Dear MROSD Board Members:
I write you to express my concern with the condition of the Lost Creek Trail at the Los Trancos Open Space Preserve, and
area extremely well known to me due to my living in or adjacent to it for 23 years.
PG&E Clear-Cutting rather than Pruning:
Though it is PG&E that is to"maintain"the areas under its power lines to guard against fire and interference from trees,
does not MROSD have a responsibility to at least try to influence PG&E as to how it handles open space lands on which
PG&E holds an easement?Surely PG&E can't be allowed to clear-cut an area simply because it is faster and easier to do
so rather than be selective?The piles of dead brush and trees make for more of a tinderbox than necessary, as only some
of the trees cut need pruning or removing. Why cut everything down to soil level, leaving the area entirely barren of any
living thing, while rendering the area ugly for hikers?Should you not discuss this with PG&E?
Sudden Oak Death Management Negative Impact:
MROSD is trying to do the right thing regarding sudden oak death - I have no doubt. And I have no easy answer for
alternative practices. I see on the website that there are apparently 49 heritage Oaks somewhere on your lands that you
want to protect from infection. But I worry about where we are going with the current attempt with disease management
prevention. Along the Lost Creek Trail, many Bay trees of various sizes have been cut down and left to dry on canyon
slopes and in the creek beds. Many will grow back, branching out from stumps, or new ones grow, and more cutting will
presumably be done and ever more fire fuel created.
As we know, well-meaning responses to nature's problems such as sudden oak death often have unintended
consequences. Here dying trees and intentional cutting is producing a fuel load that can feed a wild fire that is increasingly
possible given climate change. While fire is a natural process of nature, creating more fuel in this way is not, and will
increase fire severity. Given that Bay trees are fast growing and tenacious, they will surely continue in areas where they
have been cut. MROSD will presumably contend not only with SOD but substantially more fire danger, perhaps devastating.
Is MROSD aware that these problems are being generated by its current practices? Hike this trail yourself and in an hour
you will understand what the current practice is creating. It is not everywhere, but rather in a few areas. I am happy to lead a
"tour".
Given that the canyon I mention is downhill from a place on Page Mill Rd. where several houses sit, does the fuel present
an increased danger to people?Your policy states:
The District provides the land management expertise to provide for public safety and the protection of natural resources.
This role extends also to vegetation management to reduce the severity of wild land fire, the resultant damage to resource
values, and risks to public safety.
i
Are there better practices than can be adopted and mitigation of the current negative impacts mentioned? Can the material
at least be moved further up a slope to protect creeks from clogging?
Again, I know you work hard to acquire and manage our precious open space. I support you and respect you for doing so,
which is why I wanted you to know of my concerns.

BOARD CONSIDERATION
Ms. Winter DeUenbach
� Palo Alto, [A
Email:
Subject: Response tm your 3/I#/13 email regarding tree work in Los Trancos Open Space
Preserve
Dear Ms. DeUenbach: �
Thank you for taking the time to express your concerns regarding work that was performed in
Los Trancos Open Space Preserve (OSP). VVe share your concern that tree clearing needs tobe
done properly and that heritage oak trees should be protected with aesthetics and fire safety in
mind. We understand that some of your concerns were alleviated after touring the preserve
with Area Superintendent Brian Malone .
The Midpeninsula Regional Open Space District (District) works very closely with Pacific Gas &
� Electric (PG&E)to nnininni��the impact of on 0��ri�� preserves. |n
� ` . �
� particular, we had extensive discussions with PG&E regarding their proposed work within their /
easement for the Monte Vista-Jefferson power line. This line isa regional electrical 23Dhv /
� supply line that runs roughly from Cupertino to San Carlos and crosses through Rancho San �
�
Antonio, Monte Bello, Los Trancos, Coal Creek, Russian Ridge, and La Honda Open Space �
Preserves. Federal regulations require that PG&E keep these lines clear of vegetation to �
�
prevent the interruption of electrical service and tmprevent fines. A loss in power to the line .
could cause a catastrophic regional power outage in the western states. In aar|y2O11, PG&E
presented a proposal to improve the clearance under the Monte Vista-Jefferson line.
Easements and federal regulations allow PG&E the rights needed to perform this clearing, and
they were proactive in seeking the District's approval prior to commencing work. After lengthy
discussions, PG&E agreed to reduce the number of trees removed and implement several �
conditions requested by the District.
�
The pertinent conditions that PG&E agreed tuwere: 1\ to chip material at locations that were
accessible tovehicles; 2) lop and scatter material at locations not accessible to vehicles; 3) limit
�
the use of herbicides; 4) clear cut material from roads and trails; 5\ place public information
signs during work; and 6) keep the District apprised of their progress. The lop and scatter �
technique is the preferred method required by the California Department of Forestry and Fire �
Protection during logging operations because it minimizes fire danger and speeds the
decomposition process. In addition, PG&E checked sites in the field with District staff inorder �
�
to determine which tree removals met their needs while maximizing resource protection. �
There were additional protections and restrictions in place to protect sensitive species and �
habitats. �
�
�
�
|n the case of Los TranoaOSP,they followed the agreement. Unfortunately, two towers and
low hanging power lines intersect two trails in the preserve. As you were able to see with your
field trip with Superintendent Malone, although a clear cut technique was used directly under
the towers and adjacent lines, as soon as the topography drops under the lines, PG&E was able
to leave the forest intact. As is the case with a road which runs through wilderness, we have to
accept some level of maintenance to keep these essential power lines safe.
Sudden Oak Death (SOD) is a tree disease caused by the plant pathogen Phytophthora �
nmnnururn. The disease kills some oak species and has had devastating effects on forests in
California and Oregon. The District has been deeply involved in efforts to study and identify
possible solutions to the scourge of SOD. One of these efforts is to protect heritage canyon live
oak trees from SOD. This project removed infested or potentially infested California bay trees
from within 15 feet of approximately 5O very large and scenic canyon live oak trees tPprotect
the oaks from infestation and death by SOD in Los Trancos, Long Ridge, Saratoga Gap, Skyline
Ridge, Monte Bello and Russian Ridge OSPs. Bay trees have been confirmed as one ofthe
primary carriers ofthe SOD pathogen even though they are not killed byit. Protecting these
oak trees will prevent erosion in the watersheds, protect wildlife habitat and prevent the
buildup of wildfire fuels. Depending on their size, bay trees were removed either with weed
wrenches, |wppersorchainsavvs. Removed bay trees and branches were chipped or bucked up
into smaller lengths and left in scattered piles on the forest floor to match the surrounding
forest undprstoryand provide habitat. Cut bay trees were not removed from the forest since
� this could lead to additional spread ofthe SOD pathogen. At Los Trancos specifically, large and �
small bays were removed around 25 large oak trees, mostly on the Franciscan Loop Trail but �
also on the Fault Trail and one each at the beginning (southerly end) of the Page Mill Trail (you
did point out this location during your tour) and at the intersection of Lost Creek and Franciscan
Loop Trails. No cut bays or branches were placed increeks. Most uf this work was done in �
� 2OO9 and 2O11.
� The section of the Lost Creek Trail that you showed to Superintendent Malone was not a site
� where any of this work was performed. It was, however, an example of the devastation that
� the combination of dense bay trees and tan oaks(which are extremely susceptible toSOD) can
have unaforest. Numerous tan oak trees have succumbed to the disease in that area.
Although there are several bay trees that also fell down in that area,they were not cut down.
Staff did cut the trees after they fell to preserve an open path down the trail. We will direct
staff to install a sign in this area as an educational opportunity. Removal of all the debris would
be extremely costly and would probably result in greater environmental damage due to soil
disturbance. The District will investigate ifsome of the downed trees can be lopped and
scattered to speed the decomposition process. Although rather ugly atthis point, natural
processes will take advantage of the increased light in the years to come and replace all the
dead and dying trees with new growth.
Thank you again for your interest and for reporting these conditions. We share your concern
for this special area, which we understand was at one point your home. If you have further
questions feel free to contact Area Superintendent Brian Malone at (650)949-1848.
Sincerely,
Jed Cyr, Board President

