COUNTY SANITATION DISTRICT ADOPTING A POLICY PERTAINING
TO FUTURE AREAS TO BE SERVED BY THE ORANGE COUNTY
SANITATION DISTRICT,AND RESCINDING RESOLUTION NO.OCSD
98-11.
WHEREAS,the Orange County Sanitation District provides wastewater
collection,treatment and disposal services to serve all or part of 23 cities and
unincorporated areas occupying the central and northwestern areas of Orange County,
and for certain areas outside the District boundaries pursuant to service agreements,
and,
WHEREAS,concern has been expressed to the District that if the District’s
service areas were to be further expanded by annexation or service agreement,it may
impair the ability of the District to provide adequate service to areas presently within its
jurisdiction;and,
WHEREAS,the Board of Directors has been advised that the 1989 Master
Plan,the 1989 Collection,Treatment and Disposal Facilities Master Plan,and the
proposed 1999 Strategic Plan that call for the planning and construction of treatment
works,disposal facilities,trunk line sewers,and related appurtenances are compatible
with and can accommodate the wastewater service needs of all those areas presently
within the District’s approved spheres of influence and also within the areas located
outside the existing boundaries of the District,but which are receiving service pursuant
to service agreements;and,
WHEREAS,on-site sewerage disposal systems in adjacent communities may
contribute to degradation of groundwater basins used by cities and communities within
the District’s service area;and,
WHEREAS,the District’s Board of Directors-believes that it is in the best
interests of the communities and cities serviced by the District to assist in preserving
Orange County’s valuable groundwater supplies from degradation by on-site sewage
disposal systems;and,
WHEREAS,the District has studied the impacts of allowing areas outside of
the current sphere of influence to discharge into the District’s sewerage system;and,
1
WHEREAS,the Board of Directors has been advised that there are
approximately 12,500 acres that are outside of Orange County which would naturally
drain into the Orange County groundwater basin;and,
WHEREAS,said 12,500 acres are projected to generate less than two million
gallons per day of wastewater when fully developed;and,
WHEREAS,the Board of Directors has also determined that the master-
planned facilities for the District can also accommodate the wastewater flows from said
areas without causing any adverse impact on the areas in the vicinity of the treatment
plants or in the operations of the treatment plants and facilities themselves;and,
NOW,THEREFORE,the Board of Directors of Orange County Sanitation
District,
DOES HEREBY RESOLVE,DETERMINE AND ORDER:
Section 1 That the District adopt,as its policy,that it will approve additional
annexations of territory,or approve a service agreement,for territory presently included
in the individual District’s adopted spheres of influence or which is entitled to receive
service pursuant to existing service agreements.
Section 2 The District will provide service to territory outside the area
described in Section 1,and allow connection to the District’s sewerage system to
reduce degradation of valuable groundwater in Orange County,provided the following
conditions are satisfied:
A.Water from the territory would naturally drain into Orange County.
B.The Orange County Sanitation District member agency affected by a
proposed service agreement,or the development related thereto,must be consulted,
and its input considered,prior to the proposed agreement being presented to the
Orange County Sanitation District Board of Directors.
C.A local government agency executes the service agreement providing for
sewerage services and for payment of one-time fees equivalent to annexation fees,
connection fees,and an administrative charge,and annual fees equivalent to sewer
service fees,property taxes,and an administrative charge,and any other terms and
conditions,all as established by the Board of Directors at the time of approval,or as
amended from time-to-time,for said service;and

connections to the District or other sewage treatment systems,and discourage on-site
disposal systems.
