Wheatley�v '- Director of Technic I Services SUBJECT: to TIMES ARTICLES ON SEDIMENT Attached are several articles that appeared in today's LA Times regarding sediment contamination of the nation's coasts. The article comes out of a draft report from the US Environmental Protection Agency which reports on sediment data gathered since about 1980. EPA collated this data and looked for areas where levels of specific pollutants, e.g., DDT, PCBs, metals, and other toxics, were high enough to suggest possible risks to human or marine life. Three sites off Orange County's coast are identified as having high risks. Because of the widespread use of chemicals containing compounds such as DDT, PCBs, and metals in the past, these pollutants are often found in the environment, including marine sediments. Both the EPA report and the LA Times article are fair, rather than sensational. Both note that the presence of pollutants in sediments is a cause for some concern, particularly because clean-up in the water environment is expensive and often worse than simply letting the sediments remain. On the other hand, as noted in the articles, much of the data used by EPA in this assessment is quite old. The most recent Orange County data is from the early 1990s. The article on the Orange County issues notes that our monitoring program shows significant declines in pollutants in the area. Things are generally improving. Staff recommends that we follow-up this article with a positive letter to the editor highlighting some issues. We can use this as an opportunity to put our permit and waiver renewal in a positive perspective. Our pretreatment program has resulted in an order of magnitude decline in toxics discharged to the environment since data collection began. Our monitoring program shows improved fish health, and recent testing on a stranded dolphin shows levels of PCBs and DDT an order of magnitude lower than those tested about 10 years ago.

On December 18, 1996, Steven White filed a taxpayer action (the "White Action") in the Orange County Superior Court challcirong the constitutionality of four separate but related eels of the California Legislature. The bills were coacted into law as the California Statutes of 1995, Chapter 745, 746, 747 and 748, respectively and collectively made possible the financing of the County of Orange's (the "County") Plan of Adjustment and allowed the County to emerge from its Chapter 9 case. The Cou nty's initial procedural response to the complaint filed by Mr. White was to remove the action from the State Court to the Bankruptcy Court. Plaintiff White Sled in the Bankruptcy Court a Motion to Abstain and Remand which was heard yesterday by Judge Ryan. At yesterday's hearing, Mr. White's attorney argued that the Bankruptcy Court should abstain from hearing the action and send the White Action back to the(range County Superior Court While Judge Ryan acknowledged that White Action may raise issues related to the County's bankruptcy case, he found that the issues in the White Action were predominantly state law issues. Finding that all of the requirements for mandatory abstention under the Bankruptcy Code existed, Bankruptcy Judge Ryan granted plairrWrs Motion to Abstain and Remand Consequently, the case: will be transferred bark to the Orange County Superior Court and litigated there. s�x+oano Ins•e.l;ars rnw.oxeae.Nxa ceunrr sncs.Im+m s.w rcwc000swcmv v.uev WASHNG cw,oe xanc ew+etasm nmeora.

Case No. 94-222723R County of Orange Litigation Dear Pool Participants: We continue to monitor the status of various post-confirmation issues in the County's bankruptcy case. On Friday, March 14, 1997, Central District Court Judge Cary L. Taylor held a status conference in the County's various actions against non-Merrill Lynch defendants to recover pool-related losses. The purpose of the status conference was to discern the impact of the discovery and trial dates previously set in the Merrill Lynch action on the non-Merrill Lynch defendants. After funding that the dates set in the Merrill Lynch action would not unduly affect the non-Merrill Lynch defendants, Judge Taylor confirmed the trial data in the Merrill Lynch action as September 15, 1998. Trial dates in the non-Merrill Lynch actions will be set by the Court at a later time. At the status conference, we alerted the Court of the Pool Committee's concern regarding the burdensome discovery propounded on certain Pool Participants by Merrill Lynch We requested that the Court limit These Pool Participant depositions so that the depositions could not be reopened by non-Merrill Lynch defendants at a later date. The Court suggested that affected Pool Participants bring motions for protective orders should the reopening of than Pool Participant depositions be sought by non-Merrill Lynch defendants. In the interim, we are attempting to resolve this issue by way of stipulation with various non. Merrill Lynch defendants and will notify you of the outcome of our efforts.

Box 100 901 P Street Sacramento, CA 95814 Subject: Comments Re: 1997 Proposed Amendments to the California Ocean Plan Dear Chairman Caffrey: The Southern California Alliance of Publicly Owned Treatment Works (SCAP) is a non-profit organization formed in 1992 to provide a common voice for the POTW community in southern California regarding regulatory issues related to wastewater treatment. We currently have forty- seven(47) member agencies representing a population of over 10 million users. We have reviewed the proposed amendments to the Ocean Plan and Functional Equivalent Document (FED), and support adoption of the proposed amendments. We appreciate the State Water Resource Control Board's (SWRCB) responsiveness to our comments on the amendments that were originally proposed in 1995. We remain ready and willing to work with the Board to resolve outstanding issues related to the development of a reliable method for determining compliance for water quality objectives that are at or below detection limits, as well as to assess the attainability and economic impacts of such objectives. With respect to topics not resolved during this set of amendments to the Ocean Plan, we have several comments. While recognizing the resource constraints the Board has had in addressing the long list of issues identified in the 1991-92 triennial review process, we respectfully request that, following adoption of this set of amendments, the SWRCB provide a workplan and schedule to interested parties to ensure that the remaining issues are addressed in a timely manner. SCAP recommends that the SWRCB address the following issues on a priority basis: • Bacterial Monitoring -- Monitoring for both coliforms and enterococcus organisms since the 1990 amendments to the Ocean Plan has been very expensive and frustrating for dischargers. Although we recognize that the State Board is waiting for the completion of a study on this issue, we recommend that this issue be a top priority for resolution, and that dual monitoring requirements be discontinued as soon as possible. The update on this issue in Appendix D of the FED stated that the final report of this study is expected to be available in mid 1997; we would like to receive a copy of the report for review at that time. • Bacteria!Standards jar Body Contact and Shellfish -- The SWRCB is considering changes to the bacterial standards for body contact and shellfish harvesting. We believe that the SWRCB 30290 aaMn Vqn aaa0.Sue 113 SMJunCxoakm CA 92675 Fu 714746901%70 71N489 7676 should place a high priority on addressing this issue, in concert with resolution of the issue of which indicator organisnt(s)will be used lbr monitoring. • denre 7oxieiry -- The update in Appendix D on acute toxicity testing requirements notes that EPA published revised acute toxicity methods in 1993 that use larval organisms rather than .juvenile organisms, and that the younger test organisms are generally more sensitive. The update further states that the SWRCB intends to continue reviewing the issues with representatives from industry, government, and academia. We would welcome the opportunity to work with the SWRCB to resolve this issue. However, it is our understanding that, in the meantime, the SWRCB intends to require the use of the updated EPA protocols in new or reissued NPDES pennits, which will pose significant compliance problems for dischargers unless mixing zones or dilution credits are allowed because of the greater sensitivity of the test organisms. This change in the ability to comply would not be associated with any actual change in receiving water conditions or in effluent quality. In recognition of this, we request that the SWRCB adopt an interim policy as soon as possible that directs permit writers to include mixing zones for acute toxicity limitations in permits until this issue is resolved. • Dc.ralinarion Discharges -• Salt loading and salinity management are important issues in southern California, due to high salinity levels in some water supply sources and the increasing use of recycled water. The U.S. Bureau of Reclamation and Metropolitan Water District of Southern California (MWD) are currently conducting a study to examine the feasibility of different salinity management strategies, and desalination is one option that will be analyzed. The ecological impacts of brine discharges has been identified during this triennial review as an issue needing further research, but we understand that you do not intend to pursue this research at this time due to resource constraints. We strongly encourage you to work with the Bureau of Reclamation and MIND as they explore issues related to desalination, and to make this topic a high priority for future work. Thank you again for the opportunity to comment. We look forward to working with you in the future as additional issues regarding the Ocean Plan are addressed. Please contact Sharon Green at (310)699-7411,ext. 2503,should you have any questions about our comments.

The 0 Sanitation Districts is opposed to AB 116, unless amended. As written, AB Cld8. 116 would require a public hearing to be held "within the city or county" in Anaheim which biosolids land application is to occur. The Districts strongly supports Brea Buane Perk and encourages the public hearing process, but AB 116, as written would GvPrees result in an unrealistic and burdensome number of public hearings for a Fountain Valley FMerton regional water quality control board to conduct. Huntington Beech Irvine to H.bre The Districts are aware of your constituency's concerns over access to public Le Palma Los Alamitos hearings regarding biosolids land application permits. We believe that the Nea,aart Beech following suggested underlined and italicized amendments to AB 116, if Orange added to the Water Code, would adequately address these concerns while P/ecantle Santa Are not unduly burdening the regulatory agencies: Seel Beach Storm raedn "No site specific waste discharge requirement permit requiring a public Ville Perk Yarba Linda hearing shall be issued by a regional board to any person for the County of Orange spreading of sewage sludgebiosolids or other biological solids unless the regional board holds a public hearing within the city or county in eenitery 01etelets which the spreading is to occur.

