C STAFF REPORT APR 0 9 t915 TO' Mayor alld Cl ty COullell FROM, CIty Attorney SUBJECT. Shell 011 Company's Request That The CIty Grant A Renewed Easement For The Crude 011 PIpelIne WhICh Runs Beneath The CIty'S Streets. ThIS report provIdes InformatIon relatIng to Shell 011 Company's request that the CIty grant a franchIse for Its crude 011 pIpelIne whIch runs beneath the CIty'S streets. The report also transmIts for adoptIon a resolutIon InItIatIng proceedIngs to determIne whether or not a franchIse should be granted Pescrlptlon Of The PIpelIne At present a 3_9 mIle segment of Shell's Ventura PIpelIne runs beneath the CIty'S streets, transportIng crude 011 from the Ventura area to Shell's WIlmIngton RefInery and to other refInerIes south of the CIty. The Ventura PIpelIne was laId In 1942 It measures 89 mIles In length and 10 Inches In dIameter and conSIsts of seamless, steel pipe The Santa MonIca segment enters the CIty from the north beneath 26th Street It t~~avels downhIll through the CIty, attaIning a lllgh elevatIon of 1800 feet, fIve miles to the II-C 1 JlPR 0 9 '98S ----- --- < , + . . north and eXItIng from the CIty at an elevatIon of about 100 feet. TravellIng southwest beneath 26th Street, It runs wIthIn 47 feet of the reserVOIr located at 25th and San VIncente and wIthIn 50 feet of Santa MonIca Well Number 6. Just south of Montana there IS a manually operated valve. At 26th and Broadway, the pIpelIne Intersects a storm draIn whIch emptIes Into the ocean at the foot of PICO Boulevard At Colorado, the pIpelIne comes -"nthln a few feet of another storm draIn WhICh ultImately emptIes at the back. From 26t.h Street, the pIpelIne travels west beneath Colorado then south beneath Cloverfleld. It crosses over the Santa MonIca Freeway on the Cloverfleld overpass. At Ocean Park Boulevard, the pIpelIne travels westward for one block and then runs south beneath 23rd Street and Into Los Angeles. A map of the pIpelIne's route through the CIty IS attached as ExhIbIt 41 A U to thIS report. HIstory Of The RIght Of Way In 1941, the CIty granted to Shell 011 Co a forty-year franchIse to lay, maIntaIn, operate and repaIr a segment of pIpelIne beneath the CIty streets. OrdInance Number 807 (CCS 1. The franchIse agl"eement set Shell's fee at a sum dependent upon the pIpelIne's profItabIlIty. That sum was calculated by determInIng a fIgure equal to 2% of the gross profIts realIzed from the pIpelIne multIplIed by the ratIO of the length of the Santa MonIca segment to the whole pIpelIne 2 - ------ ~-- ---~ - - --- ------ ---------- -- ---- - . . . The francluse agreement also establIshed a mInImum fee of S40.00 per mIle. In 1965, the CalIfornIa legIslature adopted a standard franchIse fee for 011 pIpelInes through amendment to PublIC UtIlItIes Code SectIon 6231 That sectIon establIshes franchIse fee formulas for general law cItIes For 011 pIpelInes, the annual fee IS to be computed by: [M]ultIplYlng the sum of one-half cent (SO.005) tImes the nomInal Internal dIameter of the pIpe, expressed In Inches, tImes the number of lIneal feet of such pIpe WIthIn the publIC streets, ways, alleys or other publIC places WIthIn the munIcIpalIty PublIC UtIlItIes Code SectIon 6231 ThIS standard fee fOrmula does not apply to charter CItIes. PublIC UtIlItIes Code SectIon 6205 Nevertheless, In the early 70's, Shell began paYIng Santa MonIca accordIng to the PublIC UtIlItIes Code formula The franchIse agreements terms were never modIfIed to reflect thIS change In practIce. The CIty probably accepted the change because, at the tIme, It resulted In a hIgher payment to the CIty, YIeldIng an annual fee to the CIty of $1,029 60 In early 1981, WI th the franchIse eXpIratIon approachIng, the CIty Informed She 11 that It would have to make safety Improvements and pay a substantIally Increased fee In order to obtaIn renewal Shell offered an annual fee of 3 -----~-------- ----- . . . . . $0 145 per lineal foot or S8,514.51. The City reJected thIS offer out of hand. The orIgInal franchIse expIred on May 28, 1981 Unable to reach agreement on a renewal fee and upon safety