0Iy Staff Review of
HMAC ArMevement. and Proposed W:>rkplan
lI.aground:
AI L"" City Manager's meeting of April 12, 1995, the Managers requested that city staff
review the past three-year perfo<man<:e and proposed wod:plan report presented by
HMAC. The following city staff reprf!Saltatives attended a meetL"g on April 26, 1995:
Gary Leinweb<!r MI. VieW FIre Dept. Bruce Daniels Sunnyvale Public Works
Doris Mae. Palo Alto Public Works Dave Puker Santa C!ara fire Dept.
Gary Lynch San Jose Env. Services Dept.
this report summarizes the general findings, com"",nts, and conclusions of city staff
present .t that mee!in8c
Past Achievements:
City staff reviewers found that HMAC had ac/'Jeved many d the major objectives of jts
three year workplan.. as presented in t."e 1992-1995 AclUevements Summary. Significant
examples inclUjje the establishment of the Business Environmental Assistan.:e Center and
the Santa Oar. Valley Permit Assista"ce Center, targeted technical workshops Eo< small
busir,ess, preparing guidance documents fo< the l>t.;siness community, the consensus
building SB 1082 sul>committee process, aM the development of the Household
Ha.za:rdc<Js Was!e program.
Proposed Workplan:
City staff also reviewed the proposed workplan Eo< the coming fiscal year. In general,
activities will continue in the areas addressed by the previous workplan as there is a
continuing need fO< these services in the COU!\ty. (The specific work elements ""-e defined
in the work program included with this packet of infO<mation.)
City staff offered positive suggestions on ways to increase countywide benefit ol next year's
proposed activities. Foe example, varying workshop locations and repeatL"\g tJ-.em as
appropriab! in different cities would increase their accessibility to smalll>usinesses
throug..'1ou! the county. There was general agreement thai HMAC workshops addressed
timely subject areas and provided valuable service. One city sliU'fer commented that
HMACs activities are cost~ective .. complimentary to their own activities .. and that they
respo!\d \0 issues the city has iden61ied
Gty staff aiso discussed the need Eo< HMAC \0 address emerging ;ssues with potential for
broad, countywide implications. Specific issues ;der.tifjed included new I€ad based paint
regulations, low I€yei radioactive waste, and other medical and bio-Iech industry issues.
TIIese issues and others identifi...<>d by the cities correspond with and call be addressed by the
proposed HMAC wOI'kplan.

<Semoostrate!he need 10 improve communication betw""" HMAC and city stoff. The
diak>gue pr~ !ha! HMAC is eslabllshir.g will help improve this communk.tion in the
future, but HWJ.C staff will work wi!h city staff to address their concerns in planning
future activiti.,,;.
The following items were raised as slgnific:anl issll .. 10 be addressed!
1. Focus oCHMAC Initiatives
City srJJfJ Comments: aty staff identified whal appeart'd 10 be a change in the focus of
HMAC iruPativ .. from pollution prevention inlO more polltical a"d policy are.s sudt
as penr.it streamlining &.'\d regulalocy reform &.'\d the development of an e1ectronk
data base of environmenlal information.
HMAC ksponu: As reflected both by !he membership and Mission Stalement HMAC
initiatives are intended 10 address issues from the poll tical and po!lcy levels as well as
!he rechnicallevel Specifically !he HMAC Mission Statement includes !he follow'.ng
objectives
• To address priority issues by providing practical solutions 10 industry and
government hazardous malerials I!lalllgers
• To monila .. and evaluate issues when requested to <!o so by government agendes
• To facilitate !he eoo<dination or L'ltegration of programs when appropria!e. and
when agreed 10 by !he responsible jurlsdktions
With membership representing all political jurisdictions in !he county as well as
representatives from all other key stakeholders HMAC is the onty countywkle forum
where hazardous ma!erials management issues can be addressed at i1'.is level.
2. Overlap of HMAC lnitialives with Other rrosrams
City Su.ff Comments: City staff identiIled cer:ain areas where HMAC Initiatives
potentially overlap with eldsting city level !,!ograms sucn as Non-point source control
and was!e water discl.arge control programs. Concern was expressed that HMAC
Initiatives not duplicate these existing programs and servkes.
HMAC ksponse: Because HMAC shares this concern. HMAC is commencing.
countywide dialogue process 10 foster improved coDaboralion and program consistency
between agencies on a countywide basis. The goals and objectives of this dialogue
process .... I",
• Improve _communication between !he city and county level programs,
• Improve efficiency in !he delivery of services 10 the affected entities, and
• Promote improved understanding of government programs by the business
community.
HMAC coordinates ;15 activities with QIh.". stakeholders to prevent duplication of
efrort. Foe example, in !he area of metals reduction.. HMAC is coordinating its efforts
.. ->.. -----.--., " .... a 10" ........ ,--~------
"i
with the POJV.ls. The onsile assista!lCe project with Lawrence Uvermore National
Labor.tacy will focus on tier 2 companies f<) ensure that activities do n« dq)'.ia.te the
other I'OTW efforts.
