FROM: James D. Herberg, General Manager
Originator: Lorenzo Tyner, Director of Finance and Administrative Services
SUBJECT: FY 2017-18 USE CHARGES FOR SANTA ANA WATERSHED PROJECT
AUTHORITY
GENERAL MANAGER'S RECOMMENDATION
Adopt Resolution No. OCSD 17-XX, entitled, "A Resolution of the Board of Directors of
Orange County Sanitation District Establishing Use Charges for the 2017-18 Fiscal Year
Pursuant to the Wastewater Treatment and Disposal Agreement with the Santa Ana
Watershed Project Authority ("SAWPA")".
BACKGROUND
Currently, the Orange County Sanitation District (Sanitation District) invoices the Santa
Ana Watershed Project Authority (SAWPA) on a quarterly basis for the wastewater
discharge we receive from the Santa Ana River Interceptor (SARI) line. Annually, the
rates for flow, biochemical oxygen demand (BOD), and total suspended solids (TSS) are
calculated based upon the fiscal year budget for treatment and disposal costs and the
1996 Wastewater Treatment and Disposal agreement. The rates calculated for each
constituent for FY 2017-18 for wastewater discharge are:
Flow $175.68 per million gallons of flow
BOD $278.96 per thousand pounds
TSS $388.99 per thousand pounds
The FY 2017-18 rates are a 0.29 percent increase from the FY 2016-17 rates due to a
0.29 percent increase in the treatment and disposal costs in the proposed FY 2017-18
budget. These rates are separate from the rates charged for additional capacity
purchases by SAWPA.
RELEVANT STANDARDS
• Maintain collaborative and cooperative relationships with neighboring agencies
• 1996 Treatment and Disposal agreement with SAWPA
TIMING CONCERNS
Rates should be effective July 1st of FY 2017-18.
Page 1 of 2
RAMIFICATIONS OF NOT TAKING ACTION
Rates would not be established for FY 2017-18 for cost recovery for treatment and
disposal of SAWPA's wastewater discharge.
PRIOR COMMITTEE/BOARD ACTIONS
These rates are adopted annually in June pursuant to the Wastewater Treatment and
Disposal Agreement with the Santa Ana Watershed Project Authority.

Orange County Sanitation District
FROM: James D. Herberg, General Manager
Originator: Lorenzo Tyner, Director of Finance and Administrative Services
SUBJECT: GANN APPROPRIATIONS LIMIT FOR FISCAL YEAR 2017-18
GENERAL MANAGER'S RECOMMENDATION
Adopt Resolution No. OCSD 17-XX entitled, "A Resolution of the Board of Directors of
the Orange County Sanitation District Establishing the Annual Appropriations Limit for
Fiscal Year 2017-18, for the Orange County Sanitation District in Accordance with the
Provisions of Division 9 of Title 1 of the California Government Code."
BACKGROUND
This routine annual action adopts a resolution establishing the spending limit for
"proceeds of taxes" in accordance with Article XIII B of the Constitution of the State of
California (Section 7910 of the Government Code). The Orange County Sanitation
District's (Sanitation District) annual appropriations are well below the limit.
In 1979, Proposition 4 (the Gann Initiative) was approved, adding Article XIII B to the
State Constitution. The provisions of this article place limits on the amount of revenue
that can be appropriated by all entities of government. This initiative was designed to
constrain government expenditures by placing an annual limit on jurisdictions' revenue
and appropriation growth. The Appropriations Limit is based on actual appropriations
during the 1978-1979 fiscal year, as increased each year using specified population and
inflationary growth factors. This annual allowance growth is linked to changes in
population and cost of living. The passage of Proposition 111 in June 1990 amended
Article XIII B, making changes in the base year upon which the appropriations limit is
based, establishing new cost of living factors and new population factors for use by local
governments, and increasing appropriations not subject to the limit (primarily qualified
capital outlay projects). The financial constraints of Article XIII B apply to the State, all
cities, counties, special districts, and all other political subdivisions.
RELEVANT STANDARDS
• Produce Operations and CIP budgets every two years with annual update
• California Government Code Section 7910
PROBLEM
Article XIII B of the State Constitution places limits on the amount of revenue that can be
appropriated by all entities of government.
Page 1 of 2
PROPOSED SOLUTION
Approval of the proposed resolution establishing the annual appropriations limit for fiscal
year 2017-18 in accordance with the provisions of Division 9 of Title 1 of the California
Government Code.
TIMING CONCERNS
The proposed one-year budget update, effective July tat of this year, will be finalized and
presented to the Board of Directors for adoption in June. The appropriations limit
resolution needs to be approved in conjunction with the budget.
RAMIFICATIONS OF NOT TAKING ACTION
The Sanitation District will not be able to carry out its financial fiduciary duties beyond
June 30, 2017.
PRIOR COMMITTEE/BOARD ACTIONS
Adopted annually in accordance with Government Code Section 7910.

