SPSA PRESENTATION ITEM # 19928
Durwood Curling, Executive Director of Southeastern Public Service
Authority (SPSA), presented historical as well as future projections
of the Refuse Derived Fuel (RDF) Proposal as follows:
In 1974, eight communities (through the Planning District Commission)
decided to attempt solving the solid waste disposal problem in the area
on a regional basis, all of whom had problems but the City of Virginia
Beach.
Through the Planning District Commission, a consultant was employed to
determine alternatives for solving the problem. In the spring of 1977,
the consultant published a report and recommended that the region use
the resource recovery alternative by building a system at the Norfolk
Naval Shipyard in Portsmouth that would utilize the solid waste from
the eight communities -- some 575,000 tons estimated in 1985 -- to
produce steam electricity for the Shipyard (their major energy problem:
the power plant is worn out).
The report was approved and, during the next year, the local communities
came up with the "front-end" money necessary to do the original planning
to obtain the Air Quality Permit from UPA, the Health Department permit,
etc. By July 1978 the money was available and a staff was engaged to
begin the initial work which included 30% design, cost estimating,
obtaining the UPA permit, etc. This work was completed on time and
within the budget in the spring of 1979. After this, negotiations
began with the United States Navy for a contract to purchase steam and
electricity from the Public Service Authority which was to build the
waste processing plant, the transfer stations and the power plant at the
Shipyard. Because these negotiations were not satisfactory, the Public
Service Authority met with Congressmen Whitehurst and Daniel, Senators
Warner, Byrd, and Navy personnel on June 30 to determine whether the project
would proceed. The decision made as a result of that meeting was the
project should be restructured -- rather than the Public Service Authority
building the entire project, the Navy would build the power plant, own it
and operate it, whicb represents approximately 75% of the cost of the
project.
In 1977, the Navy took the stand that it could not make appropriations
required to build a new power plant; bowever, that situation changed
and $160 million was appropriated for the power plant. The Navy has
received the first increment of the $160 million; namely, approximately
$33 million, and it has let the first contract for site clearing at the
Shipyard. The remainder of the appropriation is to come in tbe next two
budget years.
As a result of the decision to restructure the project, negotiations
began with the Navy in the fall of 1980 and were concluded in June 1981.
An agreement on a contract was reached and submitted to the Navy in
Washington for approval. Financing was based on a six-month approval
process (now in the twenty-fourth month). It has been approved at all
levels by the Navy and is now in tbe office of the Secretary of Defense.
No specific date has been given for approval by Washington. After
approval by the Secretary of Defense, it will go to the House Senate on
Services Committee and will be there for 30 days for comments. If there
are no comments, this constitutes approval of the contract.

