ORANGE COUNTY SANITATION DISTRICT
Memorandum
September 25, 2013
TO: Chairman and Members of the Board of Directors
FROM: James D. Herberg, General Manager
SUBJECT: Fiscal Year 2012-2013 Year-End Revie
At the close of the 2012-13 Fiscal Year, I am pleased to present this year-end review of progress
on the General Manager's work plan.
1. LABOR NEGOTIATIONS: Conduct labor negotiations with the Supervisor Group and
Professional Group (S&P) bargaining units over successor labor agreements that expired
June 30, 2013, in compliance with the Meyers-Milias-Brown Act (MMBA).
STATUS: Preliminary discussions with the exclusive representative of the S&P
bargaining units occurred in December 2012. The S&P Groups' initial proposals were
provided on April 2na. Good faith bargaining in compliance with the MMBA is
demonstrated by the Sanitation District in the following:
• Seven meet and confer sessions conducted in the past three months.
• Six proposals/counterproposals exchanged over that period.
• Three meetings conducted by the Board to consider S&P proposals over that
period, including one special meeting.
• Two of those Board meetings were conducted prior to the adoption of the Fiscal
Year 2013-2014 budget, and the third one occurred at the Board meeting during
which the budget was adopted.
Return to Agenda Report
• The Board provided negotiating instructions during conference with Its labor
representatives during the three meetings,following thoughtful consideration of
S&P proposals.
The S&P Groups are currently considering the Sanitation District's June 27,h
counterproposal. The Sanitation District continues to meet its duty to bargain and
anticipates receiving a response from S&P in the near future.
The Memoranda of Understanding for the Local 501 and OCEA bargaining units expire
on June 30, 2014.
2. PUBLIC OUTREACH: Undertake aggressive public education and outreach efforts
leading up to June 2013 Board vote on rates.
STATUS: COMPLETED. Staff developed a comprehensive outreach plan that focused
on community outreach and elected official support to both lay the foundation, as well
as inform the various audiences of the critical work that OCSD does and the important
decision that the Board of Directors would be faced with regarding rates. Beginning in
July 2012, OCSD provided 142 plant tours, spoke at more than 30 events including high
profile engagements such as city council meetings,special districts Board meetings, and
professional organizations including the Orange County Business Council (OCBC),Orange
County Taxpayer Association (OCTax), and various Chambers of Commerce. We
received letters of support endorsing the proposed rate Increase from both OCBC and
OCTax. In addition, OCSD participated in 30 community events and for the first time
ever, hosted a joint Open House with the Orange County Water District that was
attended by over 1,000 people. These efforts provided direct contact by OCSD to more
than 5,000 OCSD customers.
3. RATE PROPOSAL: Recommend a rate program for Board approval no later than June
2013.
2
STATUS: COMPLETED. Over the past two years, the Board Chair and Vice Chair have
worked closely with the General Manager and staff to thoroughly explore options for a
sustainable rate schedule to replace the rate schedule that expired on June 30,
2013. After extensive meetings among Board leadership and Committee briefings, staff
has proposed a five-year rate program that essentially addresses inflationary increases
(4.8% in the first year followed by 2.4% in the following years) while maintaining our
current level of service. These rate adjustments were minimized by various cost
efficiencies and the prudent use of District reserves; and will keep OCSD's rates in the
bottom third of its comparable agencies. Following additional analysis, presentations to
member cities and agencies and Committee and Board meetings, at its April Board
meeting, the Board approved the proposed new five-year rate program which achieves
the goals of keeping OCSD's rates among the lowest in the state, issues no new debt and
prudently reduces it reserves. These rates went into effect July 1, 2013.
4. SECONDARY TREATMENT: Complete commissioning of secondary treatment by the
December 31, 2012 consent decree deadline and optimize the various treatment
processes considering cost, compliance, and GWRS requirements. Conduct a
celebratory event in fall 2012 to recognize this historic milestone.
STATUS: COMPLETED. This $600 million construction project is complete and all of the
facilities are constructed, tested and in operation. The facilities are operating in
accordance with a secondary treatment operational study that was completed in 2011
to optimize the operation of the secondary treatment facilities relative to meeting
permit conditions, reducing risk and reducing costs. In October 2012, the Sanitation
District held a dedication ceremony to celebrate the completion of the secondary
treatment program and to mark this milestone for the Sanitation District and for the
public. General Counsel has petitioned the federal district court to dismiss the consent
decree.

S. OCEAN PROTECTION AND DISINFECTION: Complete water quality studies and
recommend a solution for improving environmental conditions around the ocean
outfall.
STATUS: COMPLETED. Since 2005, there has been a gradual decline in the population
of marine organisms that live in the sediments around our ocean outfall discharge. Staff
has concluded ten special studies that in total indicate effluent disinfection with bleach
is likely the primary cause for the decline due to the formation of chlorination by-
products,as well as the presence of chlorination and de-chlorination chemical residuals.
Decreased final effluent flow, especially during low flow periods, as a result of supplying
100 million gallons per day of effluent to GWRS, was initially suspected to be a
contributing factor to the observed affects, however, after further investigation, staff
concludes that it is not likely a contributing factor. With OCSD treating influent
wastewater to full secondary standards beginning in May 2011, bleach addition has
been substantially reduced and staff has seen improvement in the marine ecosystem
around the outfall,though it is unclear whether full recovery can be achieved.
Draft final reports have been prepared addressing not only the likely causation of the
observed marine ecosystem affects, but also whether or not OCSD's disinfection of our
treated effluent has resulted In any improved public health protection. Preliminary
discussions with OC Health Care Agency staff to gauge the feasibility of ceasing
disinfection has been initiated and staff will be discussing this issue with the Board at
the upcoming Strategic Planning workshop.
6. TRANSITION PLAN: Successfully implement the Steering Committee's General Manager
transition plan by April 1, 2013.
STATUS: COMPLETED. The new Director of Engineering, Nick Kanetis, started on
January 21 and I assumed the role of General Manager on April 1,as scheduled.

7. SAWPA ARBITRATION: Working with General Counsel, aggressively pursue successful
outcome on SAWPA's arbitration claim.
STATUS: Document discovery and interrogatories for the arbitration claim are
complete. Parties continue to proceed with percipient witness depositions. The final
percipient witness for OCSD was deposed July 9". The percipient witness depositions
should be completed by August 1". The parties exchanged their designation of expert
witnesses on June &", the parties may supplement their expert witness lists by July
19`". The Sanitation District at this time does not foresee any reason to supplement its
expert witness designation. Expert witness depositions should be concluded by
September 18, 2013. Reserved Hearing Dates for the arbitration are as
follows: November 7,8, 13, 14, 15,25, 26, 27.
B. LOCAL SEWER TRANSFERS: Complete the transfer of local sewers to member agencies
and cities,focusing on completion of the Tustin transfer.
STATUS: Staff continues to work with the City of Tustin to transfer 174 miles of small
diameter local sewers within Tustin and the unincorporated areas north of the City
including El Modena in the City of Orange's sphere of influence. The City met with OCSD
and requested additional time to evaluate the proposal and work with its City Council.
We expect a conclusion by December 2013. OCSD currently collects a local fee in these
areas.
The City of Anaheim has accepted the transfer of 3.02 miles of local sewers in Ball,
Walnut, Katella, and Ninth Streets.
Discussions have also been held with the City of Santa Ana, City of Huntington Beach,
City of Orange, Costa Mesa Sanitary District and the City of Newport Beach regarding
potential transfer of local sewer facilities from OCSD. The 2013-14 Strategic Planning
process will provide additional direction regarding the transfer of sewers.

9. TRANSPARENCY: In response to Grand Jury recommendations, complete upgrades to
OCSD website to enhance transparency related to compensation and benefits
information and undertake performance audits of various programs.
STATUS: COMPLETED. On June 14, 2012, the Orange County Grand Jury released a
report entitled, "Transparency Breaking Up Compensation Fog— But Why Hide Pension
Costs?' The report evaluated each city, county and special district website for
compensation cost transparency.
This report assigned OCSD an "A" grade for accessibility and a less than favorable grade
for reporting executive and employee compensation. We launched a new section on
our Website called OoenGov that, among other things, displays compensation
information, in a format consistent with the recommendations of the Grand Jury.
OpenGov is our way of showing how important transparency is to us. This is a tool to
locate documents and a resource for navigating the governmental maze of
requirements, regulations, and information as well as an educational resource for the
public to learn about who we are and what we do.
In addition to these enhancements, we also offer an "e-notify" system. By signing up,
the public can be notified by email when new Board agendas, minutes, or other reports
are posted. Over the past year, we extended our outreach with the use of Twitter
YouTube Facebook and other social media communities. Finally, OCSD staff, working
with a Board appointed audit subcommittee, undertakes an external review of selected
programs to ensure they are operating efficiently and in accordance with the Board of
Directors' policies and procedures. Recent examples include audits of debt
management, sole source contracts, information technology, asset management, and
construction contracts.
10. WORKFORCE PLANNING AND DEVELOPMENT: Continue to develop comprehensive
workforce planning and development activities that improve workforce capability,
P"'.6
adaptability, efficiency, and accountability, and that address employee turnover and
retirements.
STATUS: Workforce planning and development activities remain a priority for the
Sanitation District.These activities are focused on ensuring available technical skills and
knowledge in the labor pool and leadership development. Staff engages organizations
external to the Sanitation District to maximize these efforts, as well as leverages internal
resources to improve on these opportunities.
Highlights of such activities include the following:
Orange County Workforce Investment Board (OCW IB)
A partnership has been developed with the OCWIB to:
• Pursue recruitment outreach to the community and veterans;
• Provide training fund subsidies for new hires;
• Program for labor pool needs with local educational institutions;
• Advertise job openings through the OCWIB One-Stop Career Center; and,
• Organize a water/wastewater industry symposium for October 2013 to identify
industry needs.
Vocational Internship Program (expansion including Veterans)
Steps have been taken to ensure that viable pools of qualified applicants are accessible
in the future for Sanitation District operations and maintenance jobs by establishing
partnerships with Santiago Canyon Community College and San Bernardino Valley
College for paid internships.
• Santiago canyon College
A Vocational Internship Program was initiated in cooperation with Santiago
Canyon Community College in 2010. The program remains ongoing, expanding
Ng".
Return W Aaentla Reoort
from two interns to six in July 2013. Participating students are required to be
enrolled in the Water Utility Science course of study.
• San Bernardino Valley College
Similarly, a relationship has been established with San Bernardino Valley College.
The relationship supports U.S. Veterans, of which seven are participating. The
Veterans were welcomed at a reception and workplace orientation in June 2013.
Participating Veterans are required to be enrolled in the Water Supply
Technology Program.
These internships provide access over a 52-week period to hands-on learning
environments in our workplace. Students develop meaningful career-related knowledge
and gain practical job-related experience, rotating through five different work areas:
plant operations; collections system operations; mechanical maintenance; rebuild shop;
and, electrical and instrumentation support. Students from both colleges earn
educational credits toward an associate degree or certificate in their respective
programs and work toward qualifying for wastewater industry professional association
and/or state wastewater certification exams.
Local Water Advisory Committee
Staff established a collaborative effort between local water/wastewater agencies and
community colleges to address educational program needs, future industry needs, and
workforce development efforts.
Building Leaders.Abilities. and Skills for Tomorrow(BLAST)
The BLAST program remains critical for the ongoing development of the workforce. Job
shadowing was Implemented as a resource available to interested employees. Onsite
training opportunities offered through the BLAST program have been utilized by
employees, with 167 employees having participated in at least one of the bi-monthly
Rig'S
leadership training courses or Supervisor Transition and Readiness Training
(S.T.A.R.T.). The BLAST program training schedule was established for FY 2013/2014.
11. SAFETY AND SECURITY: Working with the Department of Homeland Security,conduct a
thorough assessment of our emergency preparedness planning and fill identified gaps,
including business continuity planning, and security upgrades to treatment plants and
pump stations.
STATUS: Risk Management reviewed its third party Voluntary Protection Program
(VPP) Gap Analysis study to compare OCSD's safety program improvement to the 2010
VPP Gap Analysis. OCSD has improved its safety programs based upon the study from
meeting 81% of Cal/OSHA safety program requirements to meeting 92%. Staff worked
with the OC Sheriff, DHS, and CaIEMA to receive approximately $130,000 in grant
funding to improve security at its Plant No. 1 facility. The funding was used to replace
analog video cameras with digital and to upgrade support equipment along with video
data storage capacity. Based upon the cyber key study success at Rocky Point Pump
Station, staff implemented the cyber key out to all pump stations. OCSD has contacted
other public agencies to compare Business Continuity Plans (RCP) to develop OCSD's
BCP. Risk Management will coordinate the organization's efforts to ensure the agency is
prepared in the event daily operations are interrupted. OCSD is in the process of signing
a Memorandum of Understanding with the County to use their Alert OC mass
notification system. The system will allow OCSD to send out mass notification, similar to
reverse 911, to tell residents and businesses in specific areas not to use the sewer if
there were a failure or clog that would cause a spill.
12. STRATEGIC PLAN: Conduct a strategic planning Board workshop in October 2012 and
prepare the annual update of the 5-year strategic plan in December 2012 with a critical
review of our levels of service.
page 9
Re(xn to Ao da Rw.rt
STATUS: COMPLETED. A Strategic Planning workshop was held in October 2012 and
the updated strategic plan was unanimously approved by the Board of Directors in
December 2012. The updated strategic plan includes several new strategic initiatives
related to chemical sustainability, business continuity planning and biosolids recycling
policy. The plan also updates several levels of service related to odor complaints,
secondary treatment standards,and biosolids recycling.
We are making good progress implementing the Board's Strategic Plan that was
adopted in October 2012. Staff has completed 50 percent of the current Strategic Plan
goals,with 50 percent scheduled for completion in 2013/14. OCSD is currently meeting
87 percent of its level of service targets and we have plans and projects in place to
achieve the remaining targets over the next several years. We will bring forward the
complete list of results for the 2012-13 Strategic Plan during the annual Strategic
Planning workshop sessions which will occur in the fall of 2013.
13. CHEMICAL SUSTAINABILITY: Continue efforts to ensure strategic positioning in the
market by creating competitive markets for chemicals and reducing utilization of
chemicals.
STATUS: For over 15 years, OCSD had been dependent on a single supplier for ferric
chloride. Over the last year,staff proactively worked with potential suppliers and other
regional wastewater entities to attract new suppliers in a single source dominated ferric
chloride supply market. At the May 2013 Board Meeting, multiple vendor contract
awards were approved for all four qualified vendors who submitted proposals in
response to the Sanitation District's ferric chloride RFP, resulting in a 15 percent annual
savings compared to the previous single source contract. The multiple vendor
contracts will significantly mitigate potential regulatory compliance and fiscal
implications related to the risk of ferric supply disruption from its current single source.
Staff will continue its efforts to ensure chemical sustainability for all chemicals used in
the treatment plant, including polymers. These efforts will include evaluating use of
Page 10
alternative chemicals, usage optimization and encouraging a competitive chemical
supply market environment.
14. CAPITAL IMPROVEMENT PROGRAM: Continue the transition from expansion to
rehabilitation in our CIP program,with a focus on completing key projects Including SARI
line, secondary treatment, and beach box repair. Integrate supplemental CIP program
staffing through Jacobs Engineering project management consulting services.
STATUS: Over the last year, the secondary treatment expansion program came to a
close with the completion of all of the major secondary treatment projects and a
petition in for dismissal of the EPA consent decree. Key rehabilitation projects in the
capital improvement program continue to move forward, including rehabilitating and
replacing the biosolids dewatering facilities at both treatment plants, digester
rehabilitations at both treatment plants and several pipeline rehabilitations in the cities
of Newport Beach and Tustin.
The Santa Ana River Interceptor (SARI) pipeline project being completed through the
County of Orange is continuing construction and remains on schedule to be completed
in late 2013, prior to the 2013-14 rain season.
Earlier this year,the Sanitation District successfully completed the difficult rehabilitation
of the primary ocean outfall pipeline and beach box which is an extremely sensitive
facility. Both the ocean outfall project and the SARI pipeline project remove critical risks
for the treatment facilities.
Several sewer rehabilitation projects in the Cities of Newport Beach and Tustin are
moving forward with the first of these projects starting construction in early July, while
others are being advertised for construction currently or in the near future. The major
biosolids dewatering facility is starting construction at Plant No. 1 with the Plant No. 2
project scheduled to be advertised for construction in late 2013. Jacobs Engineering is
assisting staff where needed to provide timely and efficient resources to keep projects
moving forward successfully.

Return to Agenda Report
15. ADMINISTRATIVE FACILITIES MASTER PLAN: Complete a comprehensive study of space
planning needs by October 2012 and implement recommendations for access
compliance improvements and office building options.
STATUS: A study was completed by the Austin Company in October 2012 that reviewed
all of the Sanitation District's administrative facilities and recommended potential
master plan solutions taking into account the business needs of the Sanitation District,
the age and condition of the facilities and compliance with building codes. These
recommended alternatives will be presented to the Board through the strategic
planning process. Board direction will serve as a guide for future improvement projects
to these facilities.

SUBJECT: PLANT WATER SYSTEM REHABILITATION AT PLANT NO. 1,
PROJECT NO. P1-112, AND PLANT WATER SYSTEM
REHABILITATION AT PLANT NO. 2, PROJECT NO. P2-101
GENERAL MANAGER'S RECOMMENDATION
A. Approve a decrease in the budget for Plant Water System Rehabilitation at Plant
No.1, Project No. P1-112, by $475,000 for a total project budget of $9,094,000;
and
B. Approve an increase in the budget for Plant Water System Rehabilitation at Plant
No. 2, Project No. 132-101, by $475,000 for a total project budget of $4,484,000;
and
C. Approve plans and specifications for Plant Water System Rehabilitation at Plant
No. 1, Project No.P1-112, and Plant Water System Rehabilitation at Plant No. 2,
Project No. P2-101, on file at the Office of the Clerk of the Board;
D. Approve Addendum Nos. 1, 2, and 3 to the plans and specifications; and
E. Receive and file bid tabulation and recommendation; and
F. Award a construction contract to W. M. Lyles Co. for Plant Water System
Rehabilitation at Plant No. 1, Project No. 131-112, and Plant Water System
Rehabilitation at Plant No. 2, Project No. P2-101, for a total amount not to
exceed $6,038,000; and
G. Approve a contingency of $374,300 (10%) for Plant Water System Rehabilitation
at Plant No. 1, Project No. P1-112; and
H. Approve a contingency of $275,400 (12%) for Plant Water System Rehabilitation
at Plant No. 2, Project No. 132-101.
SUMMARY
The purpose of Plant Water System Rehabilitation at Plant No. 1, Project P1-112 and
Plant Water System Rehabilitation at Plant No. 2, Project P2-101, is to rehabilitate or
replace deteriorated plant water pipes and valves at both plants.
Page 1 of 3
To be efficient, both of these projects were bid together as one contract since the type
of work, engineering discipline and professional trades are very similar and an
administrative savings could be realized on managing the construction of the two
projects together as one. The construction costs will be tracked separately between the
two projects as budgeted.
The design work for Project No. P2-101 was completed by Carollo Engineers in the
spring 2013, and the design work for Project No. P1-112 was completed by in-house
engineers in the spring 2013.
The Orange County Sanitation District (Sanitation District) advertised for bids on
June 11, 2013. Four sealed bids were received on July 30, 2013. The bids were
evaluated in accordance with the Sanitation District's policies and procedures. W. M.
Lyles Co. was deemed the lowest responsive, responsible bidder.
The total bid amount was significantly lower than the engineers estimate. However, the
individual project bid for Project No. P2-101 was higher than budgeted. A budget
increase for Project No. P2-101 is being recommended, along with a commensurate
decrease in budget for Project No. P1-112 to keep the overall Capital Improvement
Program budget unchanged.
Staff recommends awarding a construction contract to W. M. Lyles Co. for Plant Water
System Rehabilitation at Plant No. 1, Project No. P1-112, and Plant Water System
Rehabilitation at Plant No. 2, Project No. P2-101, for a total amount not to exceed
$6,038,000.
A contingency for change orders is being requested at 10% for Project No. P1-112 and
12% for Project No. P2-101 due to the higher than normal risks associated with
rehabilitation work in congested tunnels with limited access.
Summary information regarding project budget and bid costs is as follows:
P2-112/P2-101
Project Budget $13,578,000
Construction Contract Budget $ 7,320,000

indicated in the Plans and not mentioned in the Specifications, shall be of like
effect as if indicated and mentioned in both. In case of discrepancy in the
Plans or Specifications, the matter shall be immediately submitted to OCSD's
ENGINEER, without whose decision CONTRACTOR shall not adjust said
discrepancy save only at CONTRACTOR's own risk and expense. The
decision of the ENGINEER shall be final.

its or their officers, agents, or employees, or any other contractor or subcontractor
performing Work or rendering services at the Projects. Where permitted by law,
CONTRACTOR shall require similar written express waivers and insurance clauses

to migration of pollutants from the site, resulting from the escape or release of
smoke, vapors, fumes, acids, alkalis, toxic chemicals, liquids or gases, waste
materials, or other irritants, contaminants or pollutants.
If CONTRACTOR provides coverage written on a claims-made basis, OCSD has the
right to approve or reject such coverage in its own discretion. If written on a claims-
made basis, the CONTRACTOR warrants that any retroactive date applicable to

CONTRACTOR or OCSD which has not been communicated in writing
by the CONTRACTOR to OCSD as of the date of the certificate;
c. All warranties are in full force and effect, and;