DIVISION 9 OF TITLE 1 OF THE CALIFORNIA
GOVERNMENT CODE
WHEREAS, Article XIII B of the Constitution of the State of California as
proposed by the Initiative Measure approved by the people at the special statewide
election held on November 6, 1979, provides that the total annual appropriations limit of
each local government agency shall not exceed the appropriations limit of such entity for
the prior year, adjusted for changes in the cost of living and population, except as
otherwise specifically provided for in said Article; and,
WHEREAS, the State Legislature added Division 9 (commencing with Section
7900) to Title 1 of the Government Code of the State of California to implement Article
XIII B of the California Constitution; and,
WHEREAS, Section 7910 of the Government Code provides that each year the
governing body of each local jurisdiction shall, by resolution, establish its appropriations
limit for the following fiscal year pursuant to Article XIII B at a regularly-scheduled meeting
or a noticed special meeting and that fifteen (15) days prior to such meeting,
documentation used in the determination of the appropriations limit shall be available to
the public; and,
WHEREAS, Section 7902 (a) of the Government Code sets forth the method for
determining the appropriations limit for each local jurisdiction for the 2017-18 fiscal year;
and,
WHEREAS, the Board of Directors wishes to establish the appropriations limit
for fiscal year 2017-18 for the District.
NOW, THEREFORE, the Board of Directors of the Orange County Sanitation
District DOES HEREBY RESOLVE, DETERMINE AND ORDER:
Section 1. That it is hereby found and determined that the documentation used
in the determination of the appropriations limit for the Orange County Sanitation District,
for fiscal year 2017-18, was available to the public in the Finance Department of said
District at least fifteen (15) days prior to this date.
OCSD 17-XX-1
Section 2. That the appropriations limit for fiscal year 2017-18 for the Orange
County Sanitation District, as established in accordance with Section 7902(b) of the
California Government Code, is $105,998,787 which sum is within the maximum
authorized spending limitation for fiscal year 2017-18.
Section 3. That the Board of Directors of the Orange County Sanitation District
has determined that the percent change in California per capita personal income from the
preceding year would be the cost of living factor to be used and the weighted average
population change of the cities within the District would be the population factor to be
used in calculating the Orange County Sanitation District's appropriations limit for the
Fiscal Year 2017-18.
Section 4. The determination of the appropriations limit is based upon the best
and most complete information available at this time. The District reserves the right to
review and re-establish a new and different limit in the event that it subsequently
determines that a modification of the limitation amount is appropriate.

Orange County Sanitation District
FROM: James D. Herberg, General Manager
Originator: Celia Chandler, Director of Human Resources
SUBJECT: TEMPORARY EMPLOYMENT SERVICES
GENERAL MANAGER'S RECOMMENDATION
A. Authorize the General Manager to enter into sole source purchase order contracts
with various staffing firms for Temporary Employment Services selected in
Specification No. CS-2009-421BD for the period July 1, 2017 through
June 30, 2018; and
B. Authorize the General Manager to add or remove staffing firms from the available
pool, as needed, to meet work requirements identified by the Human Resources
Department, with no change to the approved total budget, at a total cost not to
exceed $1,187,190.
BACKGROUND
Orange County Sanitation District (Sanitation District) hires temporary workers for a
limited duration, through third-party staffing firms, when regular employees are not
available to cover for employee absences due to illness, vacation, leave of absence, or
unforeseen circumstances such as increased work demands due to regulatory changes.
In addition, temporary workers are also used for approved special projects and budgeted
capital improvement projects (CIP)that are non-engineering related.
The cost of a temporary worker includes the worker's hourly rate in addition to a "mark-
up" rate, which is payment to the staffing firm to cover the benefits provided to the
temporary worker and overhead costs. The key advantage associated with temporary
staffing is flexibility, since temporary workers are used for adjusting staffing levels quickly
and for a limited timeframe.
Additionally, in May 2014, the Board of Directors approved entering into purchase order
contracts for Temporary Employment Services for a one-year period, with four one-year
renewal options. The final renewal option will expire during the FY 2017-18, and the
Human Resources Department will be soliciting bids to evaluate the list of staffing firms
available to provide staffing flexibility and to comply with the Orange County Sanitation
District Purchasing Ordinance No. OCSD-47.

