MINUTES OF BUSINESS MEETING
DESCHUTES COUNTY BOARD OF COMMISSIONERS
WEDNESDAY, JUNE 119 2008
Commissioners' Hearing Room - Administration Building - 1300 NW Wall St., Bend
Present were Commissioners Dennis R. Luke, Tammy Melton and Michael M.
Daly. Also present were Dave Kanner, County Administrator; Erik Kropp, Deputy
County Administrator; Tom Blust, George Kolb and Anna Cambra, Road
Department; Timm Schimke, Solid Waste Department; Laurie Craghead, Legal
Counsel; Sue Brewster, Sheriff's Office; Teresa Rozic, Property & Facilities;

Administrator; media representative Hillary Borrud of The Bulletin; and
approximately forty other citizens.
Chair Luke opened the meeting at 10:00 a.m.
1. Before the Board was Citizen Input.
Chair Luke introduced seven cadets from the Oregon Youth Challenge
program, along with their instructor. He explained the program takes 17
months overall, and of the 156 youth who started, 125 will graduate next week.
There is no requirement to attend; it is optional and voluntary. He said that
many of the cadets get their GED certificate while in the program, or graduate
from their high school. It is sponsored by the Oregon National Guard but there
is no requirement to go on to military service. Cadets come from all over the
state.
One of the cadets stated that she would like to see the program get more
attention, as it has been life changing for all of them. She hopes to become a
registered nurse eventually.

Annis Henson, a Bend resident since 1973, said she hasn't been to a meeting
before, but does attend Bend City Council meetings regarding public transit
issues. She encouraged support of the Bend Area Transit District.
No other testimony was given.
2. Before the Board was Recognition of "Adopt a Road" 15-Year Volunteers.
George Kolb and Anna Cambra came before the Board and asked that
volunteers who adopted roads fifteen years ago be recognized for their efforts.
These volunteers agree to pick up trash along a two-mile stretch of road at least
twice a year.
The first volunteers recognized were Gretchen Byrd and Sue Keeney (who were
unable to attend); also Ken and Marian Shrader; Bill Swanson of Fall River
Estates; Bill Heisler and the Crooked River Ranch Lions Club; Arlie and Lynne
Holm; Jill Ergenbright, Linda Intlekofer and Marilyn Brooks; and Vernon
Smith and Judith Bull.
3. Before the Board was a Presentation regarding New Recycling Programs.
Brad Bailey of Bend Garbage and Recycling explained that they are always
trying to promote and enhance recycling efforts, and recognize customers that
recycle more.
Habitat for Humanity Restore recycles or reuses 25 tons of material a month.
They used revenue from this to build two houses. In Redmond, Polar Bean
Coffee Cottage makes a lot of effort to prepare material for collection. Under
residential, Robert and Pat Folton of Bend, and Margaret Wallace of Redmond
should be recognized.
Since September of last year, when they changed from bins to roll carts within
the cities, there has been overall 20% (or 1,100 tons) recycled, not including the
volume from growth, just diversion. In Redmond there has been a 27%
increase in diversion, the single largest increase ever. The #1 goal is to make
collection safer for the drivers. The curbside yard debris program had
generated about 300 tons of material; this is on a subscription basis at this point.

The U.S. Postal Service is diverting five tons a month from there. Deschutes
County has a number of facilities that were upgraded in County offices. Rocky
Mountain Bar-B-Q diverts about a ton of glass a week.
All of this fits in with the 2030 plan for waste handling.
Mr. Bailey added that for over thirteen years his company has been honoring
seniors in local high schools with scholarships.
4. Before the Board was Consideration of Chair Signature of Document No.
2008-302, a Notice of Intent to Award Contract for the Knott Landfill Area
A Closure and End Use Plan Engineering and Design Services.
Timm Schimke said that recycling adds to the life of the landfill, which avoids
having to ship waste to another location for a period of time. About 33% of all
of the waste generated goes elsewhere. He hopes to reach a recycling goal of
50% by 2009.
Area A, about 50 acres in size, has about reached its final contours. They have
to do a formal closure of the area. A variety of end uses will be identified,
including possibly walking trails or a park. They will get citizen input on what
is desired.
He said that the contract bids were clear and the amount is approximately what
was expected. He then explained how the bidding process took place.