SUBJECT: GAS FACILITIES STUDY FOR PLANTS 1 & 2, PROJECT NO. SP-141
GENERAL MANAGER'S RECOMMENDATION
A. Approve a Professional Services Agreement with Black & Veatch Corporation for
providing Gas Facilities Study for Plants 1 & 2, Project No. SP-141, for an
amount not to exceed $665,021; and,
B. Approve a contingency of$13,306 (2%)
SUMMARY
The Orange County Sanitation District (Sanitation District) desires the services of a
consulting engineering firm to conduct a comprehensive study of the digester gas
facilities at Plant Nos. 1 and 2.
The facilities consist of low-pressure digester gas (LPDG) distribution piping from
anaerobic sludge digesters, gas compressor buildings with gas compressors and
associated dehumidification equipment, high-pressure digester gas (HPDG) piping to
the Central Generation (CenGen) Buildings, and HPDG interplant line, HPDG flares,
activated carbon vessels, and a low-pressure digester gas holder. The facilities were
built during the 1980s and commissioned in the early 1990s and are in need of
upgrading and optimization to meet current and future needs. In addition, equipment
obsolescence and equipment at the end of useful life must be addressed.
The purpose of this study is to address these needs by providing capacity and needs
study, gas treatment1cleaning, operational and regulation evaluation, equipment
condition assessment, and evaluation of alternatives with recommendations and budget
estimates. The results of this study will be used to identify and plan future rehabilitation
efforts for the Digester Gas System Improvements, Project No. J-124.
In response to a Request for Proposal (RFP) four fines submitted proposals. Sanitation
District staff reviewed the proposals in accordance with Sanitation District policy. Based
on the project understanding and approach, related project experience, and project
team and qualifications, staff recommends awarding a Professional Services Agreement
(PSA)to Black &Veatch Corporation, for an amount not to exceed $665,021.
Page 1 of 3
This comprehensive study is recommended because there are several major issues
with the digester gas handling systems that are interrelated.
An overall plan is needed to clarify and resolve those issues, and provide a
comprehensive scope of work for future Project No. J-124, Digester Gas System
Improvements.
The Sanitation District will benefit greatly by having a consistent facility-wide
assessment of the digester gas system that addresses equipment condition problems,
capacity expansion, new technology opportunities, and anticipated regulatory drivers.

received. A panel of staff members reviewed and ranked each proposal in accordance
with the evaluation process set forth in the Sanitation District's Resolution No. OCSD
07-04, Section 5.07. The proposals were evaluated and ranked according to the
following criteria:
Evaluation Criteria Weighting

The Black & Veatch team has the combination of the digester gas facilities assessment
and wastewater treatment plant design experience needed to develop responsive and
practical alternatives. The Black & Veatch team has a full services project team of
experienced managers, engineers, and designers with competitive hourly rates. Based
on the above, staff determined the final cost proposal of $665,021 to be fair and
reasonable for the scope of work.
Background
There are several major issues with the Digester Gas handling systems that are
interrelated. An overall plan is needed to clarify and resolve those issues.
Scope of Work
The proposed study will conduct a comprehensive study of the digester gas facilities at
Plants No. 1 and 2 (both plants) in Fountain Valley and Huntington Beach.
The Scope Elements are summarized below:
1. Develop a capacity and needs study of the digester gas facilities at both plants.
2. Evaluate current and anticipated future AQMD and NFPA requirements pertaining to
the digester gas facilities at both plants.
3. Evaluate and mitigate operational concerns for the digester gas facilities at both
plants.
4. Provide a condition assessment of the digester gas facilities at both plants.
5. Produce an evaluation of the various alternatives recommended in the previous
elements, development of preferred alternatives, and prepare budget estimates for
future operation of the digester gas facilities at both plants.

and all of SANITATION DISTRICT'S officers, directors, employees,
CONSULTANT's, and agents (collectively the "Indemnified Parties"), from and
against any and all claims, damages, liabilities, causes of action, suits, arbitration
awards, losses,judgments, fines, penalties, costs and expenses (including,
without limitation, attomeys' fees, disbursements and court costs, and all other
professional, expert or CONSULTANT'S fees and costs and the SANITATION
DISTRICT'S general and administrative expenses; individually, a "Claim";
collectively, "Claims")which may arise from, pertain to, or relate to any work
performed, or any operations, activities, or services provided by CONSULTANT
in carrying out its obligations under this AGREEMENT to the extent of the
negligent, recklessness and/or willful misconduct of CONSULTANT, its
principals, officers, agents, employees, CONSULTANT'S suppliers,
CONSULTANT, subconsultants, subcontractors, and/or anyone employed
directly or indirectly by any of them, regardless of any contributing negligence or
strict liability of an Indemnified Party. Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing
herein shall be construed to require CONSULTANT to indemnify the Indemnified
Parties from any Claim arising solely from:
PSA -15- SP-141
Rev 052312
(A) the active negligence or willful misconduct of the Indemnified Parties; or
(B) a natural disaster or other act of God, such as an earthquake; or
(C)the independent action of a third party who is neither one of the Indemnified
Parties nor the CONSULTANT, nor its principal, officer, agent, employee, nor
CONSULTANT'S supplier, CONSULTANT, subconsultant, subcontractor, nor
anyone employed directly or indirectly by any of them.
Exceptions (A)through (B) above shall not apply, and CONSULTANT shall, to
the fullest extent permitted by law, indemnify the Indemnified Parties, from
Claims arising from more than one cause if any such cause taken alone would
otherwise result in the obligation to indemnify hereunder.
CONSULTANT'S liability for indemnification hereunder is in addition to any
liability CONSULTANT may have to the SANITATION DISTRICT for a breach by
CONSULTANT of any of the provisions of this AGREEMENT. Under no
circumstances shall the insurance requirements and limits set forth in this
AGREEMENT be construed to limit CONSULTANT'S indemnification obligation
or other liability hereunder. The terms of this AGREEMENT are contractual and
the result of negotiation between the parties hereto. Accordingly, any rule of
construction of contracts (including, without limitation, California Civil Code
Section 1654) that ambiguities are to be construed against the drafting party,
shall not be employed in the interpretation of this AGREEMENT.
23. DUTY TO DEFEND. The duty to defend hereunder is wholly independent of and
separate from the duty to indemnify and such duty to defend shall exist
regardless of any ultimate liability of CONSULTANT and shall be consistent with
Civil Code section 2782.8. Such defense obligation shall arise immediately upon
presentation of a Claim by any person if, without regard to the merit of the Claim,
such Claim could potentially result in an obligation to indemnify one or more
Indemnified Parties, and upon written notice of such Claim being provided to
CONSULTANT. Payment to CONSULTANT by any Indemnified Party or the
payment or advance of defense costs by any Indemnified Party shall not be a
condition precedent to enforcing such Indemnified Party's rights to
indemnification hereunder. In the event a final judgment, arbitration, award,
order, settlement, or other final resolution expressly determines that the claim did
not arise out of, pertain to, or relate to the negligence, recklessness, or willful
misconduct of the CONSULTANT, to any extent, then the DISTRICT will
reimburse CONSULTANT for the reasonable costs of defending the Indemnified
Parties against such claims.
CONSULTANT'S indemnification obligation hereunder shall survive the
expiration or earlier termination of this AGREEMENT until such time as action
against the Indemnified Parties for such matter indemnified hereunder is fully and
finally barred by the applicable statute of limitations.

22. INDEMNIFICATION
To the fullest extent permitted by law, CONSULTANT shall indemnify, defend (at
CONSULTANT'S sole cost and expense and with legal counsel approved by the
SANITATION DISTRICT, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld), protect
and hold harmless the SANITATION DISTRICT and all of SANITATION DISTRICT'S
officers, directors, employees, CONSULTANT's, and agents (collectively the
"Indemnified Parties"), from and against any and all claims, damages, liabilities, causes
of action, suits, arbitration awards, losses,judgments, fines, penalties, costs and
expenses (including, without limitation, attomeys' fees, disbursements and court costs,
and all other professional, expert or CONSULTANT'S fees and costs and the
SANITATION DISTRICT'S general and administrative expenses; individually, a "Claim";
collectively, "Claims')which may arise from or are in any manner related, directly or
indirectly, to any work performed, or any operations, activities, or services provided by
CONSULTANT in carrying out its obligations under this Agreement to the extent of the
negligent, recklessness and/or willful misconduct of CONSULTANT, its principals,
officers, agents, employees, CONSULTANT'S suppliers, CONSULTANT,
Subconsultants, subcontractors, and/or anyone employed directly or indirectly by any of
them, regardless of any contributing negligence or strict liability of an Indemnified Party.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing herein shall be construed to require
PCSA P2-101
Revised 07/29/13 Plant Water System Rehabilitation at Plant No.2
Page 13 of 16
CONSULTANT to indemnify the Indemnified Parties from any Claim arising solely from:
(A)the active negligence or willful misconduct of the Indemnified Parties; or
(B)a natural disaster or other act of God, such as an earthquake; or
(C)the independent action of a third party who is neither one of the Indemnified Parties
nor the CONSULTANT, nor its principal, officer, agent, employee, nor
CONSULTANT'S supplier, CONSULTANT, Subconsultant, subcontractor, nor
anyone employed directly or indirectly by any of them.
Exceptions (A)through (B) above shall not apply, and CONSULTANT shall, to the fullest
extent permitted by law, indemnify the Indemnified Parties, from Claims arising from
more than one cause if any such cause taken alone would otherwise result in the
obligation to indemnify hereunder.
CONSULTANT'S liability for indemnification hereunder is in addition to any liability
CONSULTANT may have to the SANITATION DISTRICT for a breach by
CONSULTANT of any of the provisions of this Agreement. Under no circumstances
shall the insurance requirements and limits set forth in this Agreement be construed to
limit CONSULTANT'S indemnification obligation or other liability hereunder. The terms
of this Agreement are contractual and the result of negotiation between the parties
hereto. Accordingly, any rule of construction of contracts (including, without limitation,
California Civil Code Section 1654)that ambiguities are to be construed against the
drafting party, shall not be employed in the interpretation of this Agreement.
23. DUTY TO DEFEND
The duty to defend hereunder is wholly independent of and separate from the duty to
indemnify and such duty to defend shall exist regardless of any ultimate liability of
CONSULTANT and shall be consistent with Civil Code Section 2782.8. Such defense
obligation shall arise immediately upon presentation of a Claim by any person if, without
regard to the merit of the Claim, such Claim could potentially result in an obligation to
indemnify one or more Indemnified Parties, and upon written notice of such Claim being
provided to CONSULTANT. Payment to CONSULTANT by any Indemnified Party or the
payment or advance of defense costs by any Indemnified Party shall not be a condition
precedent to enforcing such Indemnified Party's rights to indemnification hereunder. In
the event a final judgment, arbitration, award, order, settlement, or other final resolution
expressly determines that the claim did not arise out of, pertain to, or relate to the
negligence, recklessness, or willful misconduct of the CONSULTANT, to any extent,
then the DISTRICT will reimburse CONSULTANT for the reasonable costs of defending
the Indemnified Parties against such claims.
CONSULTANT'S indemnification obligation hereunder shall survive the expiration or
earlier termination of this Agreement until such time as action against the Indemnified
Parties for such matter indemnified hereunder is fully and finally barred by the applicable
statute of limitations.

Orange County Sanitation District
FROM: James D. Herberg, General Manager
Originator: Robert Ghirelli, Assistant General Manager
SUBJECT: ELECTRONIC RECORDING MEMORANDUM OF UNDERSTANDING
COUNTY OF ORANGE CLERK-RECORDER'S OFFICE
GENERAL MANAGER'S RECOMMENDATION
A. Approve the Electronic Recording Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) with
the County of Orange, Clerk-Recorders office; and
B. Authorize the Clerk of the Board, or her designee, to transmit/record any and all
required Orange County Sanitation District real property documents in an
electronic format.
SUMMARY
The County of Orange, Clerk-Recorder's Office accepts electronically recorded
documents in lieu of written paper documents. OCSD and the Clerk-Recorder have
determined that an electronic recordation system benefits both entities economically
and operationally. Valuable staff hours are saved in the transportation of documents to
and from the County with long waiting periods for recordation.
Clerk-Recorder staff installs the Electronic Recording (ER) software on a workstation
provided by the District at a secured location in the Board Services Vault. This ER
computer workstation will be exclusively dedicated to Electronic Recording and may
only be used to transmit documents to, or receiving messages/confirmations from the
Clerk-Recorder's Office. The workstation cannot be used by OCSD staff for any other
function. A Cybercard is required for the recordation function and will be controlled and
used solely by the Clerk of the Board or her designee. The recording takes a few
minutes and an answer is received within hours of either its successful recordation or a
notification of its failure and reason why.
There is no direct cost to the District, as the County will install the system on District
provided dedicated equipment. The County will also provide training to the appropriate
staff during installation at our facility, and will further maintain and update the system
free of charge. The minimal indirect cost of the Board Services staff time maintaining
the system and recording documents is still a substantial savings in comparison to the
existing indirect cost of other district staff's travel time (to/from County offices), postage
costs, locating, routing and/or transferring documents to other departments.

PRIOR COMMITTEE/BOARD ACTIONS
N/A
ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
The County Electronic Recording program was established in May 1997, and has grown
from a few hundred documents a day an average of 2,500 documents daily and the total
number of electronically recorded documents now successfully exceed 4.4 million.
The City Clerk's Offices of Huntington Beach, Laguna Beach, and several other Orange
County cities, have been using the ER Program for many years and completely endorse
this successful program; citing more accurate recordings, no loss of vital documents
and greater time savings.
CEQA
N/A
BUDGET/DELEGATION OF AUTHORITY COMPLIANCE
This request complies with the authority levels of the Sanitation District's Delegation of
Authority. Orange County Sanitation District is exempt from recording costs. The cost
of additional Cybercards is $50.00 each, which will be absorbed by Board Services if
the need for an additional card is required.

ELECTRONIC RECORDING
MEMORANDUM OF UNDERSTANDING
This Memorandum of Understanding dated September 25, 2013, is between the Orange
County Clerk-Recorder and Orange County Sanitation District, recording electronically in
Orange County.
For purposes of this memorandum of understanding, Electronic Recording is defined as:
a. The transmission of real property documents in electronic format by an
authorized title company, mortgage banker, full service bank official or other
trusted entity over an internet connection to the Recorder's Office in Santa Ana
and,
b. The County Clerk-Recorder's deputized examiners will perform a document
examination using the same procedures and standards as those used by
conventional methods of recording. A confirmation will be transmitted back to the
party requesting the recording that indicates the recording has been completed.
This confirmation does include the recording endorsement.
C. In cases of documents rejected in the recording process, return of the rejected
imaged documents along with the explanatory notice to the title company,
mortgage banker, full service bank or other trusted entity over the same internet
connection and subsequently the transmission back to the Recorder's Office with
the appropriate corrections having been made prior to the 4:00 p.m. recording
deadline. In general, it is understood that:
d. All state licensed title companies, mortgage bankers, full service banks or other
trusted entities doing business in Orange County and/or serving Orange County
residents are eligible to participate in the Electronic Recording Program.
e. Participation in the Electronic Recording Program is voluntary and the decision to
do so is a business judgment. Companies electing not to participate will receive
service at the same level prevailing at outset of the program in May 1997, though
it is understood that by definition Electronic Recording is much faster than
conventional recording methods.
f. Participating in Electronic Recording will require meeting the necessities for
recording electronically as prescribed by the County.

Orange County Sanitation District
FROM: James D. Herberg, General Manager
Originator: Lorenzo Tyner, Director of Finance and Administrative Services
SUBJECT: REVENUE REFUNDING CERTIFICATE ANTICIPATION NOTES,
SERIES 2013A
GENERAL MANAGER'S RECOMMENDATION
A. Adopt Resolution No. OCSD 13-14, authorizing the execution and delivery by the
Orange County Sanitation District of an Installment Purchase Agreement, a Trust
Agreement and a Continuing Disclosure Agreement in connection with the
execution and delivery of Orange County Sanitation District Revenue Refunding
Certificate Anticipation Notes, Series 2013A, authorizing the execution and
delivery of such Notes evidencing principal in an aggregate amount of not to
exceed $135,000,000, approving a Notice of Intention to Sell, authorizing the
distribution of an Official Notice Inviting Bids and an Official Statement in
connection with the offering and sale of such Notes and authorizing the execution
of necessary documents and related actions; and
B. That the Orange County Sanitation District Financing Corporation approve the
documents, supporting and authorizing the Notes in an aggregate amount not to
exceed $135,000,000.
SUMMARY
In March 2006, the Sanitation District issued $200 million of variable rate Certificates of
Participation (COP), Series 2006 (2006 COPS). Altematively, the Sanitation District
could have issued debt at an estimated cost of 4.54% on a fixed rate basis in 2006.
From inception through August 2008, the average variable rate on the 2006 COPs was
2.95% or 0.22% less than the SIFMA index (weekly market index of tax-exempt variable
rate obligations). As the global financial crisis took hold in the late summer of 2008,
there was a significant increase in the variable rate borrowing cost of the Sanitation
District, including all municipal borrowers, as the 2006 COPS averaged 4.29% (or 1.56%
above the SIFMA index) for the period between September 2008 and December 2008.
The amount of the increase in variable rate cost above the SIFMA index can be
attributed to the weakened financial strength of the bank, DEPFA Bank plc that was
providing liquidity support on the 2006 COPs.
Page 1 of 5
In December 2008, the Sanitation District proactively refunded the 2006 COPS with the
Refunding COP Series 2008C Certificate Anticipation Notes (2008C CANS)to reduce its
exposure to then higher and more volatile variable rate costs. The yield on the 2008C
CANS was 0.98% for a one-year period. The issuance of the 2008C CANS allowed the
Sanitation District to redeem the 2006 COPs at an all-in cost of less than 1.25% and
avoid paying a bank rate of 4.75% which would have been effective starting a month
later. Since the 2008C CANs issuance, the Sanitation District completed four additional
one-year refinancings at yields of less than 0.37% as summarized below:
All-In Cost
2009E $ 165,865,000 0.370% 0.559%
20106 154,665,000 0.360 0.525
2011E 143,205,000 1 0.225 0.399
2012C 131,700,000 1 0.210 0.410
The interest rate on the Revenue Refunding Certificate Anticipation Notes Series 2012C
(2012C CANS) was fixed for only one year and the entire $131.7 million plus interest
becomes due and payable on October 30, 2013.
The purpose of the financing is to refund all of the $131.7 million Revenue Refunding
Certificate Anticipation Notes, Series 2012C to avoid the use of the Sanitation District's
cash reserves to make repayment. The financing is structured as new one-year fixed
rate maturity that will be sold in a competitive sale.
PRIOR COMMITTEE/BOARD ACTIONS
July 2013 — The Board authorized the General Manager to issue Revenue Refunding
Certificate Anticipation Notes, Series 2013A, as one-year fixed rate obligations, in an
amount not to exceed $135.0 million to replace the $131.7 million Revenue Refunding
Certificate Anticipation Notes, Series 2012C maturing on October 30, 2013.
September 2012 — The Board adopted Resolution No. OCSD 12-12, authorizing the
execution and delivery by the Sanitation District of an Installment Purchase Agreement,
a Trust Agreement and a Continuing Disclosure Agreement in connection with the
execution and delivery of Orange County Sanitation District Revenue Refunding
Certificate Anticipation Notes, Series 2012C, authorizing the execution and delivery of
such Notes evidencing principal in an aggregate amount of not to exceed $145,000,000,
approving a Notice of Intention to Sell, authorizing the distribution of an Official Notice
Inviting Bids and an Official Statement in connection with the offering and sale of such
Notes and authorizing the execution of necessary documents and related actions.

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
The Sanitation District currently has ten series of debt issuances outstanding in the par
amount of $1.245 billion. The following table lists each issuance, the outstanding

Venable Rate that were supported by a weak liquidity facility bank.
(5) New money debt issue
(6) Series 2008B refunded the Series 1993 Synthetic Variable-to-Fixed Rate Debt issue that
was supported by a failing insurance provider. The Series 1993 refunded the Series 1986
and a portion of the Series"B"COPs.
Due to the fact that this is a fixed-rate debt issuance, staff is proposing to issue the
refunding through a competitive sale because it is the most expeditious way to access
the market and it is expected to provide the lowest interest cost for this given structure.
All costs involved with the refunding, including costs for PRAG and Fulbright & Jaworski
LLP will be paid from the proceeds of the new refunding issue.
Legal Authorization and ADorovals
The Board of Directors and the Financing Corporation will each be required to adopt
separate Resolutions to complete this refunding. Drafts of these two Resolutions are
available for review on the Sanitation District's webpage, as described in the
"Attachments" section below. A Financing Corporation is required by the structure of
the Notes and was formed in April 2000 solely to satisfy this need. The Board of
Directors of the Corporation is the same as the Board of Directors of the Sanitation
District and the Corporation meets after an adjournment of the OCSD Board.
Page 3 of 5
The OCSD Resolution authorizes the execution and delivery of certain legal documents
and the execution and delivery of Revenue Refunding Certificate Anticipation Notes,
Series 2013A, evidencing principal in an aggregate amount of not to exceed
$135,000,000 all as spelled out in the title as follows:
"A RESOLUTION OF THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS OF THE ORANGE COUNTY
SANITATION DISTRICT AUTHORIZING THE EXECUTION AND DELIVERY BY THE

SELL, AUTHORIZING THE DISTRIBUTION OF AN OFFICIAL NOTICE INVITING BIDS
AND AN OFFICIAL STATEMENT IN CONNECTION WITH THE OFFERING AND
SALE OF SUCH NOTES AND AUTHORIZING THE EXECUTION OF OTHER
NECESSARY DOCUMENTS AND RELATED ACTIONS."
The Resolution of the Corporation is somewhat shorter and simpler. It authorizes three
actions that are similarly enumerated in the title as follows:
"A RESOLUTION OF THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS OF THE ORANGE COUNTY
SANITATION DISTRICT FINANCING CORPORATION AUTHORIZING THE
EXECUTION AND DELIVERY BY THE CORPORATION OF AN INSTALLMENT

and delivery of a Letter of Representations shall not in any way impose upon the Corporation,
the District or the Trustee any obligation whatsoever with respect to Persons having, interests in
such Book-Entry Notes other than the Owners, as shown on the registration books maintained by
the Trustee. Such Letter of Representations may provide the time, form, content and manner of
transmission, of notices to the Depository. In addition to the execution and delivery of a Letter
of Representations by the District, the District, the Corporation and the Trustee shall take such
other actions, not inconsistent with this Trust Agreement, as are reasonably necessary to qualify
Book-Entry Notes for the Depository's book-entry program.
(g) If the District determines that it is in the best interests of the Beneficial Owners
that they be able to obtain certificated Notes and that such Notes should therefore be made
available and notifies the Depository and the Trustee of such determination, the Depository will
notify the Participants of the availability through the Depository of certificated Notes. In such
event, the Trustee shall transfer and exchange certificated Notes as requested by the Depository
and any other Owners in appropriate amounts. If(i)the Depository determines not to continue to
act as securities depository for Book-Entry Notes, or (ii)the Depository shall no longer so act
and gives notice to the Trustee of such determination, then the District shall discontinue the
Book-Entry system with the Depository. If the District determines to replace the Depository
with another qualified securities depository, the District shall prepare or direct the preparation of
a new single, separate, fully registered Note for such Book-Entry Notes, registered in the name
of such successor or substitute qualified securities depository or its nominee. If the District fails
to identify another qualified securities depository to replace the Depository, then the Notes shall
no longer be restricted to being registered in the registration books maintained by the Trustee in
the name of the Nominee, but shall be registered in whatever name or names the Owners
transferring or exchanging such Notes shall designate, in accordance with the provisions of
Sections 2.06 and 2.09 hereof. Whenever the Depository requests the District to do so, the
District will cooperate with the Depository in taking appropriate action after reasonable notice
(i) to make available one or more separate certificates evidencing the Book-Entry Notes to any
Participant having Book-Entry Notes credited to its account with the Depository, and (ii)to
arrange for another securities depository to maintain custody of certificates evidencing the Book-
Entry Notes.
(h) Notwithstanding any other provision of this Trust Agreement to the contrary, if
DTC is the sole Owner of the Notes, so long as any Book-Entry Note is registered in the name of
the Nominee, all payments of principal and interest evidenced by such Note and all notices with
respect to such Note shall be made and given, respectively, as provided in the Letter of
Representations or as otherwise instructed by the Depository.

