RELEVANT STANDARDS • Maintain and adhere to appropriate internal planning documents, Resolution No. OCSD 15-16 (Current Records Retention Schedule) • Comply with Government Code Sections 60200 through 60204 PROBLEM There are current legal regulatory requirements that are not reflected in the Sanitation District’s existing Records Retention Schedule.

BACKGROUND This agenda item presents an update to the Orange County Sanitation District's (Sanitation District) Investment Policy Statement to the Administration Committee for consideration in the Committee's capacity as the oversight committee for the Investment Policy (Section 18.2). With adoption of the Resolution, the Board of Directors would readopt the Sanitation District's current Investment Policy Statement, portfolio performance benchmarks, and monitoring and reporting requirements for calendar year 2019. The Sanitation District's Investment Policy Statement was previously approved by the Administration Committee and Board for calendar year 2018 in December 2017. RELEVANT STANDARDS • Orange County Sanitation District Investment Policy • California Government Code Sections 53607 and 53646 PROBLEM California Government Code Section 53607 allows for the Board of Directors to delegate authority to invest and/or reinvest the Sanitation District’s funds to the Treasurer for a one-year period. California Government Code Section 53646 requires the Sanitation District to review its Investment Policy annually and readopt its Policy at a public meeting, which will establish specific performance benchmarks and objectives, and specific monitoring and reports. On December 20, 2017, the Board of Directors adopted Resolution No. OCSD 17-17, entitled “A Resolution of the Board of Directors of the Orange County Sanitation District, Authorizing the District’s Treasurer to Invest and/or Reinvest District’s Funds, Adopting District’s Investment Policy Statement and Performance Benchmarks; and Repealing Resolution No. OCSD 16-19”. Authority Page 2 of 4 delegated by the Board of Directors to the Assistant General Manager & Director of Finance and Administrative Services/Treasurer to invest and/or reinvest the Sanitation District’s funds expires on December 31, 2018. Pursuant to California Government Code Section 53646, the Sanitation District’s Investment Policy must be reviewed and readopted prior to December 31, 2018. PROPOSED SOLUTION With adoption of the Resolution, the Board of Directors would renew its delegation of investment authority to the Assistant General Manager & Director of Finance and Administrative Services/Treasurer for a one-year period, January 1, 2019 to December 31, 2019, in compliance with the requirements of California Government Code Section 53607. Each year, the Board of Directors will consider similar actions, along with the annual reconsideration of the Sanitation District's Investment Policy. TIMING CONCERNS The Board of Directors delegation of authority to the Assistant General Manager & Director of Finance and Administrative Services/Treasurer to invest and/or reinvest the Sanitation District’s funds will expire on December 31, 2018. Pursuant to California Government Code Section 53646, the Sanitation District’s Investment Policy must be reviewed and readopted prior to December 31, 2018. RAMIFICATIONS OF NOT TAKING ACTION The Sanitation District’s Assistant General Manager & Director of Finance and Administrative Services/Treasurer will not be able to invest and/or reinvest the Sanitation District’s funds and the Sanitation District will not be in compliance with California Government Code Section 53646. PRIOR COMMITTEE/BOARD ACTIONS December 2017 - Board adopted Resolution No. OCSD 17-17, entitled “A Resolution of the Board of Directors of the Orange County Sanitation District, Authorizing the District’s Treasurer to Invest and/or Reinvest District’s Funds, Adopting District’s Investment Policy Statement and Performance Benchmarks; and Repealing Resolution No. OCSD 16-19”.

When investing, reinvesting, purchasing, acquiring, exchanging, selling, or managing public funds, a trustee shall act with care, skill, prudence, and diligence under the circumstances then prevailing, including, but not limited to, the general economic conditions and the anticipated needs of the agency, that a prudent person acting in a Page 1 like capacity and familiarity with those matters would use in the conduct of funds of a like character and with like aims, to safeguard the principal and maintain the liquidity needs of the agency.