Youth Authority relating to Youth Violence and Gang Services.
Ken Hales explained that this grant is for a needs assessment regarding gang
activities, in the amount of $54,000.

7. Before the Board was Consideration of Signature of Document No. 2008-256,
an Intergovernmental Agreement with the Four Rivers Vector Control
District for the Surveillance and Testing of West Nile Virus in Mosquito
Populations, in Areas Outside the Four Rivers Vector Control District.
Dan Peddycord explained that since the West Nile virus started moving west,
the County elected to do some enhanced testing of mosquitoes and dead birds.
They can do on the spot tests, and if it is found, the sample would be sent to the
State to confirm. It is suspect mostly northern parts of the County; and Four
Rivers Vector Control handles most of the south County. Most mosquitoes
found in the high country are not likely to carry the virus. If there are
occurrences of virus, there are some funds in the contract to do mosquito
control.
Commissioner Daly asked about a company that wants to do aerial spraying.
Mr. Peddycord stated that due diligence is being followed and there may be
others that can do the same thing. This company has worked a lot in areas and
states where this is a huge problem, but this area has had very few cases.

He suggested that anyone who owns a horse should get it vaccinated; the
vaccine is very effective. The virus can be deadly if the horse is not vaccinated.

8. Before the Board was Consideration of Signature of Document No. 2008-
284, a Services Agreement between Pfeifer & Associates, the Sheriff's
Office and the Mental Health Department regarding In-Custody Drug and
Alcohol Treatment and Counseling.
Sue Brewster and Capt. Tim Edwards of the Sheriff's Office said that this is an
important part of the work center treatment programs. This provides for the
first time a continuation of alcohol and drug treatment. It starts in the jail,
covering both men and women, and goes on to the work center. It is a thirteen-
month program.
MELTON: Move approval.

9. Before the Board was Consideration of Signature of Document No. 2008-

the City of Sisters.
Capt. Edwards stated that this renews the agreement with Sisters, which has
now been in place about ten years, with a 5% increase this time. They are
guaranteed 120 hours of service a week within the City.
Dave Kanner added that there is a clause in the contract that allows for an
increase in the amount if the County's costs increase, and with the cost of fuel
going up, this is a possibility.

Dave Kanner explained how the grant program works and how the nonprofit
agencies apply for the funding. Letters went out to about 600 registered
nonprofits, and applicants were evaluated based on services provided and other
criteria. About $300,000 total was divided up and awarded to 24 nonprofits.
Commissioner Baney asked if they all received funding. Mr. Inbody said that
four were pulled for additional review of the Board and one

11. Before the Board was Consideration of Signature of Order No. 2008-052,
Declaring Intent to Form the Bend Area Transportation District, and
Setting a Hearing Date of July 21, 2008.
Laurie Craghead stated that the City has forwarded to the Board a resolution of
this formation, which includes the city limits and Deschutes River Woods. The
map that was provided is not adequate for the Department of Revenue, so a
revised legal description is being provided (copy attached).
This action just sets the date for the hearing. The Board decided that an early
evening hearing would be best to allow more people to attend.
MELTON: Move the Order be amended to show a hearing time and date of
Monday, July 21, 2008 at 5:30 p.m.