RELEVANT STANDARDS
Ensure the public's money is wisely spent
PROBLEM
Annually, the General Manager requests the Board of Directors (Board)approval to enter
into agreements with various staffing firms, which could change throughout the year,
based on quality of service, caliber of candidates, and competitive rates. The General
Manager also requests authorization to identify and select the staffing firms that will be
utilized by the Sanitation District moving forward.
PROPOSED SOLUTION
Authorize the General Manager to identify and select the staffing firms that will be utilized
to meet the changing staffing needs of the Sanitation District. For the fiscal year
2017-18, the General Manager has identified a total of 11 staffing firms that are currently
utilized by the Sanitation District. The agencies are listed below:
1. Aerotek, Inc.: General Staffing, Engineering, Laboratory
2. AppleOne Employment Services: General Staffing
3. Elwood Tradesmen: Operations and Maintenance
4. Material and Contract Services— Procurement Services Associates: Contract
Services

The Sanitation District anticipates utilizing additional staffing firms in the future to meet its
organizational needs; therefore, staff is requesting authorization for the General Manager
to enter into similar agreements with other staffing firms, as needed. Human Resources
staff interviews each staffing firm prior to entering into a purchase order contract for
services to ensure administrative requirements are met for doing business with the
Sanitation District.
Purchasing staff works with the staffing firm to obtain the proper signatures and ensure
all requirements are met prior to entering into a purchase order contract with the
Sanitation District. The purchase order contract includes information related to work
hours, billing rates, invoicing, payment, and confidentiality.

BACKGROUND
Developing a two-year budget increases efficiencies and provides a longer planning
horizon. This update represents known revisions to the second year of the two-year
budget.
The FY 2017-18 Proposed Revised Budget is enclosed for the Committee's
consideration. The Budget has been presented to the Operations Committee at the
regular June meeting in order to allow each Standing Committee an opportunity to review
the proposal prior to the June Board meeting.
Although each Committee has had an opportunity to review the proposal, it remains the
responsibility of the Administration Committee to recommend approval.
The Administration Committee is requested to recommend that the Board of Directors
approve this budget.
Page 1 of 3
RELEVANT STANDARDS
• Produce Operations and CIP budgets every two years with annual update.
PROBLEM
Lack of understanding of the Orange County Sanitation District's (Sanitation District)
resources, or revenues and reserves, makes it difficult to approve a budget that meets
the current needs of the Sanitation District, lays the groundwork for future budgets, and
keeps the Sanitation District in sound financial condition.
PROPOSED SOLUTION
Providing the Board of Directors with an understanding of the Sanitation District's
resources will assist in the approval of a two-year budget with annual updates.
TIMING CONCERNS
The proposed budget update, effective July 1s'of this year,will be finalized and presented
to the Board for adoption in June.
RAMIFICATIONS OF NOT TAKING ACTION
The Sanitation District will not be able to carry out its financial fiduciary duties beyond
June 30, 2017.
PRIOR COMMITTEE/BOARD ACTIONS
The Board approved the FY 2016-17 and FY 2017-18 Two-Year Budget for the period
July 1, 2017 through June 30, 2018 in June 2016. Budget overviews were presented to
the Administration and Operations Committees in June 2017.
ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
The operating and maintenance budget of $151.9 million in the FY 2017-18 budget
update is being proposed to increase 1.4 percent, or $2.1 million, over the previously
approved budget. This increase is mostly attributable to the impacts of the new collective
bargaining agreements for all bargaining groups that were approved after the adoption of
the two-year budget, as well as the addition of eight full-time equivalent positions to
support the increasing demands of the preventative maintenance program.
The capital improvement program (CIP) budget of$148.1 million is 7.3 percent, or$10.1
million, over the previously approved budget primarily due to CIP outlays for FY 2016-17
being $37.2 million less than budgeted, some of which is being carried forward into
FY 2017-18. The combined total FY 2016-17 and 2017-18 capital improvement program
outlays are now anticipated to be less than originally budgeted.

