharge all of it's effluent water to the Beardsley-
Lerdo Canal System, as provided in this Agreement, until such facilities are installed.
Additionally, the parties recognize there may be periods of time when Chevron
must reduce or completely stop the discharge of effluent to the Beardsley-Lerdo Canal
System due to Chevron's internal operational constraints. In the event such a reduction
or cessation of discharge is necessary for a period of at least seven (7) days or longer,
Chevron shall provide North Kern seventy-two (72) hours advance written notice of
Chevron's intention to terminate or recommence discharging its effluent water into the
Beardsley-Lerdo Canal System.
4
The parties to this Agreement will maintain daily communications of current
activity and estimates of flow rates in an effort to predict flow rates forty-eight (48) hours
in advance, thus keeping the parties advised of those matters affecting the receiving water
quality and quantity in the Beardsley-Lerdo Canal System. North Kern and the City shall
have the City's dispatcher phone number, 326-3716, and Chevron's dispatcher, phone
numbers, 392-3435 (Daily), 392-3321 (Emergency), to coordinate this data.

during that period when the Beardsley-Lerdo Canal System is closed for maintenance or
emergency. North Kern agrees that on the earliest possible date, that it shall notify
Chevron of the dates during which the Beardsley-Lerdo Canal System is expected to be
closed for scheduled' maintenance. North Kern further agrees not to close the Beardsley-
Lerdo Canal System for more than fifteen (15) consecutive days for scheduled
maintenance, unless mutually agreed upon by Chevron and North Kern. North Kern also
· agrees to give Chevron as much advance notice as reasonably possible before closing the
Beardsley-Lerdo Canal System for emergency. In the event of an emergency, North Kern
will use its best efforts to minimize the length of time the Beardsley-Lerdo Canal System
is out of operation.
4. Except as provided for in its NPDES permit, Chevron agrees that it will
immediately cease its discharge into the Beardsley-Lerdo Canal System upon being
presented, evidence by North Kern that Chevron's effluent water contains any substance
which is contained within any of the following definitions or lists, whether as currently
drafted or as amended in the future:
a. the definition of "extremely hazardous waste," as defined in section
25115 of the Caiifomia Health and Safety Code; or
b. the definition of "hazardous waste," as defined in section 25117 of
the California Health and Safety COde; or
c. the definition of "hazardous substance," as defined in section 25316
of the California Health and Safety Code; or
d. any substance listed in the California Administrative Code, Title 22,
Chapter 30, Article 9, Hazardous Wastes and Hazardous Materials, section 66680 and
Article II, Criteria For Identification of Hazardous and Extremely Hazardous Wastes,
sections 66693-66746; and
which substances or wastes to the extent that such substances or wastes in the effluent
water cause the receiving waters to be in concentrations that are deleterious to either plant,'
animal or human health.
5
Chevron shall obtain and maintain a NPDES permit CA0080853, Order No.
92-107 and it shall comply with all the terms of such. Any increase in the quantity of
water discharged or modification of the water quality standards specified in such a permit,
shall not be implemented by Chevron unless Chevron has prior written consent of North
Kern.
6. Chevron shall at all times operate its facilities so that Chevron's effluent
water does not cause the receiving water in the Beardsley-Lerdo Canal System to exceed
0.5 MG/1 of boron. Chevron agrees that when there is insufficient Project water in the
Beardsley-Lerdo Canal System to dilute Chevron's effluent water to 0.5 MG/1 of boron,
Chevron shall without hesitation, regardless of time or day, reduce the quantity of flow
of its effluent water to a point at which the receiving water in the Beardsley-Lerdo Canal
System does not exceed 0.5 MG/1 of boron. Chevron's reduction, in relation to other oil
field produced water discharges into the Beardsley-Lerdo Canal System, shall be according
to the proportional reduction requirements specified in the Management Plan promulgated
pursuant to NPDES Order No. 92-107 or as otherwise agreexi to in writing by North Kern.
7. Chevron shall comply with each and every other federal, state or local water
quality standard or provision pertaining to discharging oil field wastewater into the
Beardsley-Lerdo Canal System, whether in existence on the date this Agreement is
executed or promulgated at any subsequent time, once such standard or provision becomes
final' and enforceable by the appropriate governmental agency.
8. Chevron and other oil field produced water dischargers, shall pay North Kern
the actual cost necessarily incurred by North Kern and/or the City to monitor the
constituent level of Chevron's and other oil field produced water discharges, effluent water
and receiving water flowing in the Beardsley-Lerdo Canal System. The actual cost shall
b~ divided amongst all the oil field produced water dischargers based on the proportion
of their respective total quarterly discharge.
