7.9Approve Amendment Two to the Agreement between the County of Lake and SHN Consulting Engineers & Geologists, Inc., for Technical Services in Support of the Implementation of Cleanup and Abatement Order R5-2015-0713 at the Eastlake Landfill, for an additional amount of $80,300 and a contract total of $116,560, and authorize Chair to sign.
Action Item
passed on consent
Staff memo
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY: On November 1, 2015, the County entered into an agreement in the amount of $22,800 with SHN Consulting Engineers & Geologists, Inc. (SHN) to perform technical services in support of the implementation of California Regional Water Quality Control Board Cleanup and Abatement Order R5-2015-0713 (CAO). Amendment One to the Agreement was executed on June 7, 2016 to add $13,460 to the Agreement price to complete additional services requested by the water board. Amendment Two to the Agreement is now required to amend the scope of the Agreement to complete the remaining tasks in the CAO and add $80,300 to the Agreement price for a total cost of $116,560.
The CAO was issued by the water board in July of 2015 as a result of volatile organic compound (VOC) detections at landfill groundwater monitoring well sites during routine sampling. The CAO identifies actions required of the County to cleanup and abate the VOC releases. The County contracted with SHN to perform the work necessary for the initial portion of the CAO, which was to investigate and delineate the extent of VOC releases. This work included preparation of a monitoring work plan, sampling of new permanent water monitoring wells (which were installed through a separate contract), and the preparation of a well installation report. The CAO tasks remaining to be completed include a topographic survey of monitoring wells, an updated evaluation monitoring report, an engineering feasibility study, a corrective action implementation report, and quarterly progress reports. The scope of work negotiated between SHN and the County addresses these tasks but conservatively also includes a task for field investigation work should the water board require additional investigation efforts based on their review of the data and site investigation and delineation reports. Compensation for all tasks will be on a time-and-materials basis for work performed.
RECOMMENDED ACTION: Staff recommends that the Board of Supervisors approve Amendment Two to the Agreement between the County of Lake and SHN Consulting Engineers & Geologists, Inc., for Technical Services in Support of the Implementation of Cleanup and Abatement Order R5-2015-0713 at the Eastlake Landfill, for an additional amount of $80,300 and a contract total of $116,560, and authorize Chair to sign.

Staff memo
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY:
The 2015 fire season in Lake County had a devastating impact on our community in many ways. Clearly, environmental and financial impacts are the most apparent. Those directly affected by the fire also know what an emotional and psychological impact it had.
Lake County's first responders, including law enforcement, firefighters, and emergency medical service personnel answered the calls to service without hesitation, and with extreme professionalism and dedication. Dealing with the emotional impacts of this tragedy certainly had an impact on many of them. When added to a career full of direct interactions involving tragedy, trauma, crisis, and despair, these events have a cumulative effect on first responders.
Many people view our first responders as heroic men and women who are called to a life of service. Many first responders seem to handle these events without displaying outright emotional reactions. However, we must realize that they are also human, and are susceptible to emotional drains and tolls caused by a career filled with such experiences. Public safety employees will typically seek assistance when coping with the stresses by one of three avenues.
First, professional mental health services, including police and public safety psychologists, psychiatrists, counselors, or therapists are available. Many employers, including the County of Lake, offer Employee Assistance Programs free of charge to all employees. While these are quite often the most effective ways of dealing with emotional issues, for many there still remains a stigma that causes those who are in need of assistance to refuse to seek the assistance provided by these professionals.
Second, public safety chaplains are available to offer spiritual guidance. These are specially trained clergy members who understand the trials and tribulations that are involved in a life of public safety service. They receive specialized training which allows them to provide assistance to first responders. While their assistance and counseling is nondenominational, and the services are confidential, there are still public safety employees who seek different outlets for discussing the issues that affect them.
That brings us to a third commonly used avenue first responders use to process events and emotions. Quite frequently, public safety employees are most comfortable speaking with those that are involved in their profession. Whether they are firefighters, paramedics, deputy sheriffs, or police officers, it is human nature to feel most comfortable for people to speaking with others who are most like themselves. Many first responders choose to process emotions by informally consulting and speaking with their coworkers. While this is beneficial in the sense that there is an avenue to discuss emotions, we fail to provide any sort of training to those in the profession that would equip them with the information and tools they need to adequately, appropriately, and effectively interact with their peers. Too often in my career I have seen dedicated public servants' careers destroyed because emotional impacts were processed improperly. For me, it is important, essential, and required that we provide trained peer support personnel that are available to the men and women who serve our community when they need to process the very events that we require them to respond to.
The Counseling Team International is a San Bernardino-based company which provides peer support training, critical incident stress management training, and professional counseling services to first responders. This organization responded to the San Bernardino terrorist attacks and provided services. Upon learning of the service this company provides, I immediately recognized the need for such training in Lake County. Properly trained peer support personnel will not only allow us to provide adequate support to our public safety professionals, but it will also allow us to provide adequate support to the very communities we serve.
Lake County's devastating 2015 fire season caused many emotional interactions between members of our community, including our first responders. It caused a tremendous adverse financial impact to our County. Funding for special projects including training is extremely difficult to come by as Lake County rebuilds. Despite this fact, we are still obligated to provide adequate training to our employees. Not only are there legal mandates, it is simply a good thing to do for our community.
I reached out to various organizations and community members for donations so that we could provide this training at no taxpayer cost. I am pleased to announce that we have secured sufficient donations to sponsor a basic peer support training right here in Lake County.
At this time I would like to publicly express my gratitude and acknowledge several groups and individuals whose contributions are making this training possible. I would like to start by thanking the A to Z Foundation and Rick Bullock who organized a special fundraiser to support this cause. Notable contributors for the fundraiser include Ron and Terri Minudri, Black Rock Golf Course and its owners, the Moore Family, the Loch Lomond Roadhouse, and its owners Mike and Cheryl Dabney, and Kevin Smith Construction. Many other individuals made contributions and donations, and I am proud to be a part of a community that values and appreciates its first responders.
I would also like to thank and acknowledge the Lake Area Rotary Club Association (LARCA), whose very generous donation of $10,000 sent a clear message that our community cares for the first responders who serve us all. LARCA is a true reflection of our communities in Lake County. Every Rotary Club in the county participated in fundraising to assist fire victims, and I am truly thankful for their contribution to this worthy cause.
This training is scheduled for November 7-9th at the Blue Lakes Lodge. 30 first responders will be sponsored to attend the training. It is my hope and vision that we can establish a group of trained peer support personnel from all public safety agencies in Lake County that will grow, meet regularly, and be available to serve those who serve.