condItIons, Shell and the CIty entered Into an InterIm agreement on June 16, 1981. Contract 3654. That agreement set the InterIm fee at $5,000,00 for SIX months, and It requIred Shell to pay $35,000.00 as advanced reImbursement for the CIty'S studIes} analyses and other actIvIties relatIng to negotIatIon of the proposed, new franchIse. The InterIm agreement has been extended, and pursuant to Its terms, Shell pays the CIty $10,000.00 each year pendIng resolutIon of the partIes' dIspute. R~ght Of Way ValuatIon DurIng renewal negotIatIons the partIes agreed that She 11 would prOVIde funds for the CIty to commISSIon an appraIsal and a safety study. Shell and the CIty each obtaIned an appraIsal of the value of the rIght of way and a safety study. The CIty'S appraIsal was prOVIded by Donahue and Co., a real estate appraIsal f Il'm, In December, 1981 Donahue valued the easement at $474,000 00 per year, Donahue applIed a valuatIon formulatIon based upon surface land value, assumIng a ten-foot WIde subsurface right of way at half of the abuttIng surface land value, capItalIzed at 12 5%. Shell commISSIoned Its own appraIsal by Gallagher and ASSOCIates, 4 --~----- -- -----~---- ----- ------ --- . . . . Gallagher's valuatIon method dIsregarded surface land value on the theory that the present use of the surface land as publ1 c streets IS unlIkely to change and that the subsurface pIpelIne does not Interfere WI th the use of the surface land for streets. Instead of lookIng to land value, Gallagher looked at fees charged by other CItIes for all pIpelIne rIghts of way. USIng thIS method, Gallagher concluded that the value of the Santa Monica easement IS between $10,000.00 and $12,000,00 annually. The stark contrast In the two appraIsers' conclUSIons reflects theIr use of entIrely dIfferent valuatIon methods. The Issue of the approprIate valuatIon method for all pIpelIne rIghts of way IS a controversIal one In the state at thIS tIme The State Board of EqualIzatIon began asseSSIng Intercounty pIpelIne rIghts of way WI tlll n the last two years. In the Caslstas Plpelln~ case, ten companIes) IncludIng Shell, appealed assessments based upon fees paId by all companIes for rIghts of way across prIvately owned lands USIng thIS method, the Board's staff concluded that the worth of the franchIses was $65,000 00 per mIle ApplYIng the capItalIzatIon rate of 11-1/2 percent used by the staff) thIS works out to an annual rate of about $7,650 00 per mIle At a hearIng on November 14, 1984, the 011 companIes contended that the proper valuatIon could only be based upon rates charged by munICIpalItIes and that thIS method would lead to a worth of about $26,000,00 per mIle or a rate of about $3J050 00 per mIle per year Staff testIfIed that l'ates 5 ---~- ------- -------~----- . . charged by munICIpalItIes were subeconomlC and cIted rates paId to l-a 11 roads In Long Beach as h1gh as $60.00 per Ilnear foot or $316,800,00 per nnle. The Board upheld the staff's deCISIon. A valId and relIable valuatIon of the pIpelIne nght of way 1 S essentIal to a realIstIc assessment of the potentIal benefIt of renewal. GIven the d1sparIty 1n the present appra1sals, the fact that the CIty'S appraIsal was done by a fIrm speCIalIzIng 1n real estate appraisal, and the developments occurrIng In the area of pIpelIne easement assessment, We belIeve that the CIty should obtaIn an addItIonal appraIsal from an appraIser speCIalIzIng In pIpelIne rights of way. Safety Of The Santa MonIca Segment The pIpe IS protected from external corrOSIon by a cathodIC protectIon system and by a factory-applIed coatIng. PIpelIne IntegrIty IS checked by a hydrostatIC pressure test every SIX months. AddItIonally, the lIne route 15 VIsually Inspected on a regular baSIS. A computer monItorIng system balances Input WIth output and measures pressure at pOInts along the 89-mile lIne to determIne If there 1 s a leak.