Irvin. Nench Biosolids land application is considered a safe process by the United States Environmental Protection Agency (EPA). EPA's 40 CFR Part 503 regulation provides a sound technical basis for biosolids land application. The EPA performed extensive research on the composition of biosolids and the A Public M.M.ater and Environmental Manegement Agency committed to Protecting the Environment Since 1954 s a" The Honorable George Runner Page 2 March 4, 1997 potential impact of biosolids land application on human health and the environment. The research included numerous studies of biosolids effect on groundwater, air, soil, and surface runoff. The EPA utilized an extremely conservative approach in the development of their regulations. In light of EPA's endorsement of biosolids land application, and the considerable amount of existing regulation, including many county ordinances, any increased burden on biosolids land application permitting will result in an substantial and unnecessary increase in POTW operating cost that would ultimately be passed on to the ratepayer.

Tom Dawes (CSDOC) and Beth Flammini (OCWD) gave a status report on both CSOOC's Strategic Plan and the Joint CSDOC/OCWD Orange County Reclamation Project. The CSDOC's Boards of Directors on February 26, 1997 will consider approval of an agreement for cost sharing with OCWD on the OCR Project and the adaption of the OCR Project as an element of the Districts' Strategic Plan (on February 26 both items were approved). CSDOC is giving new and heavy emphasis to both water reclamation and water conservation. 2. Joe Berg of Municipal Water District of Orange County(MWDOC) discussed a method whereby CSDOC could participate in ongoing future water conservation efforts. It appears that an agreement with MWDOC which supports and enhances a toilet rebate program and expansion of educational and marketing opportunities may be the easiest vehicle. CSDOC Staff will request funding in fiscal year 1997-1998 which begins in July for this effort as part of its budget preparation. 3. Bob Williams of MWD discussed a very large water conservation retrofit program with one of the Sanitation Districts' largest dischargers, Kimberly Clark of Fullerton. Nancy Wheatley, CSDOC's Director of Technical Services, will be the control person to work with Barbara Nation of MWD on this effort. CSDOC Staff indicated that they believe the CSDOC's Boards of Directors would support a large water Conservation program, providing real benefits for the Sanitation Districts could be demonstrated. MWD will remain the Contact with Kimberley Clark. CSDOC Staff requested a copy of the economic analysis prepared by Kimberley Clark on the water retrofit program so that Sanitation Districts' charges are correctly included. Nancy Wheatley indicated that CSDOC's source Control program supports efforts by private industry to reduce both Bow and strength in industrial discharges. 4. Paul Gustafson of CDM gave an update on the water conservation element of the Districts' Strategic Plan. It was decided that members of the Water Conservation Committee would review the 75% draft submittal. Tom Dawes said he would send copies for review after an initial review by Districts' Staff, including Operations and Maintenance Director Bob Ooten. (Copies were sent to Mariann Long, Barbara Nation, Joe Berg and Beth Flammini on March 3, 1997.) 5. Many members explored a role by which CSDOC could become signatory to the California Urban Water Conservation Committee to support the BMP's in water conservation. It was decided that Angie Berdanis would attend a Committee Meeting on February 27, to learn more about joining the CUWCC. Angie will report on the recommended plan in the next Water Conservation Meeting. Attached is a copy of the attendance sheet. The next meeting is tentatively scheduled for March 24, 1997, 9:30- 11:00 a.m., in the Sanitation Districts' Office.

VIA: Cheryl Creson, Chair l� SUBJECT: President Clinton's Proposed FY 1998 Budget President Clinton announced his budget proposal for fiscal year 1998 on Thursday, February 6, 1997. The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) would receive a total of$7.6 billion for their programs under the administration's proposed budget. This figure is an increase of nearly $850 million, or 12 percent over EPA's fiscal year 1997 budget. EPA Administrator, Carol Browner, noted that additional resources coupled with program re-directions mean more than $900 million in new, high priority investments for protecting health and the environment. These high priority investments include further expansion of Community Right-to-Know projects, revitalizing the environment and economic health of cities, designating ten rivers throughout the country for cleanup, and developing additional Brownfields efforts. The House and Senate Appropriations Committee will release hearing schedules shortly. The House hearings will begin in mid-April with Senate hearings to follow not later than May. The following briefly reviews the highlights of some of the key environmental issues of interest. Increase in Funding for Water Quality Program The President's 1998 Budget requests $274.9 million for the Water Quality Program. This is an increase of$2.0 million from 1997. As part of the President's initiative, the Water Quality Program will be focusing on increasing the Public's Right-to-Know, as well as attempting to establish partnerships to assist local communities in addressing water quality problems. EPA is requesting a significant increase in funding to support the development of effluent guidelines and its Nonpoint Source (NPS) programs. In addition, this program also plans on strengthening "Community-Based Environmental Protection;" assisting states with Total Maximum Daily Loads (TMDLs) and ensuring environmental accountability through better compliance. Water Infrastructure Financing Highlights The President's Budget provides a total of$1.8 billion for State Revolving Funds(SRF's) within the State and Tribal Assistance Grants Appropriation. This is a decrease of$100 million from 1997. The 1998 Budget is requesting $1.075 billion for CW-SRF of which approximately $77 million is slated for California. EPA is also requesting$725 million for the DW-SRF. In addition, EPA will continue with U.S.-Mexico border projects($150 million) and assisting needy communities($113 million). CASA Federal Legislative&Liaison Committee March 5, 1997 Page 2 EPA Focuses on Implementing New Requirements to the Safe Drinking Water Act The 1998 President's Budget requests$105.3 million for the Agency's Drinking Water program. This is an increase of$10.8 million over 1997. With this proposed increase in funding,EPA plans to focus on establishing risk-based drinking water standards as well as working with the states to conduct required source water assessments. The EPA Budget Summary states that"In 1998, the Agency's highest priority in the Drinking Water Program is to protect human health from microbiological contaminants and disinfectant/disinfection byproducts(M-DBP)." Other areas that EPA will focus on during 1998 are regulating underground injection wells and providing strong enforcement in ensuring drinking water supplies meet SDWA requirements. EPA Gives State. Local &Tribal Grants Continued Technical and Financial Assistance as well as Flexibility in Manaeine their Environmental Pro ams In 1998, the President's Budget requests a total of$715.3 million for 17 program grants for state and tribal governments. This is an increase of$41.0 million over 1997. EPA will continue supporting state and tribal programs to help to better establish their environmental protection programs.

Box 8127 Fountain Valley, CA 92728-8127 Dear Michelle, On behalf of the Santa Ana River Basin Section (SARBS) of the California Water Environment Association (CWEA), I welcome you on your appointment to the SARBS Board of Directors as the local section's Public Education Chair. A memorandum of introduction has also been sent to the CWEA, Inc. and the state's Public Education Committee Chairs, Richard Lee of the City of Los Angeles Hyperion Treatment Plant and Christina Ragsdale of the Sacramento Regional Water Treatment Plant. We appreciate your volunteering to help us in our public outreach endeavors. Previously, BARBS has sponsored some Career Days at local area junior high schools by providing speakers from various backgrounds like Operations and Engineering. You have been recommended highly and we look forward to your contribution. The SARBS Board of Directors meets once a month, usually on the first or second Thursday, from 10:00 a.m. to 12:00 noon, and provides lunch. You will receive an agenda package prior to each meeting. We also encourage attendance at our dinner meetings and other activities. If you have any questions or suggestions, please feel free to contact any of the Board Officers. I can be reached at (714)453-5842. Again, thank you and welcome aboard. Raa �� yy Resendez, ARBS President Irvine Ranch Water District P.O. Box 57000 Irvine, CA 92619-7000 RR:paz a:%MT-RRLTR.DOC XC: Judy Wilson,Assistant General Manager, County Sanitation Districts of Orange County SARBS Board of Directors P e7 March 19, 1997 MEMORANDUM TO: Jean Tappan Executive Assistant FROM: Layne Baroldi dp Regulatory Specialist James Colston L Regulatory Spedi alist SUBJECT: Legislative Bill Summary for Don McIntyre's Letter to the Boards of Directors The purpose of this memorandum is to provide you with a brief summary of the most relevant legislative bills being tracked by ECM staff for Don McIntyre's letter to the Boards of Directors. Biosolids Lenislation AB 116 (Runner, R-Antelope Valley) Biological Solids This bill would have required a Regional Water Quality Control Board (RWQCB) to hold a public hearing within the city or county in which biosolids land application is to occur before issuing a permit. In a letter to Assemblyman Runner, the Districts strongly supported and encouraged the public hearing process, but stated AB 116, as written, would result in an unrealistic and burdensome number of public hearings for a RWQCB to conduct. In response to numerous letters of opposition, AB 116 has been amended to require only notification of city and county officials within a Regional Board's jurisdiction. As currently written, this bill can be supported by the Districts since it applies to all Regional Board permits, and it does not single out biosolids. HR 289 (Serrano, D-New York) Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act This bill would require consumer notification on food products produced from crops, livestock, or poultry raised on land, or feed grown on land on which biosolids were applied. If passed as written, this bill would have a detrimental impact on the future of biosolids land application. Staff has worked closely with AMSA and CASA on HR 289. CSDOC • P.D.Box 8127 • Fountain valley,CA 92728•8127 0 (714)9624411 9 N� 9 Jean Tappan Page 2 of 3 March 19, 1997 AMSA staff has been in contact with the bill's author. AMSA does not believe that this bill will pass. POTWs were advised not to respond because our response may cause increased opposition to biosolids land application resulting support for HR 289. Wastewater Leaislation SB 105 (Ayala) Water Quality: Contamination Originally this bill required POTWs to notify the public after a spill of untreated wastewater. However, due to the efforts of CASA and staff, the bill was amended to require the Office of Emergency Services to make the notifications to the local health care agency (they are currently responsible for public notification of health threats). AB 11 (Escutia) Water Pollution This bill would restrict the protection traditionally known as "permit as a shield." Discharges which are otherwise in compliance with an NPDES permit may result in criminal or civil liability due to other regulations, such as the Fish and Game Code. AB 374 (Kuehl) Marine Life Refuges This bill would establish marine refuges in the ocean waters south of the City of Malibu and Point Dume. Although there are no current impacts on the Districts, staff is watching this bill for potential amendments. AB 1464 (Strom-Martin) Water Quality This bill would require the State Water Resources Control Board to identify and protect coastal watersheds identified as "Outstanding National Resources." This bill would also establish 3 pilot alternative municipal wastewater treatment methods (such as the use of wetlands) for coastal communities. Watching for potential impacts. Air Leaislation SB 1247 (Hayden) - Particulate Matter This bill will establish a more stringent time frame than EPA's recently proposed air pollutant standard for Particulate Matter (PM,.,). This may create overly stringent regulations for internal combustion engines such as the Districts' Central Power y Jean Tappan Page 3 of 3 March 19, 1997 Generation System Engines. Because there is a lack of information on the existing levels of PM=5, the proposed time frame may not be feasible. SB 423 (Hurtt) -Voluntary Noncompliance Disclosure This bill would provide immunity from civil and criminal penalties for voluntary disclosure of environmental violations discovered from self-performed environmental audits. This would only protect the Districts from voluntary disclosure to state or local environmental agencies. This is applicable to all environmental media compliance issues. AB 278 (Escutia) - Children's Environmental Health Protection Act of 1997 This bill would require the threshold exposure levels of toxic air contaminants and the ambient air quality standards to be protective of the most susceptible age group such as infants, children, or the elderly. The results of this will increase the stringency of threshold exposure levels for toxic air contaminants and the ambient air quality standards. This may increase the Districts' notification requirements and require the control of air toxics emissions and other types of air pollutants. Miscellaneous Legislation SB 147 (Ayala) Local Agency Borrowing Originally this bill required a vote of ratepayers for the use of certificates of participation (COPs) to incur indebtedness. The bill was amended to eliminate the ratepayer vote requirement, but it now requires: 10-day newspaper notification of the Board vote (1/8 page ad); a public hearing (not on the consent calendar) to vote on incurring the indebtedness; a roll call vole of the Board; and a thorough presentation to the Board including an accounting of the total debt and repayment schedule. S 8 (Smith) Superfund Reauthorization AMSA is working at the federal level to include an exemption to Superfund liability for POTWs for non-negligent activities that result in contamination. At least two POTWs have been found liable for contamination from their collection systems which were caused by unauthorized discharges to the system.