MEMORANDUM
TO: Rob Brown, Chairman, Board of Supervisors
FROM: Brian Martin, Sheriff-Coroner
DATE: June 23, 2016
SUBJECT: Acknowledge the community members that generously donated to help provide the opportunity to host a Peer Support Training set for November in Lake County.
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY:
The 2015 fire season in Lake County had a devastating impact on our community in many ways. Clearly, environmental and financial impacts are the most apparent. Those directly affected by the fire also know what an emotional and psychological impact it had.
Lake County's first responders, including law enforcement, firefighters, and emergency medical service personnel answered the calls to service without hesitation, and with extreme professionalism and dedication. Dealing with the emotional impacts of this tragedy certainly had an impact on many of them. When added to a career full of direct interactions involving tragedy, trauma, crisis, and despair, these events have a cumulative effect on first responders.
Many people view our first responders as heroic men and women who are called to a life of service. Many first responders seem to handle these events without displaying outright emotional reactions. However, we must realize that they are also human, and are susceptible to emotional drains and tolls caused by a career filled with such experiences. Public safety employees will typically seek assistance when coping with the stresses by one of three avenues.
First, professional mental health services, including police and public safety psychologists, psychiatrists, counselors, or therapists are available. Many employers, including the County of Lake, offer Employee Assistance Programs free of charge to all employees. While these are quite often the most effective ways of dealing with emotional issues, for many there still remains a stigma that causes those who are in need of assistance to refuse to seek the assistance provided by these professionals.
Second, public safety chaplains are available to offer spiritual guidance. These are specially trained clergy members who understand the trials and tribulations that are involved in a life of public safety service. They receive specialized training which allows them to provide assistance to first responders. While their assistance and counseling is nondenominational, and the services are confidential, there are still public safety employees who seek different outlets for discussing the issues that affect them.
That brings us to a third commonly used avenue first responders use to process events and emotions. Quite frequently, public safety employees are most comfortable speaking with those that are involved in their profession. Whether they are firefighters, paramedics, deputy sheriffs, or police officers, it is human nature to feel most comfortable for people to speaking with others who are most like themselves. Many first responders choose to process emotions by informally consulting and speaking with their coworkers. While this is beneficial in the sense that there is an avenue to discuss emotions, we fail to provide any sort of training to those in the profession that would equip them with the information and tools they need to adequately, appropriately, and effectively interact with their peers. Too often in my career I have seen dedicated public servants' careers destroyed because emotional impacts were processed improperly. For me, it is important, essential, and required that we provide trained peer support personnel that are available to the men and women who serve our community when they need to process the very events that we require them to respond to.
The Counseling Team International is a San Bernardino-based company which provides peer support training, critical incident stress management training, and professional counseling services to first responders. This organization responded to the San Bernardino terrorist attacks and provided services. Upon learning of the service this company provides, I immediately recognized the need for such training in Lake County. Properly trained peer support personnel will not only allow us to provide adequate support to our public safety professionals, but it will also allow us to provide adequate support to the very communities we serve.
Lake County's devastating 2015 fire season caused many emotional interactions between members of our community, including our first responders. It caused a tremendous adverse financial impact to our County. Funding for special projects including training is extremely difficult to come by as Lake County rebuilds. Despite this fact, we are still obligated to provide adequate training to our employees. Not only are there legal mandates, it is simply a good thing to do for our community.
I reached out to various organizations and community members for donations so that we could provide this training at no taxpayer cost. I am pleased to announce that we have secured sufficient donations to sponsor a basic peer support training right here in Lake County.
At this time I would like to publicly express my gratitude and acknowledge several groups and individuals whose contributions are making this training possible. I would like to start by thanking the A to Z Foundation and Rick Bullock who organized a special fundraiser to support this cause. Notable contributors for the fundraiser include Ron and Terri Minudri, Black Rock Golf Course and its owners, the Moore Family, the Loch Lomond Roadhouse, and its owners Mike and Cheryl Dabney, and Kevin Smith Construction. Many other individuals made contributions and donations, and I am proud to be a part of a community that values and appreciates its first responders.
I would also like to thank and acknowledge the Lake Area Rotary Club Association (LARCA), whose very generous donation of $10,000 sent a clear message that our community cares for the first responders who serve us all. LARCA is a true reflection of our communities in Lake County.