12. Before the Board was Consideration of First and Second Readings and
Adoption, by Emergency, of Ordinance No. 2008-019, Establishing County
Procedures under Oregon Rule to Minimize Groundwater Pollution in
South Deschutes County.
Tom Anderson said that additional copies of the ordinance are available. It is
not the proposed local rule; it is an ordinance that has been discussed that
requires new construction in the South County to use a nitrogen reducing
system. It also includes any systems that are required to be expanded or a
system failure.
In July 2006 under Oregon Admin Rule the County, as the agent of the State,
cannot allow a system that in the County's best judgment may pollute. In 2006
under that rule all new construction that didn't already have an approved site
evaluation to use that technology. There were approximately 900 properties
with prior approval at that time, either specific or blanket for a subdivision.
They were exempted at that time in recognition of their past approval.
That is one of the primary effects of this ordinance. If they have not exercised
that prior approval within the two years, this lifts that exemption. They have
been informed that this recognition would end. Over 250 properties installed a
standard system, and there are about 650 left that have not.
The notice of this meeting was sent to those 650 property owners, and to the
DEQ. The DEQ knows it is on the agenda and what it does, but has not
submitted any testimony on this matter.
Commissioner Luke noted that the Board has had several work sessions on this
issue with members of the public there. It does not make sense to let an old
system be installed when there is an alternative. He asked how far out is build-
out. Mr. Anderson replied there are about 4,000 to 5,000 lots still vacant, some
of which are probably not buildable. Build-out is at about 60%.

Commissioner Daly asked that if a system was installed a couple of years ago,
people can't understand that this system may not treat nitrates. Mr. Anderson
said this is part of the local rule, but not the ordinance being discussed today. A
newer system would be less costly to upgrade.
Commissioner Melton asked why an ordinance is necessary if there is an OAR
in place. Mr. Anderson said that in 2006 it was done administratively in
conjunction with the DEQ. Over the past year and the amount of discussion
and scrutiny this issue has had, it was decided that this should come to the
Board in this fashion instead of administratively, although the authority to do
this administratively is available.
Rep. Gene Whisnant of District 53 spoke, and said he would attend the
afternoon work session also. He said that there is some confusion about the
meetings. He read a statement at this time (a copy of which is attached).
He added that he hopes the Board does not rush into anything and develops a
comprehensive plan. Commissioner Luke said that there have been several
meetings about this particular issue and they have heard a lot from the public in
this regard.
Dave Kanner said the item this morning is for action, and applies only to new
installations in South County and won't affect existing systems unless one fails.
This afternoon, for discussion only, is a proposal staff made in May to revise
the proposed local rule ordinance with a slightly different timeframe and
addressing hardship issues. No decision on that will be made at this time.
Typically no oral testimony will be taken, but written testimony is welcome.
Bill Gaetano of Sunriver, also of Special Road District No. 1 and a Realtor,
suggested another public hearing. There were hearings in La Pine and the
Board knows how the public feels about this.
Commissioner Luke said that all this does is do what is required. People had
two years to put in the systems.
Mr. Gaetano replied that there should be special consideration, as it seemed at
the time that five years were allowed.

Mr. Anderson said that the site evaluation is good forever, but the technical
requirements can change for the permit based on soil characteristics and the
water level. A septic permit has an expiration date of one to two years. So,
barring unusual actions, the evaluation is still good. This just addresses the type
of system that needs to be installed.
Mr. Gaetano asked why only the south County is being targeted. Mr. Anderson
replied that it is entirely due to the unique geologic circumstances in the area,
with its shallow ground water and porous soil. It has been a focus of scientific
study. Most other areas in the County have deep ground water with a lot of
solid rock in between.
Commissioner Luke added that the study was done by the USGS and the DEQ,
not the County.
Mr. Gaetano asked why there has not been an independent study other than the
USGS or DEQ. Mr. Anderson said that this question has come up a lot. The
work was done in most part by the USGS, which is really considered the neutral
third party agency rather than one that advocates for an outcome. Their work
has been peer reviewed by many others. All are included in the published
studies that came out of that work. The DEQ assisted with some of the data
gathering and statistics. This is basically a policy question. The Board could
direct a third party review, but staff feels the USGS is the highest qualified
organization able to do this work.
Mr. Gaetano asked if the local environmental county group has contacted the
water analysis people within the county areas. Whenever property is sold, a
well test is done to determine if there are nitrates or bacteria. He understands
their data shows these levels are very low. Mr. Anderson stated that well tests
are done whenever property changes hands. The samples are made available to
the USGS. They used other kinds of well samples also, from monitoring wells
and existing area wells. It is one piece of the analysis and did not drive the
conclusions.
Commissioner Luke stated that at this time they are only talking about an
ordinance that requires this system in new construction, and asked if Mr.
Gaetano had questions on that. Mr. Gaetano did not.