thereunder, adversely affect the exclusion pursuant to section 103(a) of interest on the Notes
from the gross income of the owners thereof for federal income tax purposes,the District will not

or the Notes are or will become"hedge bonds"within the meaning of section 149(g)of the Code.

proceeds of that issue would be expended for the governmental purposes thereof and (B) the
District believes and represents that at no time has more than 50% of the proceeds of that issue
been invested in Nonpurpose Investments having a substantially guaranteed yield for a period of
four years or more, and with respect to the application of Proceeds of the Notes other than for
refunding purposes, (ii)(A) the District will not deliver the Notes unless on the date of the
issuance of the Notes it reasonably expects that within the three-year period commencing on

cause to be executed and delivered all such other and further assurances, documents or

THE TRUSTEE
Section 8.01. Employment of the Trustee; Duties. The Corporation and the District
hereby appoint and employ the Trustee to receive, deposit and disburse the Installment Payment,
and the interest thereon, to prepare, execute, deliver and transfer the Notes and to perform the
other functions contained herein, all in the manner provided herein and subject to the conditions
and terms hereof. By executing and delivering this Trust Agreement, the Trustee accepts the
79141949.4 23
appointment and employment hereinabove referred to and accepts the rights and obligations of
the Trustee provided herein, subject to the conditions and terms hereof Other than when an
Event of Default hereunder has occurred and is continuing, the Trustee undertakes to perform
such duties and only such duties as are specifically set forth in this Trust Agreement, and no
implied covenants or obligations shall be read into this Trust Agreement against the Trustee. In
case an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the Trustee shall exercise such of the
rights and powers vested in it by this Trust Agreement, and use the same degree of care and skill
in their exercise, as a prudent person would exercise or use under the circumstances in the
conduct of such person's own affairs.
Section 8.02. Removal and Resignation of the Trustee. The Corporation and the
District may, by an instrument in writing, remove the Trustee initially a party hereto and any
successor thereto unless an Event of Default shall have occurred and then be continuing, and
shall remove the Trustee initially a party hereto and any successor thereto if at any time
(a)requested to do so by an instrument or concurrent instruments in writing signed by the
Owners of a majority of the aggregate principal evidenced by the Notes at the time Outstanding
(or their attorneys duly authorized in writing), or (b)the Trustee shall cease to be eligible in
accordance with the following paragraph, and shall appoint a successor Trustee. The Trustee
shall be a bank having trust powers or a trust company in good standing in or incorporated under
the laws of the United States or any state thereof, having (or if such bank or trust company is a
member of a bank holding company system, its parent bank holding company shall have) a
combined capital and surplus of at least $75,000,000, and be subject to supervision or
examination by federal or state banking authorities. If such bank or trust company publishes a
report of condition at least annually, pursuant to law or to the requirements of any supervising or
examining authority above referred to, then for the purposes of this Section the combined capital
and surplus of such bank or trust company shall be deemed to be its combined capital and
surplus as set forth in its most recent report of condition so published.
The Trustee may at any time resign by giving written notice of such resignation to the
Corporation and the District and by giving notice, by first class mail, postage prepaid, of such
resignation to the Owners at their addresses appearing on the registration books maintained by
the Trustee. Upon receiving such notice of resignation, the Corporation and the District shall
promptly appoint a successor Trustee by an instrument in writing; provided, however, that in the
event the District and the Corporation do not appoint a successor Trustee within 30 days
following receipt of such notice of resignation, the resigning Trustee may, at the expense of the
District, petition the appropriate court having jurisdiction to appoint a successor Trustee. Any
resignation or removal of a Trustee and appointment of a successor Trustee shall become
effective only upon acceptance of appointment by the successor Trustee. Any successor Trustee
appointed under this Trust Agreement shall signify its acceptance of such appointment by
executing and delivering to the District and the Corporation and to its predecessor Trustee a
written acceptance thereof, and thereupon such successor Trustee, without any further act, deed
or conveyance, shall become vested with all the moneys, estates, properties, rights, powers,
trusts, duties and obligations of such predecessor Trustee, with like effect as if originally named
Trustee herein; but,nevertheless, at the written request of the District or of the successor Trustee,
such predecessor Trustee shall execute and deliver any and all instruments of conveyance or
further assurance and do such other things as may reasonably be required for more fully and
certainly vesting in and confirming to such successor Trustee all the right, title and interest of
79141949.4 24
such predecessor Trustee in and to any property held by it under this Trust Agreement and shall
pay over, transfer, assign and deliver to the successor Trustee any money or other property
subject to the trusts and conditions herein set forth.
Any corporation, association or agency into which the Trustee may be converted or
merged, or with which it may be consolidated, or to which it may sell or transfer its corporate
trust business and assets as a whole or substantially as a whole, or any corporation or association
resulting from any such conversion, sale, merger, consolidation or transfer to which it is a party,
provided that such entity meets the combined capital and surplus requirements of this Section,
ipso facto, shall be and become successor trustee under this Trust Agreement and vested with all
the trusts, powers, discretions, immunities, privileges and all other matters as was its
predecessor, without the execution or filing of any instrument or any further act, deed or
conveyance on the part of any of the parties hereto, anything herein to the contrary
notwithstanding.

from time to time, subject to any written agreement then in effect with the Trustee, pay the
Trustee reasonable compensation for all its services rendered hereunder and reimburse the
Trustee for all its reasonable advances and expenditures (which shall not include "overhead
expenses" except as such expenses are included as a component of the Trustee's stated annual
fees or disclosed transaction fees) hereunder, including but not limited to advances to and
reasonable fees and reasonable expenses of accountants, agents, appraisers, consultants or other
experts, and counsel not directly employed by the Trustee but an attorney or firm of attorneys
retained by the Trustee, employed by it in the exercise and performance of its rights and
obligations hereunder; provided, however, that the Trustee shall not have any lien for such
compensation or reimbursement against any moneys held by it in any of the funds or accounts
established hereunder. The Trustee may take whatever legal actions are lawfully available to it
directly against the Corporation or the District.
Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, no provision of this Trust Agreement
shall require the Trustee to expend or risk its own funds or otherwise incur any financial liability
in the performance of any of its duties hereunder or in the exercise of any of its rights or powers
hereunder.
The District, to the extent permitted by law, agrees to indemnify and save the Trustee, its
directors, officers, employees and agents harmless against any liabilities which it may incur in
the exercise and performance of its powers and duties hereunder, including but not limited to
costs and expenses incurred in defending against any claim or liability, which are not due to its
negligence or willful misconduct.
Section 8.04. Protection of the Trustee. The Trustee shall be protected and shall incur
no liability in acting or proceeding in good faith upon any affidavit, bond, certificate, consent,
notice, request, requisition, resolution, statement, waiver or other paper or document which it
shall in good faith believe to be genuine and to have been adopted, executed or delivered by the
proper party or pursuant to any of the provisions hereof, and the Trustee shall be under no duty
to make any investigation or inquiry as to any statements contained or matters referred to in any
such instrument, but may accept and rely upon the same as conclusive evidence of the truth and
79141949.4 25
accuracy of such statements. The Trustee shall be under no obligation to exercise any of the
rights or powers vested in it by this Trust Agreement at the request or direction of any of the
Owners of the Notes pursuant to this Trust Agreement, unless such Owners shall have offered to
the Trustee security or indemnity, reasonably satisfactory to the Trustee, against the reasonable
costs, expenses and liabilities which might be incurred by it in compliance with such request or
direction. The Trustee may consult with counsel, who may be counsel to the Corporation or the
District, with regard to legal questions, and the opinion of such counsel shall be full and
complete authorization and protection in respect to any action taken or suffered by it hereunder
in good faith in accordance therewith.
The Trustee shall not be responsible for the sufficiency of the Notes or the Installment
Purchase Agreement, or of the assignment made to it hereunder, or for statements made in the
preliminary or final official statement relating to the Notes.
The Trustee shall not be required to take notice or be deemed to have notice of any
default or Event of Default hereunder, except failure of any of the payments to be made to the
Trustee required to be made hereunder or under the Installment purchase Agreement, unless the
Trustee shall be specifically notified in writing of such default or Event of Default by the
District, the Corporation or the Owners of not less than 5% of the aggregate principal evidenced
by the Notes then Outstanding.
Whenever in the administration of its rights and obligations hereunder the Trustee shall
deem it necessary or desirable that a matter be proved or established prior to taking or suffering
any action hereunder, such matter(unless other evidence in respect thereof be herein specifically
prescribed) may be deemed to be conclusively proved and established by a Written Certificate of
the District or a Written Certificate of the Corporation, and such certificate shall be full warrant
to the Trustee for any action taken or suffered under the provisions hereof upon the faith thereof,
but in its discretion the Trustee may, in lieu thereof, accept other evidence of such matter or may
require such additional evidence as it deems reasonable.
The Trustee may buy, sell, own, hold and deal in any of the Notes and may join in any
action which any Owner may be entitled to take with like effect as if the Trustee were not a party
hereto. The Trustee, either as principal or agent, may also engage in or be interested in any
financial or other transaction with the Corporation or the District, and may act as agent,
depository or trustee for any committee or body of Owners or of owners of obligations of the
Corporation or the District as freely as if it were not the Trustee hereunder.
The Trustee may, to the extent reasonably necessary, execute any of the trusts or powers
hereof and perform any rights and obligations required of it hereunder by or through agents,
attorneys or receivers, and shall be entitled to advice of counsel concerning all matters of trust
and its rights and obligations hereunder, and the Trustee shall not be answerable for the
negligence or misconduct of any such agent, attorney or receiver selected by it with reasonable
cue; provided, however, that in the event of any negligence or misconduct of any such attorney,
agent or receiver, the Trustee shall diligently pursue all remedies of the Trustee against such
agent, attorney or receiver. The Trustee shall not be liable for any error of judgment made by it
in good faith unless it shall be proved that the Trustee was negligent in ascertaining the pertinent
facts.
79141949.4 26
The Trustee shall not be answerable for the exercise of any trusts or powers hereunder or
for anything whatsoever in connection with the funds established hereunder, except only for its
own willful misconduct, negligence or breach of an obligation hereunder.
The Trustee may, on behalf of the Owners, intervene in any judicial proceeding to which
the Corporation or the District is a party and which, in the opinion of the Trustee and its counsel,
affects the Notes or the security therefor, and shall do so if requested in writing by the Owners of
at least 5% of the aggregate principal evidenced by Notes then Outstanding,provided the Trustee
shall have no duty to take such action unless it has been indemnified to its reasonable satisfaction
against all risk or liability arising from such action.

SECURITY AND SOURCES OF PAYMENT FOR THE NOTES
Sale Proceeds of Future Obligations
The District expects the principal of and interest on the Notes to be paid from proceeds of the
sale, on the Maturity Date, of a future series of certificates of participation, notes or other obligations of
the District,that will amortize over a term of approximately 23 years(the"Future Obligations").
The issuance of the Future Obligations will require future authorizations by the governing boards
of the District and the Corporation, as well as the preparation of suitable legal and disclosure documents
for the issue. The District is currently unaware of any material impediment to obtaining such
authorizations and documents. In addition, the issuance and sale of the Future Obligations will be
contingent on the District's ability to access the municipal capital markets, which will depend on the
District's creditworthiness and market conditions during the weeks immediately preceding the Maturity
Date. The District is unable to predict such matters with certainty and therefore cannot guarantee that the
Future Obligations will be successfully issued and sold.
Installment Payment
The Notes evidence direct, fractional undivided interests in the Installment Payment, and the
interest thereon, paid by the District pursuant to the Installment Purchase Agreement. The obligation of
the District to pay the Installment Payment and the interest thereon and other payments required to be
made by it under the Installment Purchase Agreement is a special obligation of the District payable,in the
manner provided under the Installment Purchase Agreement, from Net Revenues and other lawfully
52906807.6 5
available funds of the District, as provided in the Installment Purchase Agreement. Net Revenues
generally consist of all income and revenue received by the District from the operation or ownership of
the Wastewater System remaining after payment of Maintenance and Operation Costs, all as further
provided in the Master Agreement. See"DISTRICT REVENUES"herein.
Pursuant to the Master Agreement, the District has established and declared the conditions and
terms upon which obligations such as the Installment Purchase Agreement, and the Installment Payment
and the interest thereon payable under the Installment Purchase Agreement, will be incurred and secured
The obligation of the District to make the Installment Payment, and payments of interest thereon, and
other payments required to be made by it under the Installment Purchase Agreement, from Net Revenues,
and other lawfully available funds of the District,is absolute and unconditional,and until such time as the
Installment Payment, payments of interest thereon, and such other payments shall have been paid in full
(or provision for the payment thereof shall have been made pursuant to the Installment Purchase
Agreement), the District has covenanted that it will not discontinue or suspend any Installment Payment
when due, whether or not the Project or any part thereof is operating or operable or has been completed,
or its use is suspended, interfered with, reduced or curtailed or terminated in whole or in part, and such
Installment Payment, payments of interest thereon, and other payments shall not be subject to reduction
whether offset or otherwise and shall not be conditional upon the performance or nonperformance by any
party of any agreement or any cause whatsoever. The District's obligation to make the Installment
Payment from Net Revenues is on a parity with the District's obligation to make payments with respect to
its Outstanding Senior Obligations. See "Net Revenues" below. Pursuant to the Trust Agreement, the
Corporation has assigned to the Trustee for the benefit of the Owners of the Notes substantially all of its
rights, title and interest in and to the Installment Purchase Agreement, including its right to receive the
Installment Payment and the interest thereon.
The District has certain Existing Senior Obligations Outstanding payable from Net Revenues on a
parity with the Installment Payment under the Installment Purchase Agreement. The tern "Existing
Senior Obligations" as used in this Official Statement refers to the Installment Purchase Agreements
relating to the District's Outstanding Senior Obligations, as set forth on Table 16 under the caption
"FINANCIAL OBLIGATIONS—Existing Indebtedness"herein. The term"Senior Obligations"mused
in this Official Statement refers to the Existing Senior Obligations and to any additional Senior
Obligations, such as the Installment Purchase Agreement, that may be made payable on a parity basis to
the Installment Payment as provided in the Master Agreement. Senior Obligations, together with any
Subordinate Obligations payable on a subordinate basis to the Installment Payments incurred as provided
in the Master Agreement, are referred to collectively as the "Obligations." The District has no
Subordinate Obligations currently outstanding. See "FINANCIAL OBLIGATIONS — Existing
Indebtedness" herein and APPENDIX C "SUMMARY OF PRINCIPAL LEGAL DOCUMENTS
Master Agreement"attached hereto.
The obligation of the District to pay the Installment Payment, and the interest thereon, and other
payments required to be made by it under the Installment Purchase Agreement and Master Agreement, is
a special obligation of the District payable, in the manner provided in the Installment Purchase
Agreement, from Net Revenues and other lawfully available £ands of the District, as provided for in the
Installment Purchase Agreement, and does not constitute a debt of the District, the State or of any
political subdivision thereof, in contravention of any constitutional or statutory debt limitation or
restriction. Neither the faith and credit nor the taxing power of the District, the State or any political
subdivision thereof, is pledged to the payment of the Installment Payment or the interest thereon,or other
payments required to be made under the Installment Purchase Agreement. The Installment Purchase
Agreement constitutes a Senior Obligation and, as such, is subject to the provisions of the Master
Agreement and is afforded all of the advantages, benefits, interests and security afforded Senior
52906807.6 6
Obligations pursuant to the Master Agreement. See"SECURITY AND SOURCES OF PAYMENT FOR
THE NOTES"herein.
Available Funds of the District
As Senior Obligations under the Master Agreement, the Installment Payments are payable from
and secured by a pledge of Net Revenues. Should Net Revenues prove insufficient, the Installment
Purchase Agreement further provides that the Installment Payments are payable from any other lawfully
available funds of the District. The primary lawfully available funds of the District are its reserve funds,
other than trustee-held amounts required to be in any Obligation Reserve Fund securing certain of the
District's Senior Obligations, as described in the Master Agreement. At June 30, 2013, the District's
Debt Service Required Reserves totaled$135 million, of which $45.2 million were trustee-held amounts
in Obligation Reserve Funds as required under the Master Agreement. See APPENDIX C—"SUMMARY
OF PRINCIPAL LEGAL DOCUMENTS — Master Agreement" attached hereto. District reserve funds
are maintained in accordance with the District's reserve policy. See "DISTRICT REVENUES —
Reserves." Available reserves at June 30, 2012 and June 30, 2013 were approximately$608 million and
$646 million (unaudited), respectively. See "DISTRICT REVENUES — Reserves," "— Summary of

The District is obligated to make the Installment Payment from, among other things, Net
Revenues as provided in the Master Agreement, which consist of Revenues remaining after payment of
costs paid by the District for maintaining and operating the Wastewater System ("Maintenance and
Operation Costs"). Revenues are defined in the Master Agreement to mean, for any period, all income
and revenue received by the District during such period from the operation or ownership of the
Wastewater System, determined in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, including
all fees and charges received during such period for the services of the Wastewater System, investment
income received during such period (but only to the extent that such investment income is generally
available to pay costs with respect to the Wastewater System, including Maintenance and Operation
Costs), Net Proceeds of business interruption insurance received during such period, ad valorem taxes
received during such period, payments under the Agreement Acquiring Ownership Interests, Assigning
Rights and Establishing Obligations, entered into on February 13, 1986, and amendment No. I thereto
dated December 10, 1986 (the "IRWD Agreement"), by and between predecessor County Sanitation
District No. 14 of Orange County and the Irvine Ranch Water District(the"IRWD")received during such
period and all other money received during such period howsoever derived by the District from the
operation or ownership of the Wastewater System or arising from the Wastewater System(including any
standby or availability charges), but excluding (a)Capital Facilities Capacity Charges, (b)payments
received under Financial Contracts, and (c)refundable deposits made to establish credit and advances or
contributions in aid of construction (which, for purposes of the Master Agreement, shall not include
payments under the IRWD Agreement); provided, however, that (i)Revenues shall be increased by the
amounts, if any, transferred during such period from the Rate Stabilization Account to the Revenue
Account and shall be decreased by the amounts, if any, transferred during such period from the Revenue
Account to the Rate Stabilization Account, and (ii)Revenues shall include Capital Facilities Capacity
Charges collected during such period to the extent that such Capital Facilities Capacity Charges could be
properly expended on a Capital Facilities Capacity Charge Eligible Project for which the proceeds of
Senior Obligations were used or are available to be used. Any Federal Subsidy payments received by the
District will constitute Revenues as defined in the Master Agreement. See "DISTRICT REVENUES—
Additional Revenues"herein.
52906807.6 7
The District's obligation to make the Installment Payment from its Net Revenues is on a parity
with the District's obligation to make payments with respect to its other outstanding obligations described
as Senior Obligations and all Reimbursement Obligations with respect to Senior Obligations,as provided
in the Master Agreement. The Installment Purchase Agreement constitutes a Senior Obligation and, as
such, is subject to the provisions of the Master Agreement and is afforded all of the advantages, benefits,
interests and security afforded Senior Obligations pursuant to the Master Agreement. Pursuant to the
Master Agreement, the District pledges all Net Revenues to the payment of the Senior Obligations and
Reimbursement Obligations with respect to Senior Obligations, and the Net Revenues will not be used for
any other purpose while any of the Senior Obligations or Reimbursement Obligations with respect to
Senior Obligations remain unpaid; provided, however, that out of the Net Revenues there may be
apportioned such sums for such purposes as are expressly permitted by the Master Agreement. This
pledge constitutes a first lien on the Net Revenues for the payment of the Senior Obligations and
Reimbursement Obligations with respect to Senior Obligations. The term"Senior Obligations,"generally
means all revenue bonds or notes(including bond anticipation notes and commercial paper)of the District
authorized, issued,executed and delivered under and pursuant to applicable law,the Installment Purchase
Agreement, and all other contracts (including financial contracts) or leases of the District authorized and
executed by the District under and pursuant to applicable law, including, without limitation, installment,
lease or other payments which are, in accordance with the provisions of the Master Agreement, payable
from Net Revenues on a parity with the payments under the Master Agreement.
The District may at any time incur Subordinate Obligations payable on a subordinate basis to the
Installment Payment as provided in the Master Agreement; provided, however, that prior to incurring
such Subordinate Obligations, the District shall have determined that the incurrence thereof will not
materially adversely affect the District's ability to comply with the requirements of the Master
Agreement. The District may at any time incur Reimbursement Obligations with respect to Subordinate
Obligations. For a description of the District's Outstanding Senior Obligations and Subordinate
Obligations, see "FINANCIAL OBLIGATIONS Existing Indebtedness" herein. There are currently
no Subordinate Obligations or Reimbursement Obligations with respect to Subordinate Obligations
outstanding.
The District may, in connection with the incurrence of Subordinate Obligations, pledge Net
Revenues to the payment of Subordinate Obligations and Reimbursement Obligations with respect to
Subordinate Obligations; provided, however, that such pledge, and any lien created thereby, shall be
junior and subordinate to the pledge of, and lien on,Net Revenues for the payment of Senior Obligations
and Reimbursement Obligations with respect to Senior Obligations.
Rate Stabilization Account
To avoid fluctuations in its fees and charges of the Wastewater System, from time to time the
District may deposit in the Rate Stabilization Account from Net Revenues such amounts as the District
deems necessary or appropriate. From time to time, the District may also transfer moneys from the Rate
Stabilization Account to the Revenue Account to be used by the District, first to pay all Maintenance and
Operations Costs as and when the same shall be due and payable. In addition, any such amount
transferred from the Rate Stabilization Account to the Revenue Account by the District is included as
Revenues for any period,but such transferred amount is excluded from determining Operating Revenues
for any period. Revenues will be decreased by the amounts,if any,transferred from the Revenue Account
to the Rate Stabilization Account. There are presently no funds in the Rate Stabilization Account.
52906807.6 8
Allocation of Revenues
To carry out and effectuate the pledge of Net Revenues under the Master Agreement as described
above, the District agrees and covenants that all Operating Revenues received by the District will be
deposited when and as received in the Revenue Account. Additionally, amounts may, from time to time
as the District deems necessary or appropriate, be transferred from the Rate Stabilization Account and
deposited in the Revenue Account,as described above under" Rate Stabilization Account'above. The
District will pay from the Revenue Account all Maintenance and Operations Costs (including amounts
reasonably required to be set aside in contingency reserves for Maintenance and Operations Costs, the
payment of which is not immediately required)as and when the same shall be due and payable.
After having paid, or having made provisions for the payment of, Maintenance and Operations
Costs, the District shall set aside and deposit or transfer, as the case may be, from the Revenue Account
such amounts at such times as provided in the Master Agreement in the following order of priority:
(1) Senior Obligation Payment Account;
(2) Senior Obligation Reserve Funds(the Notes are not secured by any Reserve Fund);
(3) Subordinate Obligation Payment Account;
(4) Subordinate Obligation Reserve Funds;and
(5) Rate Stabilization Account.
Amounts required or permitted to be deposited or transferred as described in items 2, 3, 4 and 5
above, shall not be so deposited or transferred unless the District shall have determined that there will be
sufficient Net Revenues available to make the required deposits or transfers on the dates on which such
deposits or transfers are required to be made as described above. So long as the District has determined
that Net Revenues will be sufficient to make all of the deposits or transfers required to be made pursuant
to items 1, 2, 3, 4 and 5 above, on the dates on which such deposits or transfers are required to be made,
Net Revenues on deposit in the Revenue Account may from time to time be used for any purpose for
which the District fonds may be legally applied. For additional information, see APPENDIX C —
"SUMMARY OF PRINCIPAL LEGAL DOCUMENTS Master Agreement"
Rate Covenant
Pursuant to the Master Agreement, the District will, to the extent permitted by law, fix, prescribe
and collect fees and charges for the services of the Wastewater System which will be at least sufficient to
yield during each Fiscal Year(a)Net Revenues equal to 125% of Debt Service on Senior Obligations for
such Fiscal Year and (b)Net Operating Revenues equal to 100% of Debt Service on all Obligations for
such Fiscal Year. The District may make adjustments from time to time in such fees and charges and may
make such classification thereof as it deems necessary, but will not reduce the fees and charges then in
effect unless the Revenues and Net Revenues from such reduced fees and charges will at all times be
sufficient to meet the requirements of the Master Agreement.
In addition, the District has covenanted in the Master Agreement to prepare and adopt an annual
budget for the Wastewater System for each Fiscal Year. Such budget will set forth in reasonable detail
the Revenues anticipated to be derived in such Fiscal Year and the expenditures anticipated to be paid or
provided for therefrom in such Fiscal Year, including, without limitation, the amounts required to pay or
provide for the payment of the Obligations during such Fiscal Year, the amounts required to pay or
52906807.6 9
provide for the payment of Maintenance and Operations Costs during such Fiscal Year and the amounts
required to pay or provide for the payment of all other claims or obligations required to be paid from
Revenues in such Fiscal You,and will show that Revenues and Net Revenues will be at least sufficient to
satisfy the requirements of the Master Agreement. On or before September 1 of each Fiscal Year, the
District will file with the Trustee a copy of the adopted budget for such Fiscal Year. See APPENDIX C
"SUMMARY OF PRINCIPAL LEGAL DOCUMENTS Master Agreement" for additional
information.
The District has an established reserve policy with eight separate reserve fund categories. Over
the next ten years,the year ending reserve total for each year is projected not to fall below$500 million as
indicated in the District's ten-year cash flow forecast for fiscal years 2013-14 through 2022-23. At its
election, the District may use unrestricted reserves to help satisfy the rate covenant described above. See
"DISTRICT REVENUES Reserves"herein.