AGENDA ITEM 4
AGENDA ITEM
Field Enforcement Activity Report for Calendar Year 2012 and Ten-Year Field Activity
Summary
GENERAL MANAGER'S RECOMMENDATION
Accept the Calendar Year 2012 Miscellaneous Enforcement Activity Summary and the Ten-Year
Field Activity Summary.
SUMMARY
The year's Field Enforcement Activity Report continues the transition that started in 2010 from
the old data collection and presentation methods to a system utilizing solely an Access database.
The old system used a combination of manual record keeping, Excel spreadsheets, and an old
Access database. To allow for comparison, data from the old system is shown in this report, but
the transition has been made to the new Access database, ensuring greater accuracy and allowing
more efficiency and in-depth record keeping and reporting of information. In reviewing changes
from prior years, it is important to understand that differences in record keeping systems can
account for different counts in the violations.
The total violations on District property(including both District Ordinances and non-District
Ordinances) increased by 3.2%over Calendar Year(CY) 2011.
2011 2012 % Change
District Ordinance Violations 1,487 1,563 5.1%
Non District Violations 176 153 -13.1%
Total Violations 1,663 1,716 3.2%
DISCUSSION
The Board will receive three summaries regarding Field Enforcement Activity: 1)the CY2012
Miscellaneous Enforcement Activity Summary(Appendix A);the Ten-Year Field Activity
Summary (Appendix B.1); and a summary of the actual violation codes which are listed in order
of frequency of occurrence (Appendix B.2). Please note, however,that information for prior
years in Appendix B.2 is not complete. Graphical representation of trends is shown in
Appendices C and D.
R-13-31 Page 2
The Miscellaneous Enforcement Activity Summary (Appendix A) lists in chronological order
contacts made or reports taken by staff of potentially serious,violent, or other criminal activity
on or near District land. This is not a comprehensive list of incidents but reflects incidents of
special interest or concern. Events which posed special concern for ranger safety or were
unusual in nature are included.
The Ten-Year Field Activity Summary includes violations of District Land Use Regulations,
emergency responses, criminal activity, and mutual aid incidents. Only contacts that resulted in
some form of written record, such as a District incident report, written warning, citation, or
mutual aid assistance report have been included in these summaries. General assistance to
preserve visitors, informational contacts, and verbal warnings are not included.
Trends and Issues
Parking and Parking-After-Hours violations (556 violations) accounted for 32.4%of the total
violations in the past year, with Rancho San Antonio Open Space Preserve experiencing the
greatest number of parking violations (378)of any District preserve.
Total bicycle violations decreased by 6.4% from the previous year. This shows a steady
downward trend since 2009.

Total Violations 338 424 311 310 322 293 368 285 250 234
Thirty-four bicycle accidents occurred this year, which is an increase of 12 over the twenty-two
that occurred in 2011. Appendix D provides graphical information on accident trends for
different user groups.
Dog violations decreased 18.1%from 349 violations in 2011 to 286 violations in 2012, which is
nearly identical to the average of 286.1 violations per year for the ten-year period.
The number of off-road incidents has been noted in the last few years' reports. These incidents
reach a high of 38 incidents in 2010. In 2011,there were 26 incidents,and in 2012, there were
27 incidents. Efforts to prevent off-road incidents will continue in 2012.
Violations of District Ordinances continue to be the main issues that District rangers deal with
and the most common violations are illustrated in Appendix B.2. After-hours use and off-leash
dog violations were the most frequent occurrences. Please note that the next three most common
occurrences involve people or dogs being in areas where they are prohibited: 1) Entry to Closed
Area; 2) Dog in Prohibited Area; and 3)Closed Area— Bicycle.
R-13-31 Page 3
Rancho San Antonio Open Space Preserve continues to be the most active preserve for parking
violations, with 354 parking citations written in 2012. This is significantly higher than the 252
parking citations written in 2011.
Overall the number of violations of District Ordinances has remained relatively steady over the
last five years, despite the addition of additional acres of land (See Appendix C for a graphical
representation of the information). During the last ten years the number of users, the number of
acres managed by the District, and the number of ranger positions has also increased.
BOARD COMMITTEE REVIEW
Committee review of this agenda item is not required.
FISCAL IMPACT
No fiscal impact is anticipated from the acceptance of this information.
PUBLIC NOTICE
Public notice was provided by the Brown Act. No further notice is required.
CEQA COMPLIANCE
This proposed action is not a project under the California Environmental Quality Act and no
environmental review is required.
NEXT STEPS
Staff will continue to actively enforce District regulations, encourage all users to act in a manner
which provides for the protection of the natural resources, and allow for the safe and enjoyable
use of the preserves by all visitors.

AGENDA ITEM 5
AGENDA ITEM
Authorization to Purchase Capital Equipment for the Operations Department at a Total Cost Not
to Exceed $635,000
GENERAL MANAGER'S RECOMMENDATIONS
l. Authorize the General Manager to execute a purchase contract with the State
g
Department of General Services or other approved cooperative purchasing agreement
and associated contract dealers for two patrol vehicles, two administrative vehicles,
and four maintenance vehicles, for a total cost not to exceed$480,000.
2. Authorize the General Manager to execute a purchase contract with the State
Department of General Services or other approved cooperative purchasing agreement
and associated contract dealer for one tractor and mower and one replacement mower
for a total cost not to exceed $155,000.
SUMMARY
The District's five-year capital equipment schedule provides for two additional patrol vehicles,
two replacement administrative vehicles, four replacement maintenance trucks, one tractor with
mower, and one replacement mower. The vehicles being replaced will be decommissioned and
sold.
DISCUSSION
The District's ability to purchase vehicles through existing contract with the California
Department of General Services(CA DGS)provides a significant cost savings and greatly
reduces the amount of staff time that would otherwise be required if the District conducted a
separate bid process for each vehicle and piece of equipment.
If the required vehicles and equipment are not available thru CA DGS contracts, staff will
attempt to purchase using contacts from other approved cooperative purchasing agreements. If
no contracts are available that meets District needs, staff will return to the Board for
authorization to solicit bids directly from the manufacture.
R-13-34 Page 2
The two new patrol vehicles are for the two ranger positions that were approved in FY2012-13.
The four maintenance trucks will replace current maintenance vehicles that have reached the end
of their useful service life and will be sold at a public auction.
The tractor mower is an important piece of equipment for management of open space lands. It
will be used to maintain vegetation on District patrol roads and to reduce fuel loads as part of the
District's fire management program. Though the new tractor mower will be used throughout the
District, it will be used primarily in the Skyline area where the tractor will be housed. The
second mower is a replacement for a tractor mower purchased in 1995.
The funding for the purchase of these vehicles and equipment was included in the FY2013-14
budget (Report No. R-13-3 7), which was adopted by the Board at the March 20, 2013 Regular
Meeting.
FISCAL IMPACT
This purchase will not result in an increase in the budget. The FY2013-14 budget includes
$635,000 for the purchase of the subject field vehicles and equipment.
BOARD COMMITTEE REVIEW
There was no Committee review for this agenda item.
PUBLIC NOTICE
Public notice was provided as required by the Brown Act. No additional notice is required.
CEQA COMPLIANCE
No environmental review is required as the recommended action is not a project under the
California Environmental Quality Act(CEQA).
NEXT STEPS
If approved by the Board, staff will prepare purchase orders for the vehicles and equipment
utilizing the State of California Department of General Services contracts or other approved
cooperative procurement contract.