PUBLIC COMMENTS There were no comments by any member of the public. Minutes of the Steering Committee ' Page ly February 26, 1997 RECEIVE, FILE AND APPROVE MINUTES OF PREVIOUS MEETING MOTION: Receive, file and approve draft minutes of the January 22, 1997 Steering Committee meeting. Motion carried,with Director Swan abstaining because he was not in attendance. REPORT OF THE COMMITTEE CHAIR The Committee Chair did not make a report. REPORT OF THE GENERAL MANAGER The General Manager reported on the AWWA/WEF Joint Management conference he attended this week. The major focus was competitiveness and privatization. Orange County, Florida has gone through the same process the Districts' is pursuing and has made impressive progress. They experienced some of the same things we are encountering. Judy Wilson announced that staff has been notified that proposed Senate Bill 147, which requires a vote of the people for future city, county and special districts indebtedness has been amended to eliminate the cities and counties. CASA will be contacted to verify this change. Blake Anderson reported that staff is still trying to set a date for the next Joint Coordination Committee meeting. The OCWD suggested March 6, but Thursdays are not good for our members. It was decided to set the meeting for Tuesday, March 25 at 5:30 p.m. It will be held at OCWD. Bill Mills, General Manager of OCWD, is in Washington trying to get funding for the OCR Project. Twenty million dollars was appropriated by Congress for this project. The OCWD is also trying to get all water district members together to discuss this project and seek support. Director Swan indicated that there are still some significant questions that have to be answered by OCWD, including handling the anticipated increase in flows in the Santa Ana River from the inland basin, early construction of a distribution system to disperse the reclaimed water, and the level of commitment to this project. The only benefit to the Districts is the ability to discharge the processed water directly to the river. The viability of the project and the total price must be determined early on. The next Ad Hoc Committee meeting for the Strategic Plan is tentatively scheduled for March 13. This will be rescheduled to a date before the next RAC meeting on April 3. Staff is meeting with IRWD, City of Newport Beach and OCWD to begin discussions on the logistics of their three-way agreement. There are some permitting issues that have to be clarified. Activities at the last RAC meeting were discussed. Director McGuigan expressed concern that industry may not be fairly represented on the committee. Minutes of the Steering Committee Page 3 February 26, 1997 REPORT OF GENERAL COUNSEL General Counsel did not make a report. DISCUSSION ITEMS (Nos. 1-5) 1. Consider request to change July Joint Boards Meetino date. Because of a conflict with a League of Cities meeting, Chair Collins requested that the date of the meeting be changed to July 30, 1997. Action: Move the July Joint Boards Meeting from July 23, 1997 to July 30, 1997. 2. Discussion of Plant No. 2 Construction Management Offices and the Warehouse. David Ludwin, Director of Engineering, provided information on activities involved in securing office space for the Construction Management staff at Plant 2. The complex was destroyed by fire last month. Temporary trailers have been rented and moved on site at the cost of about$320/mo. Several options were discussed including replacing the destroyed trailers with purchased trailers, in which case the insurance coverage would be about$68,000 plus the coverage for personal property and document restoration (about$20,000); continuing to rent trailers and receive insurance payment for only personal property and document restoration; locate space for staff in existing buildings and receive payment for only personal property and document restoration; build a small, stand alone structure at a cost of about$300,000- $400,000, which would be offset by insurance payments of about$200,000 plus $20,000 for property and document restoration; or incorporate space in the new Maintenance Building by change order, or in the warehouse building, receiving insurance payment for only personal property and document restoration. After discussion, staff was directed to complete additional studies, addressing the level of future capital program with staffing needs at Plant 2, migration for the long tens and span of control, evaluate expanding the existing control center or an annex to the Maintenance Building Staff has discussed the improvements planned for the"temporary", existing 20-year-old warehouse with the City of Huntington Beach. In order to meet building code requirements, the cost to rehabilitate the building for the warehouse's changed needs, install a new roof, construct loading docks, and improve drainage around the building, and meet Title 24 code requirements and permitting requirements would be about $550,000 to $600,000, well over the authorized$440,000. Three warehouse options were offered for consideration: 1) Increase authorized funding to rehabilitate the existing, 20,000 SF, steel-frame warehouse according to revised needs; 2) Construct the previously-proposed warehouse for ultimate build out; and 3) Construct a smaller, 24,000 SF warehouse which would include additional office space. Minutes of the Steering Committee Page 4 February 26, 1997 Staff was directed to explain the need and increased benefit of the proposed smaller warehouse and to prepare more detailed estimated cost comparisons and submit to the Planning, Design and Construction Committee. A tour of the existing warehouse should also be considered so that new committee members can became familiar with the facilities. 3. Agenda Streamlining: General Counsel requests that procedures relating to processing construction stop notices be revised. Action: The recommended action authorizing General Counsel to routinely Appear and defend the interests of the Districts upon receipt of Summons and Compliant for Stop Notices was approved unanimously. 4. Request from County of Orange for Lease for 800 megahertz Communication Facility at Plant No. 2: Ed Hodges, Director of General Services Administration described the proposed facilities and presented overlays showing the visual impact of the 150-foot tower. The Committee members agreed to accommodate the County as long as their facilities did not interfere with the Districts' operations. The Districts will not be involved in any permitting or design issues required by the City of Huntington Beach. This project will be discussed with the District 11 Directors. 5. Review Agenda Items Scheduled to be Presented to Committees in March: Because of the light agendas, presentations will be made to help the new committee members better understand the functions and operations of the Districts. OTHER BUSINESS, COMMUNICATIONS OR SUPPLEMENTAL AGENDA ITEMS, IF ANY Director Singer questioned the status of record drawings. Staff reported that Chris Dahl, Information Technology Manager has this as a critical goal for '97/98 and he will be working with the new Records Management Specialist to develop policies and procedures for the departments, starting with the Engineering Department and the Board Secretarys office.