Mr. Anderson stated there is extensive information on the website that
addresses all of his questions and background on the proposed local rule,
including frequently asked questions by category.
Laura Harvey of Deschutes River Recreation Homesites said she owns several
properties. She wanted to know what gives the Board the right to threaten
citizens with liens on their properties when the County is going down the tubes
and the cost of gas is high -
Commissioner Luke said that this just requires that if you build a new house,
you need this system.
Ms. Harvey asked about flagged lots. Commissioner Luke said that these are
not being discussed this morning. Ms. Harvey stated that she has a vacant lot
with a sand filter system already installed. Commissioner Luke replied that it is
not affected. Ms. Harvey said a lot of people got a notice on this in the mail
who may already have a system in place. Mr. Anderson noted that in addition
to the 650 people who already have approvals, as a courtesy it was sent to
anyone who has expressed an interest in this issue. They also get any other
notice sent out regarding this overall issue.
Chris wildriver? Asked if this involves new construction or alterations. Mr.
Anderson said that if there is a remodel that is extensive enough to require an
expanded system, it would need to be the newer system. If there are no
additional bedrooms, bathrooms or a new laundry room, it would likely not be
triggered. It is based on the likelihood of additional flow into the system. It
would also apply if there is a major system repair or a failed system.
Todd Cleveland added that it would require a nitrogen reducing system or an
addition to the system, the best available.
Commissioner Melton asked if DEQ has approved anything for lower level
treatment. Mr. Cleveland replied that some newer ones are being reviewed by
DEQ but are not available yet.
Mr. ? asked whether the problem is imminent or does it exist now. Mr. Kanner
stated that the DEQ quotes the administrative rule, making a finding that a
health hazard exists. The letter says that this finding has been met.

Bob Patterson of Beaver Drive said that he has a feasibility letter for a sand
filter system. He asked if there is anything about the ATT characteristics that
would render this feasibility not useable. Mr. Anderson said that approval is
good for the property, but this adds a component to the sand filter. There could
be a difference in cost and maintenance.
Vicki Jackson of Coldwell Banker First Resort Realty said water tests are done
by a research company in Bend, and they are not having any problems with the
water tests. She asked if there are any recent water tests coming in that show a
concern with nitrates.
Mr. Anderson said that these tests do not come to the County. The report
recommends that the County do occasional testing to monitor the predictions
from the study in a ten-year cycle, and this would include real estate sampling.
They also have to check the monitoring wells. One of the scientific conclusions
is that nitrates move slowly through the groundwater, which is the reason for
the ten-year cycle for retesting. Probably there would not be much difference in
one year. At some point a major retest would be done.
Commissioner Luke said this question was asked at a meeting with the USGS
and the DEQ. Wells are located lower than drainfields usually. Nitrates are in
the upper levels, and would be found above the wells. By the time they get to
the wells, the concentrations above the wells would be much higher.
Ms. Jackson asked if a system is failing now, are those getting fixed. Mr.
Anderson replied that failing systems are the #1 priority. Code enforcement is
usually done as a result of complaints, but this is the exception if they have any
information at all on a bad system. Commissioner Luke added that the County
can't go onto private property without permission, so it makes it difficult.
Ms. Jackson said that a builder put in an experimental sand filter and was told it
does filter for nitrates. Mr. Cleveland said they are not designed to reduce
nitrogen.
Jack Graham of the Sunriver area said he owns several DRRH lots. He
wondered if there is a health risk, why the Health Department or Watermaster is
not involved.
Minutes of Board of Commissioners' Business Meeting Monday, June 11, 2008
Page 11 of 17 Pages
Mr. Anderson replied that the Health Department has attended meetings and
reviewed the work, and has testified. They also networked with the State
Department of Health Services to review the work of the USGS. Their role at
this point is limited to the potential health effects of nitrates. The
Watermaster's role is not so much the health of the system, but the capacity for
wells.
Commissioner Luke added that the DEQ by law has to deal with pollution, and
that's why they have a septic approval authority. Mr. Anderson said that the
DEQ has been involved every step of the way. They are notified of all
meetings, and could attend any of them or submit testimony.
Mr. Graham said he has several lots adjacent to each other, and asked if a
cluster system could work. Commissioner Luke suggested he talk to
Community Development about this. Mr. Graham stated that some are red
flagged due to high water, are designated as wetlands but none of the lots flood.
Commissioner Luke stated that under current rules not much can be done. One
reason DEQ declared an emergency is that it makes it easier for people to
pursue putting in sewer systems. This will help with some lots.
Jerry Criss of Ponderosa Pines asked why such a simple agenda and hearing got
so confusing. He asked how the County can expect to handle this issue, as big
as it is.