SUBJECT: Placement of Plaque Designating Gene Sheehan Overlook
At its November 27, 2012 meeting,the Legislative, Funding, and Public Affairs Committee
(LFPAC) approved the proposal to name the overlook informally called Rattlesnake Point on the
Ipiwa Trail section of the Ridge Trail in Skyline Ridge Open Space Preserve as"Gene Sheehan
Overlook" (Attachment 1), and to place a commemorative panel detailing Mr. Sheehan's
contributions and significance to the District's trail program(Attachment 2).
Former District Consultant Trail Builder Gene Sheehan passed away at his home in Oregon on
October 7, 2012. Mr. Sheehan is responsible for the layout and construction of numerous trails
throughout the District and also trained and mentored many District staff in the "Art of Trail
Building". Many of the elements he taught continue to be used by staff today.
Mr. Sheehan's children confirmed that Mr. Sheehan's favorite District trail was the 1piwa Trail
in Skyline Ridge Open Space Preserve and that his favorite spot on the trail was Rattlesnake
Point. The family and District staff requested that a commemorative plaque be placed at
Rattlesnake Point and that it be renamed "Gene Sheehan Overlook."
An event to honor Mr. Sheehan has been scheduled for April 27ffi, 2013, to which Mr. Sheehan's
family, friends and District staff are invited to attend. Based on LFPAC's review and direction
(see November 27, 2012 memo and meeting minutes attached), staff is currently assisting in
event preparations, including obtaining and coordinating implementation of the memorial plaque.
At the family's request, the District has issued a permit to scatter his ashes at the overlook during
the event.

MEMO TO: Legislative, Funding and Public Affairs Committee
THROUGH: Stephen E. Abbors, General Manager
FROM: David Sanguinetti, Operations Manager
SUBJECT: Authorization for District Staff to commemorate the contributions Gene Sheehan
made as District Consultant Trail Builder, by naming the location known internally
as"Rattlesnake Point" on the 1piwa Trail in Skyline Ridge Open Space Preserve,
"Gene Sheehan's Overlook and installing a commemorative plaque.
In October of 2012, Gene Sheehan passed away at his home in Oregon. Gene was a long time
Consultant Trail Builder for the District(approximately 1976 through 1999), and is responsible
for the layout and construction of numerous trails throughout the District. In addition, Gene
trained and mentored District staff in the "Art of Trail Building", many elements of which
continue to be used today in the building of District trails. Gene's legacy can be described as the
"Father"of what some say is the best constructed and maintained trail system in the state.
Through email communication with Gene's four children and District Ranger Kerry Carlson,
Operations Manager David Sanguinetti confirmed Gene's favorite trail was the 1piwa Trail at
Skyline Ridge Open Space Preserve, and his favorite spot on the trail was Rattlesnake Point.
Gene designed and built both while guiding District Field Staff in their construction practices.
During trail building season, Gene was known for taking after work walks out to Rattlesnake
Point—his favorite location on a District preserve, where he would stand and watch the sunset
with his"gal friends" as he would put it.
Based on the attached communication with his children, Russ, Janice, Ron, and April, it is their
and staffs desire to see Rattlesnake Point officially named, Gene Sheehan's Overlook and to
place an commemorative panel detailing Gene's significance to the District Trail Program and its
trail users.
NEXT STEPS
Upon Committee approval of staffs recommendations, staff will take the necessary steps to
install a commemorative plaque and the official naming of the 1piwa Trail overlook to Gene
Sheehan Overlook. Staff will also work with the family to provide the required permit to scatter
Gene's remains.

David,
Kerry straightened out the locations for me,so now I know that Dad wanted his ashes scattered from
Rattlesnake point.
So, in less words than my previous email:
I think it would be wonderful to name Rattlesnake Point "Gene Sheehan's Overlook" and hope a permit
to hold a Memorial Service there will be approved.
I'm sending a cc of this to my brothers and sister. Russ is in charge of naming the date for the service.
Thank you for looking after all this,
Janice Sheehan

Hi Dave, I really appreciate the effort and ideas that you have come up with. i don't think that Dad had
expected to be memorialised except in storytelling and sure that he would be as thrilled as i. He certainly
had a lot of memories of his time up at Mid Pen and the camaraderie that you all shared.
As to the timing of any ceremony(i am not sure that he wanted a big issue made)of scattering his ashes i
cannot give an exact date as i am in India on a project presently and cannot get a date approved until next
year but planing on late spring as of now. I should be able to solidify plans by March and will make sure
to give you all at least a months notice.
Again i really appreciate the effort that is being made, I hope that we can have some kind of get together
and swap a bunch of story's. I hope to get a bunch of his photos together to share by the time i get down
for whatever we all end up doing to carry out Dad's wish.

Hello David,
My sister,Janice,forwarded me a copy of the note between you and Kerry regarding the memorial
service etc. for my Dad,Gene Sheehan. If the plaque,and the renaming of the point to"Gene Sheehan's
Overlook"etc. is able to happen, it would be such an honor for us in the family and something I know
Dad would really get a kick out of.
On another note,sometime this spring I expect to have all of the old photos&videos etc. of Dad working
the machines on the trails which I will be attempting to catalogue,transfer to digital files,etc.
etc....would the openspace be interested in the originals(and/or copies)for historical purposes? I was
thinking there might are a lot of people who worked with Dad over the years(not to mention the ones
who have enjoyed the trails)who would enjoy seeing the work as it was in progress.
Sincerely,

El Sereno Open Space Preserve
330 Distal Circle
Los Altos, Ca. 94022 4/2/13
Hi Steve;
I wanted to thank you again for your phone call a few weeks ago, and
for taking the time to explain what is happening concerning our initiative to
change the "no dogs allowed" ruling on the El Sereno Open Space
Preserve. I have a much better appreciation for all that the concerns and
issues that the Board has to consider when making a policy change, even
one as minor as ours, and we are at least aware now of the comprehensive
plan for all the preserves being put together over the next 12 months or so.
As I promised, I relayed our conversation at the last homeowners meeting,
where we discussed the matter at length. We went over the concerns of
the Board, the problems you have encountered with this issue at the other
preserves and how they relate to our particular initiative. We hope to have
ideas and possibly some solutions to these problems in the coming
months, and we would like to address these at a future Board meeting. We
feel that this will not only give us a chance to help the initiative along, but
also give us, hopefully, a better relationship with the Board which could be
beneficial for everybody on future matters that my arise. To be truthful,
even though you assured me that our initiative would be logged into the
record and be one that will be continued to be addressed by the Board, it is
our collective belief that this is just the kind of issue that could easily be lost
among the myriad of matters that confront the Board as time goes by. As I
mentioned on the phone it is only natural that the Board would be more
likely remember the last issue they were confronted with, and not
necessarily an issue that was brought up months or even years before.
That is why we would like to keep our proposal in front of the Board, which
we hope to do by attending some future meetings though out the year.
Since we last talked, I have received a very nice letter from Cecily
Harris about this issue, and in it she stated they have added the the dog
use provision as part of the District-wideVision Plan that is currently being
created. We appreciate this, and hope we can do whatever we can to help
the Board in establishing this plan. On that note, she said that she has
added my name and contact information to the Vision Plan notification list,
and encouraged me to participate in the VisionPlan effort. I would very
much like to participate in the Plan, and if possible be a part of the
Community Advisory Committee, either alone or with other members of the
homeowner association. I will send a letter to her, and to Tina Hugg about
this matter, and hopefully we can work together on this in the future. Thank
you again for your phone call.

Local Agency Formation Commission of Santa Clara County
LAFCO MEETING: April 3, 2013
TO: LAFCO
FROM: Neelima Palacherla, Executive Officer
SUBJECT: PROPOSED LAFCO BUDGET FOR FISCAL YEAR 2014
STAFF RECOMMENDATION
1. Adopt the Proposed LAFCO Budget for Fiscal Year 2013-2014.
2. Find that the Proposed LAFCO Budget for Fiscal Year 2014 is expected to be
adequate to allow the Commission to fulfill its statutory responsibilities.
3. Authorize staff to transmit the Proposed LAFCO Budget adopted by the
Commission including the estimated agency costs as well as the LAFCO public
hearing notice on the adoption of the Fiscal Year 2014 Final Budget to the cities, to
the special districts, to the County, to the Cities Association and to the Special
Districts Association.
BACKGROUND
LAFCO Budget and Adoption Process
The Cortese Knox Hertzberg Local Government Reorganization Act of 2000 (CKH Act)
which became effective on January 1,2001,requires LAFCO to annually adopt a draft
budget by May 1 and a final budget by June 15 at noticed public hearings. Both the draft
and the final budgets are required to be transmitted to the cities, to the special districts
and to the County. Government Code§56381 (a) establishes that at a minimum, the
budget must be equal to that of the previous year unless the Commission finds that
reduced staffing or program costs will nevertheless allow it to fulfill its statutory
responsibilities. Any unspent funds at the end of the year may be rolled over into the
next fiscal year budget. After adoption of the final budget by LAFCO, the County
Auditor is required to apportion the net operating expenses of the Commission to the
agencies represented on LAFCO.
Apportionment of LAFCO Costs
In January 2013, independent special districts became represented on LAFCO. Government
Code§56381(b)(1)(A) provides that when independent special districts are seated on