PUBLIC COMMENTS There were no comments by any member of the public. APPROVAL OF MINUTES The minutes of the February 5, 1996 Operations, Maintenance and Technical Services Committee meeting were approved as drafted. �l Minutes of the Operations, Maintenance 4 and Technical Services Committee Page 2 March 5, 1997 REPORT OF THE COMMITTEE CHAIR Director McGuigan yielded to Director of GSA, Ed Hodges. Ed Hodges gave background information and an update on the Compressed Natural Gas Station (CNG) and an update on the Fueling Facility. THE COMPRESSED NATURAL GAS STATION (CNG). Background: We received authority under South Coast Air Quality Management District (SCAQMD)AB2766 program to do this project. We began a partnership with public and private businesses. Other than SCAQMD and ourselves, the other partners contributed $1.2 million. Our responsibility to this project is to own and operate a CNG station with a cost estimate of just over$1 million. AQMD contributed$447,000. The project is to convert 10 of the Pimo Gro diesel engines to a dual-fuel configuration. This means they will bum a mixture of diesel fuel and compressed natural gas. Converting the engines over to CNG would reduce the CO emissions in excess of 270,000 pounds, the knox emissions 213,000 pounds and the particulates another 18,000 pounds over the five-year life of the engines. U13date We will now purchase three diesel-control engines. The project now is for a total of 13 engines - 10 CNG engines, and 3 diesel engines. Last month we installed the first test engine. The engine is receiving rave reviews from the contractor, Pimo Gro. Tomorrow we will meet with the contractor to go over the status of this first engine and when we will phase in the remaining engines installed. Our drop of 104 loads a week to 70loads a week to Pimo Gro means we will not be able to support a 13-vehicle project. We will support a 5 CNG vehicle and a 3 diesel fuel project. SCAQMD does understand our drop in engines and are flexible in their requirements of the project. If Tule Ranch agrees, we will be placing 5 engines with them. This would mean we would have two sites. Ed will keep us informed. FUELING FACILITY The Fueling Facility will be located adjacent to the Biosolids Hauling Station. We will be selling this gas to Pimo Gro, private citizens and the public for a profit which will offset our general funds or user fees increases. We will make approximately $104-$120,000 a year which will take until Year 2007 for us to break even. We expect the station to be up and running by mid-summer this year. REPORT OF THE GENERAL MANAGER Don McIntyre, General Manager, reported that the first meeting with the Water Districts on our joint project on the Reclamation Project will meet tomorrow night (March 6). We have three members on that joint committee. We expect that at this meeting we will be establishing the goals, objectives and expectations. This project will be one of the major issues of this organization - not only dollar- wise but also in benefits of offsetting as much as 20% of the potable water supply of Orange County. The Boards will be kept apprised. Minutes of the Operations, Maintenance and Technical Services Committee Page 3 March 5, 1997 REPORT OF THE CHIEF OPERATIONS OFFICER The Chief Operations Officer, Blake P. Anderson, announced that Tom Dawes announced that he will be retiring in March of this year. Blake expressed our appreciation of everything Tom has contributed to the Districts. The Sangermano trial - pretrial motions were heard by the Judge today,jury selection begins tomorrow (March 6). REPORT OF THE CHIEF ADMINISTRATIONS OFFICER No report was given. REPORT OF THE DIRECTOR OF OPERATIONS AND MAINTENANCE Robert Dolan, Director of Operations and Maintenance, gave a report on the State of the Department. Handouts were provided. Included in the handout is the previously requested information on the vehicle accidents. There will be a report next month from the Districts' Assessment and Reinvention Team (DART). During discussions about the I.C. engines, staff was requested to consider a study whereby we consider from scratch what is the best way we can reduce costs by optimally using the methane (digester gas) in addition to how deregulations will affect the operation of the Districts' generation facilities. We haven't studied the use of the methane gas since 1987 and technology has changed since then. This would be a good opportunity to do it now under the Strategic Plan. O&M Monthly Report Operations& Maintenance Monthly Report: An Operations& Maintenance (O&M) Monthly Report for the OMITS Committee is submitted for review. The report focuses on compliance, safety, financial projects and performance measure for O&M and is intended to provide the Committee members O&M information on a timely basis.

SCCWRP was established under a joint powers agreement(JPA) among the County Sanitation Districts of Orange County (CSDOC), the County Sanitation Districts of Los Angeles County, the City of Los Angeles, the City of San Diego, and the Ventura Regional Sanitation Districts, which has since withdrawn. In 1990, SCCWRP was reorganized to add to the governing commission representatives of the regulatory community which oversees the activities of wastewater treatment agencies. SCCWRP is now governed by a nine-member commission made up of representatives from each of the four wastewater agencies and five regulatory agencies (EPA, the State Water Resources Control Board and the three Regional Water Quality Control Boards in coastal southern California). Funding for SCCWRP has been provided by the four participating wastewater agencies using a formula which apportions the annual budget among the four wastewater treatment agencies based on flow. The funding level for the 1996-97 fiscal year was $1.4 million. CSDOC's contribution was approximately $300,000. The administration of SCCWRP is provided by an executive director who is responsible for the administration and technical activities of SCCWRP as well and planning and research activities. SCCWRP has professional and technical staff numbering approximately 25. The objectives of SCCWRP have been to study and determine the effects of discharges of treated effluent from publicly owned wastewater treatment plants (POTWs) on the open ocean waters of Southern California. Over the years, SCCWRP has produced a considerable amount of valuable scientific date on the marine environment which has been helpful to regulators, legislators, operators and the interested public in understanding the marine environment and the impacts of the POTWs. SCCWRP reports have been used in making many decisions regarding the operation and regulation of the POTWs, including support for CSDOC's present treatment strategy. This fourth JPA marks another milestone in SCCWRP's history. During the 25 years since the passage of the federal Clean Water Act, the POTWs have provided better treatment, both at the treatment plants and through programs such as source control, thereby decreasing the impacts of discharges from these facilities. That means that other sources of pollution, whose effects were formerly masked by the impacts from municipal RwW omen» Page 2 of 3 J:1W M351 MECM\SCCWRP.AIT dischargers, have come into focus as deserving more scientific and regulatory attention. In particular, urban runoff, often associated with wet weather, is a major and poorly understood source of pollution at our region's coastal and offshore waters. The SCCWRP Commission has a new goal to increase the research on urban runoff and stormwater and has directed the Executive Director of SCCWRP to develop a plan to expand the participation in SCCWRP to include agencies and businesses which contribute to urban runoff and, consequently, on the quality of the marine environment. In anticipation of increases in funding from other sources and to better recognize that the benefits derived from SCCWRP's research program are not proportional to the size of the agencies, the four funding agencies have developed a plan to level the funding for all four agencies and reduce the contribution from each of them. The JPA includes the following funding requirements: Agency FY 97-98 FY 98999 FY 99AQ I°Y 00-01 Los Angeles $ 350,000 $ 300,000 $ 275,000 $ 2,5r.,0,000 Cfr ' Il p\p San Diego 300,000 300,000 275,000 250,000 Los Angeles County 350,000 300,000 275,000 250,000 District TOTAL $1,300,000 $1,200,000 $1,100,000 $1,000,000 Staff recommends approval of the"Fourth Amended Joint Powers Agreement Confirming the Creation of an Agency Known as the Southern California Coastal Water Research Project Authority."

Detailed Specification 52-2191.2 specifies that three Dissolved Air Flotation(DAF)Thickeners be operational at all times. The temporary Waste Activated Sludge(WAS) bypass design intent was to allow modifications to the three existing DAF Thickeners before the new DAF thickeners are completed. The bypass pumped WAS to Plant No.2 for processing. The system was installed and operated. However, Plant No.2 experienced unforeseen digestion and activated sludge plant upsets. The Operations Department shut down the bypass to avoid possible noncompliance with operational permits and the subsequent violations. Consequently, no contract time savings were realized. Contractor is being reimbursed for direct cost associated with this bypass with no overhead or profit. The WAS bypass system is left in place at the request of the Operations Department. The temporary Secondary Effluent(SE) bypass design pumps effluent from the existing west side secondary clarifier channel to the east side channel to ensure adequate plant water supply for both the Orange County Water District and the Plant Water System. The bypass allowed construction of the new clarifier facilities before four east side Aeration Basins are retrofitted with new diffuser systems as described in Detailed Specification 52-5122.8. v Page 4 of 7 COUNTY SANITATION DISTRICTS OF ORANGE COUNTY 10844 ELUS AVENUE, P.O.

CEQA requires that public agencies provide a full disclosure document and evaluate the environmental consequences of various actions and projects before they can be approved and implemented. The Districts originally adopted Rs own CEQA guidelines and implementing procedures In 1988. These have been updated as needed to meet staff needs and comply with newly adopted State requirements. This 1997 update Is the first complete revision to the guidelines since their adoption and will be used by staff and others in fulfilling the most recent State of California CEQA guidelines and requirements. a..i..aomesr Page 1 of 2 -AW P.DTAIE NGIPDC97\MARl97-0I. The Procedures Manual contains a step-by-step"cookbook'on how to deal with specific provisions of CEOA. The manual, which is included as the first part of the two part Procedures and Guidelines Manual,outlines each step and provides guidance for staff in implementing the CEOA Guidelines which are included as Part 2. CEOA PROCEDURES MANUAL The CEOA Procedures Manual or"Manual of Practice"is for use by CSOOC staff in fulfilling CEOA requirements for individual projects. The step-by-step procedures are provided along with appropriate forms and documentation to aid staff in fulfilling CEOA requirements for individual projects. CEOA GUIDELINES Guidelines for implementation of the provisions of CEOA are periodically updated and published by the Governor's Office of Planning and Research. The latest set of Guidelines was issued in 1996. The CEOA Guidelines are intended to aid in fulfilling the requirements of CEOA and can be adopted in total by local agencies or can be modified as appropriate for adoption and use by individual agencies. The new District Guidelines provide much more specific listing of exempt facififies and activities which can be used to expedite processing and reduce paperwork while assuring that CEOA requirements are met and the environment is being protected. Use of the Program Environmental Impact Report for the Master Plan has allowed the District to dramatically reduce subsequent project-by-project CEQA documentation resulting in substantial cost savings and expediting project implementation. Many of the provisions of the CEOA Guidelines are not applicable to the Districts and these are so indicated in the set of Guidelines which have been prepared specifically for the Districts. These Guidelines can be periodically modified, as appropriate or as needed to be kept up to date. Any major changes will be brought before the Districts'Boards of Directors for approval.