ORANGE COUNTY SANITATION DISTRICT I BUDGET UPDATE-FISCAL YEAR 2017-18 V
MESSAGE FROM THE GENERAL MANAGER
June 1,2017
Honorable Chair and Board of Directors:
I am pleased to submit the Orange County Sanitation District's(OCSD)
Proposed Budget Update for the 2017-18 fiscal year.This document lays out
the framework of OCSD's activities for the upcoming year,and serves as a
source of information for OCSD's Board of Directors,our ratepayers and
our employees.This budget includes the operational,capital and debt service
expenditures necessary to cost-effectively support our mission.As this is an
update to our previously approved two-year budget,relatively minor changes
are recommended including operational cost increases of less than two percent.However,there are key
areas that I would like to highlight:
• Expanded Water Recycling—In partnership with the Orange County Water District(OCWD),our
agency recycles enough water to supply the needs of 850,000 people.Our Board of Directors has set a
goal of recycling 100 percent of our reclaimable flows to provide a reliable,affordable,and high quality
water source.Having completed the joint feasibility study with OCWD for the ultimate expansion of
the Groundwater Replenishment System(GWRS),the two agencies now embark on design projects that
will increase water recycling for an additional 250,000 people.This expansion will ensure that a potential
resource once lost to the ocean will now supply water for over one million people in north and central
Orange County.
• Infrastructure Reliability and Operational Sustainability—We will continue to improve our planned
maintenance program to include civil assets in addition to electrical and mechanical systems.
Recognizing the importance of resiliency in the event of a disaster,we will complete our business
continuity plan and establish offsite backup infrastructure.
• Safety and Security—Capital projects,maintenance activities,and training to address safety in our
workplace are included in this budget,as are enhancements to our physical,electronic and cyber security
infrastructure.
• Operating Expense Cost Containment—Despite inflationary increases on many external costs such
as chemicals and utilities,we will minimize the impact on ratepayers by aggressively negotiating our
contracts,ensuring a competitive bidding environment,prudently managing debt and implementing
efficiencies. Operating efficiencies such as the reduction of long-term liabilities,operational
improvements and general cost containment have allowed OCSD to minimize ongoing expenses and
the need for additional resources.
ri
2017-18 BUDGET UPDATE
• Staffing Cost Containment—While addressing rising treatment and chemical costs,aging
infrastructure,and increased regulatory requirements,this budget displays our commitment to
efficiency as it includes only a minimal one percent staffing increase.
• Rate and Sewer Service Planning—Our current rate structure expires on June 30,2018.During this
budget period,we will complete a Capital Improvement Program Master Plan and independent Rate
Study.These activities will serve as a basis for our new rate structure and assist in developing a sound
financial plan in line with the goals of the agency.
OCSD will continue to provide wastewater treatment,recycling,sewer and facilities maintenance,ocean
monitoring and many other services while maintaining one of the lowest rates in the state.I believe this
budget fully supports the goals included in the Orange County Sanitation District's Strategic Plan and
positions us well to address challenges in the coming years.

Project Name&Number I TPAD Digester Facility at Plant 2 - P2-128
Project Category Support Facilities Project Budget: $419,000,000
Description
This project is the largest of a set of related projects to replace the mesophilic anaerobic digesters
at Plant 2 with new digesters in a temperature-phased anaerobic digester(TPAD)configuration.
This project will include six new thermophilic digesters,batch tanks,cooling facilities,and e
associated sludge pumping,digester mixing, power distribution,and controls. Replacement and
demolition of existing digesters will be included in a separate project.
Justification
The 2017 Biosolids Master Plan conducted a comprehensive evaluation of end-to-end alternatives