ALTERNATE COMMISSIONERS: Johnny Khamis, Yoriko Kishimoto, Terry Trumbull, Cat Tucker
EXECUTIVE OFFICER: Neelima Palacherla
LAFCO, the county,cities and districts must each provide a one-third share of LAFCO's
operational budget.
The City of San Jose has permanent membership on LAFCO pursuant to Government
Code Section 56327. As required by Government Code§56381.6(b), the City of San Jose's
share of LAFCO costs must be in the same proportion as its member bears to the total
membership on the commission,excluding the public member. The remaining cities'
share must be apportioned in proportion to each city's total revenue,as reported in the
most recent edition of the Cities Annual Report published by the Controller,as a
percentage of the combined city revenues within a county.
Government Code Section 56381 provides that the independent special districts' share
shall be apportioned in proportion to each district's total revenues as a percentage of the
combined total district revenues within a county. The Santa Clara County Special
Districts Association (SDA),at its August 13, 2012 meeting,adopted an alternative
formula for distributing the independent special districts' share to individual districts.
The SDA's agreement requires each district's cost to be based on a fixed percentage of
the total independent special districts' share as depicted in the following table.
Independent Special Districts'Fixed Percentages for LAFCO Costs
Independent Special Districts Fixed Percentage as Established by
SDA Resolution Dated
(08/13/2012)
1 Aldercroft Heights County Water District 0.06233%
2 Burbank Sanitary District 0.15593%
3 Cupertino Sanitary District 2.64110%
4 El Camino Hospital District 4.90738%
5 Guadalupe Coyote Resource Conservation District 0.04860%
6 Lake Canyon Community Services District 0.02206%
7 Lion's Gate Community Services District 0.22053%
8 Loma Prieta Resource Conservation District 0.02020%
9 Midpeninsula Regional Open Space District 5.76378%
10 Purissima Hills Water District 1.35427%
11 Rancho Rinconada Recreation and Park District 0.15988%
12 San Martin County Water District 0.04431%
13 Santa Clara Open Space District 1.27051%
14 Santa Clara Valley Water District 81.44124%
15 Saratoga Cemetery District 0.32078%
16 Saratoga Fire Protection District 1.52956%
17 South Santa Clara Valley Memorial District 0.03752%
Total 100%
Page 2 of 9
The agreement allows any district by adopting a resolution declaring hardship, to
request the SDA to review and revise the allocation percentages. Additionally, the
agreement requires the SDA to review the percentages every five years (starting in July
1,2018) and determine if there is a desire by the majority of the independent special
districts to revise the allocation percentages for each district.
Therefore in Santa Clara County, the County pays a third of LAFCCI's operational costs,
the independent special districts pay a third, the City of San Jose pays one sixth and the
remaining cities pay one sixth. Government Code§56381(c) requires the County Auditor
to request payment from the cities,special districts and the County no later than July 1 of
each year for the amount each agency owes based on the net operating expenses of the
Commission and the actual administrative costs incurred by the Auditor in apportioning
costs and requesting payment.

STATUS OF CURRENT YEAR WORK PLAN AND BUDGET (FISCAL YEAR 2013)
The LAFCO Annual Report which will be published at the end of the current fiscal year
will document the types of applications processed and the various activities / projects
that LAFCO has completed in Fiscal Year 2013. Attachment A depicts the current status
of the work items/projects in the Fiscal Year 2013 Work Plan.
The adopted LAFCO budget for the current year is$766,607. It is projected that there
will be a savings of approximately $106,620 at the end of this Fiscal Year. Please note that
this amount excludes the$50,000 currently budgeted for reserves. The$50,000, together
with the$100,000 (held separately since Fiscal Year 2012),expected to be unused,will be
rolled over to the next year as is and maintained as the reserve.
Projected Year End Savings = Projected Year End Revenue - Projected Year End
Expenses-Budgeted Reserves
Projected Year End Savings = $816,270- $659,659 - $50,000
Page 3 of 9
Projected Year End Savings = $106,620
This year end savings is a result of: 1) the actual fund balance from Fiscal Year 2012
being approximately $35,000 ($208,315 - $173,047) more than projected and,2) earning
slightly higher revenue and having lower expenditures than budgeted amounts. The
estimated savings of$106,620 at the end of the current Fiscal Year 2013 will be carried
over to reduce the proposed Fiscal Year 2014 costs for the cities,districts and the County.
Please see Attachment B for table showing status of LAFCO Budget for Fiscal Year 2013.

PROPOSED FISCAL YEAR 2013-2014 BUDGET
At its February 6,2013 LAFCO meeting, the Commission appointed Commissioners
Wasserman,Constant and Hall, to the LAFCO Finance Committee. The Commission

agenda packets for LAFCO meetings,process for establishing Executive Officer
performance evaluation and salary ranges for all LAFCO staff, the proposed work plan

opportunities for building partnerships to achieve common goals.
4. Recommended the proposed budget for FY 2013-2014 (see Attachment D). A
detailed itemization of the proposed budget,as recommended by the Finance
Committee is provided below.
OBJECT 1. SALARIES AND BENEFITS $421,194
All three LAFCO staff positions are staffed through the County Executive's Office. There
is no change in the proposed salaries for the LAFCO staff. The cost of benefits is based
on the most current information available from the County. Any changes made to this
item by the County in the next few months will be reflected in the Final LAFCO budget.
OBJECT 2. SERVICES AND SUPPLIES
5258200 INTRA-COUNTY PROFESSIONAL $45,000
This amount includes costs for services from the County Surveyor's Office and the
County Assessors' Office.

addition, the Surveyor's Office will also assist with research to resolve boundary
discrepancies. It is estimated that 250 to 300 hours of service will be required in the
next fiscal year. The County Surveyor's Office estimates a rate of$133 per hour for
FY 2014.
Miscellaneous Staffing $5,000
This amount pays for the cost of reports prepared by the County Assessor's Office

automatic adjustment in the rates based on the Consumer Price Index (CPI). The

Consumer Price Index for the prior calendar year 2012.

This is an amount established by the County Controller's Office, for service rendered by
various County departments that do not directly bill LAFCO. The overhead includes

processing applications. The actual amount earned from fees is not within LAFCO
control and depends entirely on the level of application activity.
4301100 INTEREST $5,000
It is estimated that LAFCO will receive an amount of about$5,000 from interest
earned on LAFCO funds.
4. RESERVES
3400800 RESERVES $150,000
This item includes reserves for two purposes: litigation reserve—for use if LAFCO is
involved with any litigation and contingency reserve - to be used for unexpected
expenses. If used during the year, this account will be replenished in the following year.
LAFCO has not had to use the reserves and the amount has been rolled over to the
following year to offset costs. Since 2012, the reserves have been retained in a separate
Reserves account, thus eliminating the need for LAFCO to budget each year for this
purpose. LAFCO currently retains$150,000 in reserves separate from operating
expenses. No additional funds are budgeted for this purpose in FY 2014.
COST APPORTIONMENT TO CITIES AND COUNTY
Calculation of Net Operating Expenses
FY 2014 Net Operating Expenses=Proposed FY 2014 Expenditures—Proposed FY 2014 Fee Revenues
—Projected FY 2013 Year End Savings
FY 2013 Net Operating Expenses = $734,624- $30,000- $106,620
FY 2013 Net Operating Expenses = $598,004
The proposed net operating expense for FY 2014 is approximately 6% higher than that of
the current year.
Please note that the projected operating expenses for FY 2014 are based on projected
savings and expenses for the current year and are not actual figures. It is therefore to be
expected that there may be revisions to the budget as we get a better indication of
Page 8 of 9
current year expenses towards the end of this fiscal year. Additionally,a more accurate
projection of costs for the upcoming fiscal year could be made available by the County,
particularly as they relate to employee benefits. This could result in changes to the
proposed net operating expenses for FY 2014 which could in turn impact the costs for
each of the agencies.
As mentioned previously,special districts became represented on LAFCO in January
2013. Therefore the 17 independent special districts will be charged a pro-rated amount
of the annual cost for the current Fiscal Year 2013. These costs are depicted in
Attachment F. The pro-rated costs for each individual special district (for the 6 months
of Fiscal Year 2013) will be added to each district's FY 2014 share of LAFCO cost. The
County and the cities will receive a corresponding credit which will also be reflected in
their FY 2014 share of LAFCO cost.
The following is a draft apportionment to the agencies based on the proposed net
operating expenses for FY 2014 ($598,004).
Cost to Agencies
County of Santa Clara $199,334
City of San Jose $99,667
Remaining 14 Cities in the County $99,667
17 Independent Special Districts $199,334
Apportionment of the costs among the 14 cities and among the 17 independent special
districts will be calculated by the County Controller's Office after LAFCO adopts the
final budget in June. A draft of the estimated apportionment to the cities and special
districts is included as Attachment E in order to provide the cities and districts a general
indication of the costs.