LIke the a p p k' a I S e r s , the safety experts used dIfferent methods, and reached predIctably dIfferent conclUSIons However, theIr fInd I r!g s were remarkably conSIstent. The CIty'S consultIng fIrm, NDE Technology, Inc , predIcted spIll rIsk by USIng a reference model constructed from Industry statIstICS and adJusted for the partIcular features of the Santa MonIca segment NDE concluded that a spIll WIthIn the CIty should be expected at least onCe In the next thIrty years. It CIted, as prImary concerns, the age of the pIpelIne, ItS elevatIon, valve spaCIng and operatIon, the InabIlIty of Shell's eXIstIng monItorIng system to detect a leak durIng long tIme perIods each day, and the InabIlIty of the monItorIng system to detect leaks slower than twenty-four barrels per hour NDE recommended Increased VIsual InspectIon, regular hydrostatIC pressure tests, contInuous surveys for pIpelIne defects by InspectIon pIg or magnetIC flux, InstallatIon of addItIonal valves and Improvement of valve controls, regular sampling of the reserVOIr water, ongOIng spIll predIctIon through computer modelIng, and pIpelIne thIckness monItorIng. Shell's safety report, done by Bechtel Petroleum, I nc . , concluded that the pIpelIne Itself was "very safe" based upon Its hIstorlcal record and Its construction features. However, Bechtel acknowledged that though the prObabIlIty of a spIll IS minor, one could occur 7 ---------------------~~----------- --~- -~- . . Though It concluded that the pIpelIne) Itself) was sound! Bechtel also concluded that the CIty'S densIty and partIcular features of the segment posed partIcular hazards If a spIll should occur. Bechtel therefore recommended ImprOVIng the segment's safety features. For example) Bechtel agreed wIth NDE that the pIpelIne's monItoring system was Inadequate. Bechtel recommended a wall thIckne:;;s evaluatIon by an InspectIon pIg. InterlockIng valves WI th pumps and resettIng safety valves to control Internal pressure at the normal operatIng level, addItIon of valves to control the amount of lIne draInage In the event of a spIll) InstallatIon of an addItIonal sensor for flow rate and pressure WhICh would help detect leaks WIthIn the CIty! use of a dynamIC model computer program to detect spIlls and pInpOInt theIr locatIon) and Improved emergency preparedness measures NDE noted a number of partIcular CIrcumstance,,:; WhIch would Increase the lIkelihood of a spIll. These Included the age of the pIpelIne, Its prOXImIty to gas and water lInes and to the reserVOIr and the well WhICh could Increase the chance of corrOSIon, the pOSSIbIlIty of earth movement resultIng from landslIde or earthquake WhICh would stress the pIpe. On the POSItIve SIde, NDE stated that certaIn speCIal condItIons also mIght decrease the rIsk slIghtly' the pIpelIne's locatIon under the center of the street and Its caSIng protect It from external damage Bechtel also noted speCIal CIrcumstances WhIch could make a spIll or leak more lIkely, Notably) the lIne was exposed to DC cun:ent from the PaCIfIC ElectrIC 8 - - ----- ---------- - ------ -- ---~- --- . . Inter-urban raIl cars whIch ran on San VIcente and Santa MonIca Boulevards In addItIon to the usual consequences of any spIll--fIre and explosIon, InJury, property damage, and contamInatIon of water and sOll--both safety reports noted partIcular hazards wIthIn the CIty. Both saId that contamInatIon of the reserVOIr and well could occur. However, Bechtel stated that contamInatIon 1 s unlIkely, even In the event of a spIll or leak, because the reserVOIr IS a reInforced concrete tank WIth one-foot thIck walls Leaks In those walls would result In an outward pressure caused by the confIned water The well IS cased to a depth of 145 feet and sealed by groutIng to a depth of fIfty feet. Bechtel says It IS "InconceIvable" that crude would seep thIS deep and would, Instead, run horIzontally. Both reports also say that If the freeway overpass at CloverfIeld Boulevard were damaged, so that the pIpelIne spIlled onto the freeway, se.lOUS aCCIdents could occur. Both state that traffIc would supply an IgnItIon source and that fIre could result. Both reports note that collapse of the overpass could result from an earthquake would pose serIOUS spIll hazards. Both reports state that s1gnIfIcant