440 to other agencies of which the County had approximately 28 1/4% interest . It was noted that all three cities and the County should be aware of their effect on their neighbors since , if for some reason an over-capacity at one of the plants caused a violation , that could mean a cease and desist order would be issued to all cities and that portion of San Mateo County within the Fair Oaks Sewer Maintenance District , Oak Knoll Sewer Mainten- ance District , and the Kensington Sewer Maintenance District . At this point the Director of Public Works noted Page 8 of his report and the tables of comparison with the three cities in 1967 , which met the California Regional Water Quality Control Board ( CRWQCB ) requirements , in volumes and detailed from report , which were still being met . He felt that , unless the City went into some sort of industry that had very high loadings of the "BOD" and " SS " discharge per day, in which case he would recommend a detailed evaluation , and other than individual residential connections , each proposed discharger and estimated effect upon the present facilities should be examined in terms of volume which would keep the problem that much easier to understand . When indicating the approximate percentage of the actual remaining capacity of each collection system, he referred to page 15 of his report and felt that the 0 . 65% was a valid remaining limited capacity for Redwood City . He noted , however , that there would have to be a lot of inter-city cooperation between the three cities of Redwood City , San Carlos and Belmont as far as the discharge permit was concerned . The Director of Public Works briefly related how the remaining flow could be quickly used depending upon the rate of growth . He mentioned that if the City and County felt that they could not live within these limits until a new treatment facility could be constructed , then the alternative would be to make interim improvements to the existing plant . He stated that in discussing this phase with the cities involved it appeared that the best solution at this time would be interim improvements in each indivi- dual plant , which could increase capacity and which would give time before the need for the SCSP plant . For Redwood City there would be three or four possible alternatives which would range in cost from $75 , 000 to 5175 , 000 , which were first cost figures . Some of the proposals would be reusable in the proposed SCSP plant , and others would be totally non- recoverable . As the new plant had not been designed there would be no guarantee for any reusable or recoverable proposals , as , he noted , the City would not know how long the interim improvements would have to be used . 6/19/73 Adjd .