Such advisors must be registered under the Investment Advisers Act of 1940, or be exempt from such registration. 6.0 Ethics and Conflicts of Interest: Officers and employees of OCSD involved in the investment process shall refrain from personal business activities that could conflict with proper execution of OCSD's investment program, or which could impair their ability to make impartial investment decisions.

H:\DEPT\ASD\220\COMMON\INVESTMENT POLICY\2018 DECEMBER Page 1 of 2 1367293.1 ADMINISTRATION COMMITTEE Meeting Date 12/12/18 To Bd. of Dir. -- AGENDA REPORT Item Number 4 Item Number -- Orange County Sanitation District FROM: James D. Herberg, General Manager Originator: Celia Chandler, Director of Human Resources SUBJECT: POLICY EXCEPTION REGARDING EMPLOYMENT OF AN EMPLOYEE FOLLOWING RETIREMENT GENERAL MANAGER'S RECOMMENDATION Approve an exception to the Orange County Sanitation District (Sanitation District) Board of Directors Personnel Policy 1.4 on Recruitment and Selection (Policy). Specifically, staff requests a one-time exception to the Policy provision that ordinarily prohibits a former employee from doing business or providing services to the Sanitation District directly, through his/her own business, or indirectly through a contractor, for a period of one (1) year post-employment. BACKGROUND The Sanitation District Board of Directors Personnel Policies and Procedures Manual contains the terms, conditions, rules, and regulations of employment. The Recruitment and Selection Policy includes a provision that prohibits former employees from doing business with the Sanitation District as an independent contractor or consultant for a period of one (1) year post-employment, wherein the employee, his/her spouse, or members of his/her immediate family are sole proprietors, or majority or controlling shareholders or owners of a corporation, partnership, or other business entity. Furthermore, an entity may contract with the Sanitation District if the former employee is not a majority owner or does not have controlling interest in said entity. However, under the Recruitment and Selection Policy, the former employee shall not perform work on projects for the Sanitation District for a period of one (1) year post-employment; nor shall such former employee contact Sanitation District officers or employees for the purpose of attempting to influence any decision including, but not limited to, the award of contract, issuance of permits, or compromise of administrative civil penalties, for a like period of one (1) year. The Policy also includes a provision that allows the Administration Committee (Committee) to waive said prohibition on a case-by-case basis, if it is determined to be in the best interest of the Sanitation District to do so. The awarding of contracts and/or services would continue to be subject to the Sanitation District’s procurement rules and procedures. Staff is requesting for this prohibition to be waived by the Committee with regard to an Engineering Manager who will be retiring in 2019, and has been employed by the Sanitation District for over 28 years. There is a potential for the Sanitation District to Page 2 of 2 1367293.1 utilize his services directly or indirectly immediately post-employment, and it is in the best interest of the Sanitation District to take advantage of his valuable institutional knowledge. RELEVANT STANDARDS • Comply with OCSD Policy 1.4 Recruitment and Selection PROBLEM The Sanitation District anticipates a need to continue utilizing the skills and to minimize the loss in knowledge of an Engineering Manager shortly after his planned retirement in early 2019. In accordance with Policy, former employees are prohibited from doing business for the Sanitation District or providing services directly or indirectly for a period of one (1) year post-employment. PROPOSED SOLUTION Approve a one-time exception to the Recruitment and Selection Policy to allow the Sanitation District to continue immediately utilizing the skills of an Engineering Manager post-employment, and minimize the loss in institutional knowledge. TIMING CONCERNS Staff recommends approval of the one-time exception for continuity and to ensure a seamless transition following the retirement of an Engineering Manager, scheduled for early 2019. RAMIFICATIONS OF NOT TAKING ACTION Without approval, the Sanitation District may not have sufficient time for knowledge transfer or the ability to continue utilizing the knowledge and skills of the Engineering Manager post-employment.