LAOA. Brief History of Voting Requirements for
Local Taxes
70 YEARS OF SFRVICE.
QFor Most of California's History, Local Governments Could
Raise a Tax by a Vote of the Governing Board.
QSu
pport for Voter-Approval Requirements. Beginning in
1978, voters approved a series of constitutional amendments
that established voter-approval requirements for new local taxes.
■ Proposition 13(1978). Greatly constrained local government
ability to raise property tax rates and required all new local
government"special taxes" to be approved by two-thirds of
voters.
■ Proposition 62(1986) and Proposition 218(1996).
Required new "general taxes" to be approved by majority
of voters. Extended voter-approval requirements to other
property-related levies not covered by Proposition 13.
■ Proposition 26(2010). Broadened the definition of "tax"
to include some levies previously considered fees or
charges, resulting in a wider application of voter-approval
requirements.
Two Measures Relaxed Restrictions for New Taxes.
Following the passage of Proposition 13, two measures
relaxed restrictions on property tax increases to repay local
infrastructure bonds.
■ Proposition 46(1986). Allowed property tax rates to
be increased above the 1 percent rate to finance
infrastructure bond debt with approval of two-thirds of voters.
■ Proposition 39(2000). Lowered voter-approval threshold for
most school facilities bond debt to 55 percent.

70 YFARS OF SERVICE
Proposition 13 Did Not Define Special Tax. Proposition 13
required two-thirds voter approval for all new special taxes, but
did not specifically define the term.
r_X
M Court Defined Special Tax. In 1982, the California Supreme
Court found that special taxes are those used for a specified
purpose.
Proposition 218 Added Definition of Special Tax to the State
Constitution. Proposition 218 added the following provisions to
the Constitution:
m All taxes levied by local governments are either special taxes
or general taxes.
m Special taxes are those imposed for a specified purpose,
even if the proceeds are deposited in an agency's general
fund.
m All taxes levied by a single purpose district (such as a school
district or special district) are special taxes.

Mi Voter-Approval Requirements Vary. California's current
system of voter-approval requirements varies considerably
based on the:
• Type of local government raising the revenue.
• Choice of revenue mechanism—such as a property tax,
other tax, fee, or assessment.
• Use of the revenues and authority of the local government
to change that use.

LAO Thinking About Changes to
Voter-Approval Requirements
_-ZIX
70 YEARS OF SERVICE
No Single "Right"Approval Process for Local Taxes.
Approval processes for local tax measures vary across states.
Many states do not require local tax measures to be approved
by local voters.
Voter-Approval Requirements Should Follow Some Basic
Principles. Ideally, a states requirements for approving local tax
measures should be easy for residents to understand and reflect
overarching objectives regarding local resident involvement in
local taxation decisions. California's voter-approval process for
local tax measures is (1) complex and (2) does not appear to
follow any particular set of unifying principles.
Questions for Legislative Consideration. In evaluating
potential changes to California's voter-approval requirements,
we suggest the state begin by considering what objectives
voter-approval requirements are intended to fulfill and evaluate
potential changes based on whether or not they serve these
purposes. Some questions for the state to consider include:
n Should voter-approval requirements vary based on the use
of the revenue?
w Should voter-approval requirements vary across local
governments?
s How should voter-approval requirements for revenues
measures to repay infrastructure bonds or other long-term
debt differ from requirements for revenues raised for local
government operations, if at all?
m What objectives does the existing distinction between
general taxes and special taxes achieve?

RE: Permit to Operate Conditions ID#s 2786 and 11780
S02 and NOx Emission Compliance Data Monthly Report for December 2012
Submitted electronically to CEMS Monthly BAAQMD.gov
To Whom It May Concern:
Please find attached the compiled S02 and NO,average concentration and daily mass emission rate compliance data
for the Lehigh Southwest Cement Company — Permanente facility PTO Condition ID #s 2786 and 11780 for the
month of December 2012. PTO Condition ID #s 2786 Item A.I and A.4 Gaseous Emission Limitation states the
following:
Item A.I - The maximum allowable emission of sulfur dioxide shall be the more stringent of(i) that
accomplished by the rejection of 90%of the sulfur in the raw feed plus fuel,assuming,but not
requiring,0.6%sulfur coal as the fuel,averaged over a 24 hour day;OR(ii)481 lbs/hour also
averaged over the same 24 hour day.
Item AA- As to the alternative limitation of 481 lbs/hr, so long as the coal mill emissions are not
monitored, SO, emissions from the kiln mill shall not exceed 423 lbs/hr, and from the coal
mill 58 lbs/hr.
PTO Condition ID# 11780 Item C.I Emission Limits states the following:
Item C.1.- The maximum allowable emission rate for nitrogen oxides from all kiln emission points shall
not exceed both (i) 1,158 lbs/hr and (ii) a maximum concentration of 615 ppm (dry basis)
without correction for oxygen,both measured as an average over a 2 hour period.
For Condition ID#2786 and# 11780, there were no variances or exceedences of the permit conditions cited above
for the reporting calendar month.

Background
Lehigh Cement operates a precalciner Portland cement kiln rated at 1,497,000 metric tons
of clinker per year(4535 metric TPD) in Cupertino, CA. Actual operation is roughly 6897 hrs/yr
and a total 1,399,692 tons of clinker per year. The kiln, shown in Figure 1, was placed into
service in 1981. Its primary air pollution control device has been a reverse-air fabric filter for
dust collection which has compartments vented to the atmosphere. Gaseous emissions(NOx,
CO, SO2) and flow are monitored from some of the 32 vents on the fabric filter or in the
ductwork. There is also a fabric filter on the clinker cooler.
The kiln is subject to US EPA's National Emission Standards for Hazardous Air
Pollutants(NESHAP), which requires installation of Maximum Achievable Control Technology
(MACT)by August 2015 as well as Bay Air Quality Management District(BAQMD) rules.
Recently proposed BAQMD Regulation 9, Rule 13 sets limits shown below along with
monitoring requirements.
• 2.3 pounds NOx per ton of clinker produced averaged over 30 days
* 0.04 pounds PM per ton of clinker produced averaged over 3 source test runs
• 10 ppmv ammonia above baseline, dry at 7%oxygen averaged over 24 hours.
• 0.2 nanograms Dioxins/Furans (TEQ) per standard cubic meter, dry at 7% oxygen
averaged over 24 hours
• 55 pounds Mercury per million tons of clinker produced averaged over 30 days
• 3 ppmv HCI, dry at 7%oxygen averaged over 30 days
• 24 ppmv Total Hydrocarbons (THC), dry at 7% oxygen averaged over 30 days, or
alternatively, 12 ppmv Total Organic HAP, dry at 7%oxygen averaged over 30 days.
These limits have motivated Lehigh to install additional controls. Controls that have
been installed or will soon be installed include: selective non-catalytic reduction(SNCR) for
NOx control, activated carbon injection (ACI) for mercury and dioxin control, lime injection
(LSI) for acid gas control, mercury monitoring, modifications to the dust collector and
modifications to the vents to reduce the number of monitoring points and a 300 foot chimney.