THE DISTRICT
Background
The Orange County Sanitation District is a public agency responsible for regional wastewater
collection, treatment and disposal. The District is the sixth largest wastewater discharger in the United
States. The District provides service to an area with a population of approximately 2.5 million people in
the northern and central portion of the County by treating an average of 200 mg/d of wastewater in Fiscal
Year 2012-13. The District serves approximately 81% of the County population in approximately 479
square miles,or approximately 60%of the County's area.
The service area which comprises the District was originally formed in 1954 pursuant to the
County Sanitation District Act, as amended, Section 4700 et seq. of the Health and Safety Code of the
State. The District's service area originally consisted of seven independent special districts in the County
which were each responsible for matters relating to their individual districts. These special districts were
jointly responsible for the treatment and disposal facilities which they each used. The seven independent
districts were successors to the Joint Outfall Sewer Organization, which was formed in 1923 among the
Cities of Anaheim, Santa Ana,Fullerton, and Orange, and the sanitary districts of Placentia, Buena Park,
La Habra, and Garden Grove. The Joint Outfall Sewer Organization constructed a treatment plant and
outfall in the early 1920s to serve its members. It was reorganized in 1947 and 1948 into seven county
sanitation districts — District Nos. 1, 2, 3, 5, 6, 7 and 11. These prior districts were formed based on
engineers' analyses of the gravity flows in the service area. District No. 13 was formed in 1985 and
District No. 14 was added in 1986. These districts were co-participants in a Joint Agreement which
provided for the joint construction,ownership,and operation of the prior districts'joint facilities.
In April 1998, at the request of the Board of Directors of the District (the"Board of Directors'),
the Board of Supervisors of the County of Orange (the "County Board") passed Resolution No. 98-140
approving the consolidation of the then existing nine special districts into a new, single sanitation district,
to be known as the Orange County Sanitation District. This action was designed to simplify governance
stmctmes, reduce the size of the Board of Directors, ease administrative processes, streamline decision-
making and consolidate accounting and auditing processes. The consolidation was effective on July 1,
1998.
Pursuant to the Resolution and Government Code Section 57500, the prior districts transferred
and assigned all of their powers, rights, duties, obligations, functions and properties to the District, and
the District assumed all obligations of the prior districts which were several and not joint including,
without limitation, their obligations to repay the then outstanding certificates of participation. The
boundaries of the nine predecessor special districts were initially used by the District to delineate separate
revenue areas (the"Revenue Areas") for budgeting and accounting purposes and in order to facilitate the
imposition of fees and charges imposed by the District. See "DISTRICT REVENUES — Sewer Service
Charges"herein.
The District is managed by the Board of Directors, whose members are appointed by 25 member
cities and agencies which are serviced by the District. The District is responsible for construction and
maintenance of a major portion of the wastewater collection, treatment and disposal facilities within its
boundaries. Revenue Area No. 7 is responsible for approximately 170 miles of local sewers in its service
area, whereas local sanitary districts, water districts and cities are responsible for local sewers in the
remainder of the District's service area.
52906807.6 14
Organization and Administration
The District is independent of and overlaps other political jurisdictions. There are many
governmental entities,including the County, that operate within the District's jurisdiction. These entities
are exclusively responsible for the administration of their own fiscal affairs,and the District is not entitled
to operating surpluses of,or responsible for operating deficits of,any of the other entities.
The 25-member Board of Directors is composed of representatives from 21 cities,unincorporated
areas of the County and three special districts, including mayors of cities, members of city councils,
directors of independent special districts and one member from the County Board. Several board
committees, made up of members of the Board of Directors, consider topics for action by the Board of
Directors and make recommendations to the Board of Directors. The Chair and the Vice Chair of the
Board of Directors are elected every year by a majority of the Board of Directors, and serve at the
pleasure of the majority of the Board of Directors.
The District has a general manager, outside general counsel, and administrative and operating
staff, with offices located at Reclamation Plant No. 1 in Fountain Valley, California. The District
currently employs an administrative and operating staff of approximately 600 under the direction of its
General Manager,James Heiberg.

Services
The District owns and operates regional wastewater collection, treatment, and disposal facilities
for the metropolitan area in the northern and central portion of the County. The District receives
wastewater from the collection systems of the cities, sanitary districts and unincorporated areas of the
County located within the District. See"THE THE DISTRICT—Service Areas"herein.
Generally, local agency systems collect wastewater from residential and industrial customers and
convey the wastewater to District trunk sewer pipelines for conveyance to the District's wastewater
treatment plants.
The District's staff is responsible for operating and maintaining the District's infrastructure,
although some work is performed by external contractors.
Currently, the District has established supply contracts for all chemicals necessary to the
operation and maintenance of the facilities of the District. The District has sufficient standby systems in
the event of equipment failures or system outages.
Service Area
The map on the inside cover of this Official Statement shows the District's boundaries and
selected cities located within the District. District boundaries were originally established in 1947 and
1948 based on drainage basins. As the existing cities have grown and new areas have incorporated, city
limits have come to overlap District boundaries. The District currently serves an approximately 479
square-mile area including 23 of the County's 33 cities and various unincorporated areas of the County.
The District serves a population of approximately 2.5 million residents.

Employees
As of July 25, 2013, the District had a total of 597 employees. The majority of District
employees are represented by recognized employee organizations, which include the following: the
Orange County Employees Association("OCEA"),representing administrative/clerical,technical services
and engineering employees since 1979, the International Union of Operating Engineers — Local 501
("Local 501"), representing operations and maintenance employees since October 1985, and the Peace
Officers Counsel of California representing employees within the Supervisor Group and Professional
Group since 1991. The total number of represented employees is 545, and is broken down as follows:
101 employees represented by OCEA, 200 employees represented by Local 501, and 244 employees
represented by the Supervisor Group and Professional Group. The contractual agreements between
52906807.6 17
District and the Supervisor Group and Professional Group were renegotiated in 2010 and expired on June
30, 2013. The District is continuing to bargain with the Supervisor Group and Professional Group to
reach agreement. The contractual agreements between OCEA and District and the Local 501 and District
were renegotiated in 2011 and will expire on June 30, 2014. Historically, the District has experienced
positive and collaborative working relationships with each organization and has not endured any work
stoppages since the early 1980s.
Retirement Plan
The District participates in the Orange County Employees Retirement System ("OCERS'), a
cost-sharing multiple-employer defined benefit pension plan, which is governed and administered by a
nine-member Board of Retirement. OCERS was established in 1945 under the provisions of the County
Employees Retirement Law of 1937,and provides members with retirement,death,disability,and cost of-
living benefits.
All full-time and part-time District employees participate in OCERS. Contributions are based on
an OCERS actuarial-determined rate structure and age at time of employment; contributions are deducted
on a pre-tax basis. Most employees do not pay into Social Security with the exception of 1.45% of gross
income, which is paid into the Medicare portion of Social Security. The amount of the retirement
allowance is based upon the member's age at retirement,the member's"final compensation"as defined in
Section 31462 of the Retirement Law of 1937, the total years of service under OCERS, and the
employee's classification as a Plan B, G, H, or U member. Plan U applies to all full-time and part-time
employees hired on or after January 1, 2013. Plan B applies to supervisor and professional employees
hired on or after October 1, 2010, Local 501 employees hired on or after July 1, 2011 and OCEA
employees hired on or after August 1, 2011. Plan G applies to employees hired before September 21,
1979. Plan H applies to employees hired on or after September 21, 1979 and prior to the eligibility dates
for Plan B or Plan U. Plan G and H provide 2.5% of final compensation per year of service at age 55.
Plan B provides 1.667%of final compensation per year of service at age 57.5, and Plan U provides 2%at
62. "Final compensation"is the highest consecutive 12 months of compensation for Plan G members and
the highest consecutive 36 months of compensation divided by three for Plan B, H, and U members.
Benefits fully vest under the OCERS retirement plan upon reaching five years of service. Employees
who retire at or after age 50 with ten or more years of service are eligible to receive an annual retirement
allowance, but at a reduced benefit for those employees retiring prior to age 62 for Plan U members, 57.5
for Plan B members, or prior to age 55 for Plan G and H members. OCERS also provides death and
disability benefits.
As a condition of participation under the provisions of the County Employees Retirement Law of
1937, members are required to contribute a percentage of their annual compensation to OCERS. The
District contributes a percentage of covered employees' base salary towards the employee's contribution
to OCERS for members of Plans G and H. Members of Plans U and B do not receive any contributions
toward employee's contribution to OCERS.

For Fiscal Yews 2007-08 through 2012-13, the District's required contribution was equal to the
contribution that the District actually made. As noted, the required contribution set forth above includes
amortization of Unfunded Actuarial Accrued Liability ("UAAL"). For the Fiscal Year ended June 30,
2013, total payroll costs of employees covered by OCERS was $59,966,096. As of the December 31,
2012 valuation, OCERS has an aggregate UAAL ratio of 62.52%, for a total UAAL on an actuarial basis
of$5.68 billion.
The District's retirement program includes Additional Retiree Benefit Account ("ARBA')
benefits. ARBA benefits provide a monthly payment to retirees towards the premium costs of health
insurance for the retiree and eligible dependents. The retiree is not required to use this amount for health
insurance premium or to remain on the OCERS medical plan. Benefits vest upon retirement after
qualifying public service of ten years. The District pays 100%of the cost for the ARBA plan and utilizes
a pay-as-you-go method for funding the plan. The District paid$421,650 in ARBA benefits during Fiscal
Year 2012-13. Effective August 1, 2011, ARBA benefits are no longer available to new OCEA Group
employees of the District.
For more information regarding OCERS and the District's retirement plan as of June 30, 2012,
see Note 6 to the Comprehensive Annual Financial Report of the Orange County Sanitation District for
Fiscal Year Ended June 30,2012 set forth in Appendix A. The Comprehensive Annual Financial Reports
of the Orange County Employees Retirement System me available on the OCERS website at
http://www.ocem.org. The information on such website is not incorporated herein by such reference or
otherwise. The District cannot predict whether the OCERS investment portfolio will experience
additional losses in the future; however, any future losses could result in material increases in the
District's required contributions.
52906807.6 19
Other Post-Employment Benefits
In June 2004, Governmental Accounting Standards Board ("GASB") issued Statement No. 45,
which requires state and local governmental employers to fund the actuarially determined annual required
contribution("ARC")for its post-employment benefits other than pension benefits (known as other post-
employment benefits or"OPEB") or record the entire amount of the unfunded liability of its OPEB in its
financial statements. OPEB includes healthcare and life insurance expenses and related liabilities, and an
annual required contribution to fund such liabilities. The District adopted Statement No. 45 for the fiscal
year beginning July 1, 2007, as required of a GASB "Phase 1 Agency." According to the District's
actuary, Demsey Filliger Associates (the "Actuary"), the unfunded OPEB liability as of July 1, 2011 is
approximately$10.7 million. The ARC is $900,035 for Fiscal Year 2012-13. Calculation of the ARC is
based on the present value of benefits accruing in the current year,a 30-year amortization of the unfunded
OPEB liability and an assumed rate of return on investments in the retiree fund of 5% per annum. The
District does not believe that its OPEB liability will have a material impact on its operational results.
Risk Management
As of the date hereof, the District has in force basic all risk property and casualty insurance,
including theft, fire, flood,terrorism and boiler and machinery losses at its plants and pump stations. The
District is self-insured for portions of workers' compensation,property damage and general liability. The
self-insurance portion of workers' compensation is $750,000 per person per occurrence with outside
excess insurance coverage to the statutory limit. The self-insured portion for property damage covering
fire and other disasters is $250,000 per occurrence with outside excess insurance coverage to $1 billion.
The self-insured portion for property damage covering flood is $100,000 per occurrence with outside
excess insurance coverage to $300 million. The District is self-insured for all property damage from the
perils of earthquakes. See "DISTRICT REVENUES — Reserves." The District also maintains outside
comprehensive boiler and machinery insurance, including business interruption insurance, with a $100
million limit with deductibles ranging from$25,000 to $350,000. The District is self-insured for general
liability coverage up to $250,000 per occurrence (except that employment practice liability is $500,000),
with excess general liability coverage up to$30 million.
During the past five fiscal yews there have been no settlements in excess of covered amounts.
Claims against the District are processed by outside claim administrators. The District believes that there
are no unrecorded claims as of June 30, 2013 that would materially affect the financial position of the
District.
For more information regarding the District's insurance coverage as of June 30,2012, see Note 1
to the Comprehensive Annual Financial Report of the Orange County Sanitation District for Fiscal Year
Ended June 30,2012 set forth in Appendix A.
Existing Facilities
The District's Wastewater System presently consists of two wastewater treatment plants, an
influent metering and diversion structure, 15 off-plant pump stations, various interplant pipelines and
connections, and the ocean outfall facilities. The District's Wastewater System includes approximately
403 miles of sewers within 11 trunk sewer systems, 170 miles of local sewers located within a portion of
Revenue Area No. 7, two treatment plants, two discharge outfalls and two emergency weir outlets. The
existing treatment plants have a rated primary treatment capacity of 372 mg/d,including standby capacity.
Treatment Plant No. I ("Plant No. I") is located in the City of Fountain Valley, about four miles
from the coast, adjacent to the Santa Ana River. Secondary treatment capabilities we provided by a
52906807.6 20
trickling filter plant and two conventional air activated sludge plants. Up to 105 mg/d of secondary
treated effluent is conveyed to an Orange County Water District (the "OCWD') plant for tertiary
treatment prior to reclamation and groundwater recharge. See "Groundwater Replenishment System"
below.
Treatment Plant No. 2 ("Plant No.2")is located in the City of Huntington Beach, 1,500 feet from
the ocean, at the mouth of the Santa Ana River. Secondary treatment capabilities are provided by a Pure
Oxygen Activated Sludge plant and a Solids Contact Trickling Filter plant.
The District employs several phases in the treatment of wastewater. The first phase, preliminary
treatment,removes debris such as eggshells, sand and other non-biodegradable items. See also"Preferred
Level of Treatment" and "Biosolids Management" below. In the next phase, primary treatment,
wastewater is pumped to large settling basins. The liquids are separated from the remaining solids which
settle or float as the wastewater passes through large settling basins called clarifiers. The settled solids
are sent to solids treatment facilities. All of the wastewater received by the District is sent to secondary
treatment for further processing. During secondary treatment, the wastewater is treated with naturally
occurring bacteria to remove most of the remaining dissolved and suspended microscopic organic solids.
The treated wastewater from both plants is mixed together at Plant No.2,where it is then pumped through
the ocean outfall pipe that extends five miles offshore.
Set forth in Table 4 below we the treatment plants' approximate treatment capacities.