If market or other material conditions necessitate offering a job candidate a pay rate up to the salary range mid-point, a Department Head may recommend, and with the concurrence of the Director of Human Resources, may approve the proposed hire rate. The General Manager, or designee, shall approve all recommended salary offers that would result in a new hire pay rate at Step 4 or greater. Under no circumstances should panel members (excluding the Human Resources representative) or any other OCSD employee discuss salary offers with candidates or make promises of any kind. Human Resources staff are the only employees authorized to engage in salary discussions with job candidates. 5.8.3 The Human Resources representative refers the candidate for hire and routes for approval by the Department Head and General Manager, if required. 5.8.4 When the referral for hire is approved, the Human Resources representative makes a verbal employment offer to the candidate, which is contingent upon results of a background investigation, and post offer physical and drug screen (if applicable). 5.8.5 The Human Resources representative schedules the post offer physical and drug screen (if applicable) for the candidate, works with the Department Head (or designee) to establish a potential start date and prepares a formal offer letter for the candidate. 5.8.6 When the Human Resources representative (or designee) has cleared the background investigation, post offer physical and drug screen (if applicable) results, the applicant will be contacted to confirm the employment offer. The Human Resources representative sends letters of regret to unsuccessful candidates. Current employees are contacted personally prior to receiving letters of regret. 5.8.7 The Human Resources representative coordinates the candidate’s start date. 5.8.8 In the event that a candidate is selected and voluntarily or involuntarily vacates the position prior to completing the required probationary period, the Human Resources Department, at the request of the Department Head (or designee), may exercise the option to extend an offer to the second candidate from the original interview process. __________________________________________________________________________________________ Personnel Policies & Procedures Manual Page 6 of 10 Effective: 09/26/18 Policy 1.4 Recruitment and Selection 6.0 PROMOTIONS 6.1 Promoted employees will receive the equivalent of a one (1) step increase in pay, not to exceed the top of the range for the new classification or the minimum rate of the new classification, whichever is greater. 6.1.1 Promotional increase in pay will be effective the first day of the next pay period following the approval of referral to hire by the Department Head (or designee). 7.0 EXCEPTIONS 7.1 EMPLOYMENT OF FORMER EMPLOYEES 7.1.1 Employment of former employees for full-time equivalent or part-time positions shall be subject to and conducted in accordance with this policy. 7.1.2 Employment of a former employee is subject to the approval of the General Manager and the Director of Human Resources. 7.1.3 In all cases, approval of the General Manager and the Director of Human Resources shall be obtained prior to an offer of employment to a former employee. 7.1.4 OCSD policy prohibits the rehire of former full-time, regular employees or “at-will” employees who: were terminated for workplace misconduct; resigned while charges were pending against the employee; resigned while serving a suspension; failed to provide two (2) weeks written notice in advance of resignation depending upon employment status, unless approved by the Director of Human Resources, or designee; or failed to return to work following an absence without leave of forty (40) consecutive work hours without notifying the immediate supervisor or the Human Resources Department with an acceptable reason for their absence. 7.1.5 If any former employee commences doing business wherein the employee, his/her spouse, or members of his/her immediate family are sole proprietors, or majority or controlling shareholders or owners of a corporation, partnership or other business entity, such business shall not be retained as an independent contractor or consultant to provide service directly to OCSD for a period of one (1) year after leaving OCSD’s employment. Thereafter, said business entity shall be allowed to contract with OCSD upon compliance with all resolutions and regulations of OCSD then in effect, relating to the procurement of services. 7.1.6 If any former employee becomes employed by any firm or business entity in which the former employee, his/her spouse or members of his/her immediate family own less than the majority or controlling interest in said entity, said entity shall not be prohibited from contracting with the OCSD. However, the former employee shall not perform work on OCSD projects for a period of one (1) year after leaving OCSD employment; nor shall such former employee contact OCSD officers or employees for the purpose of attempting to influence any OCSD decision, including but not limited to, the award of contract, issuance of permits, or compromise of administrative civil penalties, for a like period of one (1) year. Said services shall be obtained only in accordance with all rules and procedures of OCSD relating to procurement. 