Program Results
The Lehigh Cement plant is a 1981 vintage precalciner cement plant that has baghouses
as its sole pollution control devices. The kiln baghouse, which is integral to the Kiln Mill Dust
Collector KMDC system, is used to collect kiln dust that is recycled back to the kiln pyro
system. Recycling cement kiln dust in this manner reduces solid waste that might otherwise
have to be disposed of and also more efficiently utilizes feed materials. The mill recently
installed a KMDC shuttling system that bleeds some of the kiln dust from the pyro system,
which has the benefit of reducing mercury emissions. Table I shows average 2010 emissions
compared to the new BAAQMD limits that will take effect in September 2013 and the New or
Modified Source NSPS and the New Source NESHAP limits. Another source of PM emissions
is the clinker cooler baghouse, although this is not a source of other gaseous emissions.
To meet the new emission limits, Lehigh plans to (or has recently) install(ed)the
following:
• One activated carbon injection system for mercury (Hg) control
• A hydrated lime injection(LSI) system for HCl control
• A selective non-catalytic reduction(SNCR) system for NOx control
• A 300 foot chimney to improve dispersion of pollutant gases

Executive Summary of Results
In reading the results of this report it is important to consider that this was a high level
study that did not perform detailed engineering analysis. The objective was to examine if there
are any technical options for additional reductions that might be examined further or if there are
emission reductions that could be had at low or no cost that may not yet be reflected in the
permit. This is not intended to "second guess"the work that others have done so far, but to look
for opportunities that may be available for additional reductions, and when additional reductions
will require significantly more cost, to explain why.
It is my opinion that improvements(reduction) in the emission limits for the Lehigh
Cement plant might be possible for the following pollutants and at the following cost.
NOx
Some improvement in the NOx emission limit may be possible through the following means:
• SNCR emission reduction will vary, but is roughly 50% on average for cement kilns. It
may be possible to achieve slightly lower NOx emissions than 2.3 lb/ton clinker. This
would not require any additional capital cost, but would entail modest additional
operating cost.
• Mixing Air Technology—This could potentially improve emissions somewhat at a capital
cost of roughly $520,000. It can also improve CO and SO2 emissions.
• Use of natural gas in the precalciner— It is not possible at this time to determine the
capital cost,but it would likely be quite modest since gas is already fired for start up.
The increase in operating cost would result from the differential cost in fuel. This would
also contribute to a modest reduction in PM and SO2 emissions.
For this reason I believe that there are a few options to examine that might offer low capital
cost approaches to a reduction in NOx emission rate to perhaps about 2.0 lb/ton clinker or
less.
SO2
The use of lime injection for control of HCl will also reduce SO2 emissions. This is not
currently captured in the emission limit of the plant. It would be reasonable to expect
roughly 50% reduction in SO2 emissions with the roughly 75% reduction in HCI emissions.
These emission reductions are available at no additional cost beyond what is committed to
for compliance with the NESHAP limit for HCI.
Mercury
Current plans are to use activated carbon injection and a bleed of kiln dust to reduce
mercury emissions. It is my opinion that achieving the new or modified source Hg emission
rate of 21 lb/million ton clinker would likely require either an additional baghouse(at a
substantial capital cost)or bleed of nearly all of the kiln dust. I do not know what the
economic impact of bleeding 100%of the kiln dust would equate to, but it might make it
necessary to landfill some of the kiln dust because there are limits to how much kiln dust
may be used in the final cement product. For this reason significant additional reductions in
emissions beyond the limit for existing kilns(55 lb/million ton clinker) cannot be achieved
without a substantial additional capital investment.
www.AndoverTechnoloay.com
PM
BAAQMD has established an emission limit of 0.04 lb/ton clinker, and this is being
challenged by Lehigh Cement. The 2010 emissions rate was well below this limit(0.014
versus 0.04 lb/ton clinker) and therefore the limit appears to be achievable already.
Although addition of lime injection and activated carbon injection will result in a slight
increase in the solids loading to the kiln baghouse, these generally have negligible impacts
on outlet emissions for a fabric filter. It is recommended that some form of continuous
monitoring be used for PM emissions—either in the form of opacity monitoring or a PM
CEMS.
In the following sections, more detailed examination of each of these pollutants will be
provided which will describe why these conclusions were reached.

1.0 NOx Emissions
NOx emissions from cement kilns are primarily the result of the combustion of fuel in the
kiln. To a lesser extent they are related to nitrogen compounds in the feed material. Feed
materials may also play a role in impacting NOx through the pyroprocessing necessary for the
particular feed materials. Figures 1 and 2 show NOx emissions (in lb/ton clinker) for precalciner
kilns based upon year on line and annual clinker capacity,respectively. The data is based upon
2002 National Emissions Inventory(NEI) data and capacity data from the Portland Cement
Association(PCA). As shown,there is significant scatter in the data with a handful of outliers;2
however, some trends can be observed. For precalciner kilns that commenced operation in the
time frame of the Lehigh Cupertino kiln, emission rates average around 3.5 lb/ton clinker. For
facilities in the size range of the Lehigh Cupertino plant, emission rates average around 2-3
lb/ton clinker. At roughly 4.0 lb/ton of clinker(the average for January—June 2012),the Lehigh
Cupertino kiln is somewhat above average. The new BAA MD limit will be 2.3 lb/ton of
p g Q
clinker, which is less than 50% reduction of NOx.

1.1 Reducing the amount of NOx formed
Combustion occurs in two places in a precalciner cement kiln: 1)the precalciner section;
and 2)the rotary kiln.
Roughly 60%of the fuel is burned in the precalciner of a modem precalciner cement kiln.
For older kilns this amount may be less, perhaps in the range of 50%. Because the precalciner
combustion is at a lower temperature, most of the NOx formed in the precalciner is fuel NOx.
In the rotary kiln, thermal NOx plays a more significant role in total NOx formation because of
the higher temperature. Methods to control NOx formation are described in more detail below:
Rotary Kiln -
Low NOx Burner with Indirect Firing
The primary burner in the rotary kiln typically fires coal,petroleum coke, or natural gas.
In some kilns (not in the Cupertino kiln) alternative fuels(such as tires, solvents, or other waste
materials)may also be burned in the rotary kiln, but not through the primary burner. Because
thermal NOx plays an important role in NOx formation in the rotary kiln, coal is actually
preferred to natural gas from the perspective of NOx control. Natural gas requires firing to a
higher gas temperature to heat the materials because the flame is not as luminous. As a result, a
conversion to natural gas is unhelpful with respect to NOx control.
The primary burner utilizes an indirect firing system, where the pulverized fuel (coal or
coke) is not sent directly from the fuel mill to the burner, but to an intermediate fuel bin and
feeder system. The advantage of indirect firing for NOx control is that it permits lower primary
air levels in the near burner field, which reduces the amount of NOx formed when using a burner
that permits lower excess air for lower NOx (this is also known as a low NOx burner with
indirect firing). Based upon discussions with BAAQMD'4the Lehigh kiln is equipped with
indirect firing. So, further reductions by this method are not possible.
Mid Kiln Firing(MKT,)
MKF is when fuel is introduced to the rotary kiln at the mid-point of the kiln. Although
tires are commonly introduced in this manner,5 coal, coke or other fuel may also be introduced at
this point. MK_F has been shown to reduce NOx emissions in the rotary kiln on the order of
30%, and sometimes more. This is possible because it reduces the amount of firing needed in the
4 Telephone call with Robert Cave and Thu Bui, 1/10/13

primary burner, thereby reducing NOx formation at the hottest part of the kiln where thermal
NOx formation is the highest. The Lehigh kiln does not employ MKF.
Mixing Air Technology (MAT)
MAT is the introduction of burnout air downstream of the primary burner or downstream
of MKF. With MAT it is possible to operate the primary burner and MKF at lower excess
oxygen levels, thereby reducing the formation of NOx. MAT also offers the potential for lower
CO emissions and lower S02 emissions (through promotion of sulfate formation and the CaSO4
reaction)because it can promote a more oxidizing environment. MAT can reduce NOx
emissions by roughly 30%and it can be used to enhance NOx reduction from other technologies
such as a low NOx burner with indirect firing. The Lehigh kiln does not employ MAT.