North Kern agrees .to quarterly reimburse the City a portion of the
· monitoring charge if the City incurs costs while recording and reporting the Chevron
discharge. Upon request, North Kern shall supply Chevron and the City, with copies of
all monitoring data. Upon request, City shall supply Chevron and North Kern, with copies
of all monitoring data.
North Kern shall provide Chevron with the budgeted amount of the
monitoring fee for the following year by December 1 of the current year. Subject to cost
adjustments as specified in Article II, paragraph 10, the monitoring fee shall be based on
the 1992 yearly budget amount of $52,000.00.
9. Chevron shall pay North Kern the full cost incurred by North Kern and/or
the City for compensating the water users of the Beardsley-Lerdo Canal System, their
successors and assigns, 'for having to add a salt correction material to their soil and/or
water ~to ·counterbalance the higher salt load contained in Chevron's effluent water.
6
Subject to cost adjustments as specified in Article II, Paragraph 10, the salt correction cost
to be paid by Chevron shall be $2.60/acre-foot per 1 lb. of 100 percent Gypsum per 100
GPM/hour that Chevron discharges into the Beardsley-Lerdo Canal System. The gypsum
requirements will be calculated on a quarterly basis based on a geochemical analysis of
the water.
The gypsum requirement and subsequent salt correction cost will be
calculated on a monthly basis as follows:
a. A geochemical analysis will be performed monthly on the effluent
water by the Management Plan Contractor;
b. The gypsum requirement (pounds gyp/100 GPM-hr) will be calculated
for the effluent water using the following equation:
Pounds Gyp/100 GPM-Hr = 4.3 * {[(CO3/30)+(HCO3/61)]-[(Ca/20)+~(Mg/12)]}
where: CO3 = Carbonate in mg/l
HCO3 = Bicarbonate in mg/1
Ca = Calcium in mg/l
Mg = Magnesium in mg/l
c. A running monthly average, based on twelve (12) months of data, will
be calculated for each month. The running average is calculated by dividing the sum of
the twelve (12) most recent analyses by twelve (12);
d. The total discharge flow for each month will then be multiplied by
the corresponding gypsum requirement;
e. The gypsum requirement will then be multiplied by the $2.60/acre-
foot fee and is paid quarterly.
North Kern agrees to quarterly reimburse the City and other diverters
from the Beardsley-Lerdo Canal System a portion of the salt correction charge. Any
reimbursements paid to the City or other diverters shall be based upon the actual water
diverted and used from the Beardsley-Lerdo Canal System. The reimbursements shall be
in proportion to the total Beardsley Canal flow and based upon the quarterly hydrographic
records of the flow of the Beardsley-Lerdo Canal System.
Upon request, North Kern agrees to provide Chevron a quarterly
statement of the reimbursements made to the City and other.diverters from the Beardsley-
Lerdo Canal System concerning the salt correction charge. Upon request, North Kern
7
fui'ther ~grees to provide to the City and to all diverters clear notice of the nature and
source of the reimbursement and the purpose thereof, whether said reimbursement is in
the form of a cash payment or other payment in lieu of cash or in the form of reduced
water charges.
10. The costs stated in Article II, paragraphs 8, 9 and 12, are best estimates of
the full cost associated with the monitoring and treatment of Chevron's effluent water and
are subject to change. Therefore, the aforementioned costs shall be adjusted January 1,
each and every year this Agreement is in effect, either upward or downward according to
the "Implicit Price Deflator for Gross National Product" using the second quarter of the
preceding year in relation to the second quarter of 1992, which stood at 120.6 as a base.
11. North Kern shall invoice Chevron on a quarterly basis for the costs charged
in Article II, paragraphs 8, 9 and 12. Payments not received within sixty (60) days of the
date stated on the billing invoice will incur a late charge of 10 percent plus 1 percent per
month interest on the outstanding balance. Upon termination of this Agreement under
Article II, paragraph 17, all sums currently owing to North Kern shall be paid within
forty-five (45) days of the date of termination.