ITF24 # 19928 (continued)
The other question involved with the Bond Anticipation Notes is that
if the City of Chesapeake participates, obviously the obligations of
Virginia Beach would be different.
As yet, none of the communities (members of SPSA) has taken cash dollars
out of pocket to fund the solid waste disposal program. All funding
has come from borrowing by the Authority, backed by the faith and
credit of the five communities. The plan is that if the project proceeds,
borrowing will be paid off in the band issue for the Resource Recovery
Project and none of the communities would have to come up with any capital.
Payments would be made in the form of a tipping fee (a unit disposal
cost per ton of garbage). The sheet entitled "Proportionate Shares -
Bond Anticipation Notes" (hereby declared a part of the record) shows
the present debt as $3,010,000 and the present commitment is $943,000
(of the $3,010,000). Without Chesapeake, the proposed renewal conanit-
ment would be $1,203,000; with Chesapeake, the commitment would be
$1,040,000.
Chesapeake will be presenting its request at the SPSA Board meeting on
May 25 to come into the solid waste program.
At the present time, Virginia Beach is obligated for $943,000; if
Virginia Beach drops out at this point it would pay off this figure.
The tipping fee would decline as time progresses because the sale of
energy would absorb more of the cost of operating tbe project as the
cost of energy escalates.
The Resource Recovery Plant in Portsmouth is predicated upon the Navy's
participation.
The cost estimate is out of date and SPSA included in the roll over the
Bond Anticipation Notes.
The $160 million is 100% Federal cost; the Authority has no share of
that $160 million. The cost estimate for the Resource Recovery Plant,
the transfer stations, and the rolling stock will be discussed at the
Board meeting in the fall of 1983.
The project has been reduced in scope, as far as the Authority is
concerned, to approximately one-fourtb of what it was originally con-
ceived to be. Initially, one of the problems with the project was that
it was too big.
Every major metropolitan area in the United States in the next decade
will be into resource recovery. It has one big advantage -- it is a
permanent solution to the solid waste disposal problem that communities
face.
The plan is to use the Virginia Beach landfill for the disposal of ash
from the power plant (the power plant has tbe capability of burning 100%
coal or 100% garbage, or any combination). That landfill has enough
space for 30 years of use.
5/16/83
- 7-
ITEM #19928 (continued)
Virginia Beach generates approximately 40% of the solid waste in this
area. It will still have municipal solid waste disposal costs.
"Separation at the source" is not cost-effective.
The contract provides for payment of the debt in its entirety should the
Shipyard be closed. SPSA agreed to take the Navy's waste at the same
cost as the cities pay.
If the Navy does not come through, the alternatives are:
(1) Option of participating in a regional landfill
(which would greatly reduce the life of that
landfill).
(2) Continue to operate the landfill we now have until
space in it is used.
The obvious incentive for the Navy to spend $160 million is that they
need a new power plant desperately.
The private sector investor recoups his money because of the benefits
accrued from the tax laws in approximately five years.
Virginia Beach is needed to make the project work.
Once this project comes on line, the Suffolk landfill would be used as
a backup for the Resource Recovery Plant. Space in the Virginia Beach
landfill would be used for ash in the power plant. The landfill would
serve as a deposit place for the non-combustible waste from Suffolk,
Franklin, Isle of Wight, Southampton, and Portsmouth.
It is in the contract that Suffolk will not be able to use that landfill
unless allowed by SPSA.
LITTLE ISLAND PARK ITEM #19929
David Grochmal, Assistant to the City Manager/Intergovernmental Relations,
presented Council a proposed lease agreement of Little Island Park
for beach equipment rental (copy of which is hereby made a part of the
record).
There was only one bidder -- Thomas B. Shell, Jr.
The City will provide lifeguards and parking attendants.
This item will be presented again at the Informal Session of City Council
on May 23, 1983 for further response.

ADD ON ITEM # 19930
Oral Lambert, Director of Public Works, was elected President of the
American Public Works Association (Virginia-Maryland-District of
Columbia). The 1984 convention of the AP14A will be held in Virginia Beach.
REVIEW OF CONSENT AGENDA ITIN # 19931
Consent Agenda Item number I was discussed. The staff is to make a
presentation regarding the rural connunity program and determine its
effectiveness; e.g., what are the laws and how effective are they.
Consent Agenda Item number 3 (Code Amendment - Vehicle License) was
discussed. The question as to whether the City can require vehicle
decals was presented. It was decided to defer this item for three
weeks (June 6, 1983) for further discussion.
City Council RECESSED into EXECUTIVE SESSION at One Fifty in the afternoon.

VEPCO Presentation ITHM # 19936
Richard J. Gutleber, Director of Engineering Services with Virginia
Electric and Power Company advised of Vepco's plans to construct a
transmission line between the Green Run Substation and the Greenwich
Substation.
On December 9, 1982, Vepco met with the Mayor and the City Manager to
inform them of the above stated plans prior to application of approval
by the State Corporation Commission.
On February 7, 1983 a presentation was made to City Council on the
environmental methodology to be used in addressing this project. A
consultant was hired for that purpose.
On March 16, 1983, Vepco met with the civic leagues of Larkspur and
Timberlake, and the Green Run Homeowners Association. Tn response to
their concerns, a consultant was employed.
The PROPOSED route that Vepco is considering, basically, originates at
the Green Run Substation, running along Independence Boulevard to the
old railroad grade shown on the map and continuing up the old railroad
grade where it intersects the Norfolk-Southern Railroad, continuing down
the railroad where the existing transmission line is to the Greenwich
Substation.
The ALTERNATE route goes up Independence Boulevard and continues approxi-
mately 0.7 mile across the rear property of Timberlake Subdivision near
Holland Road, running along Windsor Oaks Boulevard for 0.3 mile, running
through Windsor Oaks Apartments, following the tributary of Thalia Creek,
running through Mt. Trashmore where it intersects with the Norfolk-
Southern Railroad.
The ALTERNATE route is approximately 1.5 miles longer than the PROPOSED
route and it has more exposure, congestion and impact.
The PROPOSED route is the most environmentally acceptable.