for both the fuel rich zone and the burnout zone. This apparently was considered at the Lehigh
Cement plant but was ruled out due to cost, estimated at roughly$15-$20 million.8 Table 2

Fuel Change in Precalciner
Because most NOx formed in the precalciner is fuel NOx,NOx may be reduced though
fuel changes to natural gas. The level of NOx reduction will depend upon a number of variables
relating to how the facility is currently operated, but since up to 60% of the fuel is typically
burned in the precalciner, a significant reduction may be possible. This will also reduce SO2 and
PM emissions. The capital cost would likely be fairly modest since the plant already bums
natural gas. The operating cost will depend upon the difference in fuel cost between natural gas
and coal or other fuel (pet coke)burned in the precalciner.
1.2 Post Combustion NOx Control Methods
There are two methods of post combustion NOx control, Selective Catalytic Reduction
(SCR) and Selective Non-Catalytic Reduction(SNCR)
There is very little experience with SCR on cement kilns, and utilizing this technology at
Lehigh Cement would be costly and will not be examined further.
Lehigh Cement is planning to install an SNCR system. SNCR systems are capable of
roughly 50%NOx reduction on cement kilns, although there may be some variation from kiln to
kiln.
1.3 Options for NOx reduction at Lehigh Cement Cupertino
The facility already has committed to reduce NOx emissions to 2.3 lb/ton clinker from
roughly 4 lb/ton clinker.9 It may be possible that a lower emission limit could be justified, but it
would not be dramatically lower since NOx reduction of 50% would be about 2.0 lb/ton clinker.
This would not require any additional capital cost, but would require a modest amount of
additional reagent. Assuming urea as a reagent, $600/ton of urea and 35% chemical utilization,
the incremental cost is about $Ij 00/ton of NOx controlled.
Other options for NOx reduction that are moderate in cost may include mixing air
technology and perhaps burning natural gas in the precalciner. Mixing Air Technology
equipment and installation is estimated to cost roughly $520,000 in 2008 dollars, or$52 1,000 if
9 A review of source test data showed a ran of emission rates. 4 lb/ton clinker is the average for 2010.
www.AndoverTechnology.com
it
escalated to August 2012 using the Chemical Engineering Plant Cost Index (CEPCI). 10 In
addition, there would be an allowance for down-time on the kiln necessary to install the
equipment. Recent operating data shows 6897 hours per year of operation, which means that
installation of mixing air technology would likely be possible without impact to kiln operation.
Utilizing natural gas in the precalciner(but not in the rotary kiln, however) could
possibly be performed with little or no capital expense, depending upon the current design of the
precalciner burners and the natural gas supply to the kiln.
A more expensive approach for reducing NOx is perhaps Mid Kiln Firing(MKF). Using
the cost estimating approach used in US EPA's ISIS model 11, the capital cost can be estimated as
roughly$4.5 million(2005 dollars) or using the CEPCI to escalate to August 2012 dollars $5.6
million, to provide a roughly 30% reduction in NOx. The MKF system includes mixing air
technology. Because of the cost and the fact that tires would not be burned to reduce fuel costs,
MKF is not a technology that is likely to provide reductions at low cost.
In summary, I believe it may be possible to find ways to achieve a somewhat lower NOx
emissions, of perhaps 2.0 lb/ton of clinker or less, without a large capital outlay. But, large
reductions in NOx emissions are not possible without a significant capital outlay. Although
some of these methods, such as mixing air technology, are expected to provide 30%reduction on
average, in those cases where other measures have already been taken to reduce NOx, the
emission reduction may be less than 30%. So, from the perspective of establishing an emission
limit we might not want to take the full 30%. It is unclear what the impact would be on fuel cost
to bum natural gas in the precalciner and the level of NOx reduction is also unclear at this point.

2.0 S02 Emissions
S02 emissions are primarily released by the raw materials as they are heated. Most of the
sulfur in the fuel is captured in the product as the flue gas from the kiln comes in contact with
free lime in the precalciner. For this reason the sulfur in the raw materials has a significant
impact on the S02 emissions. The kiln type also has an impact. As a precalciner kiln,the S02
emissions are lower than for long kilns(kilns without a separate preheater)because the S02
released by the raw materials comes in good contact with the alkaline material in the preheater
and calciner. As shown in Figure 5, which shows average Portland Cement kiln S02 emissions
as a function of market location and kiln type, S02 emissions from Portland cement kilns in the
San Francisco market as EPA has defined it in development of the NESHAP 12 are generally
lower than in other markets. This is no doubt a result of the sulfur content of the raw materials.

Since it is not practical to change raw materials, especially limestone, reducing S02

planned for HCI control, and scrubbers. Because of the high capital Cost Of S02 scrubbers, they
will not be examined.
Reduction Of S02 emissions is a cobenefit of the planned HCI control approach—lime
injection. Experience with lime injection has demonstrated that it captures HCI somewhat more
efficiently than SO2. This is because HCI is a more reactive acid. Thus, a 75%capture rate for
HCI with lime injection 14 will result in an S02 capture rate that is somewhat lower than 75%.
There are a number of factors that impact this, such as injection temperature and the relative
concentrations of HCI to S02; however, an SO2 removal rate of 50% seems like a reasonable
estimate of the likely S02 emission reduction if the HCI emission reduction is in the range of
75%. The actual S02 emission reduction can be verified once the lime injection system is
installed. At this time this improvement in SO2 emissions is not captured in the plant's emission
limit, and therefore, these reductions in S02 emissions are at no cost since they are a cobenefit of
the HCI reduction system.
The ambient S02 levels should also be improved by the new 300 foot chimney. So,
between the reduction in S02 emission rate and the impact of the chimney, ambient SO2 levels
should see an improvement.
S02 is therefore an area where there will be some significant gains as a result of what is
already planned for HCI control. For this reason a significantly lower SO2 limit could likely be
implemented with little or no cost to the Lehigh Cupertino cement plant. My review of
emissions tests since 2007 confirm that at the moment, S02 emissions tend to be well below the
current emission limit of 481 lb/hr.
14 75%is roughly what is expected for HCI based upon past HCI levels and the required emission rate per the new
Portland cement NESHAP.

3.0 Mercury Emissions
Mercury that is emitted from the chimney comes from mercury contained in the fuel and
mercury contained in raw materials. A simple mass balance will show that mercury that
originates in the fuel or the raw materials must go into the product, become a solid waste, or go
up the chimney, but the mass balance in the process is complicated by the fact that mercury at
high temperatures is volatilized. Figure 6 demonstrates the complexity of the mercury mass
balance. The high temperature pyroprocessing necessary to make clinker ensures that the
mercury is in a vapor state and does not become part of the clinker. As a result, mercury
captured in cement kiln dust that is returned to the kiln for pyroprocessing eventually goes up the
chimney, and the mercury emissions to the air equals the mercury introduced by the fuel and raw
materials.15 This returned mercury actually contributes to a concentrating mechanism that will
result in more mercury actually being circulated through the kiln in any period of time than
actually is input in that time. This concentrating mechanism is a function of the degree to which
the mercury that enters the kiln dust collector(baghouse)passes through the kiln dust collector
(and into the atmosphere)or gets returned to the kiln. If, for example, half of the mercury that
enters the baghouse exits the baghouse with the exhaust gas and the other half ends up in the kiln
dust, then the mercury returned to the kiln must equal the amount of mercury that is introduced
from fuel and raw materials as well as the mercury that is released up the chimney.
The mercury capture plan for the Lehigh Cement plant involves capturing the mercury
that is in the cement kiln dust in the baghouse. Activated carbon injected upstream of the kiln
dust collector will increase the proportion of mercury that ends up in the kiln dust. A portion of
the cement kiln dust is then bled off from the kiln dust collector and not reintroduced to the kiln
— it might be disposed in a landfill16 but it is preferably used in the concrete product.1 7 This
reduces the amount of mercury that is sent back to the kiln, as in Figure 7. If all of the kiln dust
were reintroduced to the kiln, then the mercury entering the kiln dust collector would increase to
the point where there would be no actual reduction in mercury emissions to the atmosphere. So,
bleeding off some portion of the kiln dust is necessary to achieve a reduction in mercury
emissions to the atmosphere. The percent reduction in mercury emissions to the atmosphere will
15 In fact,this is how the cement kiln NESHAP limit was developed--by measurement of mercury in the input
materials rather than by stack tests because more and better data was available on the mercury inputs. This
also assumes all kiln dust is readmitted to the kiln,which is a good assumption for most Portland cement
kilns.
16 This is a safe way to dispose of it,because lots of testing has shown that the mercury is immobilized.
17 CALTRANS permits up to 5%limestone or kiln dust in the cement product

therefore depend upon both the capture efficiency of the activated carbon system and the amount
of kiln dust that is not reintroduced to the kiln.