envIronmental damage to the ocean and beach would OCCur 1n the event of a maJor spIll because crude would .un through storm drain passages AddItIonally, both note that, 1n rhe event of a spill, the pOSSIbIlIty of InJury or damage 15 1ncreased In the City 9 - - ------- --------~---------------- ----- --- -~- -~ . . . because the llne runs through areas of h1gh populat1on dens1ty and commerc1al and res1dentIal areas Bechtel stated: The res1dent1al locatlon of the Ventura Crude llne w1th1n the C1ty of Santa MonIca results In a hlgh potent1al for personal and mun1clpal property damage In the event of a pIpelIne acc1dent. Bechtel Analys1s, p 8. Bechtel and NDE also agreed that any sp1ll Wh1Ch occurs would be lncreased 1n volume by the fact that the plpellne runs sharply downh1ll Into the C1ty Bechtel stated that the p1pellne's steep drop would produce a hydraulIc head WhICh could result 1n a flow rate of 2-3 tlmes the orIgInal flow if the 11 ne wel'e severed Shell claIms that, Slnce the safety stud1es were done, the computerIzed monItorIng system has been Improved so that 1 t now operates effectIvely despIte varIances 1n llne fIll However, She 11 concedes that numerous other safety lmpl^OVements, suggested In the reports, have not been made, Shell's Act10n For Declaratory And InJunctIve RelIef In May, 1982, Shell flIed SUIt In federal court for declaratory and 1nJunctlve relIef. Its compla1nt does not seek money damages Instead, Shell seeks a declaratIon that the CIty may not. 10 ------------ ------------ -------~------------------- ------- ------- . . 1. Prevent Shell from transporting crude all through the Santa Monica segment 2 Collect a franchise fee greater than the CIty'S costs for serVIces relatIng to the segment plus compensation for the reasonable value of any rights surrendered by the City In conJunctIon with the franchIse 3. Impose safety conditions. Shell also prays for an InjUnctIon reqUiring the City to allow continued use of the segment by Shell upon payment of the fee described In No 2 and prohibItIng the City from Interfering WI th Shell's alleged l' 1 g h t to transport crude through the segment Shell contends that the pipeline IS u1nll Interstate commerce and that the Commerce Clause of the federal Constitution, WhIch states that only Congress may regulate Interstate commerce, prOhIbIts the City from l'efusIng to renew the rIght of way and Ilml.ts the fee WhiCh may be chal-ged. Additionally, Shell contends that federal and state statutes and regulations on pipeline safety preempt the City from ImpoSIllg safety condItions She 11 also contends that charging Shell more than the City charges for other subsurface easements would Violate the constitutional guarantee of equal protection 11 - -----~ --~----- ---------- ----- . . Shell relIes heavIly upon the NInth CIrcuIt Court of Appeal's deCISIon In Western all and Gas Assoc. v. Cory, 726 F. 2d 1340 (1984l. In cory all companIes sued to InvalIdate state regulatIons basing rent for fIghts of way from offshore sources over state tIdelands on the volume of 011 traversIng the fIght of way. The state contended that Its actIvItIes were exempt from the Commerce Clause because It acted In a proprIetary, rather than a regulatory, capacIty. The NInth CIrcuIt concluded that the state occupIed a monopoly pOSItIon becau'3e the all companIes had no alternatIve but to pump theIr crude across the tIdelands. 726 F.2d at 1343, RelYIng upon thIS determInatIon, the Court concluded that the state was not exempt from Commerce Clause scrutIny as a market partIcIpant and that the Commerce Clause applIed. AnalogIzIng the case to Supreme Court cases on "user fees", the NInth CIrCUIt InvalIdated the regulations because there was no suffICIent relatIon between the volumetrIC fee and the all companIes' use of the state land Shell argues that the Cory deCISIon means that the CIty cannot charge more than Its own costs for serVIces relatIng to the pIpelIne plus the reasonable value of rIghts surrendered. The UnIted States Supreme Court accepted Cory for reVIew, and the CIty fIled an amICUS brIef argUIng that the NInth CIrCUIt's deCISIon was Incorrect In late March, the Court affIrmed the NInth CIrCUIt deCISIon by a vote of four to foul- WIth one JustIce not votIng. The equally-dIvIded Court Issued no wrItten opInion. 