HMAC is the only countywide <><ganizaoon with a multi-media poIlunon prevenoon
foc\:s. As. resclt HMAC does overlap single (<<us programs creating the opportunif)'
10 incorporate the views and input from all stakeholder,; 10 address issues on a
(Oounlywide, multimedia basis.
:l. Add! tiona! FundinS Soure!:!
City S!tl.ff Commrofs: Ci!y staff raised a concern that the business communif)'. primary
bene/klary of many HMAC activities, has n« been requested 10 provide direct program
fundL"g. HMAC does no! f.illy recover cos!s from the participants and recipients of
technical workshops and publications like the H""'rdo~s Waste Suroi""l Guide. Sou,.
<if)' staff also stated the need for HMAC 10 acknowledge df)' staff in-Idnd contributions
to its programs. HMAC could explore some potential alternative funding mechanisms
that were raised at the meeting, including:
• SB 1082 Cos! Recovery: HMAC expenses could be cl-.arged directly 10 hazardous
waste gen"n!o<s .s part of the new fee scheduie created unde, SB 1082
implementation This system y;ould ensure that COSls were borne by an hazardous
waste genera1o<s. This co~ may be considered for future years as part SB 1082
implemen tanon.
• Support from other agencies: HMAC activities often benefit additional agencies .
who could be asked 10 participate in the support of the program. For example,
HMAC's involvement in air issues benefi·ts the BAAQMD and HMAC .hould make
an eIfon 10 apply for support from that agency.
• Grar.ts: HMAC could investigate grant opportu..-uties I<> fund its activities.
HMAC kspvnse: HMAC typically recovers some <<>SIS for its wocksOOps and technical
assistance through registration 0< other fees. Slaff ... ill examire opportunities 10
increase cost recovery and provide a report 10 HMAC with recommendations in this
area. However, ther .. is concern that additional fees on ind~ would de!racl from the
primary objectives and benefits of HMAC activjties.
In-\:ind conttibutions from both city staff and the business communif)' are an e=ntial
pari of the way that HMAC leverages resources 10 achieve so much at its current level
of funding. HMAC has consisfently made an efforllo leverage resources an<'! obtain
outside support for its activities from both businesses ,""d other agencies. The attacl1ed
chart '"!ndustry In-kind ConEributions' was prepared 10 help clarify W actual
con Eributions from industry .

}{MAC has been pur.;uing grants that are consistent with the wockpW> and this effcrt
should continue. P.ecently, HMAC was awarded a gra!'lt fcc $25,000 fur the regior.al
Green Business Program and a $40,000 grant 10 work ,nth the msurance industry 10
promote pollution prevention. The hlgl-Jy competitive nature of grants make them an
"'''.certain funding source and many grants would require significant wo<k outside of
the proposed wod'l'lan. HMAC staff will examine the feasibility of tl,e other suggested
funding mechanisms and repen these results 10 }{MAC.
,. Increased Funding Requests from Participating Cjties
Cil)' Staff Commenrs: City .t.Ef were concerned that HMAC was requesting at, increase
in funding &ocn cities. Fo< some dlks, the reques!ed shares represent a 100% increase
from the lut fundIng cycle. A relaled issue was raised about what wouM haP?'" 10
HMAC if some cities failed 10 participate.
HMAC Response Because of the loss of settlement "..onies, HMAC is requesting
increased general fund suppon from all partidpants. The 15 dlies are being requested
10 share by fonnula one third of the IoIal program funding, $90.000. At the requested
levels, individual city contributions will provide between 1 -8% of Iotal program funds.
The funding f<>rrnula and breakdown among cities is attached. On May 2, the San!a
Clara Valley Water District approved S90,OOO for HMAC On May 9th. the Soard of
SupervisO<. approved S90,ooo County general fund support fur HMAC
The Memorandum of Understanding (MOV) that was signed by the cities, County and
Water District three years ago Slaled that the Program would be implemented when
financial parlkipation by -. majority of the citles representing a majority of the
population in the county" had been obtained. It is expected that a sirrular MOO would
be used fur the new wockplan.
!;. Three Year Program Phase-out
City Staff Comments: City staff raised the issue of "program phaseout'" and referred 10
• City Manager'. Association letter 10 the Cities Association in 1992 recommending litat
HMAC be supported contingent 10 its being • "three-year self-contained program.-
HMAC Response: The MOO developed and signed in 1992 by the County and the cities
Slates the fol]o"ing:
During the Ihlrd year, a comprehensive review of the wo<kplan achievements,
future activities, evaluation of whether the Committee should continue to exist.
and identification of on-going responsibHities wlIl be conducted.
As indicaled by the proposed workplan set f<>rth (0< approval, the Committee has
ronclU<!ed thai HMAC should continue to exist at this time and has identified activities
and issues which can benefil (rom continued countywide oversight and participatioIL