7.1.7 Any OCSD employee who receives an offer of employment or a request to __________________________________________________________________________________________ Personnel Policies & Procedures Manual Page 7 of 10 Effective: 09/26/18 Policy 1.4 Recruitment and Selection discuss potential employment from any person or business entity performing services for OCSD shall report such contact to his or her immediate supervisor, who shall decide whether any change in assignment is necessary or appropriate while the offer or discussions are pending. 7.1.8 The prohibitions of this policy may be waived by the Administration Committee of the Board of Directors if, on a case-by-case basis, it is determined to be in the best interests of OCSD to do so. 7.1.9 All former employees who are rehired will be placed on an initial probationary period as defined in this policy. All prior service with OCSD will not be counted for accrual purposes including, but not limited to, leaves of absence and seniority. 7.2 RE-EMPLOYMENT OF OCSD RETIRED EMPLOYEES 7.2.1 The General Manager may, with the written approval of the Board Chair, employ on an as-needed basis, a former employee retired from OCSD when the individual possesses knowledge and expertise of unique and particular benefit to OCSD. Retired members will have to wait at least 180 days before returning to work for OCSD on a limited time basis (960 hours or less a fiscal year). The length of service performed in any one (1) year shall be limited in accordance with the provisions prescribed by the Orange County Employees’ Retirement System. 7.2.2 As-needed service, by a former employee retired from OCSD, shall be compensated at the same current hourly rate of the retired employee’s position classification, or if no such classification exists, at a rate not to exceed that paid for the most comparable classification. The retired employee shall not be entitled to receive any benefits otherwise payable to OCSD employees. In the event any employment under this provision involves work assignments outside of Orange County, the current expense reimbursement policy established for regular employees will apply. 7.2.3 On occasion, OCSD may offer an early retirement incentive to staff under economic conditions in which it is deemed necessary. Employees who select an early retirement incentive offered by OCSD may not be eligible for rehire. 7.3 LATERAL TRANSFERS 7.3.1 Employees may request a lateral transfer to a budgeted vacant position within the same classification of another department. For a lateral transfer to be considered, the employee must have demonstrated satisfactory performance within the last six (6) months of the request and have no pending disciplinary action. The lateral transfer must be of benefit to OCSD. 7.3.2 Employees who wish to be considered for a lateral transfer shall notify the Human Resources Department in writing of their intent prior to recruitment of the budgeted position. Employees who are interested in a lateral transfer, but are unaware of any budgeted vacant positions within the same classification, may contact the Human Resources Department. The employee’s written intent must be approved by any affected department head and the Director of Human Resources. In the event a transfer is approved and accepted by the employee, __________________________________________________________________________________________ Personnel Policies & Procedures Manual Page 8 of 10 Effective: 09/26/18 Policy 1.4 Recruitment and Selection the department from which the employee is transferring may determine the effective date based upon operational requirements and a reasonable period of time to acquire a suitable replacement. 7.3.3 Lateral transfers do not normally involve increased levels of duties and responsibilities, or otherwise qualify as promotions, and therefore do not involve salary adjustments. 7.3.4 In the event an adjustment appears warranted based on extenuating circumstances, the adjustment must have written approval from the department head prior to being extended to the employee. 8.0 PROVISIONS AND CONDITIONS 8.1 The interview process for Student Intern positions shall be an abbreviated version of the process outlined in section 5.6 and will be administered by the appropriate division manager/supervisor and a Human Resources representative. 8.2 OCSD’s Board of Directors must approve unbudgeted positions for new hires or promotions before any internal or external recruitment effort is initiated. 8.3 Hiring an individual into a budgeted position requires the approval of the Department Head and General Manager. 8.4 Promoting an individual into a budgeted position requires the approval of the Division Manager, Department Head or General Manager. 8.5 Employees on Performance Improvement Plans are not eligible for promotional opportunities and/or status change. 