3.16* Cash Advance - In recent years, the BCDBH has faced significant cash flow problems
primarily due to slow reimbursements from the State. When the department became its
own fund, it needed a cash advance to close the books at the end of a fiscal year. To
improve cash flow, the department has continued to budget less expenditures than
anticipated revenues and improved its billing process. This has helped the situation. As of
the end of May 2012, the cash deficit was approximately $3.5 million. This is a significant
improvement from a cash deficit of $9.4 million in November 2010. The department saw
a steady improvement in cash flow over the past two years and anticipated a minimal
cash flow deficit at the end of the current fiscal year. Unfortunately, the State all but
ceased payments of Medi-Cal reimbursements in May 2012 exacerbating the cash flow
problems for the department. Due to continued volatility of State reimbursements, the
department is requesting the Board to authorize a cash advance of up to $7 million from
the Public Health realignment restricted cash accounts (Fund 0021 accounts 10117411,
10117421, 10117451 and 10117461). This is $3 million less than the amount the Board
approved last year. The department will repay the cash advance by April 2013 with funds
received from Medi-Cal reimbursements and realignment revenues -action requested -
AUTHORIZE A CASH ADVANCE OF UP TO $7 MILLION FROM THE PUBLIC HEALTH
REALIGNMENT RESTRICTED CASH ACCOUNTS INTO THE BEHAVIORAL HEALTH FUND.

Associates to prepare a scope of work to re-accredit the non-urban levee sections 1034

Additionally, State law requires all jurisdictions to approve an HHW Element (plan) as part

Services for the operation of the Butte Regional HHW Facility. The number of participants
using the facility has grown over the years, as has the cost of operation of the facility. The
number of items determined to be hazardous has grown over the years as well and
contributes to the increase in volume collected and disposed through the household
hazardous waste program. In anticipation of the contract expiring, staff researched
potential options available to the County including: negotiating with current service
provider, determining if other permitted facilities and qualified operators are available in
the Chico area, or developing a permanent HHW facility at the Neal Road Recycling and
Waste Facility. Staff has determined contracting with NRC Environmental Services to be

agencies. The department released a Request for Proposals (RFP) on May 5, 2012 and
received five proposals on May 23, 2012. The RFPs were reviewed and scored by Public

sampling within one hour notice), content of work plan, and cost. SCS Engineers' proposal
was scored the highest and considered to be most responsive to the RFP. SCS Engineers'

5% ($12,442) for additional unanticipated work that may arise over the contract period
