EXPLANATION:
1The Department of Toxic Substances Control ("DTSC") is a qualified State environmental regulator
which has been working with the City to understand the site conditions at the Westside Infill Transit
Oriented Development ("WI-TOD") site since 2008. Now that the site conditions are understood and
remediation planning is underway, a formal agreement is necessary to provide funding to DTSC
toxicologists to review the plan and approve it, oversee implementation and ultimately deem the site
environmentally safe for a residential project. The proposed Agreement was drafted by City outside
counsel and includes the history, environmental conditions, remediation approach and public
information approach to site clean-up.
On February 15, 2011 the City and CDC approved a Cooperation Agreement in which the City agreed
to fulfill the obligations required for the WI-TOD. Entering the Agreement with DTSC will allow the City
to fulfill the schedule and remediation requirements of the Disposition and Development Agreement for
the WI-TOD approved by the CDC on June 21, 2011.
FINANCIAL STATEMENT: APPROVED: Finance
ACCOUNT NO. 522-409-500-598-3934. This Agreement would provide that an amount not to exceed