8.6 INITIAL PROBATIONARY PERIOD 8.6.1 Unless designated as an “at-will” Executive Management Team (EMT) member or Student Intern, all new employees and employees who are reassigned or laterally transferred serve a probationary period. The probationary period begins with the date of hire, reassignment, or transfer and extends to at least the first day of the pay period following twenty-six (26) weeks of employment without a break in service, unless otherwise stipulated by a bargaining unit MOU. For new employees, this probationary period is regarded as an extension of the hiring process, and provides an opportunity for both the employee and OCSD’s management to assess, over a substantial period of time, whether or not the hiring decision was appropriate and resulted in a relationship that adequately meets the needs of both the individual and OCSD. 8.6.2 The probationary period may be extended up to a maximum of an additional ninety (90) days prior to the expiration of the probationary period. An employee’s probationary period may be extended when there is a need to further assess the individual’s abilities to satisfactorily perform the duties required for their job classification. Probationary employees may be released by OCSD at any time during the probationary period (including any extension) without cause or reason. OCSD will extend an employee’s probationary period for the length of any period during which an employee is on an extended leave of absence during the probationary period. 8.6.3 A probationary employee’s work performance is closely monitored during this __________________________________________________________________________________________ Personnel Policies & Procedures Manual Page 9 of 10 Effective: 09/26/18 Policy 1.4 Recruitment and Selection period to ensure that the employee understands the duties, responsibilities and management expectations of the position, and to allow an opportunity for the supervisor or manager to provide proper direction and guidance. Employees who do not demonstrate the potential for meeting performance expectations for their position within a reasonable period of time may be released prior to the completion of the Probationary Period. Probationary employees shall serve at the will of OCSD during this period. In the event of release of a probationary employee, the employee shall not be entitled to receive any severance pay. 8.7 PROMOTIONAL PROBATIONARY PERIOD 8.7.1 All promoted employees who have successfully completed the initial probationary period, except those designated as “at-will” employees, shall serve a promotional probationary period beginning with the effective date of promotion lasting to at least the first day of the pay period following twenty-six (26) weeks of employment without a break in service. This period is regarded as an extension of the selection process, and provides an opportunity for both the employee and OCSD management to assess, over a substantial period of time, whether or not the decision was appropriate. For those employees promoted during the pendency of their initial probationary period, such period shall run concurrently with the promotional probationary period and shall apply over the promotional probationary period while it remains in effect. Should the initial probationary period end before the promotional probationary period, the promoted employee shall remain on the promotional probationary period for the remaining period until at least the first day of the pay period following twenty-six (26) weeks of employment without a break in service. 8.7.2 At any time during the promotional probationary period an employee may be returned to his or her prior position. The promotional probationary period may be extended by OCSD management for up to a maximum of an additional ninety (90) days. If an employee is promoted during his or her initial probationary period, the period shall be extended until at least the first day of the pay period twenty-six (26) weeks after the effective date of the promotion. 8.8 REFERENCE CHECKS 8.8.1 Employment with OCSD is contingent upon a pre-employment screening process which may include a physical examination, drug/alcohol test and background investigation. Candidates must also be able to provide documentation authorizing their legal right to work in the United States as per the Immigration Reform and Control Act of 1986. 8.8.2 The background check will be conducted after an applicant has been selected as the best candidate for the position and given a conditional offer of employment. If a background check yields information that is of concern to OCSD, the applicant will be provided an individualized assessment and given an opportunity to review the findings and present information regarding inaccuracy and rehabilitation. 8.8.3 OCSD may verify information contained in the job application of a prospective employee with the prospective employee’s authorization. 8.8.4 Inquiries to OCSD employees regarding reference or employment verification checks of former or present employees shall be discussed with or referred to Human Resources prior to any response. __________________________________________________________________________________________ Personnel Policies & Procedures Manual Page 10 of 10 Effective: 09/26/18 Policy 1.4 Recruitment and Selection 9.0 RELATED DOCUMENTS 9.1 Policy 1.6, Nepotism 9.2 Policy 1.7, At-Will EMT Employment Agreements 9.3 Policy 1.12, Student Internship Program 9.4 Policy 2.1, Classification & Compensation 9.5 Policy 6.4, Problem Solving Procedure 9.6 Policy 6.5, Grievance Procedure 9.7 Public Employee Pension Reform Act (PEPRA) 9.8 Equal Pay Act 9.9 California Government Code, Section 6254 Page 1 of 1 ADMINISTRATION COMMITTEE Meeting Date 12/12/18 To Bd. of Dir. -- AGENDA REPORT Item Number 5 Item Number -- Orange County Sanitation District FROM: James D.