PUBLIC COMMENTS No comments were made. APPROVAL OF MINUTES It was moved, seconded and duly carried to approve the draft minutes of the February 19, 1997, meeting of the Finance, Administration and Human Resources Committee. Minutes of Finance, Admin. and Human Resources Committee Page 2 March 12, 1997 REPORT OF THE COMMITTEE CHAIR The Committee Chair had no report. REPORT OF THE GENERAL MANAGER General Manager Don McIntyre reported that staff is currently involved in the 1997-98 Budget process and it is expected to be presented to the Committee on schedule. Staff is also completing a five-year staffing forecast which will be presented to the Committee next month. The staffing plan is consistent with the Districts' program to reduce staffing by 5% in the first three years and, in some cases, it goes beyond three years to four or five years. REPORT OF ASSISTANT GENERAL MANAGER-ADMINISTRATION The Assistant General Manager of Administration Judy Wilson announced that there would be no closed session tonight to discuss labor negotiations, since there was nothing to report. She advised that we are ready to sign contracts with OCFA and 501, once the contracts are in final form. Negotiations with the Supervisory/Professional group (SPMT) has made very little progress. Judy advised she, Don McIntyre and Mike Peterman will be meeting with Mark Reed, SPMT's negotiator, during the early part of next week to convey the Districts'position very clearly. It is expected that negotiations will be very difficult. Both sides are close to declaring an impasse. Mrs. Wilson responded to Committee questions that if an impasse is declared, the next logical step would be to work with a mediator rather than unilaterally implementing the contract. Since the SPMT's contract does not expire until July 1, 1997, no retroactive pay would be involved during an impasse situation. REPORT OF ASSISTANT GENERAL MANAGER-OPERATIONS The Assistant General Manager of Operations had no report. REPORT OF THE DIRECTOR OF FINANCE Finance Director Gary Streed advised the Committee that the reports before them were distributed just prior to the meeting. A one-page summary of the 1997-98 Budget Policies and Issues reflects the changes the Committee made in February. This summary was included in the February Board package. The monthly Treasurers Report was also distributed prior to the meeting in accordance with policy. A brief report entitled "A Look at PIMCO, the Districts' External Investment Management Firm,"was prepared in response to Director Sullivan's request at the February Joint Boards meeting. The reports explains the Districts' investment practice and the use of external managers, and was provided for the Committee's review prior to the Board mailing next week . Chair Brown requested that the Committee review the report and direct any questions to Gary Streed within a week Mr. Streed reported that the monthly COP monitoring report mailed to the Committee in the agenda package reflects rates at the end of February. Rates are typically at their highest at month's end and go down at the beginning of the month . Mr. Streed stated that since the mailing, rates have gone down considerably. Today rates are 1.75% and 1.85%, and are at the lowest they have been since July of last year. Minutes of Finance, Admin. and Human Resources Committee Page 3 `! March 12, 1997 REPORT OF THE DIRECTOR OF HUMAN RESOURCES The Director of Human Resources Mike Peterman reported that the first hearing concerning the workplace investigation was scheduled to begin on Tuesday, March 11, however, it was continued until Friday, March 14. The hearings will take place at the Districts. The Human Resources Department will be moving into the new HR building this weekend. REPORT OF THE DIRECTOR OF GENERAL SERVICES ADMINISTRATION The Director of General Services Ed Hodges requested that item 2 on tonight's Agenda under "Informational Presentations," Plant Automation Demonstration, be rescheduled to a later date. Mr. Hodges explained his staff was having technical problems with the presentation due to the limitations of the communications equipment in the Administration Building. The Committee approved Mr. Hodges' request. REPORT OF THE DIRECTOR OF COMMUNICATIONS The Director of Communications Michelle Tuchman reported that in this morning's Registe , on Page 1, there was a story about lab tests conducted on a deceased dolphin that washed ashore in Huntington Beach last year. The article stated that tissue analysis of the dolphin indicated there were lower levels of toxic chemicals found than were found in samples tested in 1988, which may indicate a trend. The lab that did the testing was the Districts' lab. We plan to do additional testing, if there are other dead sea lions and dolphins. There have been 25 responses to our Legislator Day invitations scheduled for May 2. Tomorrow we will be calling Orange County delegation officers to see if they did receive the invitations, and to inquire if they will be attending. Mrs. Tuchman also reported that today we had our first all employee teams meeting and lunch. She advised that 77 employees representing 11 Committees attended the luncheon meeting. The purpose of the meeting was educational; to share information about what the teams are doing, to develop a network, and to look at new ways to work together for the benefit of the Districts.

FAHR97-20: 1997-98 USER FEES, COMMERCIAL FEES, ANNEXATION FEES (All Districts) RECOMMENDED ACTION: This report was prepared as a discussion paper. Three options were presented: 1) No fee increase in 1997-98. 2) A small increase in 1997-98 and reconsider fees in 1998-99. 3) Adoption of a program to increase fees in predetermined steps over time. COMMITTEE DISCUSSION: The FAHR Committee discussed the advantages and disadvantages of each of the options, as well as policy issues such as accumulated funds balances, the role of the Rate Advisory Committee and the Strategic Plan process, compliance with Prop 218, and the continuing transfer of$3.5 Million of the Districts'share of property taxes to the Slate. MOTION: It was moved, seconded, and duly carried to recommend that the Joint Boards approve Option 3 to adopt a program to increase fees in predetermined steps over time. There were 6 votes in favor of the motion, with 4 opposed. For the record, those Directors who opposed the motion cited their concern about agreeing on a concept without having all of the facts, figures and details, as well as their concern about the issues of accumulated fund balances in some of the Districts. The Committee also directed staff to bring this item back to the FAHR Committee in April to conduct a workshop which will review District-by- District user fees, and analyses of other options, including adjusting fees so that sources and uses of funds are equal. Should the Committee decide to recommend a fee increase, the individual District Boards will need to act at their April meeting in order to meet the time line to get the proper fees on the tax bills. ..

There were 6 votes in favor of the motion, with 4 opposed. The Committee also directed staff to bring this item back to the FAHR Committee in April to conduct a workshop which will review District-by-District user fees, and an analysis of more options including adusting fees so that sources and uses of funds are equal. Should the Directors decide to recommend a fee increase, the individual District Boards will need to act at the April meeting in order to meet the time line to get the proper fees on the tax bills. Staff Recommendation The enclosed staff report was prepared as a discussion paper. Three options were presented: 1) No fee increase in 1997-98. 2) A small increase in 1997-98 and reconsider fees in 1998-99. 3) Adoption of a program to increase fees in predetermined steps over time.

Staff Report Department Head(Or Designee) Signature Date Assistant General Manager(Or Designee) ADDITIONAL INFORMATION(Background and/or Summary) At the February 19 FAHR Committee meeting,some of the Directors questioned yet another deferral of a sewer service user fee increase,as fees have not been increased since 1992-93. There was concern that accumulated cash balances would again decrease as annual needs again exceed annual revenues,and that it might be more advisable to phase in an increase in fees over two years,rather than to have a large increase in 1998-99 at the completion of the Strategic Plan. After considerable review and discussion,the Committee directed staff to return with more information regarding sewer service user fees and options for fee adjustments. At the March meeting,the Committee reviewed a staff presentation and written report which presented three options: • No fee increase in 1997-98 • A small increase in 1997-98 and reconsider fees for 1998-99 • Adoption of a program to increase fees in predetermined steps overtime The FAHR Committee discussed the advantages and disadvantages of each of the options, as well as policy issues such as accumulated funds balances,the role of the Rate Advisory Committee and the Strategic Plan process. Staff was directed to return in April with an analysis of more options including adjusting fees so that sources and uses of funds are equal. Should the Committee decide to recommend a fee increase,the individual District Boards will need to act at their April meeting in order to meet the time line to get the proper fees on the tax bills.

