Item #1-Department of Environmental Regulation and the City of Atlantic Beach The City Manager presented the final proposed consent order which was negotiated between the City of Atlantic Beach and the Department of Environmental Regulation, and recommended the City Commission approve the terms of the Consent Order, and that the Mayor and City Manager be authorized to execute the agreement. Mr. Moss advised of two changes in the latest consent order retyped by DER which should be recorded: page 3, "pH Units,we show 6.5 and DER's copy shows 6.0 for minimum and 8.5 for maximum". Under Fecal Coliform, #/100 ml we show a monthly average of 200; DER's copy shows 200, but it also shows a maximum of 800 which is standard. Page 4, paragraph 10C: Respondent shall notify the Department by telephone within twenty- four hours of any upset condition. DER's copy reads" Respondent shall notify the Department by telephone on the first working day following the occurrence of an upset condition. Under paragraph 12, Mayor Howell asked where the Regional Pumping Station would be. Mr. Moss said there would be no regional pumping station. Mayor Howell asked the City Manager to check and see if they will agree to strike the word "Regional" and add "Atlantic Beach".

Item #3 Sewer User Charge Structure - EPA-DER Requirement Mr. Robert Stubbs presented an unedited draft of the Wastewater User Charge Determination to Satisfy Regulatory Agency Requirements report to the Commission for their review and action. This report was authorized by the City Commission on July 16, 1984. The report converts the existing flat rate wastewater user charge structure to a volume structure. Robert Bates & Assoc. provided engineering assistance. Mr. Stubbs outlined the recommendations he feels will be approved by EPA-DER. A flat rate for quarterly base charge of $34.50 and the corresponding volume charge for each unit is $0.39. This leaves single family users with either a lower user charge up to approximately 16 thousand gallons or nominal increase above 16 thousand gallons. In the case of larger users, they get a somewhat significant increase, the reason being $0.39 per thousand applies to every unit of water consumption. Mr. Stubbs recommended that the City immediately pursue the refinement of the assignment of the equivalent residential unit factors to each user of the commercial and multi-family usage category. Mr. Stubbs concluded by saying that he felt confident that the report will be accepted by EPA and a meeting has been scheduled with EPA- DER for Monday, July 30, 1984.

Item #4- Rescue Action by Chief Thompson, Chief Royal, and Members of the Fire Department The City Manager furnished background information on an accident that occurred on Atlantic Blvd on July 18, 1984 involving a motorcycle and and automobile. The Commission commended the quick response taken by Chief Thompson, off-duty Jacksonville Fireman Cecil Davis, Chief Royal, Lt. Rew, Robert Carroll, Bert Hagen, and Volunteer Dennis Thayer. At one time, the driver of the motorcycle went into cardiac arrest, but through emergency first aid and skills, the emergency personnel on the scene restored his breathing and heart beat. Mayor Howell instructed the City Manager to place the report in the men's personnel jackets. New Business - None Unfinished Business A.