Another option is to have a second dust collector(baghouse) downstream of the primary
kiln dust collector, with an activated carbon injection system between the two dust collectors, as
shown in Figure 8. The second dust collector does not need to be as large as the primary dust
collector since it is only for capturing activated carbon. This would avoid the need to bleed off a
portion of the kiln dust from the primary kiln dust collector and would also allow for higher
www.AndoverTechnology.com
mercury capture rates. It would also likely result in lower PM emission rates since there are two
dust collectors. The disadvantage of this approach is that it has a significantly higher capital cost
and requires operation of two dust collectors—each of which has a pressure drop and requires a
booster fan and the associated electrical load. But, a significant advantage to this approach is
that there is no concern about mercury or activated carbon contamination in the product.

Reducing mercury emissions from the current rate of roughly 305 lb/million ton clinker
to 55 lb/million ton of clinker is an 82% reduction in mercury. By my estimates, this could be
achieved using the single kiln dust collector by
• An 82% capture rate of mercury by activated carbon, and a bleed of 100% of the kiln dust
from the kiln dust collector, or,
• a 90% capture rate of mercury by activated carbon and a bleed of roughly 51% of the kiln
dust, or
• a 95% capture rate of mercury by activated carbon and a bleed of roughly 24% of the kiln
dust, or
• A 97% capture rate of mercury by activated carbon and a bleed of 14% of the kiln dust
from the kiln dust collector, or
• some other combination of capture efficiency and bleed of the kiln dust that will result in
a net 82% capture efficiency

On the other hand, reducing mercury emissions from the current rate of roughly 305
lb/million ton clinker to 21 lb/million ton of clinker is just over 93% reduction in mercury. By
my estimates, this could be achieved using the single kiln dust collector by:
• A 93% capture rate of mercury by activated carbon, and a bleed of 100% of the kiln dust
from the kiln dust collector, or,
• A 95%capture rate of mercury by activated carbon and a bleed of 70% of the kiln dust
from the kiln dust collector, or
• A 97% capture rate of mercury by activated carbon and a bleed of 41% of the kiln dust
from the kiln dust collector, or
• some other combination of capture efficiency and bleed of the kiln dust that will result in
a net 93%capture efficiency
So, higher activated carbon injection system capture efficiencies will result in lower
bleed rates. Higher activated carbon injection system capture efficiencies are achieved through
higher activated carbon injection rates; however, activated carbon injection systems have
practical limitations to the level of emission reduction that is possible. There is no accepted
industry-wide number for this. It is my opinion that something above 90% mercury capture with
activated carbon can reliably be achieved, but it is less certain if capture efficiencies of 95% or
greater can reliably be achieved day in and day out.18 Therefore, a mercury emission limit equal
to the New Source limit of 21 lb/million tons of clinker would likely be possible only with a
second baghouse or with bleeding nearly all of the kiln dust. As will be shown in the next
section, a second,polishing baghouse would cost in the range of$20-$24 million.
Lehigh Cement's current plans do not include another baghouse. They are modifying the
structure of the kiln and clinker cooler baghouses and the vents to form a common exit location
that will be ducted to a 300 foot chimney, and according to the BAAQMD Staff Summary
Report, the estimated cost for this modification to the kiln mill dust collector and modifications
to the clinker cooler dust collector is roughly$28.5 million. 9
18 This is not to say that it can't be done; however,there simply is not a lot of published data available for long-term
operation of activated carbon systems at such high capture efficiencies. Moreover,the measurement
methods have been evolving as well. So,with time there should be more information available to assess
whether or not very high capture rates of over 95%can reliably be achieved.

4.0 Particulate Matter(PM)
There are two sources of PM—the kiln baghouse and the clinker cooler baghouse. At
this time the plant continues to operate the existing kiln baghouse(the primary fabric filter) and
the clinker cooler baghouse. According to BAAQMD, the facility has been able to maintain PM
emissions below the new rate of 0.04 lb/ton clinker and my review of several stack testing
reports confirms that.20 1 have not been able to determine the details of the filter media.
Assuming that the fabric filter uses"state of the art"21 filter media, the only alternatives for
further PM reductions are: 1) a polishing fabric filter(usually used to capture sorbent, such as
activated carbon), or; 2) improved monitoring of the existing fabric filter to assure that periods of
high PM emissions (such as from leaks in filter media) are quickly identified and corrected.
4.1 Polishing Fabric Filter
This is really something what would be considered to gain other benefits, such as higher
mercury removal,but the cost is shown in any event. The estimated cost of a polishing 22 pulse-
jet fabric filter that could be used to capture the activated carbon as well as PM that escapes the
primary fabric filter is shown in Table 3. Assumptions used in this estimate are:
0 360,000 dscfm
* 10%moisture
* Net Air to cloth ratio of 6.0 23
* Gas temperature of 320°F
0 Duct runs of 50 feet each way(short ductwork) and 220 feet each way(long ductwork)
As a result of the high cost of a new fabric filter shown in Table 3, this is not an attractive
option for reducing PM emissions.
20 1 reviewed stack test reports from 2007 to 2012 made available by BAAQMD through a Public Records request.
" Based upon what BAAQMD reports they have been told by the plant. See Footnote 4
22 Used after the current,primary baghouse that removes most particulate matter and it therefore has a much higher
23 air to cloth ratio than the primary baghouse.

4.2 PM Monitoring Options
PM emissions are currently measured with periodic stack tests rather than continuously,
and the final EPA NESHAP for Portland Cement kilns only requires periodic stack tests.25
Periods of high PM emissions may result from leaks in filter media or plant transients that cause
unusually high PM excursions that are not captured during the periodic stack tests that are
performed when the plant is generally well controlled. Continuous monitoring will enable plant
personnel to quickly identify temporary periods of high PM emissions and address any problems
that cause these temporary high PM emissions. Options for providing improved PM emissions
assurance include:
0 Opacity monitors—these measure the optical density or transparency of the flue gas
typically in percent and provide a relative indication of PM emissions. They have
been widely used for providing an indication of PM emissions. The output of these
24 Andover Technology Partners,"TOXECON Cost Estimates for Coal-Fired Boilers"DRAFT,December 2006
25 This is a revision from the proposed rule that required PM CEMS. The decision was based upon ability to
correlate emissions against stack samples for very low emitting sources.
www.AndoverTechnology.com
devices are in terms of percentage of optical transmittance. Because they do not
correlate as directly to the PM emission rate as PM CEMS, PM CEMS have become
favored recently, at least for power plants. BAAQMD has recommended an opacity
limit Of 10%.26 Therefore, an opacity monitor should be required as a minimum
measure for monitoring PM emissions.
• PM CEMS—more recently, EPA has been requiring PM CEMS for power plants.
These can provide an output that is directly correlated to PM emissions concentration
(such as milligram per actual cubic meter) and are therefore favored for measuring
PM emissions. The originally proposed Portland cement NESHAP required PM
CEMS but the final rule did not.
• Bag leak detectors—While not used for compliance reporting, these are used by
facility owners to quickly identify leaking filter media.
As a result, opacity monitoring should be required as a minimum, with PM CEMS to be
examined further. Based upon conversations that I have had with some CEMS suppliers, a PM-
CEMS is expected to cost in the range of$200,000 to cover equipment, installation, and start up
testing/calibration. Opacity monitors will cost a fraction of that.