This year, staff met with the Directors' Steering Committee on February 1, and with the Finance, Administration and Human Resources Committee on February 19. At the February 19 FAHR Committee meeting, some of the Directors questioned yet another deferral of a sewer service user fee increase, as fees have not been increased since 1992-93. There was concern that accumulated cash balances would again decrease as annual needs again exceed annual revenues, and that it might be more advisable to phase in an increase in fees over two years, rather than to have one large increase in 1998-99 at the completion of the Strategic Plan. After considerable review and discussion, the Committee directed staff to return with more information regarding sewer service user fees and options for fee adjustments. At the March meeting, the Committee reviewed a staff presentation and written report which presented three options: • No fee increase in 1997-98 • A small increase in 1997-98 and reconsider fees for 1998-99 • Adoption of a program to increase fees in predetermined steps over time The FAHR Committee discussed the advantages and disadvantages of each of the options, as well as policy issues such as accumulated funds balances, the role of the Rate Advisory Committee and the Strategic Plan process. Staff was directed to return in April with an analysis of more options including adjusting fees so that sources and uses of funds are equal. Should the Committee decide to recommend a fee increase, the individual District Boards will need to act at their April meeting in order to meet the time-line required to place the revised fees on the tax bills. Backaround and History Each property connected to a sewer system in each of the Districts, except District No. 14, pays an annual sewer use fee, as a separate line item on the property bill, which partially finances operating, maintenance, replacement (OM&R) costs and debt service used to fund sewerage system improvements. About 1,000 large industrial and commercial users are invoiced directly based upon their actual discharge. (Properties in District No. 14 are billed by the IRWD.) Each of those Districts, except District No. 13, also receives a share of the ad valorem property tax which is applied to debt service. New development must pay a one-time sewer connection fee which finances capital expansion of the sewerage system. CSDOO 0 P.O.eoK8127 0 Fountain Valley,CA 92728-8127 0 (714(962-2411 1997-98 Sewer Service User Fees Page 2 March 12, 1997 During the 1980's and early 1990's, each of the Districts was required to consider the adoption of a sewer use fee for ongoing operations, maintenance and rehabilitation costs. Although property taxes, connection fees and federal and state construction grants had historically been the major sources of financing of Districts' activities, they became inadequate during the past decade. Since the passage of Proposition 13, all ad valorem property tax revenue has been used in the Operating Funds for maintenance, operations, rehabilitation, and Certificates of Participation (COPs) service. Beginning in 1991-92, ad valorem property tax receipts were dedicated by Board Resolution to be first used to repay the principal and interest due for COP issues. The costs of providing service have risen beyond the ability of the property tax apportionments to keep pace with the increasingly stringent requirements of the federal, state and regional regulatory agencies for wastewater treatment to protect public health and the environment. Federal and state assistance from the clean water grant program has essentially been eliminated by Congress because of federal funding problems. All Districts except Nos. 13 and 14 currently receive an allocation of the 1% basic property tax levy equal to approximately 2.5% of the 1% basic levy. The typical property owner pays $25 per year in property taxes to the Districts. District No. 13 is fully funded by user fees and District No. 14 is fully funded by the IRWD. In 1992-93, because of the poor economic climate, staff recommended and the Boards agreed not to increase user or connection fees over the 1991-92 rates. In order to do this, certain Districts' programs were scaled back. Subsequent to the 1992-93 fee adoption, the Governor and State Legislature confiscated a portion of the Districts' property taxes and shifted them to help finance schools. After lengthy deliberations, the Boards of Districts 1, 2, 3, 5, 6 and 7 concluded that they had no really viable alternative but to increase the user fees to make up for the confiscation of 1992-93 property taxes by the state. The total amount shifted by the state was $3.5 million. District No. 11 did not increase fees at this time, nor have they since, and District No. 13 had no property tax to shift. Although the state continues to lake the$3.5 million each year, the Districts have lost no additional property taxes to the State Legislature. This is because, after the first increment was established, the state only took back amounts based on AS 8 "bail-out"funds given to special districts in the wake of Proposition 13, and our Districts didn't take any of those funds. California and Orange County economic conditions generally did not improve from 1992 to 1996. Although the Districts have the ability to increase fees to pay for the rising costs of wastewater services, the Directors were sensitive to the continuing economic situation and the very difficult financial problems our member agencies were struggling with, exacerbated by the slate's reduction of revenues to other levels of local government; most of which are unable to be replaced by fees. Therefore, sewer service fees have not been increased. Current single family residential (SFR) unit fees for each District are shown below and are compared to the estimates for 1996-97 from the "2020 VISION" Financial Plan. Fees for multi- family units are 60% of the SFR fee per unit and non-residential fees are 71.5% of the SFR fee per 1000 square feet of building. 1997-98 Sewer Service User Fees Page 3 March 12, 1997 Current SFR Fees vs. "2020 VISION" Estimate Curren[ 1998�allmete Annual Fac "2020 VISION":'. 1 $83.24 i $125.00 ................_...:............................................................................ 2 71.52 100.00 ................._.}................................}................................... 3 j 73.80 125.00 ..............._...}......._........._......................{...................................._. 5 j 08.75 j 125.00 ....................................__...._............ .................................._... e I 78A7 : 100.00 ........................__........_...._...._.......}........_...._....................... 7 E 60.00 i 75.00 .....................}..............._................................................._......... 11 80.00 i 176.00 .........................._.............................}....................................... 13 1 100.00 i 175.00 ........................................................ :....................................... 14 ' Aseeseed by the i IRWD$95.40 Est i Without exception, the current charges are less than those projected in the 1989"2020 VISION" plan, even though the 1992 property tax raid was not anticipated. Reasons for this are reduced influent flow has allowed projects for additional capacity to be deferred, projected borrowing has been delayed, the water reclamation projects have been delayed and operations and maintenance costs have not increased as expected. Had the economy, local growth and flows all developed as anticipated, annual sewer service use fees would have increased nearly every year between 1990 and 1997, and todays average annual fee would be $121.62,just over$50 per year or 70% greater than today's average annual fee. The "2020 VISION" Financial Plan provides that 50% of the Districts' capital improvement program will be funded by borrowing, and that the borrowing will be repaid from property taxes and Sewer Service Fees. Since property tax allocations are fixed, future borrowing must be repaid by Sewer Service Fee increases. As a part of the 1996-97 Budget process, the Directors adopted a reduced capital improvement program in order to avoid borrowing. Even so, appropriated operating and capital accumulated funds will decrease an estimated $25 million this fiscal year. Deferring new borrowing or issuing additional Certificates of Participation (COPS) has allowed the Directors to defer increasing Sewer Service Fees. As noted earlier, in 1992, the Boards officially dedicated property tax revenues to the repayment of COPs. Since that time, COP interest and principal has increased, while property taxes have remained constant, as shown in the following graph. Service of additional borrowing will increase the shortfall of property taxes, and will require Sewer Service Fee increases. 1997-98 Sewer Service User Fees Page 4 March 12, 1997 COP Funding Requirements vs. Property Tax Funding Source ewaneoe rs+.aagmar --'---------- --- ---'.... ........---� --�---�--------- ....... ..................................... .......................""-----------.................""'........-------- .._....--------------.-..-'--'............ aa000an nn nn nor ern nee esn n:e -�-rarwaro..—r�s.wa Staff is currently using a working assumption that the Joint Works capital improvement plan for 1997-98 will continue to be a reduced plan. Primary objectives of the plan will deal with plant automation, computerization and seismic reliability. Our initial goal is for plant improvements to total no more than $50 million for 1997-98. Significant investment in new construction should await the completion of the Strategic Plan. As the Directors are aware, one of the results of the Strategic Plan currently under review will be a revised capital improvement plan through the year 2020. Current estimates are that the new plan may be somewhat less ambitious than the"2020 VISION" Plan, since influent Flows have not increased as rapidly as projected, and since the political climate seems more likely to continue the current discharge requirements. Nonetheless, any significant investment in capital facilities will require a user fee increase, since many of the Districts cannot borrow unless additional revenue is identified and raised. One of the conditions of the COP borrowing done by the Districts is that revenues will cover current year expenditures. Staff has recently obtained an opinion from Bond Counsel that a special appropriation of accumulated reserves for debt service can be counted as current year revenues. This is good news for District No. 1, which has the lowest property tax and sewer service fee revenues, as they can transfer accumulated funds to current revenues to make up the shortfall in these coverage ratio calculations. However, this cannot continue as the District will soon be without funds to transfer. 1997-98 Sewer Service User Fees Page 5 March 12, 1997 The combination of a reduced capital improvement program, special appropriations of accumulated reserves and reduced operations and maintenance costs could enable the Districts to go yet another year without a Sewer Service Fee increase or additional borrowing, should that be the Directors' decision. However, as noted previously, plans to borrow in 1998-99 will depend upon increased revenues and/or reduced expenses. Another requirement of the existing COPS is called an "additional bonds test." This requirement is satisfied only when current revenues, excluding reallocation of accumulated reserves, exceed current debt service expenses. The requirement for fixed rate, senior lien COPS is that revenues be 1.25 times debt service expenses. This requirement would be very difficult to meet without future Sewer Service Fee increases. In District No. 1, for example, accumulated capital funds would need to be used for COP service rather than for the annual purchase of Joint Works equity as their flows increase.