8.39:30 A.M. - Discussion and Consideration of (a) Separating the Public Works and Water Resources Departments; (b) Approve Revisions to the Water Resources Director classification and establish the minimum qualification criteria; and (c) Request an advertising process broader than normal because of the unique nature of the position and value to the County’ economy.
Action Item
not acted on
Staff memo
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY:
I request the Board take up the following items for discussion and consideration. This item was taken up before but respectfully temporarily withdrawn while department consolidation was being considered and until the budget was in place:
(a) Director Position for the Departments of Water Resources and Public Works. The Water Resources Department has traditionally been a separate entity. The role of Director for Water Resources and Public Works was combined by past action of the Board. The time it takes to properly lead each separate-role department is called into question by the recent fire disaster and the recovery process and particularly because of the pressing problems and technical nature of natural lake management. Either department's actions can negatively affect property values, tourist visits and slow economic growth. In addition, the qualifications for working on and leading lake and watershed runoff issues calls for specialized technical background.
Cost vs Lost Opportunity. The present situation may be costing the County grant dollars in addition to lost opportunity for incrementally improving the lake ecosystem. Recently the Board approved onetime support funding to provide a scientist at the Deputy Director level for DWR but the selection did not meet the technical background required for lake science evaluation and project development. Additional consideration is that the difference for funding at the DD vs. the full Director level is minimal compared to the additional value received by changing the present circumstances and a new recruiting effort made.
The Department of Public Works requires the attention needed to rebuild infrastructure lost by the fires as well as new infrastructures needed to upgrade to modern standards. In addition are the road, bridge and other infrastructure maintenance and upgrade pressures for the rest of the County amid changing standards and economic growth.
The Department of Water Resources is not only in charge of flood and water delivery structures as is traditional but natural systems such as wetland, emergent vegetation, stream and lake functions.
The lake has a history of nutrient loading and internal loading including phosphorus, nitrogen and micronutrients. The result has been significant cyanobacteria bloom cycles and cyano-toxin byproducts that affect water supply and water contact recreation. The issues are technically complex, have led to TMDL sanctions by regulators (RWQCB) and require a specialized background to both understand and develop cost effective management programs that reassure residents and visiting public. If the lake becomes known for toxic shoreline waters for pets and water contact sports (such as recently in the Russian River) the economy can be even more severely affected.
Without a carefully chosen and well supported Director, the Water Resources Department will flounder to understand the lake ecosystem and advise the Board. Clear Lake is the underpinning of the economy in many areas such as fishing, vacationing, second home and resort vacationers as well as birding and other forms of ecotourism. Continuing to develop those attributes will help make up for lost resort capacity due to the recent fires but also support recovery funding.
Grant Driven Management: We are in a state level, competitive, grant driven management system. The County has received grants for the Middle Creek projects for land purchase. A basic ingredient for additional water supply and ecosystem grants are well-founded applications for project funding by technically knowledgeable staff with baseline data. I have visited the Director of Fish and Wildlife and the Secretary of the Natural Resources Agency to understand how to develop better grant funding options for Lake County. In these discussions it was clear that our few applications have not met the mark with technical understanding, water quality monitoring baseline data, benchmarks and project development that describes how the lake works and how the projects will lead to measurable solutions for the lake.
One consideration is resolving where the problems for the lake arise. Is it past anthropomorphic changes, present land practices or natural systems (such as internal loading) that need better understanding? Off-road vehicle groups, farming segments, septic systems, lost habitats and bad roads are implicated. Solutions such as expensive wetland restoration in one stream system are seen as the end-all but this is not a guarantee and the metric elements for success are needed. No direct measurements have been made for the comparative inputs throughout the lake basin nor has an estimate of the lake's nutrient lock-up/loss rates developed, or the level of nutrient reduction needed from each sub-watershed.
Several decades of scientific studies led to an adequate understanding of the lake processes as revealed in the 1994 Clean Lakes report. But since this report and the supporting scientific publications, this background has not been followed up with watershed monitoring and adaptive management programs that can be used to develop grant applications or advise the Board. The citizens of Lake County should have a Department technically capable of both sorting through and developing good data, developing benchmarks, work-plans and understanding of relevant problems and solutions.
(b) Minimum Qualifications. Most lake managers are concerned about artificial lake levels because there are significantly more dam impoundments than natural lake systems in California. Clear Lake is unique as the largest, oldest, natural, warm-water ecosystem in California and not many managers with experience are available in the local recruitment pool. The background for natural lake and watershed ecosystems are embedded in the lake sciences such as Limnology and earth sciences such as fluvial geomorphology. To act at the Director level, additional background in management and administration are also needed.
(c) Advertising. Because of the small pool of experienced and technically qualified managers for natural lake ecosystems a recruitment process that advertises our unique lake attributes in the North American Lake Managers Society, the California Lake Managers Society, the American Fisheries Society (AFS), the AFS Cal-Neva group and the Limnology Departments of major Universities (to reach lake manager qualified alumni) should be a minimum addition to the usual advertising methods.