Self-Funded Insurance Plans
SELF-FUNDED INSURANCE PLANS
The General Liability and Property program and the Workers' Compensation program provide for OCSD to be
partially self-insured for general liability and workers'compensation. The in-lieu premiums charged to the
operating divisions are the revenue source for these programs. Expenses primarily consist of settlement claims,
legal fees and excess loss insurance premiums. Ending Reserve Balances are projected at$57 million.
General Liability and Property
• OCSD's current excess general liability insurance coverage is$40 million per occurrence with an annual
aggregate limit and with a self-insured retention of$500,000.
• OCSD's current property insurance coverage is$1 billion for perils of fire and $300 million for perils of
flood,subject to a self-insured retention of$250,000. OCSD is partially self-insured for earthquake, but
does carry$25 million in coverage on several key structures with a$5 million deductible. OCSD also has a
$50 million sublimit for builder's risk under the property insurance program to ensure upcoming
construction projects are adequately covered.
• In order to maintain the reserve balance of$55 million for the General Liability and Property program,
appropriations for in-lieu premiums charged to operating divisions are recommended at$2,110,870 for
FY 2017-18.
Workers'Compensation
• OCSD's current excess workers'compensation coverage has unlimited statutory coverage per occurrence
and$4 million employer's liability per employee with a self-insured retention of$1 million per person per
occurrence.
• In order to maintain the reserve balance of$2 million for the Workers'Compensation program,
appropriations for in-lieu premiums charged to operating divisions are recommended at$554,330 for
FY 2017-18.

Orange County Sanitation District
FROM: James D. Herberg, General Manager
Originator: James Colston, Director of Environmental Services
SUBJECT: LABORATORY, MONITORING, AND COMPLIANCE DIVISION UPDATE
GENERAL MANAGER'S RECOMMENDATION
Information Only.
BACKGROUND
The Laboratory, Monitoring, and Compliance Division was part of the reorganization that
formed the Environmental Services Department in July 2016. Staff will present an
informational overview on the Division's new and on-going programs to update the Board
of Directors with the activities and achievements over the past year, and planned future
efforts.
RELEVANT STANDARDS
• Maintain a culture of improving efficiency
• Maintain environmental regulatory oversight by all regulators
Highly qualified, well trained, motivated, and diverse workforce
ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
The Laboratory, Monitoring, and Compliance Division (Division 630) is composed of 54
positions and has an operating budget of $10,389,610. The division supports several
internal customers including Operations, Compliance, Resource Protection, Orange
County Sanitation District's (Sanitation District) Research Technical Advisory Group and
Capital Projects, in addition to performing as needed cooperative support for and studies
with outside agencies such as the Orange County Water District (OCWD), the Southern
California Coastal Water Research Project (SCCWRP) and the South Orange County
Wastewater Agency (SOCWA).
In July 2016, the Sanitation District reorganized to form the Environmental Services
Department and the Compliance section, with its 11 positions, was added to the
previously named Environmental Laboratory and Ocean Monitoring Division. This
change has brought together the analytical expertise of the Laboratory staff and the
regulatory reporting expertise of the Compliance staff. Due to time constraints, this
presentation will focus on the Sanitation District's Ocean Monitoring Program and only
briefly touch on other programs within Division 630.

The Environmental Laboratory performs analysis for nearly 110,000 samples per year;
approximately 48% are in support of Operational Optimization and Process Monitoring,
34% are in support of Permit Compliance, 9% are in support of Resource Protection
monitoring and investigations and 8.5% are in support of the Ocean Monitoring Program.
The Sanitation District's Ocean Monitoring Program performed 86 vessel operation days
in 2016. The Sanitation District's water quality program, which extends seven miles off
shore, has collected 3,736 samples at nearly 500 stations. The sediment monitoring
program collected samples at 97 stations and staff collected nearly 200 samples from the
ocean floorfor chemical and biological analyses; while the fish trawling program collected
fish and invertebrates at 20 stations for analysis. As a comparison, in 1997, the Sanitation
District used contractors to perform this work at a cost over$1.7 million per year. Since
the Sanitation District insourced this program using existing Sanitation District staff, our
expenditures have been reduced to less than $300,000 per year.

Activated sludge process — A secondary biological wastewater treatment process where
bacteria reproduce at a high rate with the introduction of excess air or oxygen and consume
dissolved nutrients in the wastewater.
Benthos —The community of organisms, such as sea stars, worms, and shrimp, which live on,
in, or near the seabed, also known as the benthic zone.
Biochemical Oxygen Demand (BOD) — The amount of oxygen used when organic matter
undergoes decomposition by microorganisms. Testing for BOD is done to assess the amount of
organic matter in water.
Biogas—A gas that is produced by the action of anaerobic bacteria on organic waste matter in a
digester tank that can be used as a fuel.
Biosolids—Biosolids are nutrient rich organic and highly treated solid materials produced by the
wastewater treatment process. This high-quality product can be recycled as a soil amendment on
farmland or further processed as an earth-like product for commercial and home gardens to
improve and maintain fertile soil and stimulate plant growth.