NOTICE OF PUBLIC MEETING
June 11, 2008, 10:00 AM
Board Hearing Room in the Deschutes Services Center
1300 NW Wall St., Bend
The Deschutes County Board of Commissioners will hold a public meeting to consider signature
of an ordinance to require the use of alternative onsite wastewater treatment systems for onsite
system permits issued in south Deschutes County by the Community Development Department.
PLEASE NOTE
This ordinance is separate and distinct from the proposed Local Rule currently under
consideration by the Board of Commissioners. This ordinance applies only to new
construction and system replacements tied to home expansion or system failure.
This ordinance would establish County procedures under Oregon Administrative Rule (OAR)
Chapter 340, Division 71. Specifically, OAR 340-071-0130(1) states:
"Protection of public waters from public health hazards. An agent may not authorize installation
or use of a system that is likely to pollute public waters or create a public health hazard. If, in
the judgment of the agent, the minimum standards in this division will not adequately protect
public waters or public health on a particular site, the agent must require a system to meet
requirements that are protective. This may include but is not limited to increasing setbacks,
increasing drain field sizing, or using an alternative system."
The public meeting will be held on Wednesday, June 11 at 10:00 a.m. in the Deschutes County
Services Center Board of County Commissioners hearing room at 1300 NW Wall St. in Bend.
For more information, please contact Barbara Rich, barbarar@co.deschutes.or.us, 617-4713.
You are receiving this notice because you have asked to be notified of issues or events related
to:
1. south Deschutes County and onsite wastewater treatment systems and/or the proposed
Local Rule, or
2. Deschutes County records indicate that you own a property that has an approval for an
onsite wastewater treatment system and has not been developed.

Bend, Oregon 97701
June 11, 2008
Reference: Draft Ordinance 2008-019 June 11, 2008 Agenda Item
Dear Commissioners Daly, Luke, and Melton:
There was some miscommunications and thus, misunderstanding concerning your June 11, 2008
10:00 AM meeting and whether there will be public testimony on Ordinance 2008-019.
Thus, I am submitting this letter in case there is no public testimony on Ordinance 2008-019.
I concur the County should require the 700 property owners - with permits issued prior to July 1,
2006 approving a system that will not protect the groundwater in South Deschutes County from
nitrogen discharges - to now install an approved nitrogen-reducing onsite wastewater treatment
system.
However, I strongly urge the County Commissioners to not take a piece-meal approach to the
need for a comprehensive plan which protects the groundwater resources in South Deschutes
County as proposed by Deschutes County for the 2005 US Environmental Protection Agency
grant.
Also, I would suggest the ordinance define "public hazard" and "pollution" as used in this
ordinance.
Respectfully,
4Gen