12 --------- ------- --~------------------------------~------- - ---------~ , . . The CIty contends that the Commerce Clause does not apply because, In franchIsIng, the CIty acts In a proprIetary capaCIty, as "market partIcIpant", rather than as a regulatIng entIty subject to Commerce Clause lImItatIons. AddItIonally, the Cn.y contends that the Commerce Clause does not apply because the pIpelIne IS Intrastate and because the Commerce Clause does not reach matters of local concern. Alternately, If the Commerce Clause does apply, the CIty contends that neIther a refusal to renew nor a fee exceedIng the CIty's costs would ImpermIssIbly burden commerce and that ~ory does not apply because the CIty IS not a monopolIst. FInally, the CIty contends that It IS not preempted from reqUIrIng safety condItIons, that the case does not Involve equal protectIon and that the Tenth Amendment ensures the CIty'S nght to control use of Its public streets. On February 11, 1985, Judge Robert Kelleher heard Shell's motIon for partIal summary Judgment He Issued a tentatIve rulIng, favorable to the CIty, heard argument, and took the motIon under submISSIon. The matter remaIns SUbmItted, and the CIty 1 S proceedIng WIth dIscovery. Shell appears to have lIttle, If any, Incllnat.lon to settle the case It presents Issues of natIonal Importance. Should the CIty prevaIl, other CItIes would certaInly demand substantIal Increases In fees and mIght also InSist upon safety condItIons If Shell prevaIls, CItIes could be compelled to grant nghts of way to 011 companIes, would be 13 ------------------------ -- ----- -- - ~ -- . . . . foreclosed from makIng any profIt on the rIghts of way, and would lose control of theIr streets. The Cltv CouncIl's AuthorIty To Grant A RIght Of Wav CIty Charter SectIon 1600 empowers the CIty to authorIze the use of CIty streets for partIcular " t ran s po t~ tat Ion" uses. These Include franchIses for utIlItIes and other serVIces. In addItIon, the CIty CouncIl possesses the general power to grant rIghts of way and easements. CEQA Requlrement~ The requIrements of the CalIfornIa EnvIronmental QualIty Act ( CEQA) , apply to the grantIng of a pIpelIne franchIse because It IS a "proJect" whIch IS neIther statutorIly nor categorIcally exempt, and grantIng the franchIse may have a substantIal Impact upon the enVIronment. Because an assessment of pIpelIne safety would be central to determInIng envIronmental Impact and because such an assessment requIres technIcal expertIse, we belIeve that the necessary EnVIronmental Impact Report should be prepared by General SerVIces In consultatIon wIth the CIty Attorney's offIce, Of course, General SerVIces may utIlIze the two safety reports whIch have already been obtaIned and WhICh are summarIzed above. 14 --------------------------------~-------------------- . . . Advlsabll1tv Of Conductlna A PublIC HearIng Because Shell and the CIty obtaIned safety reports In 1981, the CIty has had InformatIon on pIpelIne safety for- several years. However, the reports have not been wIdely dIsbursed to the pUDIIC. Moreover, the publIC has had no formal opportunIty to comment on the Issue of whether the franchIse should be renewed and upon what terms The reports IndIcate that the pIpelIne needs safety Improvements and that contInued operatIon WIthout Improvements poses hazards. Any eXIstIng or future hazard would have partIcular Impact upon the neIghborhoods through WhICh the pIpelIne runs and upon those bUSInesses OccupYIng commerCIal property near the pIpelIne. Therefore, we belIeve that the CouncIl should receIve publIC comment and should adopt the accompanYIng resolutIon settIng the matter for hearIng RECOMMENDATION It 15 respectfully recommended that the CIty CouncIl: 1 . AuthorIze a new valuatIon of the pIpelIne easement to be obtaIned and dIrect that an EnVIronmental Impact Report be prepared. 2 .