12. Chevron agrees to pay additional fees based on the constituent level of boron
and oil and grease. Subject to cost adjustments as specified in Article II, paragraph 10,
the boron and oil and grease fees are as follows: a) the boron fee is $0.50/acre-foot per
0.1 mg/1 boron above 0.5 rog/1 in the discharge; b) the oil and grease fee is $0.15/aere-
foot per 1.0 mg/1 free oil and grease above 12.0 mg/1 in the discharge. The boron and
oil and grease fees will be based on the monthly averages of boron and oil and grease
respectively as monitored and analyzed by the .Management Plan Contractor and submitted
to the Regional Water Quality Control Board. These fees will be calculated by North
Kern and paid by Chevron on a quarterly basis.
13. Chevron agrees to assume all duties and obligations including, but not
limited to, the payment of any tax, assessment, penalty or any levy whatsoever, which
may be imposed by any federal, state or local governmental agency upon North Kern, the
City or the water users of the Beardsley-Lerdo Canal System, pertaining to actual or
claimed degradation of groundwater quality due to Chevron's effluent water. Following
imposition by a governmental agency of any above-specified levy, the parties shall meet
and confer to determine the nature and extent, if any, of Chevron's responsibility for such
a levy. Chevron shall not be obligated under this paragraph to make payments to North
Kern, the City or the water users of the Beardsley-Lerdo Canal System, if Chevron has
previously made direct payment to the governmental agency imposing the levy.
14. The charges specified in Article II, paragraphs 8, 9, 12 and if applicable 13
represent the parties' best estimate of the foreseeable costs incurred by North Kern, the
City and the water users of the Beardsley-Lerdo Canal System as a consequence of
Chevron discharging its effluent water into the Beardsley-Lerdo Canal System. No charge
levied~
or fee whatsoever, other than those charges above-specified, shall be. .upder
8 ~z'
. .' ter~ns of'this Agreement by North Kern or the City against Chevron in connection with
the monitoring, discharge or use of Chevron's effluent water in the Beardsley-Lerdo Canal
System.
15. The failure of any party to enforce against the other a provision of this
Agreement shall not constitute a waiver of that party's right to enforce such a provision
at a later time.
16. Chevron agrees to defend, indemnify and hold harmless North Kern and the
City and their respective officers, agents and employees, and each of them, for any injury,
damage, loss, liability, claim or causes of action, including, but not limited to, inverse
condemnation, property damage, personal injury, death directly and proximately caused
by Chevron discharging its effluent water into the Beardsley-Lerdo Canal System.
Provided, however, Chevron shall not be responsible for any injury, damage, loss or
liability directly and proximately caused by the negligent or willful misconduct of either
Noah Kern, the City or the water users of the Beardsley-Lerdo Canal System, including
but not limited to, any and all injury, damage, loss or liability directly and proximately
caused by a water user of the Beardsley-Lerdo Canal System failing to add a salt

State of California ("Agency") and the CITY OF BAKERSFIELD, a Municipal Corporation
("City").
RECITALS
WHEREAS, the Agency is in the process of securing a low-interest loan under the
Water Conservation and Water Quality Bond Law of 1986 for the purpose of constructing
improvements to the water banking and recovery project ("Project") on the Berrenda Mesa
Spreading Grounds which is situated along the Kern River Channel between Buena Vista
Road and the City's 2800-Acre Recharge Area, together with diversion and conveyance
works located.east of Buena Vista Road on lands owned by City and Castle & Cooke
Development Corp.; and
WHEREAS, the Agency has entered into a Memorandum of Understanding with
Berrenda Mesa Water District ("Berrenda Mesa") dated August 31, 1992, incorporated
herein by reference, for operation of said Project and which establishes Agency as the Lead
Agency or Operator of Project; and
WHEREAS, the Project requires diversion headworks proposed for ultimate
incorporation into a reconstruction of the Bellevue Weir. In the interim, said diversion
works will be constructed independent of the Bellevue Weir on or adjacent to Agency fee
ground originally acquired for construction of Pumping Plant No. 5 of the Cross Valley
Canal (CVC); and
WHEREAS, an easement is required from City for construction and maintenance
of a portion of the aforementioned water diversion works and a buried pipeline to be
installed from the diversion headworks on the north side of the Kern River channel easterly
of the Stockdale Highway Bridge and extending to a point in the south bank of the Kern
River westerly of the Stockdale Highway Bridge and for a portion of an existing channel on
City land adjacent to the south side of the Kern River; and
WHEREAS, the conveyance works from City property to Berrenda Mesa fee property
will be in an unlined canal on an easement or fee land acquired from Castle & Cooke; and
WHEREAS, a path for conveyance of water destined for the Berrenda Mesa
Spreading Grounds will emanate from the Kern River Channel upstream of the above-
mentioned headworks or from River Turnout No. 2 of the CVC (also upstream of the
above-mentioned headworks), which water will, in the course of its conveyance to the
Berrenda Mesa Spreading Grounds, pass over and percolate into fee land owned by City
in the Kern River Channel; and
WHEREAS, City is the fee owner of the Kern River Channel easterly of the
Berrenda Mesa Spreading Grounds; and
WHEREAS, Berrenda Mesa is the fee owner of approximately one mile of the Kern
River Channel immediately east of the City's 2800-Acre Recharge Area; and
WHEREAS, it is desirable by the parties to establish priorities for use of the Kern
River Channel with respect to the fee ownership so that either party to this Agreement may
use the fee portions of the channel belonging to the other party for purposes as hereinafter
agreed; .and
WHEREAS, City, in order to provide proper coordination with existing Kern River
Channel diversion activities, shah operate and maintain Project headworks and be entitled
to reimbursement for expenses incurred in this operation; and
WHEREAS, City may desire to utilize the diversion pipeline to be constructed on
City fee ground that is a part of Project; and
WHEREAS, Agency and City intend that completion of this Agreement be a
condition of the City's granting of the easement for the diversion works and pipeline portion
of Project, across City fee ground.