The District also has the capability to divert a portion of the influent flow from Plant No. 1 to
Plant No. 2 through interplant connections. A portion of the flow destined for Plant No. 2 can also be
diverted to Plant No. 1. Another interplant facility allows gas generated during solids treatment to be
transported between Plant No. 1 and Plant No. 2 and allows digester gas (which is used as fuel for many
of the facilities' engines) from one plant to be used at the other to balance the supply and demand, which
results in efficient gas utilization.
Permits,Licenses and Other Regulations
The District is subject to laws, rules and permits issued by federal, state, regional and local
regulatory bodies. The Wastewater System is subject to regulations imposed by the 1972 Clean Water
Act, Public Law 92-500 (the"Clean Water Act"), the California Environmental Quality Act of 1970, as
amended ("CEQA") and the Federal Clean Air Act. The regulatory requirements are primarily
administered by the United States Environmental Protection Agency (the "EPA"), the California Air
Resources Board, the Santa Ana Regional Water Quality Control Board ("RWQCB"), and the South
Coast Air Quality Management District ("AQMD"). Regulations of these agencies deal primarily with
the quality of effluent which may be discharged from the treatment plants and air quality emissions. The
52906807.6 21
Clean Water Act directs the EPA to monitor and to regulate the discharge of pollution into navigable
waterways and to enforce the requirements that all wastewater treatment plants in the nation provide full
secondary treatment for sewage. In 1977, Congress amended the Clean Water Act to allow waivers of
secondary treatment standards for certain ocean dischargers if they can demonstrate,to the satisfaction of
the EPA that significant adverse environmental impacts would not occur. The District currently has all
applicable permits and licenses necessary to operate its facilities.
The District has discharged treated wastewater into the Pacific Ocean under a permit issued by
the EPA and the RWQCB. The discharge permit included a waiver under the 301(h) provisions of the
Clean Water Act, allowing for less than full secondary treatment based on an ocean discharge of
sufficient depth, distance and dilution. The permit was initially issued in 1985 and was the first modified
Section 301(h)permit issued to a major wastewater treatment facility. The permit was re-issued on May
6, 1998 and expired on June 8,2003.
On July 17,2002,the Board of Directors adopted Resolution No. OCSD 02-14, "Establishing the
Policy for Level of Treatment of Wastewater Discharged into the Ocean." This resolution established the
District's policy to treat all wastewater discharges into the ocean to secondary treatment standards thereby
providing for continued public safety, marine ecosystem protection, and water reclamation opportunities.
To implement this policy, District staff was directed to immediately proceed with the planning, design,
and implementation of treatment methods that will allow the District to meet Clean Water Act secondary
treatment standards with the expressed purposes of eliminating the need for the permit waiver received
under Section 301(h). The District completed these improvements by December 2012 at a total capital
improvement cost of$537.8 million.
Following the determination by the Board of Directors on July 2002 to implement full secondary
standards, staff prepared the Secondary Treatment National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System
("NPDES") Permit Application that was required to be submitted to the regional office of the EPA and
the RWQCB in December 2002. The NPDES Permit is separate and apart from the permit waiver
received under Section 301(h), and once awarded would negate the need for a waiver. Achieving
secondary treatment standards was originally projected to take nine years to complete, with completion
expected in December 2012. Because ocean discharge permits are issued for only five years, and the
EPA has no authority to waive the discharge limit requirements or grant a longer permit (except in
accordance with Section 301(h)), the District decided to voluntarily seek a consent decree concurrently
with the issuance of the new ocean discharge permit.
This negotiated consent decree(the"Consent Decree") approves the schedule and decrees that no
penalties will be imposed for discharges that exceed the secondary treatment limits during the period of
construction. The Consent Decree was signed by the District, the EPA and the RWQCB and filed with
the U.S. District Court on November 15, 2004. The Consent Decree contains the following seven
milestones:
• completion of a new$44.4 million Trickling Filter Facility at Plant No. 1;
• completion of the design and advertising for construction of the New Activated Sludge
System at Plant No. 1;
• completion of the design and advertising for construction of Trickling Filters at Plant No.2;
• completion of construction for the rehabilitation of Activated Sludge Plant at Plant No. 2;
• completion of construction of Plant No.2's secondary treatment expansion;
52906807.6 22
• completion of construction of Plant No. 1's secondary treatment expansion; and
• achieve full compliance with the Code of Federal Regulations secondary treatment
requirements.
The District is in compliance with the Consent Decree and has successfully completed all of the seven
milestones within the specified deadlines required by the Consent Decree. The District completed the
final milestone on December 29,2012.
The District is also subject to the requirements of the Federal Clean Air Act which mandates
attainment with national ambient air quality standards for criteria pollutants (ozone, particulate matter,
carbon monoxide,lead,nitrogen dioxide,and sulfur dioxide). Criteria air pollutants cause adverse effects
on human health and environment. AQMD is the local air pollution control agency charged with
implementing the Federal Clean Air Act. In addition to criteria pollutants, AQMD also implements
numerous federal and state requirements related to the toxic air pollutants which can cause cancer or other
severe localized health effects. The State's Air Toxic Hot Spots Act, for example, requires facilities to
conduct health risk assessments and notify the neighboring communities if the health risk exceeds the
regulatory thresholds.
Pursuant to AQMD's requirements, the District must obtain permits before sewage treatment
improvement projects can he constructed and operated. Such permits are project specific and may contain
conditions that govern design criteria, operating parameters, and emissions standards. Most of the
District's treatment facilities are enclosed in order to capture and treat emissions to meet regulatory
emissions standards and to minimize odor impact to the neighboring communities. The District's
treatment plants are also subject to the requirements of Title V of the Federal Clean Air Act amendments.
The Title V permit is a single air quality permit for a facility that consolidates and replaces all of the air
permits for individual pieces of equipment previously issued by the local air quality district. The permit
contains all of the applicable local, state, and federal requirements, including periodic self-certification of
compliance and mandatory self-reporting of permit deviation.
All Title V permit related reporting and documents submitted to the AQMD must be signed by
the highest District official — in this case the General Manager. The Title V program also demands
facilities to organize and conduct extensive training of the staff involved,including the field operation and
maintenance staff. Another Title V important feature is a possibility of the public active participation and
intervention in the cases of potential emission limits and monitoring violations. The District Title V
permits did not receive any negative public responses or comments during the required public review
period. The District received initial Title V permits for both treatment plants in January 2009. These Title
V permits are issued for a five-year period. In anticipation of permit expiration in January 2014, the
District recently submitted application packages for renewal of its Title V permits.
2009 Facilities Master Plan and Capital Improvement Program
The District's 2009 Facilities Master Plan(the "Master Plan")was completed and adopted by the
Board of Directors in December 2009 and has been updated from time to time. The Master Plan updated
the planning processes set forth in the 1989 Master Plan, the 1999 Strategic Plan, and the 2002 Interim
Strategic Plan Update. The Master Plan also incorporates and implements the levels of services defined
by the District's Board of Directors that are included in the District's 2009 Five-Year Strategic Plan. The
result is a plan that integrates research, facilities planning, water conservation and reclamation, sludge
reuse, other wastewater programs and financial planning into a single unified approach. A key
component of the Master Plan was the updating of flow projections and the collection system hydraulic
52906807.6 23
modeling. A capital improvement program was developed to implement the required sewer capacity and
rehabilitation improvements through the year 2030.
The District also annually reviews and validates its current Capital Improvement Program
("CIP"). The District expects to meet future demands on the Wastewater System through the CIP. This
program has been developed to satisfy anticipated regulatory requirements, increased population,
anticipated rehabilitations and replacements, additional treatment requirements, conservation, energy and
other resource savings considerations, odor control improvements, and air quality protection needs.
Through Fiscal Year 2030-31,the District's current CIP is scheduled to accomplish:
• Major rehabilitation of the existing headworks, primary treatment, secondary treatment,
outfall pumping, and solids handling facilities at both treatment plants;
• Replace and rehabilitate nine of the District's outlying pumping stations, and 26 trunk
sewer improvement projects;and
• Reduce fence line odor to levels that do not generate odor complaints.
The 2013 CIP Validation Study resulted in revisions to the CIP. The CIP currently consists of
137 individual capital projects through Fiscal Year 2030-31 with remaining outlays of$1.8 billion. Over
the next five years, the CIP contemplates average annual capital expenditures of$164 million based on
the 2013 CIP Validation Study. Implementation of full secondary treatment standards was completed in
December 2012. Set forth in Table 5 below is a summary of total estimated capital costs for the CIP for
Fiscal Years 2012-13 through 2030-31. [update]

The CIP included budgeted expenditures of$141.6 million in Fiscal Year 2013-14. There we
currently 38 projects in the construction phase with proposed capital outlay spending in 2013-14. The two
most significant projects in the construction phase are the Sludge Thickening Dewatering and Odor
Control at Plant No. 1 and the Solids Thickening and Processing Upgrades at Plant No. 2 with projected
current year expenditures of$27.3 million and$12.9 million,respectively.
52906807.6 24
Groundwater Replenishment System
The District has taken a multi jurisdictional approach to planning for capital facilities because
many of the methods for reducing or managing flows involve other jurisdictions. One such project is the
Groundwater Replenishment System ("GWRS"). In Much 2001,the District entered into an agreement
with the OCWD to design and construct Phase 1 of the GWRS. The capital cost of this Phase was shared
equally (50% shares) by each agency. The GWRS is a joint effort by the two agencies to provide
reclaimed water for replenishment of the Orange County Groundwater Basin and to augment the seawater
intrusion barrier. Phase I of the GWRS became operational in January of 2008 with an expected water
production of 72,000 acre-feet per year once all secondary treatment facilities are online. In 2011,GWRS
produced approximately 68,000 acre-feet. The Phase II expansion started construction in November 2011
to add approximately 33,000 acre-feet per year. The District expects the Phase II expansion to be
completed in the fall of 2014. The Phase II expansion and all future phases will be funded solely by
OCWD. The District has committed 168,000 acre-feet per year of secondary effluent to these future
expanded operations. The District and OCWD amended their 2001 agreement in 2010 to provide OCWD
with the first right of refusal of secondary treated water flows from the District's Fountain Valley-based
Plant No. I for these future phases; however, no capital funding is anticipated or dedicated from the
District for these future expansion phases.
OCWD and the District have agreed to share equally in the cost of the Joint GWRS
Microfiltration Backwash Redirection Project which will increase the quantity of water available during
the early morning hours when the flows are low. This project will save the District operational costs in
the form of reduced primary treatment chemical usage.
Preferred Level of Treatment
In July 2002, the Board of Directors approved a change from the existing level of treatment, a
blend of 50% advanced primary and 50% secondary treated wastewater, to full secondary treatment
standards. The District completed all of the necessary expansion projects to support full secondary
treatment by December 2012. See "THE DISTRICT — Permits, Licenses and Other Regulations." On
July 20, 2012, the District received a new NPDES permit, that reflects the full secondary treatment
requirements.
Biosolids Management
The District recovers and treats nutrient-rich, organic matter to produce biosolids through the
treatment of wastewater. Biosolids can be recycled through composting or fertilizing farm fields (non-
food)(land application)or disposed in a landfill for methane gas recovery.
By 2014,the District's biosolids tonnage is anticipated to peak at approximately 784 tons per day
("tpd")when new secondary treatment processes we fully operational, and then is projected to decline to
approximately 520 tpd by 2017 when the IRWD's solids processing facilities and the District's biosolids
centrifuges commence operations. The District's biosolids averaged of 753 tpd in Fiscal Year 2012-13,
with an average cost per ton of$62.55 for managing at offsite locations, as described in the table below.
The Fiscal Year 2013-14 budget for biosolids management is $17.94 million.
In 2003, the District was the fast agency in the nation to be certified by the National Biosolids
Partnership for its biosolids program. Certification requires regular third-party audits and a robust internal
management system based on the ISO 14001 Environmental Management System standard. Pursuant to
its policy(updated in February 2013)under the program, the District is committed to a diverse biosolids
52906807.6 25
program to help ensure a sustainable, reliable, and economical program. The District has a diversified
biosolids management portfolio,as set forth in the table below:

Recycling
The District's contractors provide back-up biosolids management options in Arizona that include
compost, land application recycling, and landfill disposal. Together, these options have the additional
available capacity to manage more than eight times the District's daily biosolids production to ensure
sustainable, consistent,and reliable operations.
The District anticipates issuing a request for proposals ("RFP') in 2016 in advance of the
Synagro contract renewal. In fall 2013, District staff will recommend the Board of Directors adopt a
biosolids Strategic Initiative for the District's Fiscal Year 2014-15 Strategic Plan. The Strategic Initiative
would review potential biosolids management options in order to make recommendations for the RFP.
The District's goal is to ensure the RFP aligns with existing market conditions and continues a
sustainable,reliable,and economical biosolids management program that provides environmentally sound
practices and meets the stringent federal, state,and local regulatory requirements.
In fall 2012, the District signed an agreement with Orange County Waste & Recycling to use
their landfill in San Juan Capistrano. The District awarded a one-year hauling contract for the landfill
loads(up to 100 tpd)in July 2013 that contains 4 one-year renewals.
Urban Runoff
Recognizing that County beaches were being affected by pollution carried by urban runoff, the
Board of Directors adopted a number of resolutions agreeing to accept dry weather urban runoff into the
sewer system. In June 2002, Assembly Bill 1892 amended the District's charter to formally allow the
diversion and management of dry weather urban runoff flows. Resolution No. 01-07, adopted March 28,
2001,declared that the District will initially waive fees and charges associated with authorized discharges
of dry weather urban runoff to the sewer system until the total volume of all runoff discharges exceeds
four million gallons per day ("MGD") calculated on a monthly average. For the first 12 years of the
Urban Runoff Program,the average monthly flow averages remained less than the 4 MGD threshold thus
avoiding user fee costs being assessed to the diversion permittees. In 2012, OCSD received a number of
diversion proposals to deal with bacteria and selenium loading to the upper Newport Bay. The discharge
from the additional proposed diversions combined with the existing diversion flows would eventually
exceed the four MGD fee threshold. On June 12, 2013, the Board adopted Resolution No. 13-09
52906807.6 26
expanding the waiver of fees or charges on the treatment of dry weather urban runoff from four MGD to
ten MGD. According to the Board, the change was necessary not only to protect the County's coastal
resources, but also to provide an economic benefit to the local economy by helping to keep our beaches
open.
There are currently 19 active urban runoff diversion structures, four owned and operated by the
County, 11 owned and operated by the City of Huntington Beach, one owned and operated by the City of
Newport Beach, two owned and operated by the IRWD, and one owned and operated by The Irvine
Company. The Dry Weather Urban Runoff Program is administered by the Environmental Compliance
Division which issues a discharge permit for each of the diversion structures. The permit functions as a
control mechanism that specifically prohibits storm runoff and authorizes discharge only during periods
of dry weather. The permit also establishes specific discharge limits, constituent monitoring, and flow
metering requirements. In addition, the District conducts quarterly sampling and analysis of the urban
runoff discharges to ensure discharge limit compliance for the various regulated constituents.
Since 1999, the District has treated a total of 7.0 billion gallons of dry-weather urban runoff that
would otherwise have been discharged into the ocean with no treatment. From January 1, 2012 through
December 31, 2012, the daily average urban runoff flow ranged between 0.003 and 2.69 MGD with a
cumulative total diversion of 558 million gallons for this period. At the existing operations and
maintenance cost of$1,440.42 per million gallons(2011-12 rate),the District's cost for treating the urban
runoff discharge for this period is estimated at$803,753.
Integrated Emergency Response Program
In recognition of the potential damage which could occur in the event of a major earthquake,
flood, or other disaster, the District implemented an Integrated Emergency Response Program (the
"IERP") in 1979. The IERP is a two-volume plan which contains policies, plans and procedures
preparing for, and responding to, emergencies. The District also analyzed disaster preparedness issues
and policies within the Master Plan, and within a 1994 document titled Fault Rupture Hazard
Investigation—Wastewater Treatment Plant No. 2.
The disaster preparedness plan included in the Master Plan reviewed two possible major
earthquake scenarios: an 8.3 Richter magnitude ("M") earthquake on the southern San Andreas fault
system and an M 7.0 earthquake on the Newport-Inglewood fault zone, which includes Plant No. 2. An
M 8.3 earthquake on the southern San Andreas fault,while on the whole more destructive than the M 7.0
Newport-Inglewood fault, may result in less damage to the District's service area due to the distance of
the fault from most of the service area. However,the Master Plan stated that damage from such a major
earthquake on the San Andreas fault would be extensive. Also, the Master Plan indicated that an M 7.0
earthquake on the Newport-Inglewood fault within five miles of the District's sewerage facilities could
cause major destruction to those facilities. The disaster preparedness plan in the Master Plan indicated
that it would not be economically feasible to upgrade all of the existing sanitary sewerage facilities to
survive an earthquake of this magnitude along the Newport-Inglewood fault. The IERP outlines the
policies and employee actions to be taken before, during and after an earthquake, earthquake response
guidelines and damage assessment procedures.
The Master Plan analyzed the vulnerability of the sanitary sewerage facilities and operations of
the District and planned a risk reduction program wherein the vulnerability of many of the District's
sanitary sewerage facilities to an earthquake could be reduced by recommended retrofit construction
measures. The Master Plan also recommended that designs of existing major structures which were
constructed prior to development of current seismic design standards be reviewed and the structures
strengthened,if necessary.
52906807.6 27
Since the Master Plan and the 1994 Report, the District has completed retrofitting where deemed
appropriate. Pursuant to the Master Plan, all recent and future projects have been, and will be, designed
to the same high earthquake code standards as set for other essential services, such as hospitals and fire
stations. Many of the older buildings analyzed in the Master Plan have been replaced by structures built
after 1989.
The Army Corps of Engineers' "All-River Plan" has mitigated any future flooding of the Santa
Ana River system and potential threats to the District's Wastewater System. Also, both Plant No. 1 and
Plant No.2 are built to federal standards.
The disaster preparedness plan in the Strategic Plan investigates the damage potential posed by
coastal flooding, tsunamis (large ocean waves generated by seismic activity) and windstorms. No
assurance can be given that any such events would not have a material adverse impact on the Wastewater
System.
The Strategic Plan also makes recommendations regarding fire protection of the Wastewater
System. Most of the structures at Plant No. 1 and Plant No. 2 are constructed of fire-resistant materials.
The IERP describes the procedures needed to respond to a possible disaster. For more information
regarding emergency response policies,the disaster preparedness plan described in the Strategic Plan and
the IERP can be reviewed at the District's office.
Five-Year Strategic Planning
In November 2007, the Board of Directors adopted a new comprehensive strategic plan to steer
the District's efforts and engage the organization to envision service levels and operational needs for the
next five years. The Strategic Plan has been updated annually to continue looking at a five-year horizon
(each, a "Five-Year Plan"). Since 2007, approximately 79% percent of the strategic goals have been
completed. Following a similar process used in prior years, the General Manager's Office initiated the
planning effort with the Executive Management Team, then solicited input and ideas from managers and
supervisors. In October 2012, the staff-generated ideas were presented at a workshop with the Board of
Directors where the Board Members discussed and deliberated changes and additions to the plan. Driven
by the District's Mission, Vision and Core Values, the 2012 Strategic Plan Update continues an
aggressive effort by the District to meet the sanitation, health, and safety needs of the approximately 2.5
million people served while protecting the environment where we all live. As a result of the discussion at
the October 2012,four new goals were added to the Strategic Plan,as follows:
• Ensure a reliable and sustainable chemical supply using multiple vendor contracts to
reduce the risk of supply disruption while benefiting from competitive pricing.
• Develop a Business Continuity Plan that will define how the District will continue
everyday business functions after an event that interrupts normal operations for an extended period of
time.
• Assess and revise the District's biosolids policy to reflect recent, developments,
experiences, and circumstances concerning biosolids management. See "THE DISTRICT — Biosolids
Management"herein.
• Assess the performance of current odor control systems, validate the appropriate Levels
of Service ("LOS"), align future odor improvements with asset management objectives, and update the
Capital Improvement Plan for odor control to meet the LOS goals.
52906807.6 28
This Strategic Plan continues to chart a focused roadmap of success for the future of the District.
It addresses critical operations and construction issues, financial and budgeting challenges, and gives a
clear and concise direction to staff,ratepayers,regulatory agencies,and the general public.
DISTRICT REVENUES
Sewer Service Charges
General. The District has the power to establish fees and charges for services of the Wastewater
System. Such fees and charges are established by the District's Board of Directors and are not subject to
review or approval by any other agencies.
In Fiscal Year 1997-98, a Rate Advisory Committee (the "RAC") was established comprised of
representatives from industrial, commercial and residential users. The goal of the RAC was to examine
the then current rate structure and, if needed, develop recommendations for change. The RAC analyzed
the District's rate structure to determine whether its then current sewer service user fees (now known as
"Sewer Service Charges") were equitable among residential and industrial customers. This review
resulted in a proposal to expand the number of non-residential user categories from one to 23 and to
provide for gradual rate increases in seven of the nine Revenue Areas. The Sewer Service Charges for
those categories were based on the average flow and strength of wastewater discharged for each property
type and remain currently in use.
The Board of Directors establishes the annual sanitary sewer service charges by ordinance. The
sanitary sewer service charge ordinances are adopted by a two-thirds vote of the Board of Directors as
required under law after conducting a noticed public hearing in compliance with Proposition 218. See
"LIMITATIONS ON TAXES AND REVENUES — Article XIIIC and Article XIIID of the California
Constitution." In May 2002, the Board of Directors adopted District Ordinance No. OCSD 18 (the"2002
Ordinance") which became effective on July 1, 2002. The 2002 Ordinance included a single family
residential ("SFR") rate increase, the underlying basis for all sanitary sewer service charges including
sanitary sewer rates for multi-family residential units as well as most commercial and industrial
properties, of $7.50 per year, or 9.4%, to $87.50 per year. In June 2003, the Board of Directors
authorized a Proposition 218 notice on proposed"not to exceed"rate increases for each year over the next
five years.
The District collects Sewer Service Charges from property owners through the semi-annual
property tax bill distributed by the County throughout the District, except in Revenue Area No. 14.
Pursuant to the IRWD Agreement, the District receives quarterly fee payments from the IRWD which
directly collects fees from customers through a monthly billing procedure in Revenue Area No. 14.
The District currently participates in the County's Teeter Plan under which the District receives
annually I00% of the secured property tax levies to which it otherwise is entitled, regardless of whether
the County has actually collected the levies.
The District has covenanted in the Master Agreement to fix, prescribe and collect fees and
charges to satisfy certain coverage requirements as further described under "SECURITY AND
SOURCES OF PAYMENT FOR THE NOTES—Rate Covenant"herein.
Residential and Commercial Sewer Service Charges. Pursuant to the 2002 Ordinance, the
District established residential Sewer Service Charges, except within Revenue Area No. 14, based on the
cost of services and facilities provided to each customer of the District. The noticed public hearing held
in connection with the 2002 Ordinance considered increases in the amount of the annual charges of
52906807.6 29
approximately 20% per year for each of the then following five years. In May 2005, the Board of
Directors adopted Ordinance No. OCSD-26 increasing the Fiscal Year 2005-06 single family residential
rate, the underlying basis for all sewer service charges, by 31%, from $115.00 to $151.00 for all
ratepayers, except those located in Revenue Area No. 14. In June 2007, the Board of Directors adopted
Ordinance No. OCSD-32 increasing the Fiscal Year 2007-08 single family residential rate by 9.8%.
On February 27, 2008, the Board of Directors approved increases in its sanitary sewer service
charges for all single family and multi-family residential units, and for all commercial properties. The
Board of Directors increased the single family residential rate, which is the basis for all of the District's
sewer service charges, by 10.4% for Fiscal Year 2008-09, 10.0% for Fiscal Year 2009-10, 10.4% for
Fiscal Year 2010-11, 9.4% for Fiscal Year 2011-12 and 10.1% for Fiscal Year 2012-13. On March 27,
2013, the Board of Directors adopted Ordinance No. OCSD-41 approving increases in its sanitary sewer
service charges for all single family residences, multi-family residential units, and all non-residential
properties. The Board increased the single Family residential rate, which is the basis for all of the
District's sewer service charges, by 4.8% for Fiscal Year 2013-14 and thereafter by an average annual
increase of 2.40/6 for each Fiscal Year through Fiscal Year 2017-18.
Set forth in Table 6 below is a comparison of the Sewer Service Charge rate for single family
residences for the fiscal years shown.

residences ("SFR") within the District, together with comparable total average annual charges for
wastewater service within the jurisdictions of certain other cities and districts within the State as of the
dates indicated. The District's projected SFR rate of$308 in Fiscal Year 2013-14 remains below the
average annual sewer rate of $406 according to a Fiscal Year 2007-08 survey of 726 agencies
encompassing all 58 counties in California conducted by the State Water Resources Control Board.