Under the Plan, each District's share of the treatment plant construction, and its respective trunk sewer construction projects are to be financed by a combination of increased connection fees to pay for new capacity and borrowing to pay for rehabilitation and improved treatment. Debt retirement and operating and maintenance costs are to be paid by a combination of property taxes and the annual sewer use fees, under the following assumptions: 1. Renewal of NPDES Permit and Continuation of Current Treatment Levels (301(h) Waiver) This scenario represents the minimum probable level of construction, rehabilitation and operations and maintenance costs. For the first five years of the planning period, the differences between renewal of our existing permit and full secondary treatment are not significant. Increased annual flow projections and new sewer service connections have 1997-98 Sewer Service User Fees Page 6 March 12, 1997 been revised downward from the 1989 Master Plan to reflect current and expected economic development and levels of flow. 2. Connection Fees The capital facilities connection fee is a one-time fee which is paid when building permits are received. Calculation of this fee has included the cost of future and existing facilities on a per unit basis since adoption of the"2020 VISION" Financial Plan. The reason to include future costs is that any new flow will require new, additional facilities and capacity. The policy is for all additional capacity projects to be paid for by new users through their connection fees. The Board-approved connection fee policy provides for an automatic annual adjustment of fees to reflect changes in the Engineering News Record-LA construction cost index. Connection fees are uniform throughout the Districts. A 5% per year increase was projected from 1997-98 through 2005.2006 for cash flow analysis. 3. DebVBorrowinc All of the Districts except Nos. 13 and 14 were projected in"2020 VISION"to issue additional COP-type debt to meet a portion of Joint Works treatment facilities improvements. Borrowing has been a part of the long-range financial plan for capital improvements since 1979 when the policy of using all property tax revenues for operations, maintenance and rehabilitation was implemented. Extensive use of the now discontinued federal and state Clean Water Grant Program enabled the Districts to stretch out their reserves and other income and to generally avoid borrowing until 1990. Three primary reasons to issue debt are: to protect and to preserve capital reserves; to avoid major increases and fluctuations in user fees from year-to-year, and to spread the cost of facilities over their useful lives so that future rate-payers, as well as current rate-payers, share in the costs. The cash flow projections include COP issues in Districts 1 and 11 to meet capital project award schedules and cash flow requirements, and to avoid federal interest earnings restrictions and penalties. The "2020 VISION" Financial Plan and the 1992 Five-Year Financial Plan, both proposed a 50:50 mix of pay-as-you-go and debt financing. At the time it was projected that approximately half of the capital improvement program would be for improved treatment and rehabilitation to be funded by all users, and half would be for additional capacity, to be funded by new users and connection fees. The status of the NPDES Permit was also unknown, causing uncertainty over the amount of improved treatment facilities and the timing of the entire capital improvement program. The new Strategic Plan may defer many of the additional capacity projects as influent flows have not increased as projected in "2020 VISION," but is expected to include $100 million the OCR water reclamation project. 1997-98 Sewer Service User Fees Page 7 March 12, 1997 Borrowing for capital improvements has allowed us to maintain low user fees and to moderate the annual fluctuation that would have been required by a pure pay-as-you-go approach. Today, we have an understanding that the NPDES Permit will be renewed, and we have daily flows that are only 90% of the 1989 flows instead of the 13% increase that was projected. This means flows are 23% lower than originally projected. The borrowing strategy has worked well. We have continued to earn more interest on invested accumulated funds than we pay for COPS, and we have maintained stable sewer service fees in a depressed economy. However, we have also spent some of our savings over the past few years. We have also been criticized by some of the public for such a large amount of outstanding debt, and the percentage of our annual costs that comprises debt service. For these reasons, cash flows were prepared under two assumptions: No borrowing for any District; and additional borrowing only in Districts Nos. 1 and 11, which would otherwise face a large rate increase in the next few years on a pay-as-you-go basis, followed by a rate decrease as funding requirements were met and specific District projects were completed. 4. Accumulated Funds As a part of the financial plan developed by the team of Directors, staff and consultants, the Boards have implemented a plan to build accumulated cash balances for certain future events. The current policy, adopted in 1992, calls for accumulated funds for Dry Period Funding, Contingency, Capital Projects, Catastrophe, Environmental Requirement, and Debt Service needs. These funds are discussed more fully on page 10. One of the purposes of accumulated funds is to serve as a hedge against interest rate risk on our variable rate borrowing program. If we have accumulated funds that match our debt, then if rates rise, our investments also earn a greater yield. When an adequate funding level has been reached, a Fee Stabilization Fund will be created in each District. 5. Capital Improvement Projects As the Directors are aware, the Districts are continuing to experience reduced flow from previous years, but annual flows are beginning to increase. For the past several years, reduced flow has caused staff to review the timing of the capital improvement program. Accordingly, projects for certain additional capacity and improved treatment were delayed, resulting in the ability to postpone some COP issues between 1991 and 1997. Now that flows are beginning to increase again, the Districts will need to move forward with additional capacity projects to ensure they are in place when needed. The Strategic Plan project identification process is in progress and should be complete by the fall of 1997. Current estimates are for treatment plant projects to proceed on an approximate $50 million per year pace. Participation with the Orange County Water District on the OCR project would add about$20 million each year from 1998-99 through 2003-04. 1997-98 Sewer Service User Fees Page 8 March 12, 1997 AVERAGE FLOW PER DAY,NOD ere ............................................................................................................. tm .. ........................_.._............................................................................ d .. ..... ............................................................................ ....................... i e ... ......... ............................................. ....... ........." .................. 8 ae ............................................................................................................. ate ............................................................................................................. eav neo-e.

Ad Valorem Proper Taxes The cash Flow projections are based on the continuing receipt of ad valorem property taxes at the same level as allocated by the County for 1996-97. Should the legislature ultimately implement a further tax confiscation proposal, the revenue loss would need to be made up from increased sewer user fees. Fees would need to increase an average of 48%to recover an amount equal to the loss of all Property taxes. 7. Balanced Budget The following table labeled "Projected Accumulated Funds Balances" indicates that accumulated cash on hand is projected to decrease in every District over the next two fiscal years. This is a result of all annual cash outflows, including capital projects and the principal portion of COP service, exceeding annual revenues. There are four major revenue sources for the Districts: User fees, property taxes, connection fees, and interest income. Two of these sources are generally outside of the Directors' control; property taxes and interest income. Connection fees are projected to increase in accordance with a 1990 Board Ordinance which provides for automatic annual adjustments based upon the change in the CPI. This leaves sewer service user fees as the last controllable revenue source. At their March 1997 meeting, the FAHR Committee directed staff to evaluate fee adjustment alternatives that would bring revenues equal to requirements and balance the annual budgets of each of the Districts. • 1997-98 Sewer Service User Fees Page 9 March 12, 1997 1996-97 Sewer Service User Fee Options Taking all of the above assumptions into consideration and the current and projected near-term economic climate, staff is again preparing an overall "hold-the-line"budget. The portion of each individual District's total operations, maintenance and COP service budget, determined largely by the Joint Operating Fund budget to operate and maintain the treatment and disposal facilities, is approximately 52%. Keeping this significant portion of the operating budget constant and rescheduling certain capital projects, thereby minimizing additional borrowing and subsequent repayment will allow the Districts to assess the lowest possible annual rates. Analysis of the projected rash flows shows that accumulated cash balances will decrease in 1997-98 as follows: Protected Accumulated Funds Balances Policy Balance Balance Balance compliance With District Requirements 6130/96 6/30/97 6130198 Policy 1 8 17,982.000 $ 21.909,000 3 17.100,000 $ 11,802.000 No I. 2 78,769,000 113.135,000 111,920,000 107,296,000 Yes 3 83,091,000 124,026.000 116 996,000 112,446,000 Yes 5 11,078,000 28,976,000 28,108,000 29,006,000 Yes 6 10,494,000 18,368,000 20,902,000 17.910,000 Yea 7 23,108,000 37,533.000 30,176,000 28,733,000 Yea 11 18,182:W0 26.436,0D0 18,753.000 14,938,000ui,0Wni in l�'Mgililli llmrl�i, I, 13 8,631.00 9.309.000 9 074 000 9.054,000 Yea TOTAL $2513A000 $378.892.000 $353 029 U00 All of these Districts will experience decreases in accumulated funds by 1997-98. Two of these eight Districts will be out of compliance with the approved policy for accumulated funds by the end of 1997-98. The policy specifies that funds be accumulated for the following five purposes: • Dry Period Funding- As sewer service user fees are collected as a separate line item on the property tax bills, essentially no funds are received during the first five months of the fiscal year before the December property tax allocations. For this reason, 50% of the year's operations and maintenance expenses and the debt service payments, including the August principal payment, must be on hand at the start of the year. • Operating Contingencies -An amount equal to 20% of the year's operations and maintenance expenses is accumulated to fund unforeseen and unbudgeted expenses, because the sewer service user fees cannot be changed in mid-year since they are collected as a separate line item on the property tax bill. 1997-98 Sewer Service User Fees Page 10 March 12, 1997 • Capital Projects-An amount equal to one year of the capital improvement program costs has been set aside in order to provide required facilities in the event the Directors do not want to issue new debt to finance the construction or if the financing market is unfavorable. When the plan was adopted, this was $100,000,000, but has declined to $50,000,000480,000,000 for 1997-98. • Environmental Reouirements- 10% of the annual capital improvement program is appropriated for unforeseen and unbudgeted improvements needed to comply with changing environmental requirements and regulations from the EPA, AQMD, SWRQB and others. • "Debt Service' Reserves-These amounts, prescribed by the rating agencies, liquidity providers and investors, are included in the COP documents and are under the control of independent third-party Trustees. Generally they are equal to about 10% of the COP issue. Options 1: Maintain Fees at Current Level The initial proposal by staff to the January FAHR Committee, the Steering Committee, and back to the February FAHR Committee, was to maintain fees at the current level for yet another year. This option requires a constant or reduced operations and maintenance budget and a limited capital improvement budget. The advantages of not increasing fees are: - No adverse public reaction to a fee increase - Reduced levels of funds on hand make them less likely to be a target of outrage - Certainty that we have not violated any provision of Proposition 218 - Future fee increases will have input from public Rate Advisory Committee - Future fee increases will be based upon the completed Strategic Plan The downside of not increasing fees in 1997-98 is that: - Accumulated funds on hand will decrease approximately$23 million or 7% - Two Districts will not comply with the approved funding policy - Rates will need to increase substantially in 1998-99 Districts will be perceived as a weaker credit, increasing borrowing costs Option 2: Phase Increase Over Two Years (Reconsider in 1998-99) Another option is to split the fee increase anticipated in 1998-99 into two phases and implement one half each year. A variation on this option would be to increase the fees only in those Districts that will be out of compliance with the funding policy (1 and 11). The advantages of this approach are: - The anticipated fee increase in 1998-99 is smaller if a portion is in 1997-98 - Smaller rate increases are less likely to,generate meaningful public opposition - All Districts would be brought into compliance with the funding policy - Accumulated funds on hand would not decrease so much as without an increase - The municipal finance market would perceive a will to increase rates if needed - The economy is stronger in Orange County and rate-payers may be more supportive The disadvantages of this split increase approach are: - Fees are increased immediately after the public passed Proposition 218 - The meaning and requirements of Proposition 218 are not yet completely or universally understood ` 1997-98 Sewer Service User Fees Page 11 9 March 12, 1997 - The true fee needed to implement the Strategic Plan is not known as the plan is incomplete - The public Rate Advisory Committee (RAC) has not completed their work to recommend changes to the current rate structure - The Board needs to deal with rate increases two years in a row Option 3: Stepped Approach and Annual Adjustments A third alternative would be to adopt a policy to adjust rates annually by a set amount or specific percentage. Such a policy has been previously adopted by Districts 1 and 6, In 1988 District 1 directed staff to increase sewer service user fee rates by 30% each year for four years. In 1986 the District 6 Directors implemented 10% per year increases which became insufficient after two years. Some believe that a formal multi-year policy adopted by the Boards complies with Proposition 218 and requires only one mass public mail at the outset. Of course, we would need a full legal analysis and opinion on this approach. The pros of such a planned, programmed approach to increases are: - Future revenues are easy to budget - Municipal financial market perceives a plan to maintain financial strength - May realize savings by avoiding annual Prop 218 notification process - The economy is stronger in Orange County and rate-payers may be more supportive The cons of a program to adjust rates based upon assumptions are: - Fees are increased immediately after the public passed Proposition 218 - The meaning and requirements of Proposition 218 are not yet completely or universally understood - The actual costs of service and revenues are not known when the program is adopted - Potential public perception that increases are automatic and cost reductions will not be considered - Potential for public to add up annual increases and focus on the multi-year total Actual costs to implement the Strategic Plan are not known - Might be difficult to increase rates above the plan for future unforeseen needs - The public Rate Advisory Committee (RAC) has not completed its work to recommend changes to the current rate structure Otherlssues Proposition 210: A common thread in the options analysis is Proposition 218. The two significant issues confronting the Districts are public notification and adopting rates equal to the cost of service. The Proposition requires every property owner to be notified when rates change. It may be possible to notify one time if rates are proposed to change in accordance with an adopted schedule which is included in the original notice. There are approximately 493,000 parcels in the Districts' service areas. Since the Districts only provide one service, all of our costs are a part of the cost of service. So long as the annual fee revenues do not exceed the annual costs plus a reasonable accumulated funds policy, then our rates will not exceed the cost of service. However, adopting a policy for annual fee increases prior to the completion of the Strategic Plan may run afoul of Proposition 218, as our costs may change. 1997-98 Sewer Service User Fees Page 12 March 12, 1997 Accumulated Funds: The current policy for accumulated funds does not include any appropriation for replacement or rehabilitation of fixed assets. These costs are funded annually when needed from current fees, borrowing or funds on hand. Some other agencies and most utilities have set aside funds from current operations to replace their assets when necessary. The annual contributions generally approximates the depreciation expense. The replacement value of the Districts' fixed assets is estimated to$1.3 billion, and annual depreciation and amortization total $33 million, so a Replacement and Rehabilitation Reserve has the potential to become quite large. We would need to do an excellent job of explaining why we need to adjust rates with cash in the bank. Senate Bill 147: Senate Bill 147 (Ayala & Kopp) is currently being discussed in Sacramento. This bill has been considered to prohibit special districts like ours from issuing debt, including COPS, after January 1, 1998, without a vote of our constituents. If this bill is expected to pass, the Directors may want to borrow during the first half of 1997-98. We will not be able to obtain a favorable credit rating or economical liquidity and will not be able to comply with current COP restrictions regarding additional debt without a fee increase. Rate Advisory Committee: As a part of the Strategic Plan effort, staff and consultants have formed a Rate Advisory Committee (RAC) made up of representative from industrial, commercial and residential users, as well as Directors and local public agencies. This Committee has held four meetings to understand the current fee structure and will soon consider alternatives and make a recommendation to the Boards. The Directors may want to consult with or advise the RAC of a potential fee increase before the RAC proposal has been considered. It is possible that the RAC proposal will result in rate decreases for some users in 1998-99 after a general increase in 1997-98. Schedulina The Districts' sewer service user fees are collected as a separate line item on the annual property tax bill. This method of collection is specifically provided in the Health and Safely Code, and has been determined to be the most cost effective: minimal District staff is needed to administer the program; no staff time is spent on collecting delinquent accounts; eventually all fees are paid through the tax lien process, and no other collection method provides means to terminate service for nonpayment. Costs to the user, both direct and indirect, are minimized by this approach. The drawback is scheduling. Because the property tax bills are mailed only once each year, sewer service user fees can be changed only once each year. Unforeseen costs must be paid from accumulated funds on hand or must be built into the rate structure. Most importantly, rates must be adopted by the Boards in time for the fees to be calculated for each parcel, and the Orange County Tax Collector and Auditor to be notified in early August. Sewer service user fees rates are adopted through the Ordinance process which requires two meetings and readings, and a 30-day period before becoming effective. In order for the fees to be in place on July 1, the second reading must be before May 31. Without holding special meetings of the District Boards, this means that the second reading can be at the May Joint Board meeting, and the first reading must be at the April meeting. This schedule requires the FAHR Committee to consider the policy issues and recommend whether or not to adjust fees at their April 9, 1997 meeting.