NOW, THEREFORE, CITY and AGENCY mutually agree as follows:
1. GRANTING OF EASEMENT. City agrees to grant Agency a water line and
canal easement approximately 3,500 feet in length, varying from 50 feet to 100 feet in width,
connecting the diversion works near the southerly fee line of Agency property at CVC
Pumping Plant No. 5, down and across the Kern River Channel under the Stockdale
Highway bridge, to a point located on the south bank of the Kern River where the pipeline
will end and a diversion canal will commence at the approximate interface between City and
Castle & Cooke property. This easement is specifically described on Exhibit "A" attached
hereto. This easement agreement, including exhibits, shall be recorded upon full execution
of this agreement.

be determined by City and that in this same reach, water owned and diVerted by Agency or
Berrenda Mesa may be claimed by Agency or Berrenda Mesa for purPoses to be determined
by Agency or Berrenda Mesa. In the event of diversion into the river channel of waters of
commingled ownership where banking is the intention of both parties, fee ownership of the
river channel will dictate the ratio of ownership of' the banked water. In a commingled
diversion where banking is the intention of both parties, the City shall maintain a priority
to claim banking and percolation losses between Bellevue Weir and the east boundary of
Berrcnda Mesa fee ownership in the Kern River Channel and Berrenda Mesa and/or the
Agency shall maintain a priority to claim banking and' percolation losses in the fee portion
of the Kern River Channel owned by' Berrenda Mesa. Parties will agree to a reasonable
determination of amounts banked in each reach of fee ownership.
3. OPERATIONS AND MAINTENANCE. Agency and City agree that City will
operate,.measure and maintain the Project headworks and will, to the extent possible, divert
water owned by Agency over the Bellevue Weir'or into the Project pipeline upon request
of. Agency. Agency shall pay to City a fee in the amount of $0.50 per acre-foot for all
Agency or Berrenda Mesa water diverted into the Project pipeline at the headworks, which
cost shall reimburse City for administration, operations, maintenance and record-keeping
expenses applicable to such diversion. Said fee shall be adjusted to reflect annual change
on the basis of the January 1, 1993 "All Commodities" classifications of the Wholesale Price
Indices for Major Commodity Group published by the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics.
Adjustments to the fee will be made prior to February 15th of each year, or as soon
thereafter as is possible based on the January Index for the current year. Fees payable
during a calendar year shall be based on the January Index for that year. The fee will be
calculated and invoiced monthly by City to Agency and shall be payable within 30 days
receipt of invoice.
4. RECORDS AND SCHEDULING. The parties agree that City shall maintain
records of such water diverted via the Project headworks. Agency shall have access to such
records. Agency shall be responsible to schedule Project water diversions 48 hours in
advance through City water dispatcher at 326-3715.
5. USE OF PROJECT HEADWORKS. Agency and City agree that City shall
have a next priority behind Agency and Berrenda Mesa to utilize Project pipeline and canal
located on City fee land for conveyance of City owned water at those times when Agency
determines there is capacity available in excess of its needs.
6. RESTORATION OF PREMISES. Upon completion of the Project works as
outlined in this Agreement, Agency shall remove all existing temporary facilities from City
fee ownership (including structures, culverts, rip-rap and sandplugs) and restore premises
to its original condition, as determined by City.
