Resolution No. 2010-65
DATE: June 2, 2010 C\ v
TO: Honorable Mayor and City Council
FROM: Lewis Pozzebon, Director
RE: Request for Approval of Aboveground Petroleum Storage Fee Ordinance
Assembly Bill 1130 created the Health & Safety Code (H&SC), Chapter 6.67, Sections 25270
through 25720.13, which gave our department authority to implement the. Aboveground Petroleum
Storage Act (APSA) in Vernon effective January 1, 2008.
APSA applies to facilities that are subject to the oil pollution prevention regulations specified in Part
1121 of Subchapter D of Chapter I of Title 40 of the Code of Federal Regulations or that have a
storage capacity of 1,320 gallons or more of petroleum in tanks and containers that are substantially
above the ground. The total storage capacity of petroleum at a facility is obtained by adding the
rated design capacity of each container that can store 55 gallons or more of petroleum. Examples of
petroleum includes crude oil, sludge, mineral oil, petroleum solvents, gas turbine fuel oils,
lubricating oils, waste oil, kerosene, soluble cutting and metalworking fluid containing petroleum,
inks and coatings containing petroleum, diesel, gasoline, heating oil, and biodiesel (if it is not 100%
biodiesel).
One time grant funding, provided by the California Environmental Protection Agency, has
supported our department's APSA activities, such as training and program development, for two
years. However, to provide long term full cost recovery, a permanent fee base is needed.
An introductory letter has been issued to each APSA facility in Vernon explaining the program.
A discussion of proposed fees was included in the letter.
FISCAL IMPACT:
Attached is a recommended APSA fee schedule for the different size volume capacity tanks
found within Vernon. In addition, a comparison chart is also included to compare other
jurisdictions and their fee schedules.
The Proposed APSA fee schedule is derived from the State Water Resources Control Board
estimates on inspection and review times needed to conduct inspections once every 18 months.
JUN 0 2 2010
The fees generated by the new APSA fee schedule would cover the cost of conducting the
mandated inspections as required by the State. We estimate approximately $14,000 would be
collected each year to fund the program.
RECOMMENDATION:
After holding a public hearing on the proposed fees and charges to be established pursuant to the
Aboveground Petroleum Storage Act, we recommend that an ordinance authorizing the fees and
charges be introduced and read by title only, and that the related resolution setting the fees be
approved by the Mayor and City Council Members. We will invoice APSA facilities for Fiscal
Year 2010-11 as soon as the ordinance is effective.
The proposed ordinance and resolution will enable the Health Department to provide full cost
recovery in conducting the required reviews and inspections of the newly regulated aboveground
petroleum storage tanks in a timely manner.

Hi Lew:
I'm on the phone with Trisha Ortiz regarding it - she's been working with Larry on it all of last week. We should have it ready in
time for today's agenda packet. Have you prepared the staff report, or are you waiting on the drafts from Trisha?
Also - Trisha received a fee schedule attached to the April 22, 2010 staff report (the staff report that went to the City Council
already). Is that still the correct fee schedule to use in the resolution?
Best regards,
