4.05* Proposal to Establish a Service Center for Eligibility Services -The Department of
Employment and Social Services (DESS) is proposing to move toward a new approach for
its eligibility operations by establishing a Service Center and Task-Based work
environment. The Service Center would take eligibility customer calls, and to the extent
possible, adopt a "one and done" approach to calls. ATask-Based business model would
manage ongoing cases by assigning specific tasks to workers, rather than using the DESS'
past practice of assigning caseload to workers. The DESS' public assistance cases (Medi-
cal, CaIWORKs and CalFresh) have increased significantly in the past several years due to
the recession and are expected to further increase with the possible advent of the
Affordable Care Act (Health Care Reform). Implementation of a Service Center and Task-
Based approach would position the DESS to respond timely to the increased demands
within budgeted resources while, improving quality and efficiency for residents. The total
estimated cost of this proposal is $2.66 million, which includes $2.31 million in one-time
costs. The cost is fully covered by 1991 Realignment Funds and would be spread over two
fiscal years: 2012-13 and 2013-14. There is no impact to the County General Fund. This
project would be implemented with existing staffing levels and currently leased space -
actions requested - 1) AUTHORIZE GENERAL SERVICES DIRECTOR TO EXECUTE ATWO-
YEAR AGREEMENT WITH THE CALIFORNIA STATEWIDE AUTOMATED WELFARE SYSTEM
CONSORTIUM IV JOINT POWERS AUTHORITY (C-IV), SUBJECT TO LEGAL AND FISCAL
REVIEW, IN AN AMOUNT NOT TO EXCEED $2.0 MILLION; 2) APPOINT THE GENERAL
SERVICES DIRECTOR AS THE OFFICER OF THE CONSTRUCTION PORTION OF THE PROJECT;
3) AUTHORIZE THE GENERAL SERVICES DIRECTOR TO EXECUTE, DESIGN, CONSTRUCTION
AND DEPLOYMENT CONTRACTS THAT DO NOT EXCEED $175,000 PER CONSTRUCTION
SITE, OR $225,000 CUMULATIVELY; AND 4) APPROVE BUDGET ADJUSTMENT. (DESS)

some inconsistent analytical results, high coliform levels in one of the monitoring wells,
and that several monitoring wells had gone dry. To address these issues, Northstar
Engineering was selected to make improvements under a work plan for the replacement of
several monitoring wells, to meet monitoring conditions included in the Waste Discharge
Requirements. On May 14, 2012, however, Regional Board staff agreed to rescind the
Waste Discharge Requirements, provided: 1) Each property owner maintains an operating
permit; 2) The CSA contracts with an Operation, Monitoring, and Maintenance (OM&M)
Specialist certified by Butte County Public Health's Environmental Health Division; 3) The
selected OM&M Specialist performs routine maintenance and monitoring for each on-site

could be processed on a smooth, streamlined project with no public controversy. This is
the basis for the new fee type, M+H (Minimum plus Hourly). Beyond that, if a project
becomes controversial or needs additional studies, that time would be charged at the