A meeting of the Executive Committee of the County Sanitation Districts Nos. 1, 2, 3, 5, 6, 7, 11, 13 and 14 of Orange County, California was held on March 19, 1997 at 5:30 p.m., at the Districts' Administrative Office.

PUBLIC COMMENTS There were no comments by any member of the public. Minutes of the Executive Committee Page 2 March 19, 1997 APPROVAL OF MINUTES The minutes of the January 29, 1997 Executive Committee meeting were approved as drafted. REPORT OF THE COMMITTEE CHAIR Chair Collins did not make a report. REPORT OF THE GENERAL MANAGER General Manager Don McIntyre reported that SB 147 was killed in committee. REPORT OF GENERAL COUNSEL General Counsel Tom Woodruff updated the Committee Members on the status of the Sangermano case, which is out to trial. DISCUSSION ITEM: CAD Judy Wilson announced that six proposals were received for legislative advocate services. These were evaluated by staff and interviews with the individuals and firms were held in Sacramento. The interview team consisted of Chair Collins, CAD Judy Wilson, and Director of Communications Michelle Tuchman. After conducting the interviews, the team determined that Kenneth Emanuels &Associates was best qualified to fulfill the requirements of the scope of work at a reasonable cost. Judy Wilson discussed several issues that a legislative advocate, working with staff, will be required to address, including some that have nothing to do with consolidation, such as this is an "Orange County" bill, the entire Orange County delegation is Republican, political differences between representatives, timing, seeking a co-author, etc. The Local Government Committee's April 2 calendar is already closed and, in order to be placed on the April 16 calendar, the analysis must be done by this Friday. Judy is working with the analyst assigned to this legislation and has provided our analysis and the background information. Any delay at this time could affect review by the Fiscal Committee. It was moved and seconded to 1) retain the services of a legislative advocate; 2) receive and file the proposals; 3) authorize staff to enter into a professional services agreement for legislative advocate services with Kenneth Emanuels &Associates for an amount not to exceed $18,000. Discussion: The Committee members discussed the issues mentioned above, as well as the possibility of amending the bill to clean up the language. Staff and the consultant will be seeking support from the entire Orange County delegation, seek a co-author, as well as obtaining support letters from the 501 Operating Engineers Union and the League of Cities. Staff will also seek support from certain Los Angeles County representatives. Minutes of the Executive Committee Page 3 March 19, 1997 The differences in pricing on the proposals was discussed. Chair Collins explained that each firth envisioned the project differently and priced it accordingly. On the strength of the written proposal only Kenneth Emanuels &Associates was rated first. The fee was also the lowest. There will be roles for the Directors to play during this process, including representing the Districts when the bill is considered by the various committees, encouraging support through the League of Cities. Dana Smith, Executive Director of LAFCO, described the feedback she received at CA-LAFCO Days in Sacramento recently. She also staled that a letter of support from LAFCO should accompany the bill, which states that the issue needs to be fixed and that it can best be fixed legislatively. The liming issue was discussed. Concern was expressed about getting all the signatures and documents before the April 16 Committee hearing. Judy Wilson suggested providing draft copies of resolutions from each district and the League of Cities if they have not been approved by then. The recommended actions were put to vote; there were no objections and they passed unanimously. Further discussion was held on the wording. General Counsel has prepared revised language which will be forwarded to Sacramento. Dana Smith explained the LAFCO process, noting the options that are available. Terms and conditions would have to be developed. The County would have to adopt a supporting resolution as well. There is no need to wait for action in Sacramento; the terms and conditions could state that the effective date of consolidation would be July 1998. Because it was difficult to estimate the number of hours the consultant's contract will be effective for one year. CLOSED SESSION There was no need for a Closed Session. OTHER BUSINESS Director Singer questioned General Counsel about the necessity of having quorums at the working committees. A quorum is, by definition in the resolution, one more than one-half of the members of a committee. Because the committees do not make decisions, only recommendations, a quorum is not absolutely necessary. When moving a recommendation forward to the Boards, however, a note could be included or mention made that a quorum was or was not present. MATTERS TO BE REPORTED ON AT A SUBSEQUENT MEETING There were none. tl Minutes of the Executive Committee Page 4 March 19, 1997 MATTERS ON A FUTURE AGENDA FOR ACTION AND A STAFF REPORT. There were none. CONSIDERATION OF UPCOMING MEETINGS The next Executive Committee meeting is tentatively scheduled for April 16, 1997, provided activity warrants one.