Industrial Sewer Service Charges. The District charges industrial Sewer Service Charges to
customers discharging high-strength or high-volume wastes into the sewer systems. Customers subject to
industrial Sewer Service Charges are billed directly by the District. The fee charged to each customer is
based on the customer's sewage volume, the concentration of suspended solids and biochemical oxygen
demand. Pursuant to the 2002 Ordinance, rates for each component factor were revised for certain
industrial users in order to be consistent with the rates charged to residential users. Total industrial Sewer
Service Charges in Fiscal Year 2012-13 were approximately $11 million. Industrial Sewer Service
Charges are applied to both operating and capital funds.
The Sewer Service Charge increases described above are necessary to meet the District's cash
flow needs arising from the addition of disinfection treatment and other operating requirements. As
discussed under the caption "THE DISTRICT — 2009 Facilities Master Plan and Capital Improvement
Program," the 2013 CIP Validation Study developed the capital improvement program to ensure
secondary treatment standards are met as quickly as possible while providing for increased flows and
rehabilitation and refurbishment of existing facilities. As projected through Fiscal Year 2030-31,the cash
flow needs of the CIP total approximately $1.8 billion. Over the next five years the CIP contemplates
average annual capital expenditures of$164 million. In addition, the CIP contemplates $212 million, or
an annual average of$42 million, to finance projects currently unknown or unidentified as forecasted by
the District's Asset Management Program(the"Asset Management Program").
52906807.6 31
Additional Revenues
The District has several sources of additional revenue, including property taxes, Capital Facilities
Capacity Charges,capacity rights,permit and inspection fees and interest earnings.
Property Taxes. The District receives approximately 2.5%of the one percent County ad valorem
property tax levy, based on the allocation procedure under State law. Property tax revenues were $65.2
million in Fiscal Year 2007-08, $66.4 million in Fiscal Year 2008-09, $64.8 million in Fiscal Year 2009-
10, $64.3 million in Fiscal Year 2010-11, $67.9 million in Fiscal Year 2011-12 and $79.2 million
(unaudited) in Fiscal Year 2012-13. Because of one-time redevelopment dissolution property tax
proceeds received in Fiscal Year 2012-13, the District currently projects that its property tax receipts will
decrease by approximately 6.9% in Fiscal Year 2013-14, but increase by approximately 5.0% each year
thereafter through Fiscal Year 2017-18. The apportionment of the ad valorem tax is made pursuant to a
revenue program adopted by the District in April 1979 to comply with EPA and RWQCB mandates, legal
and contractual requirements and Board of Director's policy.
Capital Facilities Capacity Charges. Capital Facilities Capacity Charges (commonly referred to
as connection fees) are one-time fees with two components, paid at the time property is developed and
connected to the Wastewater System. The fees are imposed by the District pursuant to Section 5471 of
the California Health and Safety Code and are levied to pay a portion of the District's capital costs and for
access to capacity in the Wastewater System. The District currently has Capital Facilities Capacity
Charges of $3,341 per residential unit (three-bedroom); however, under the current industrial use
ordinance, additional Capital Facilities Capacity Charges can be imposed on industrial users who place
larger than average demand on the Wastewater System. Member cities and sanitary districts collect
Capital Facilities Capacity Charges for the District when building permits are issued. Capital Facilities
Capacity Charges are reviewed annually to reflect the changes in the value of the Wastewater System to
which a new customer is connecting.
On December 15, 1999, the Board of Directors approved District Ordinance No. OCSD 99-11
(the"1999 Ordinance")which established a comprehensive Capital Facilities Capacity Charge. The 1999
Ordinance, effective as of January 1, 2000, renamed connection fees as Capital Facilities Capacity
Charges and provided a more equitable schedule of fees among industrial, commercial and residential
users. Pursuant to the 1999 Ordinance,Capital Facilities Capacity Charges were revised for high demand
industrial users in five incremental increases from 1999 through 2001. For a summary of historical and
projected revenues derived from Capital Facilities Capacity Charges, see Table 14 and Table 15 below.
Pursuant to an agreement with the IRWD, the IRWD is not required to pay Capital Facilities
Capacity Charges and, in exchange, the IRWD provides funding to the District for the construction costs
of certain wastewater collection, transmission, treatment and disposal facilities to be used by the IRWD
and is obligated to make certain payments to the District for certain services arising from the Wastewater
System(including any standby or availability charges).
Sale of Capacity. The District has entered into agreements with the Santa Ana Watershed Project
Authority ("SAWPA") whereby wastewater from Upper Santa Ana River Basin dischargers can be
transported through the District's Santa Ana River Interceptor to the District's wastewater treatment
facilities. This program was developed in the early 1970s. The agreements establish control mechanisms
regarding the quality of wastes deposited into the Wastewater System. At the present time, SAWPA has
purchased and paid for 30 mg/d of maximum regulated flow capacity rights in the District's Santa Ana
River Interceptor and 17 mg/d of monthly average flow capacity in the District's wastewater treatment
plants. Projected revenues from SAWPA range from$4.5 million to$5.3 million over the next five years.
52906807.6 32
Additional treatment plant capacity can be purchased in increments at the District's current replacement
cost.
Federal Subsidy Payments. In connection with the District's Revenue Obligations,Series 2010A
(the "2010A Certificates") and the District's Revenue Obligations, Series 2010C (the "2010C
Certificates"), issued as `Build America Bonds," the District expected to receive certain federal subsidy
payments of approximately $5.1 million annually through 2031 and lesser amounts thereafter until 2044.
Subsidy payments with respect to the 2010A Certificates and the 2010C Certificates constitute Revenues
as defined in the Master Agreement. In its financial reports, the District accounts for subsidy payments
received in connection with the 2010A Certificates and the 2010C Certificates as a reduction in interest
expense with respect to such obligations.
For the 2010A Certificates and the 2010C Certificates to be and remain Build America Bonds,the
District must comply with certain covenants and establish certain facts and expectations with respect to
the 2010A Certificates and the 2010C Certificates , the use and investment of proceeds thereof and the
use of property financed thereby. Thus,it is possible that the District may not receive the federal subsidy
payments. The federal subsidy payments are also subject to offset against amounts that may, for
unrelated reasons,be owed by the District to any agency of the United States of America.
On March 1, 2013, the federal government announced the implementation of certain automatic
spending cuts (mown as the sequester. As a result of the sequester, federal subsidy payments for the
2010A Certificates were reduced by 8.7% (or $67,874) and federal subsidy payments for the 2010C
Certificates were reduced by 8.7% (or $152,807) for the federal fiscal year ending September 30, 2013.
The District is obligated to make all payments with respect to the 2010A Certificates and the 2010C
Certificates, however, from Revenues as defined in the Master Agreement, regardless of whether it
receives the full amount of the federal subsidy payments. The District cannot predict any fixture
reductions in federal subsidy payments due to the sequester. However, the District does not believe that
any reduction in federal subsidy payments will have a material adverse effect on the District's ability to
pay the 2010A Certificates or the 2010C Certificates.
Wastewater Treatment History
The wastewater flows for Fiscal Year 2008-09 through Fiscal Year 2012-13 were 211 mg/d, 196
mg/d, 207 mg/d, 201 mg/d and 200 mg/d,respectively. The highest flow rate experienced was during El
Nino storm periods. Peak flows of 500 mg/d were recorded in December 1997 and February 1998. There
were no sewer failures or overflows during these events.
Customers
The historical number of customers served by the District for the Fiscal Years 2008-09 through
2012-13 and the projected number of customers served by the District for the Fiscal Years 2013-14
through 2017-18, identified in Equivalent Dwelling Units ("EDUs"), are set forth in Table 8 and Table 9
below. As discussed below, sewer service charges are based on the expected meant of wastewater flow
for a single family dwelling. This base amount is considered the "equivalent dwelling unit" Set forth in
Table 8 below are the EDUs that equate to total Sewer Service Charge levies,while the EDUs set forth in
Table 9 equate to total sewer service charge collections.

Assessed Valuation
The assessed valuation of property in the County is established by the County Assessor, except
for public utility property which is assessed by the State Board of Equalization. Due to changes in
assessment required under State Constitution Article XflIA, the County assessment roll no longer
purports to be proportional to market value. See "LIMITATIONS ON TAXES AND REVENUES"
herein. Generally,property can be reappraised upward to market value only upon a change in ownership
or completion of new construction. The assessed value of property that has not incurred a change of
ownership or new construction most be adjusted annually to reflect inflation at a rate not to exceed 2%
per year based on the State consumer price index. In the event of declining property value caused by
substantial damage, destruction, economic or other factors, the assessed value must be reduced
temporarily to reflect market value. For the definition of full cash value and more information on
property tax limitations and adjustments,see"LIMITATIONS ON TAXES AND REVENUES"herein.
The County Assessor determines and enrolls a value for each parcel of taxable real property in the
County every year. The value review may result in a reduction in value. Taxpayers in the County also
may appeal the determination of the County Assessor with respect to the assessed value of their property.

Tax Levies and Delinquencies
Property taxes are based on assessed valuation which is determined as described under
"DISTRICT REVENUES—Assessed Valuation"herein. In accordance with the California Revenue and
Taxation Code, the County tax collector collects secured tax levies for each Fiscal Year. Property taxes
on the secured roll are due in two installments, on November 1 and February 1. The District currently
participates in the County's Teeter Plan under which the District receives annually 100% of the secured
property tax levies and Sewer Service Charges to which it otherwise is entitled,regardless of whether the
County has actually collected the levies. This alternative method provides for funding each taxing entity
included in the Teeter Plan with its total secured property taxes during the year the taxes are levied,
including any amount uncollected at fiscal year-end. Under this plan, the District's general fund receives
the full amount of secured property taxes levied each year on its behalf and, for so long as such plan
remains in effect, the participating entities, such as the District, no longer experience delinquent taxes.
The County's general fund is the designated recipient of future collections of penalties and interest on all
delinquent taxes collected on behalf of participants in this alternative method of apportionment. In recent
years, the County has experienced delinquencies of Sewer Service Charges in the District of
approximately 2.0%.

Budgetary Process
The District's operating fund budget relies on revenues from Sewer Service Charges and property
taxes,both of which are collected on the property tax bill, as previously described under the captions"—
Sewer Service Charges" and " Additional Revenues." The District receives tax revenues from the
County in eight allocations, with the largest receipts in December and April. The District operates on a
Fiscal Year beginning each July 1. The operating fund budgets include funds to cover the dry period of
each tax year, i.e.,the period from the beginning of the Fiscal Year until the first taxes are received. The
dry-period requirement is budgeted at one-half of the annual operating fund budgeted expenditures. The
District uses the accrual method of accounting in its budgets. The District has conformed to its budgets
for the last five fiscal years and is conforming to its budget for the current fiscal yen.
The District's annual budget preparation process begins in January of each yen and concludes in
Jane upon its adoption. The General Manager reviews the final operating budgets and then distributes
them to the Directors and District Committees for consideration. The Board of Directors then adopts the
proposed annual budgets,with any revisions,in June of each year.
Budgetary control is exercised at the individual Department level and administrative policies
provide guidelines on budget transfers and the authorization necessary to implement transfers. A budget
adjustment is a transfer which does not change the total appropriated amount and does not require Board
of Directors action. Approval may be granted by the General Manager or the Department Head in certain
circumstances. Department Heads have the discretion to reapportion funds between certain line items
within a division but may not exceed total appropriated amounts for each department. They may also
transfer staff across divisional lines. The General Manager and Board of Directors must approve
additional capital outlay items.
A budget amendment is an adjustment to the total appropriated meant which was not included in
the original budget. These supplemental appropriations require formal action by the Board of Directors.
Prior year reserves or fund balances may be appropriated to fund items not previously included in the
adopted budget. Reserves or fund balances exceeding minimum amounts required by fiscal policies may
be appropriated if it is determined to be in the best interest of the District. Directors may also appropriate
reserves in case of emergencies or unusual circumstances.

The District has an established reserve policy with eight separate categories for its reserve funds.
Collectively, these individual reserve requirements total over $500 million for each year of the current
ten-year cash flow forecast. In Fiscal Year 2009-10, Financial Management staff and the Board of
Directors concluded that given the nature of the likely events that may cause a withdrawal from the
District's reserves and the degree of overlap among reserve categories,the total amount reserved need not
equal the sum of each separate reserve category. As a result, the District adjusted the application of its
reserve policy, leading to a reduction of$40 million of the accumulated total, or approximately 8 percent.
Reserve levels are calculated in accordance with the District's reserve policy. Set forth in Table 13 below
are the actual reserves at June 30, 2010, June 30, 2011 and June 30, 2012 and the District's unaudited
reserves at June 30,2013,for each fund.

The District's reserves consist of the following components:
• The Cash Flow Requirements Reserve was established to fund operation, maintenance and
certificates of participation debt service expenses for the first half of the fiscal year, prior to the
receipt of the first installment of the property tax allocation and sewer service user fees which are
collected as a separate line item on the property tax bill. The level of this reserve is established as
the sum of an amount equal to six months operations and maintenance expense and the total of
certificates of participation debt service expenses due in the subsequent fiscal year.
• The Operating Contingencies Reserve was established to provide for non-recurring expenditures
that were not anticipated when the annual budget and Sewer Service Charges were adopted. The
level of this reserve is equal to 10%of the District's annual operating budget.
• The Capital Improvement Program Reserve was established to fund annual increments of the
Capital Improvement Program with a target level at one-half of the average annual Capital
Improvement Program through the year 2020. Levels higher and lower than the target can be
expected while the long-term financing and capital improvement programs are being finalized.
• The Catastrophic Loss, or Self-Insurance Reserve is established for property damage including
fire, flood and earthquake, general liability and workers' compensation. The level of reserve in
this fund is maintained at a level to fund the District's non-reimbursed costs which are estimated
to be$57 million.
• The Capital Replacement and Refurbishment Reserve was established to provide 30% of the
funding to replace or refurbish the current collection, treatment and disposal facilities. The
current replacement value of these facilities is estimated to be approximately $6.26 billion. The
initial reserve level for this fund was established at $50 million and is augmented by interest
earnings and a portion of the annual Sewer Service Charges.
• Debt Service Required Reserves include trustee-held amounts in any Obligation Reserve Fund
and additional amounts held by the District for the payment of debt service in accordance with the
District's reserve policy. The District's current policy is to maintain reserves (including trustee-
held reserves) for debt service in the amount of 10% of the principal amount of the District's
outstanding debt obligations.
• The Rate Stabilization Reserve accumulates all available funds which exceed the targets for all
other reserves. The Rate Stabilization Reserve is a separate fund from the Rate Stabilization
Account established under the Trust Agreement. There is currently no established target for this
reserve and,because the reserves of all other funds have not been exceeded, the reserve level for
this reserve fund is zero for Fiscal Yew 2013-14.

Forecasted Operating Data
Set forth in Table 15 below are forecasted operating results for the District for Fiscal Years 2013-
14 through 2017-18. These projections assume the number of projects and scheduled build out set forth
in the 2013 CIP Validation Study, and reflect the Board-approved rate increase of 4.8% in Fiscal Year
2013-14, and the average annual rate increases of 2.4% over the following four fiscal years. Principal
expenditure components of these projections are derived from the 2013 CIP Validation Study, which
identified 87 large capital projects and 50 special projects with a 20-year projected outlay of$1.8 billion.
Much of the construction is scheduled during the next five years, with average annual capital outlays of
$164 million. The District's CIP cash flow outlay for Fiscal Year 2012-13 was approximately $95.7
million. The District's CIP cash flow budget for Fiscal Year 2013-14 is $144.9 million. This CIP budget
finances joint works treatment and disposal system improvement projects, and collection system
improvement projects. The preparation of such projections was based upon certain assumptions and
certain forecasts with respect to conditions that may occur in the future. While the District believes that
these assumptions and forecasts are reasonable for the purposes of the projected selected operating data,it
makes no representation that they will in fact occur. To the extent that actual future conditions differ
from those assumed herein,the data will vary.

Management's Discussion and Analysis of Operating Data
The District's Fiscal Year 2013-14 total operating, capital improvement, debt service, and other
financing requirement budget is $398.9 million, a 5.6 percent increase over the prior yen budget of
$377.8 million. The increase in the Fiscal Yen 2013-14 budget is primarily due to the timing of the
construction schedules on the implementation of CIP validated capital projects of$1.3 billion over the
next ten years. The District's Fiscal Year 2013-14 budget includes$144.9 million in capital improvement
outlays. With the completion of secondary treatment standards in December 2012,the District is focusing
its efforts on the continued refinement of its asset management based engineering planning process. This
process has been used to propose project modifications to more efficiently package projects for execution.
As an example, four individual digester gas handling projects are proposed to be combined into a single
coordinated project.
The Fiscal Yen 2013-14 operations budget for the collection, treatment, and disposal of
wastewater is $151.2 million, a decrease of $0.4 million, or less than one percent from the prior year
budget of$151.6 million. Although individual expense categories will increase or decrease slightly, the
overall decrease to the operating budget is primarily attributable to a decrease of$2.9 million, or 11.1
percent, in contractual services and a decrease of$1.6 million, or 8.3 percent, in operating materials and
supplies that was mostly offset by the increase in personnel costs of$3.7 million, or 3.9 percent. The
decrease in contractual services is primarily attributable to the termination of an agreement, estimated to
cost the District approximately$3.4 million,with a company that had attempted to process biosolids into
fuel pellets. The decrease in operating materials and supplies is primarily due to the decrease in odor
control chemicals of$876,000 through optimization of these chemicals within the treatment plants and
collection systems. The increase in personnel costs is primarily due to the increase in retirement
premiums. Although staffing levels were decreased from the Fiscal Year 2012=13 approved full-time
equivalent positions ("FTE") of 627.75 to 626.00, or a reduction of 1.75 FTE positions, employer
retirement premium contributions me projected to increase by $2.1 million. This increase is predicated
from the actuarial valuation completed on December 31, 2012 that requires greater employer premium
contributions primarily because of underperfomting returns on the retirement investment portfolio.
In preparation of the Fiscal Year 2013-14 budget update, the second yew of the previously
approved biennium budget, District staff developed and reviewed with the Board of Directors a capital
improvement program to deliver the levels of service included in the District's five-year strategic plan.
These levels of services and associated capital projects are included in the District's Five-Year Strategic
Plan. In addition, District staff validated the active CIP projects currently being executed to ensure that
the scope of work on the active projects remains appropriate, and that the cost estimates have been
accurately updated. The Fiscal Year 2013-14 CIP cash flow project budget was approved at $141.6
million; an increase of 5.8 percent from last year's approved cash flow of$133.9 million. This approved
CIP outlay of$141.6 for Board of Director's approved projects coupled with approved outlays of$3.3
million deemed necessary from the Asset Management Program for rehabilitation, refurbishment, and
replacement of yet to be determined specific projects comprise the total Board of Director's approved CIP
outlays of 144.9 million for Fiscal Year 2013-14. The incorporation of the 2009 Facilities Master Plan
(the "Master Plan') into the CIP includes the addition of 65 new CIP projects totaling $615.7 million
through the year 2050. The 2013 validated CIP includes 87 large capital projects and 50 special projects
with a 20-year expenditure of$1.8 billion.
The completion of the CIP Validation Study in 2013 reaffirmed the need for rate increases in
future years. Based on the results of the CIP Validation Study and the Five-Year Plan, the Board of
Directors adopted Ordinance No. OCSD-41, increasing the sanitary sewer service charges by
approximately 4.8 percent in Fiscal Year 2013-14, and by an annual average of 2.4 percent over the
following four years. These rate increases were approved by a vote of two-thirds of the members of the
52906807.6 43
Board of Directors and are not subject to reaffirmation in any of the future fiscal years covered by this
five-year period. This action increased the single family residence user rate, the basis for all sewer user
fee rates, from $294 in Fiscal Year 2012-13 to $308 in Fiscal Year 2013-14. See "DISTRICT
REVENUES—Sewer Service Charges."
Investment of District Funds
State statutes authorize the District to invest in obligations of the United States Government,state
and local governmental agencies, negotiable certificates of deposits, bankers acceptances, commercial
paper, reverse repurchase agreements and a variety of other investment instruments which are allowable
under California Government Code Section 53600 et seq.
All District funds, except for Obligation Reserve Funds controlled by a bank trustee pursuant to
the provisions of Existing Senior Obligations, are managed by an external money manager, Pacific
Investment Management Company. Mellon Trust serves as the District's independent custodian bank for
its investment program. Callan Associates serves as the District's independent advisor.
As of June 30, 2013, the District's externally managed fund consisted of a short-term investment
portfolio of$71.0 million with an average maturity of 102 days, and a long-term investment portfolio of
$441.4 million with average maturities of 3.0 years. Investments consist of United States government
securities, corporate bonds and commercial paper. The District's portfolio contains no structured
investment vehicles("SIVs")or reverse repurchase agreements.
Deposits in banks are maintained in financial institutions which provide deposit protection on the
bank balance from the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation. The California Government Code requires
State banks and savings and loans to secure local government deposits by pledging government securities
equal to 110% of the deposits or by pledging first trust deed mortgage notes equal to 150% of the
deposits.
The District's Investment Policy requires that the District invest public funds in a manner which
ensures the safety and preservation of capital while meeting reasonable anticipated operating expenditure
needs, achieving a reasonable rate of term and conforming to all state and local statutes governing the
investment of public funds. The primary objectives, in order, of the District's investment activities are
safety, liquidity and return on investment.
FINANCIAL OBLIGATIONS