Action Item

Staff memo
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY:
Each year, as way to help States address the issue of homelessness, the Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) provides funding in the form of Emergency Solutions Grants. Historically the State of California has made these funds available only on a competitive basis. This year, in order to provide a more balanced distribution of funds, the State made approximately fifty per cent of the funding allocated to California available on a non-competitive basis.
Recently, the California Department of Housing and Community Development (HCD) contacted each Continuum of Care (CoC) to gauge their interest in being considered to receive some of this funding. The Lake County CoC requested to be considered and HCD then asked the Lake County CoC to go through a process to identify and recommend an agency to operate what is being called a Rapid Rehousing (RRH) Program. The RRH Program takes homeless individuals or families and places them into housing, provides for their rent for up to a year, and provides intensive case management to ensure all obstacles and challenges are addressed so that participants can be responsible for their rent once they are exited from the program. The amount available to operate this program will be no less than $75,000 and no more than $200,000 for a two-year period.
The Lake County CoC is currently going through the process of selecting an agency to recommend to HCD to operate this program in Lake County. North Coast Opportunities (NCO) is in the process of submitting a proposal to the Lake County CoC for consideration on July 15, 2016. As part of the process, NCO will need your Board's approval to administer the program in case they are recommended by the CoC and selected by HCD to operate the program.
ESG funding is normally given directly to Counties and Cities and for this reason HCD has requested that any agency wishing to be considered to operate the program receive authority from the Governmental Agency responsible for the jurisdiction in which they will operate the program. To clarify, this request does not reflect an endorsement by the Lake County CoC or any of the County's departments, but rather, it allows NCO to submit their proposal by complying with HCD's requirements.
Thank you for your consideration.

9.5Consideration of continuing the Proclamation of a Declaration of a Local Emergency due to wildfire conditions
Report

Staff memo
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY: As your Board is aware, in the afternoon of July 29, 2015, the Rocky Fire began in the area of Morgan Valley Road and continued for several weeks. This prompted the activation of the Lake OES Emergency Operations Center (EOC) and Matt Perry County Administrative Officer/OES Director (retired) declared a Local Emergency on July 31, 2015. On August 4, 2015, your Board ratified the declaration by Resolution no. 2015-107, confirming the existence of such emergency. The dangers of this year's fire season continued on Sunday, August 9, 2015, when the Jerusalem Fire broke out, and your Board amended the declaration of a local emergency on August 18, 2015, to include the Jerusalem Fire, by Resolution no. 2015-109. On the afternoon of September 12, 2015, the Valley Fire began. This again prompted the activation of the EOC and Matt Perry County Administrative Officer/OES Director (retired) declared a Local Emergency that evening. This was ratified by your Board on September 15, 2015 by Resolution no. 2015-128.
As the County seeks funding and performs recovery operations related to tree removal and other fire recovery projects for the Rocky, Jerusalem, and Valley Fires, it is advisable that we continue the declaration of an emergency to support the fire recovery process.
This declaration needs to be re-considered and confirmed by your Board once every 30 days to stay in effect.