In connection with the execution and delivery of the above-referenced outstanding certificates of
participation, the District entered into certain installment purchase agreements, or equivalent documents,
providing for the payment of installment payments or similar payments.
Anticipated Financings
From time to time the District may incur other obligations to finance portions of the CIP. Over
the next ten years,however,the District does not expect to issue any additional debt,other than refunding
debt. The District expects to refund outstanding obligations from time to time, such as the Prior Notes
discussed in Table 16 above.
Direct and Overlapping Bonded Debt
The aggregate direct and overlapping bonded debt of the District as of June 30, 2012 is set forth
on page 54 of Appendix B.
THE CORPORATION
The Corporation was organized on June 19, 2000 as a nonprofit public benefit corporation
pursuant to the Nonprofit Public Corporation law of the State. The Corporation's purpose is to render
assistance to the District in its acquisition of equipment,real property and improvements on behalf of the
District. Under its articles of incorporation, the Corporation has all powers conferred upon nonprofit
public benefit corporations by the laws of the State,provided that it will not engage in any activity other
than that which is necessary or convenient for, or incidental to the purposes for which it was formed.
The Corporation is a separate legal entity from the District. It is governed by a twenty-five
member Board of Directors. The Corporation has no employees. All staff work is performed by
employees of the District. The members of the Corporation's Board of Directors are the Board of
Directors of the District.
52906807.6 45
The District's Director of Finance and Administrative Services and other District employees are
available to provide stall support to the Corporation.
The Corporation has not entered into any material financing arrangements other than those
referred to in this Official Statement. Further information concerning the Corporation may be obtained
from the Orange County Sanitation District office at 10844 Ellis Avenue, Fountain Valley, California,
92708-7018.
LIMITATIONS ON TAXES AND REVENUES
Article XIIIA of the California Constitution
On Jane 6, 1978, California voters approved Proposition 13 ("Proposition 13'), which added
Article XIIIA to the State Constitution ("Article XIIIA ). Article XIIIA, as amended, limits the amount
of any ad valorem tax on real property to one percent of the full cash value thereof, except that additional
ad valorem taxes may be levied to pay debt service on (i)indebtedness approved by the voters prior to
July 1, 1978,(ii)(as a result of an amendment to Article XIIIA approved by State voters on Jane 3, 1986)
on bonded indebtedness for the acquisition or improvement of real property which has been approved on
or after July 1, 1978 by two-third of the voters on such indebtedness, and (iii)bonded indebtedness
incurred by a school district or community college district for the construction, reconstruction,
rehabilitation or replacement of school facilities or the acquisition or lease of real property for school
facilities, approved by 55% of the voters of the district, but only if certain accountability measures are
included in the proposition. Article XIIIA defines full cash value to mean "the county assessor's
valuation of real property as shown on the 1975-76 tax bill under "full cash value," or thereafter, the
appraised value of real property when purchased, newly constructed, or a change in ownership has
occurred after the 1975 assessment." The fall cash value may be adjusted annually to reflect inflation at a
rate not to exceed 2%per year or to reflect a reduction in the consumer price index or comparable data for
the area under the taxing jurisdiction, or reduced in the event of declining property values caused by
substantial damage, destruction, or other factors. Legislation enacted by the State Legislature to
implement Article XIIIA provides that notwithstanding any other law, local agencies may not levy any ad
valorem property tax except to pay debt service on indebtedness approved by the voters as described
above.
Legislation Implementing Article XIIIA
Legislation has been enacted and amended a number of times since 1978 to implement Article
XIIIA. Under current law,local agencies are no longer permitted to levy directly any property tax(except
to pay voter-approved indebtedness). The one percent property tax is automatically levied by the County
and distributed according to a formula among taxing agencies. The formula apportions the tax roughly in
proportion to the relative shares of taxes levied prior to 1989.
Increases of assessed valuation resulting from reappraisals of property due to new construction,
change in ownership or from the 2% annual adjustment are allocated among the various jurisdictions in
the "taxing area" based upon their respective "situs." Any such allocation made to a local agency
continues as part of its allocation in future years.
Beginning in the 1981-82 fiscal year, assessors in the State no longer record property values an
tax rolls at the assessed value of 25%of market value which was expressed as$4 per$100 assessed value.
All taxable property is now shown at full market value on the tax rolls. Consequently, the tax rate is
expressed as $I per $100 of taxable value. All taxable property value included in this Official Statement
52906807.6 46
is shown at 1000/. of market value (unless noted differently) and all tax rates reflect the $1 per $100 of
taxable value.
Article XI11B of the California Constitution
An initiative to amend the State Constitution entitled"Limitation of Govemment Appropriations"
was approved on September 6, 1979, thereby adding Article XIIIB to the State Constitution ("Article
XIBB"). Under Article XIIIB,the State and each local governmental entity has an annual"appropriations
limit" and is not permitted to spend certain moneys that are called "appropriations subject to limitation"
(consisting of tax revenues, state subventions and certain other funds) in an amount higher than the
appropriations limit. Article XBIB does not affect the appropriations of moneys that are excluded from
the definition of"appropriations subject to limitation,"including debt service on indebtedness existing or
authorized as of January 1, 1979, or bonded indebtedness subsequently approved by the voters. In
general terms, the appropriations limit is to be based on certain 1978-79 expenditures, and is to be
adjusted annually to reflect changes in consumer prices, populations, and services provided by these
entities. Among other provisions of Article XIIB, if these entities' revenues in any year exceed the
amounts permitted to be spent, the excess would have to be returned by revising tax rates or fee schedules
over the subsequent two years.
"Appropriations subject to limitation" are authorizations to spend "proceeds of taxes," which
consist of tax revenues, state subventions and certain other funds, including proceeds from regulatory
licenses, user charges or other fees to the extent that such proceeds exceed"the cost reasonably home by
such entity in providing the regulation, product or service,"but"proceeds of taxes" excludes tax refunds
and some benefit payments such as unemployment insurance. No limit is imposed on appropriations of
funds which are not "proceeds of taxes," such as reasonable user charges or fees, and certain other non-
tax funds.
Not included in the Article XIIIB limit are appropriations for the debt service costs of bonds
existing or authorized by January 1, 1979, or subsequently authorized by the voters, appropriations
required to comply with mandates of courts or the federal government and appropriations for qualified
capital outlay projects. The appropriations limit may also be exceeded in certain cases of emergency.
The appropriations limit for the District in each year is based on the District's limit for the prior
year, adjusted annually for changes in the cost of living and changes in population, and adjusted, where
applicable, for transfer of financial responsibility of providing services to or from another unit of
government. The change in the cost of living is, at the District's option, either(1)the percentage change
in State per capita personal income, or (2) the percentage change in the local assessment roll on
nonresidential property. Either test is likely to be greater than the change in the cost of living index,
which was used prior to Proposition 111. Change in population is to be measured either within the
jurisdiction of the District or the County as a whole.
As amended by Proposition 111, the appropriations limit is tested over consecutive two-year
periods. Any excess of the aggregate "proceeds of taxes" received by a District over such two-year
period above the combined appropriations limits for those two years is to be returned to taxpayers by
reductions in tax rates or fee schedules over the subsequent two years. As originally enacted in 1979,the
District's appropriations limit was based on 1978-79 authorizations to expend proceeds of taxes and was
adjusted annually to reflect changes in cost of living and population (using different definitions, which
were modified by Proposition 111). Starting with Fiscal Year 1990-91,the District's appropriations limit
was recalculated by taking the actual Fiscal Year 1986-87 limit, and applying the annual adjustments as if
Proposition I I l had been in effect. The District does not anticipate that any such appropriations
52906807.6 47
limitations will impair its ability to make Installment Payments as required by the Installment Purchase
Agreement.
Proposition 1A and Proposition 22
Proposition lA ("Proposition lA"), proposed by the Legislature in connection with the 2004-05
Budget Act and approved by the voters in November 2004, restricts State authority to reduce major local
tax revenues such as the tax shifts permitted to take place in Fiscal Years 2004-05 and 2005-06.
Proposition lA provides that the State may not reduce any local sales tax rate, limit existing local
government authority to levy a sales tax rate or change the allocation of local sales tax revenues, subject
to certain exceptions. Proposition lA generally prohibits the State from shifting to schools or community
colleges any share of property tax revenues allocated to local governments for any fiscal year,as set forth
under the laws in effect as of November 3, 2004. Any change in the allocation of property tax revenues
among local governments within a county must be approved by two-thirds of both houses of the
Legislature.
Proposition IA provides, however, that beginning in Fiscal Year 2008-09, the State may shift to
schools and community colleges up to 8%of local government property tax revenues,which amount must
be repaid, with interest, within three years, if the Governor proclaims that the shift is needed due to a
severe state financial hardship, the shift is approved by two-thirds of both houses and certain other
conditions are met. Such a shift may not occur more than twice in any ten-year period. The State may
also approve voluntary exchanges of local sales tax and property tax revenues among local governments
within a county.
Proposition IA was generally superseded by the passage of a new initiative constitutional
amendment at the November 2010 election, known as Proposition 22 ("Proposition 22"). The effect of
Proposition 22 is to prohibit the State, even during a period of severe fiscal hardship, from delaying the
distribution of tax revenues for transportation,redevelopment, or local government projects and services.
It prevents the State from redirecting redevelopment agency property tax increment to any other local
government or from temporarily shifting property taxes from cities, counties and special districts to
schools. This is intended to,among other things, stabilize local government revenue sources by restricting
the State's control over local property taxes.
Prior to the passage of Proposition 22, the State invoked Proposition lA to divert $1.935 billion
in local properly tax revenues in fiscal year 2009-10 from cities, counties,and special districts to the State
to offset State general fund spending for education and other programs. Approximately$5 million of the
District's property tax revenues were diverted to the State as a result of this Proposition IA suspension.
The District participated in a Proposition IA Securitization Program (the `Program") sponsored by the
California Statewide Communities Development Authority. The Program allowed the District to
exchange its anticipated State property tax receivable for an equal amount of cash. In addition,the State's
adopted 2009-10 budget included a $1.7 billion diversion in local property tax revenues from local
redevelopment agencies. Many California Redevelopment Association members are actively engaged in
litigation to block such diversion and recoup certain payments already made under certain legislation
passed in July 2009 that is beyond the reach of Proposition 22,known as"ABX4 26."
Proposition lA also provides that if the State reduces the vehicle license fee ("VLF") rate
currently in effect, 0.65% of vehicle value, the State most provide local governments with equal
replacement revenues. Further, Proposition lA requires the State to suspend State mandates affecting
cities, counties and special districts, excepting mandates relating to employee rights, schools or
community colleges, in any year that the State does not fully reimburse local governments for their costs
to comply with such mandates.

Article XIIIC and Article XIIID of the California Constitution
Proposition 218, a State ballot initiative (mown as the "Right to Vote on Taxes Act," was
approved by the voters on November 5, 1996. The initiative added Articles XIIIC and XIIID to the
California Constitution, creating additional requirements for the imposition by most local governments of
"general taxes,""special taxes,""assessments,""fees,"and`charges." Proposition 218 became effective,
pursuant to its terms, as of November 6, 1996, although compliance with some of its provisions was
deferred until July 1, 1997, and certain of its provisions purport to apply to any tax imposed for general
governmental purposes (i.e., "general taxes") imposed, extended or increased on or after January 1, 1995
and prior to November 6, 1996.
Article XIIID imposes substantive and procedural requirements on the imposition, extension or
increase of any"fee" or`charge" subject to its provisions. A "fee" or"charge" subject to Article XIIID
includes any levy, other than an ad valorem tax, special tax or assessment, imposed by an agency upon a
parcel or upon a person as an incident of property ownership. Article XIIID prohibits, among other
things, the imposition of any proposed fee or charge, and, possibly, the increase of any existing fee or
charge, in the event written protests against the proposed fee or charge are presented at a required public
hearing on the fee or charge by a majority of owners of the parcels upon which the fee or charge is to be
imposed. Except for fees and charges for water, sewer and refuse collection services, the approval of a
majority of the property owners subject to the fee or charge,or at the option of the agency,by a two-thirds
vote of the electorate residing in the affected area, is required within 45 days following the public hearing
on any such proposed new or increased fee or charge. The California Supreme Court decisions in
Richmond v. Shasta Community Services District, 32 Cal.4th 409 (2004) ("Richmond"), and Bighorn-
Desert View Water Agency v. Verid, 39 CalAth 205 (2006) ("Bighorn") have clarified some of the
uncertainty surrounding the applicability of Section 6 of Article XIIID to service fees and charges. In
Richmond, the Shasta Community Services District charged a water connection fee, which included a
capacity charge for capital improvements to the water system and a fire suppression charge. The Court
held that both the capacity charge and the fire suppression charge were not subject to Article XIIID
because a water connection fee is not a property-related fee or charge because it results from the property
owner's voluntary decision to apply for the connection. In both Richmond and Bighorn, however, the
Court stated that a fee for ongoing water service through an existing connection is imposed "as an
incident of property ownership" within the meaning of Article XIIID, rejecting, in Bighorn, the water
agency's argument that consumption-based water charges are not imposed "as an incident of property
ownership"but as a result of the voluntary decisions of customers as to how much water to use.
Article XIIID also provides that"standby charges" are considered"assessments"and must follow
the procedures required for "assessments" under Article XIIID and imposes several procedural
requirements for the imposition of any assessment, which may include (1) various notice requirements,
including the requirement to mail a ballot to owners of the affected property; (2) the substitution of a
property owner ballot procedure for the traditional written protest procedure, and providing that"majority
protest" exists when ballots (weighted according to proportional financial obligation) submitted in
opposition exceed ballots in favor of the assessments; and (3) the requirement that the levying entity
"separate the general benefits from the special benefits conferred on a parcel"of land. Article XIIID also
precludes standby charges for services that are not immediately available to the parcel being charged.
Article XIIID provides that all existing, new or increased assessments are to comply with its
provisions beginning July 1, 1997. Existing assessments imposed on or before November 5, 1996, and
"imposed exclusively to finance the capital costs or maintenance and operations expenses for [among
other things] water" are exempted from some of the provisions of Article XIIID applicable to
assessments.
52906807.6 49
Article XIIIC extends the people's initiative power to reduce or repeal existing local taxes,
assessments, fees and charges. This extension of the initiative power is not limited by the terms of Article
XIIIC to fees, taxes, assessment fees and charges imposed after November 6, 1996 and absent other
authority could result in retroactive reduction in any existing taxes, assessments, fees or charges. In
Bighorn, the Court concluded that under Article XIIIC local voters by initiative may reduce a public
agency's water rates and delivery charges. The Court noted, however, that it was not holding that the
authorized initiative power is free of all limitations, stating that it was not determining whether the
electorate's initiative power is subject to the public agency's statutory obligation to set water service
charges at a level that will `pay the operating expenses of the agency, . . . provide for repairs and
depreciation of works,provide a reasonable surplus for improvements,extensions,and enlargements,pay
the interest on any bonded debt, and provide a sinking or other fund for the payment of the principal of
such debt as it may become due"
The District implemented a five-year plan beginning in Fiscal Year 2002-03 which included a
rate increase of$7.50 per year, or 9.4%, for all ratepayers to $87.50 per year. In May 2003, the Board of
Directors approved a 15% rate increase per year, for each year, over the then following five years, upon
2/3 vote of the Board of Directors after conducting a noticed public hearing in compliance with Article
XIIID. The Board of Directors considered this increase necessary to provide needed capital
improvements,to cover additional treatment and disinfection costs, and to minimize rate increases over an
extended period of time. On July 2, 2003, the Board of Directors adopted Ordinance No. OCSD-20
increasing sanitary sewer service charges for all single family and multi-family residential units as well as
most commercial and industrial properties. The Ordinance was adopted by a 2/3 vote of the Board of
Directors as required under law after conducting a noticed public hearing in compliance with all laws.
The Ordinance increases the amount of the annual charges by approximately 15%per year for each of the
following five years, commencing with Fiscal Year 2003-04, thereby raising the single family residence
user rate from the then current$87.50 to $100.00, $115.00,$132.00, $152.00, and$175.00 annually. The
Ordinance discounted by 5%the annual increases which were the subject of the required protest hearings
on the fee increase as described above. After the completion of the CIP Validation Study for Fiscal Year
2005-06 that increased its ten year CIP cash flow projects to $2.2 billion, or an average of$220 million
per year, the Board of Directors adopted Ordinance No. OCSD-26 increasing the Fiscal Year 2005-06
single family residential rate 31%,from$115 to$151 for such year. In May 2006,the Board of Directors
adopted Ordinance No. OCSD-30B increasing the Fiscal Year 2006-07 single family residential rate
9.8%, from$151.00 to $165.80 for such year, except those located in Revenue Area 14. These increases
represented the increase permitted under the protest hearings on the fee increase which was held in 2003.
In Jane 2007, the Board of Directors adopted Ordinance No. OCSD-32 increasing the Fiscal Year 2007-
08 single family residential rate by 9.8%. In February 2008, after a noticed public hearing, the Board of
Directors adopted Ordinance No.OCSD-35, which provides for annual increases in the single family
residential rate of 10.4%, 10.0%, 10.4%, 9.4%and 10.1%,respectively, for Fiscal Years 2008-09 through
2012-13. On March 27, 2013, the Board of Directors adopted Ordinance No. OCSD41 approving
increases in its sanitary sewer service charges for all single family residences, multi-family residential
units, and all non-residential properties. The Board increased the single family residential rate,which is
the basis for all of the District's sewer service charges,by 4.8%for Fiscal Year 2013-14 and thereafter by
an average of 2.4%annually for each Fiscal Year through Fiscal Year 2017-18.
Pursuant to the Master Agreement, the District will,to the extent permitted by law, fix, prescribe
and collect fees and charges for the services of the Wastewater System which will be at least sufficient to
yield during each Fiscal Year(a)Net Revenues equal to 125%of Debt Service on Senior Obligations for
such Fiscal Year, and(b)Net Operating Revenues equal to 100% of Debt Service on all Obligations for
such Fiscal Year. The District may make adjustments from time to time in such fees and charges and may
make such classification thereof as it deems necessary, but will not reduce the fees and charges then in
effect unless the Revenues and Net Revenues from such reduced fees and charges will at all times be
52906807.6 50
sufficient to meet the requirements of the Master Agreement. In the event that service charges me
determined to be subject to Article XIIID, and proposed increased service charges cannot be imposed as a
result of a majority protest, such circumstances may adversely effect the ability of the District to generate
revenues in the amounts required by the Master Agreement, and to make Installment Payments as
provided in the Installment Purchase Agreement. No assurance may be given that Articles XIIIC and
XIIID will not have a material adverse impact on Net Revenues.
Other Initiative Measures
Articles XIIIA, XIIIB, XIBC and XIIID were adopted pursuant to California's constitutional
initiative process. From time to time other initiative measures could be adopted by California voters,
placing additional limitations on the ability of the District to increase revenues.

Appendix A, any procedures on the financial statements addressed in that report. McGladrey & Pullen,
LLP also has not performed any procedures relating to this official statement.
TAX MATTERS
The Internal Revenue Code of 1986 (the "Code") imposes certain requirements that most be met
subsequent to the execution and delivery of the Notes for the interest component of the Installment
Payment (the "Interest Component"), and the allocable portion thereof distributable in respect of each
Note(the"Note Interest Distribution"),to be and remain excluded pursuant to section 103(a)of the Code
from the gross income of the owners thereof from the gross income of the owner thereof for federal
income tax purposes. Noncompliance with such requirements could cause such amounts to be included in
gross income for federal income tax purposes retroactive to the date of delivery of the Installment
Purchase Agreement and the Notes.
In the opinion of Fulbright & Jaworski LLP, Los Angeles, California, Special Counsel, under
existing statutes, regulations, rulings and court decisions, the Interest Component allocable to and the
Note Interest Distributions in respect of a Note is exempt from personal income taxes of the State of
California and, assuming compliance with the covenants referred to herein, the Interest Component
allocable to and the Note Interest Distributions in respect of a Note are excluded pursuant to
section 103(a) of the Code from the gross income of the owners thereof for federal income tax purposes.
In the further opinion of Special Counsel,under existing statutes,regulations, mlings and court decisions,
the Notes are not"specified private activity bonds" within the meaning of section 57(a)(5) of the Code
and,therefore,the Interest Component allocable to and the Note Interest Distributions in respect of a Note
will not be treated as an item of tax preference for purposes of computing the alternative minimum tax
imposed by section 55 of the Code. Receipt or accrual of the Interest Component allocable to and the
Note Interest Distributions in respect of a Note owned by a corporation may affect the computation of the
alternative minimum taxable income.A corporation's alternative minimum taxable income is the basis on
which the alternative minimum tax imposed by section 55 of the Code will be computed.
Notice 94-84, 1994-2 C.B. 559, states that the Internal Revenue Service (the "Service") is
studying whether the stated interest portion of the payment at maturity on a short-term debt obligation
(such as the Notes),that matures not more than one year from the date of issue,bears a stated fixed rate of
interest and is described in section I03(a) of the Code,is (i) qualified stated interest that is excluded from
the stated redemption price at maturity of the obligation(within the meaning of section 1273 of the Code)
but is excluded from gross income pursuant to section 103(a) of the Code, or (ii) is not qualified stated
interest and, therefore, is included by the taxpayer in the stated redemption price at maturity of the
obligation, creating or increasing (as to that taxpayer) original issue discount on the obligation that is
excluded from gross income pursuant to section 103(a) of the Code. Notice 94-84 states that until the
52906807.6 52
Service provides fiuther guidance with respect to tax-exempt short-term debt obligations, a taxpayer
holding such obligations may treat the stated interest payable at maturity either as qualified stated interest
or as included in the stated redemption price at maturity of the obligation. However, the taxpayer must
treat the amounts to be paid at maturity on all tax-exempt short-teen debt obligations in a consistent
manner. Notice 94-84 does not address various aspects necessary to the application of the latter method
(including, for example, the treatment of a holder acquiring its Note other than in the original public
offering or at a price other than the original offering price). Each person considering acquiring the Notes
should consult its own tax advisor with respect to the tax consequences of ownership of and of the
election between the choices of treatment of the stated interest payable at maturity on the Notes.
The initial public offering price for the Notes is greater than the principal amount payable on the
Notes at maturity. To the extent that a purchaser of a Note who treats the stated interest payable at
maturity as qualified stated interest (as described above) acquires the Note at a price greater than the
aggregate amount (other than such qualified stated interest) payable on such Note, such excess will
constitute "bond premium" under the Code. Section 171 of the Code, and the Treasury Regulations
promulgated thereunder, provide generally that bond premium on a non-callable tax-exempt obligation
must be amortized over the remaining term of the obligation: the amount of premium so amortized will
reduce the owner's basis in such Note for federal income tax purposes,but such amortized premium will
not be deductible for federal income tax purposes. Consequently, an owner of a Note who purchased the
Note with bond premium and held the Note until paid at maturity generally will not realize tax gain or
loss on such Note. The rate and timing of the amortization of the bond premium and the corresponding
basis reduction may result in an owner realizing a taxable gain when a Note owned by such owner is sold
or disposed of for an amount equal to or in some circumstances even less than the original cost of the
Note to the owner. Purchasers should consult their own tax advisors as to the computation and treatment
of such amortizable bond premium, including,but not limited to, the calculation of gain or loss upon the
sale,maturity or other disposition of a Note.
Pursuant to the Trust Agreement and in the Tax Certificate Pertaining to Arbitrage and Other
Matters under Sections 103 and 141-150 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, to be delivered by the
District and the Corporation in connection with the issuance of the Notes,the District and the Corporation
will make representations relevant to the determination of, and will make certain covenants regarding or
affecting, the exclusion of interest on the Notes from the gross income of the owners thereof for federal
income tax purposes. In reaching its opinions described above, Special Counsel will assume the accuracy
of such representations and the present and future compliance by the District and the Corporation with
such covenants referred to herein. Further, except as stated above, Special Counsel will express no
opinion as to any federal or state tax consequences of the receipt of interest on, or the ownership or
disposition of, the Notes.
Special Counsel has not undertaken to advise in the future whether any events after the date of
execution and delivery of the Installment Purchase Agreement and the Notes may affect the tax status of
the Interest Component or the Note Interest Distributions. No assurance can be given that future
legislation, if enacted into law, will not contain provisions that could directly or indirectly reduce the
benefit of the exemption of such amounts from personal income taxation by the State of California or of
the exclusion of the interest on the Notes from the gross income of the owners thereof for federal income
tax purposes. Furthermore, Special Counsel will express no opinion as to any federal, state or local tax
law consequences with respect to the Installment Purchase Agreement, the Notes,the Interest Component
or Note Interest Distributions, if any action is taken with respect to the Installment Purchase Agreement,
the Notes or the proceeds thereof, or the Trust Agreement predicated or permitted upon the advice or
approval of other counsel.
52906807.6 53
Special Counsel's opinion is not a guarantee of a result, but represents its legal judgment based
upon its review of existing statutes, regulations, published rulings and court decisions and the
representations and covenants of the District and the Corporation described above. No ruling has been
sought from the Internal Revenue Service (the "Service") with respect to the matters addressed in the
opinion of Special Counsel,and Special Counsel's opinion is not binding on the Service. The Service has
an ongoing program of auditing the tax-exempt status of the interest on municipal obligations. If an audit
of the Notes is commenced, under current procedures the Service is likely to treat the District as the
"taxpayer," and the owners would have no right to participate in the audit process. In responding to or
defending an audit of the tax-exempt status of the Interest Component and Note Interest Distributions
accrued in respect of Notes, the District may have different or conflicting interest from the owners.
Public awareness of any future audit of the Notes could adversely affect the value and liquidity of the
Notes during the pendency of the audit,regardless of its ultimate outcome.
Although Special Counsel is of the opinion that Interest Component and Note Interest
Distributions in respect of a Note are exempt from California personal income tax and excluded from the
gross income of the owners thereof for federal income tax purposes, an owner's federal, state or local tax
liability may be otherwise affected by the ownership or disposition of the Notes. The nature and extent of
these other tax consequences will depend upon the owner's other items of income or deduction. Without
limiting the generality of the foregoing, prospective purchasers of the Notes should be aware that (i)
section 265 of the Code denies a deduction for interest on indebtedness incurred or continued to purchase
or carry the Notes and the Code contains additional limitations on interest deductions applicable to
financial institutions that own tax-exempt obligations (such as the Notes), (ii) with respect to insurance
companies subject to the tax imposed by section 831 of the Code, section 832(b)(5)(B)(i) reduces the
deduction for loss reserves by 15% of the sum of certain items, including Interest Component and Note
Interest Distributions in respect of the Notes, (iii) Interest Component and Note Interest Distributions
accrued in respect of Notes owned by certain foreign corporations doing business in the United States
could be subject to a branch profits tax imposed by section 884 of the Code, (iv) passive investment
income,including Interest Component and Note Interest Distributions accrued in respect of Notes,may be
subject to federal income taxation under section 1375 of the Code for Subchapter S corporations that have
Subchapter C earnings and profits at the close of the taxable year if greater than 25%of the gross receipts
of such Subchapter S corporation is passive investment income, (v) section 86 of the Code requires
recipients of certain Social Security and certain Railroad Retirement benefits to take into account, in
determining the taxability of such benefits, Interest Distributions and Note Interest Distributions accrued
in respect of Notes owned by such recipients for federal income tax purposes,and(vi)under section 32(i)
of the Code, receipt of investment income, including Interest Component and Note Interest Distributions
accrued in respect of Notes,may disqualify the recipient thereof from obtaining the earned income credit.
Special Counsel has expressed no opinion regarding any such other tax consequences.
Existing law may change to reduce or eliminate the benefit to noteholders of the exclusion of
interest on the Interest Component and Note Interest Distributions accrued in respect of the Notes from
gross income for federal income tax purposes. Any proposed legislation or administrative action,whether
or not taken, could also affect the value and marketability of the Notes. Prospective purchasers of the
Notes should consult with their own tax advisors with respect to any proposed or future changes in tax
law.
A copy of the form of opinion of Special Counsel to be delivered at the closing of the Notes is
included in Appendix F.
52906807.6 54

BOOK-ENTRY SYSTEM
The description that follows of the procedures and recordkeeping with respect to beneficial
ownership interests in the Notes,payment of principal and interest evidenced by the Notes to Participants
or Beneficial Owners, confirmation and transfer of beneficial ownership interests in the Notes, and other
Note-related transactions by and between DTC, Participants and Beneficial Owners, is based on
information furnished by DTC which the District and the Corporation each believes to be reliable, but the
District and the Corporation take no responsibility far the completeness or accuracy thereof.
The Depository Trust Company—Book-Entry System
The Depository Trust Company("DTC"),New York,NY,will act as securities depository for the
securities (the "Notes"). The Notes will be issued as fully-registered securities registered in the name of
Cede & Co. (DTC's partnership nominee) or such other time as may be requested by an authorized
representative of DTC. One fully-registered note will be issued for the Notes in the aggregate principal
amount of such issue, and will be deposited with DTC.
DTC is a limited-purpose trust company organized under the New York Banking Law, a
"banking organization" within the meaning of the New York Banking Law, a member of the Federal
Reserve System, a "clearing corporation" within the meaning of the New York Uniform Commercial
Code, and a "clearing agency" registered pursuant to the provisions of Section 17A of the Securities
Exchange Act of 1934. DTC holds and provides asset servicing for over 3.5 million U.S. and non-U.S.
equity issues, corporate and municipal debt issues, and money market instruments (from over 100
countries) that DTC's participants ("Direct Participants") deposit with DTC. DTC also facilitates the
post-trade settlement among Direct Participants of sales and other securities transactions in deposited
securities, through electronic computerized book-entry transfers and pledges between Direct Participants'
accounts. This eliminates the need for physical movement of securities certificates. Direct Participants
include both U.S. and non-U.S. securities brokers and dealers, banks, trust companies, clearing
corporations,and certain other organizations. DTC is a wholly-owned subsidiary of The Depository Trust
& Clearing Corporation ("DTCC"). DTCC is the holding company for DTC, National Securities
Clearing Corporation and Fixed Income Clearing Corporation, all of which are registered clearing
agencies. DTCC is owned by the users of its regulated subsidiaries. Access to the DTC system is also
available to others such as both U.S. and non-U.S. securities brokers and dealers,banks, trust companies,
and clearing corporations that clear through or maintain a custodial relationship with a Direct Participant,
either directly or indirectly("Indirect Participants"). DTC has a Standard&Poor's rating of"AA+." The
DTC Rules applicable to its Participants are on file with the Securities and Exchange Commission. More
information about DTC can be found at www.dtcc.com. The information on such website is not
incorporated herein by such reference or otherwise.
Purchases of Notes under the DTC system must be made by or through Direct Participants,which
will receive a credit for the Notes on DTC's records. The ownership interest of each actual purchaser of
each Note ("Beneficial Owner") is in turn to be recorded on the Direct and Indirect Participants' records.
Beneficial Owners will not receive written confirmation from DTC of their purchase. Beneficial Owners
me, however, expected to receive written confirmations providing details of the transaction, as well as
periodic statements of their holdings, from the Direct or Indirect Participant through which the Beneficial
Owner entered into the transaction. Transfers of ownership interests in the Notes are to be accomplished
by entries made on the books of Direct and Indirect Participants acting on behalf of Beneficial Owners.
Beneficial Owners will not receive certificates representing their ownership interests in the Notes, except
in the event that use of the book-entry system for the Notes is discontinued.
52906807.6 E-I
To facilitate subsequent transfers, all Notes deposited by Direct Participants with DTC are
registered in the name of DTC's partnership nominee, Cede & Co. or such other time as may be
requested by an authorized representative of DTC. The deposit of Notes with DTC and their registration
in the name of Cede&Co. or such other nominee do not effect any change in beneficial ownership. DTC
has no knowledge of the actual Beneficial Owners of the Notes; DTC's records reflect only the identity of
the Direct Participants to whose accounts such Notes are credited, which may or may not be the
Beneficial Owners. The Direct and Indirect Participants will remain responsible for keeping account of
their holdings on behalf of their customers.
Conveyance of notices and other communications by DTC to Direct Participants, by Direct
Participants to Indirect Participants, and by Direct Participants and Indirect Participants to Beneficial
Owners will be governed by arrangements among them, subject to any statutory or regulatory
requirements as may be in effect from time to time. Beneficial Owners of Notes may wish to take certain
steps to augment transmission to them of notices of significant events with respect to the Notes, such as
prepayments, tenders, defaults, and proposed amendments to the security documents. For example,
Beneficial Owners of Notes may wish to ascertain that the nominee holding the Notes for their benefit has
agreed to obtain and transmit notices to Beneficial Owners, in the alternative, Beneficial Owners may
wish to provide their names and addresses to the registrar and request that copies of the notices be
provided directly to them.
Prepayment notices shall be sent to DTC. If less than all of the Notes within an issue are being
prepaid,DTC's practice is to determine by lot the amount of the interest of each Direct Participant in such
issue to be prepaid.
Neither DTC nor Cede & Co. (nor such other DTC nominee)will consent or vote with respect to
the Notes unless authorized by a Direct Participant in accordance with DTC's MMI Procedures. Under
its usual procedures, DTC mails an Omnibus Proxy to the District as soon as possible after the record
date. The Omnibus Proxy assigns Cede&Co.'s consenting or voting rights to those Direct Participants to
whose accounts the Notes are credited on the record date (identified in a listing attached to the Omnibus
Proxy).
Prepayments with respect to the Notes will be made to Cede&Co.,or such other nominee as may
be requested by an authorized representative of DTC. DTC's practice is to credit Direct Participants'
accounts, upon DTC's receipt of funds and corresponding detail information from the District or the
Trustee on the payable date in accordance with their respective holdings shown on DTC's records.
Payments by Participants to Beneficial Owners will be governed by standing instructions and customary
practices, as is the case with securities held for the accounts of customers in bearer form or registered in
"street name," and will be the responsibility of such Participant and not of DTC, nor its nominee, the
Trustee, or the District, subject to any statutory or regulatory requirements as may be in effect from time
to time. Payment of prepayment proceeds, distributions, and dividend payments to Cede & Co. (or such
other nominee as may be requested by an authorized representative of DTC) is the responsibility of the
District or the Trustee, disbursement of such payments to Direct Participants will be the responsibility of
DTC, and disbursement of such payments to the Beneficial Owners will be the responsibility of Direct
and Indirect Participants.
DTC may discontinue providing its services as securities depository with respect to the Notes at
any time by giving reasonable notice to the District or the Trustee. Under such circumstances, in the
event that a successor securities depository is not obtained,Notes are required to be printed and delivered.
The District may decide to discontinue use of the system of book-entry-only transfers through
DTC(or a successor securities depository). In that event,Notes will be printed and delivered to DTC.
52906807.6 E-2
The information in this section concerning DTC and DTC's book-entry system has been obtained
from sources that the District believes to be reliable, but the District takes no responsibility for the
accuracy thereof.
Discontinuance of DTC Services
In the event (i)DTC determines not to continue to act as securities depository for the Notes,
(ii)DTC shall no longer act and give notice to the Trustee of such determination or (iii)the District
determines that it is in the best interest of the Beneficial Owners that they be able to obtain Notes and
delivers a written certificate to the Trustee to that effect, DTC services will be discontinued. If the
District determines to replace DTC with another qualified securities depository, the District shall prepare
or direct the preparation of a new single, separate, fully registered Note for each of the maturities of the
Notes, registered in the name of such successor or substitute qualified securities depository or its
nominee. If the District fails to identify another qualified securities depository to replace DTC then the
Notes shall no longer be restricted to being registered in the certificate registration books in the name of
Cede & Co., but shall be registered in such names as are requested in a certificate of the District, in
accordance with the Trust Agreement.
All Notes may be presented for transfer by the Owner thereof, in person or by his attorney duly
authorized in writing, at the Principal Office of the Trustee, on the books required to be kept by the
Trustee pursuant to the provisions of the Trust Agreement, upon surrender of such Certifications for
cancellation accompanied by delivery of a duly executed written instrument of transfer in a form
acceptable to the Trustee. The Trustee may treat the Owner of any Note as the absolute owner of such
Note for all purposes,whether or not such Note shall be overdue, and the Trustee shall not be affected by
any knowledge or notice to the contrary; and payment of the interest and principal evidenced by such
Note shall be made only to such Owner, which payments shall be valid and effectual to satisfy and
discharge the liability evidenced by such Note to the extent of the sum or sums so paid.
Whenever any Notes shall be surrendered for transfer, the Trustee shall execute and deliver new
Notes representing the same principal amount in Authorized Denominations. The Trustee shall require
the payment of any Owner requesting such transfer of any tax or other governmental charge required to
be paid with respect to such transfer. Notes may be presented for exchange at the Principal Office of the
Trustee for a like aggregate principal amount of Notes of other Authorized Denominations. The Trustee
shall require the payment by the Owner requesting such exchange of any tax or other governmental
charge required to be paid with respect to such exchange. The Trustee shall not be required to transfer or
exchange any Note during the period in which the Trustee is selecting Notes for prepayment,nor shall the
Trustee be required to transfer or exchange any Note or portion thereof selected for prepayment from and
after the date of mailing the notice of prepayment thereof.

Payment under the Installment Purchase Agreement is payable from (i)Net Revenues as provided in the
Installment Purchase Agreement, consisting primarily of all income and revenue received by the District
from the operation or ownership of the Wastewater System of the District (the "Wastewater System")
remaining after payment of Maintenance and Operation Costs, and (ii)other lawfully available funds of
the District. Capitalized terms used and not otherwise defined herein shall have the meanings ascribed to

52906807.6 F-1
As Special Counsel,we have examined copies certified to us as being true and complete copies of
the Master Agreement, the Trust Agreement and the Installment Purchase Agreement and the proceedings
of the District in connection with the execution and delivery of the Notes. We have also examined such
certificates of officers of the District,the Corporation and others as we have considered necessary for the
purposes of this opinion.
Based upon the foregoing,we are of the opinion that:
1. The Master Agreement, the Installment Purchase Agreement and the Trust
Agreement each has been duly and validly authorized,executed and delivered by the District and,
assuming the Master Agreement, the Installment Purchase Agreement and the Trust Agreement
each constitutes the legally valid and binding obligation of the other parties thereto, each
constitutes the legally valid and binding obligation of the District, enforceable against the District
in accordance with its respective terms
2. The obligation of the District to pay the Installment Payment, and the interest
thereon, and other payments required to be made by it under the Installment Purchase Agreement
is a special obligation of the District payable, in the manner provided in the Installment Purchase
Agreement, from Net Revenues and other funds provided for in the Installment Purchase
Agreement lawfully available therefor.
3. Assuming due authorization, execution and delivery of the Trust Agreement and
the Notes by the Trustee,the Notes me entitled to the benefits of the Trust Agreement.
4. Under existing statutes, regulations, rulings and court decisions, and, assuming
compliance with the covenants mentioned below, the component of each Installment Payment
designated as "Interest on Installment Payment' in Section 3.02 of the Installment Purchase
Agreement (the "Interest Component'), and the allocable portion thereof distributable in respect
of any Note (the "Note Interest Distribution"), is excluded pursuant to section 103(a) of the
Internal Revenue Code of 1986 (the "Code") from the gross income of the owners thereof for
federal income tax purposes. We are further of the opinion that under existing statutes,
regulations, rulings and court decisions, the Notes are not "specified private activity bonds"
within the meaning of section 57(a)(5)of the Code and,therefore,the Interest Component and the
Note Interest Distributions will not be treated as an item of tax preference for purposes of
computing the alternative minimum tax imposed by section 55 of the Code. Receipt or accrual of
the Interest Component,and the Note Interest Distribution,owned by a corporation may affect the
computation of the alternative minimum taxable income of that corporation. A corporation's
alternative minimum taxable income is the basis on which the alternative minimum tax imposed
by section 55 of the Code will be computed. We are further of the opinion that the Interest
Component allocable to and the Note Interest Distributions in respect of a Note,are exempt from
personal income taxes of the State of California under present state law.
Pursuant to the Trust Agreement and in the Tax Certificate Pertaining to Arbitrage and
Other Matters under Sections 103 and 141-150 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, to be
delivered by the District in connection with the execution and delivery of the Notes, the District
will make representations relevant to the determination of, and will make certain covenants
regarding or affecting, the exclusion of the Interest Component and the Note Interest Distribution
from the gross income of the owners thereof for federal income tax purposes. In reaching the
opinions described in the immediately preceding paragraph, we have assumed the accuracy of
such representations and the present and future compliance by the District with such covenants.
52906807.6 F-I
Except as stated in the second preceding paragraph, we express no opinion as to any
federal or state tax consequence of the ownership or disposition of the Installment Purchase
Agreement or the Notes. Furthermore,we express no opinion as to any federal, state or local tax
law consequences with respect to the Installment Purchase Agreement, Notes, Interest
Component, or Note Interest Distributions, if any action is taken with respect to the Installment
Purchase Agreement, the Master Agreement, the Trust Agreement, the Notes or the proceeds
thereof,permitted or predicated on the advice or approval of counsel,if such advice or approval is
given by counsel other than us.
The rights of the owners of the Notes and the enforceability of the Notes, the Master Agreement,
the Trust Agreement and the Installment Purchase Agreement may be subject to bankruptcy, insolvency,
reorganization, moratorium and other similar laws affecting creditors' rights heretofore or hereafter
enacted and may also be subject to the exercise of judicial discretion in appropriate cases. The
enforceability of the Notes, the Master Agreement, the Trust Agreement and the Installment Purchase
Agreement is subject to the effect of general principles of equity, including, without limitation, concepts
of materiality, reasonableness, good faith and fair dealing, to the possible unavailability of specific
performance or injunctive relief,regardless of whether considered in a proceeding in equity or at law,and
to the limitations on legal remedies against governmental entities in California.
No opinion is expressed herein on the accuracy, completeness or fairness of the Official
Statement or other offering material relating to the Notes.
Our opinions are based on existing law, which is subject to change. Such opinions are further
based on our knowledge of facts as of the date hereof. We assume no duty to update or supplement our
opinions to reflect any facts or circumstances that may hereafter come to our attention or to reflect any
changes in any law that may hereafter occur or become effective. Moreover, our opinions are not a
guarantee of result; rather, such opinions represent our legal judgment based upon our review of existing
law that we deem relevant to such opinions and in reliance upon the representations and covenants

Agreement The District may at any time incur Reimbursement Obligations with respect to Subordinate
Obligations. Currently, there are no Subordinate Obligations outstanding. For a description of the
District's outstanding Senior Obligations, see "FINANCIAL OBLIGATIONS— Existing Indebtedness"

on all Obligations for such Fiscal Year. The District may make adjustments from time to time in such

discrepancies between the Certificate of Initial Purchaser and publicly available information relating to
trades of the Notes that might suggest that the initial sale of a substantial portion of the Notes to the
public was at a materially higher price than the price stated for that maturity in the Certificate of Initial
Purchaser.

considered if the bid is to purchase Notes at an aggregate price less than 100% or more than 104% of the
aggregate principal amount of the Notes.

bidder as substitute for payment in full of the purchase price. Bids that do not conform to the terms of

if the District elects to do so, to reflect the actual interest rate and any premium in the winning bid to
generate a dollar amount bid of at least$131,975,000 while maintaining the same "per Note"purchaser's
discount and original issue premium, if any, provided in such bid. Any such adjustment will be
communicated to the winning bidder within 24 hours after receipt of such bid by the District. Changes in
the principal amount of the Notes made as described in this paragraph will not affect the determination of
the winning bidder or give the winning bidder any right to reject the Notes.

federal funds wire transfer by the time stated, the District may draw upon the Surety Bond to satisfy the
successful bidder's Bid Security Deposit requirements.
Wire Transfers. Any Bid Security Deposit wire transfers must be received in federal funds prior

funds sent by wire transfer,except for any willful misconduct or reckless disregard for its duties.
If after the award of the Notes, the successful bidder fails to complete the purchase on the terms
stated in its bid,unless such failure of performance shall be caused by any act or omission of the District,
the Bid Security Deposit,whether paid by federal funds wire or pursuant to the Surety Bond procedure set
forth above, shall be retained by the District as stipulated liquidated damages. No interest will be paid
upon any Bid Security Deposit.
Official Statement
The District has approved a Preliminary Official Statement, dated September . 2013, which
the District has"deemed final"for purposes of Rule 15c2-12 promulgated by the Securities and Exchange
Commission, as amended (the "Rule"), although subject to revision, amendment and completion in
conformity with the Rule. The District will provide the successful bidder such reasonable number of
printed copies of the final Official Statement as such bidder may reasonably request no later than seven
business days after the day the Notes we awarded. Up to 50 copies of the that Official Statement will be

rates of the Municipal Securities Rulemaking Board.
Award,Delivery and Payment
If satisfactory bids are received, the Notes will be awarded to the highest responsible bidder not
later than two hours after the time established for the receipt of bids. The highest bidder shall be the
bidder submitting the best price for the Notes, which best price shall be that resulting in the lowest true
interest cost with respect to the Notes. The true interest cost shall be computed by doubling the semi-
annual interest rate(compounded semi-annually) necessary to discount the Installment Payment from the
Maturity Date to the date of the Notes and to the price bid. If two or more bidders have bid the same true
interest cost,the award shall be made at the sole discretion of the District

waive any irregularity or informality in any bid.
CUSIP Numbers

obligation for the assignment or printing of such numbers on the Notes or for the correctness of such
numbers, and neither the failure to print such number on any Note nor any error with respect thereto shall
constitute cause for a failure or refusal by the purchasers thereof to accept delivery of and make payment
for the Notes. The cost for the assignment of CUSIP numbers to the Notes will be the responsibility of
the successful bidder.
California Debt and Investment Advisory Commission
The successful bidder will be required to pay all fees due to the California Debt and Investment
Advisory Commission("CDIAC')under California law. CDIAC will invoice the successful bidder after
the delivery of the Notes.

Special Counsel to the effect that, in the opinion of Special Counsel, based upon an analysis of existing
laws,regulations,rulings and court decisions,and assuming,among other matters, the accuracy of certain
representations and compliance with certain covenants,the interest component of the Installment Payment
and the allocable portion thereof distributable in respect of each Note is excluded from gross income for
federal income tax purposes under section 103 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 and is not a specific
preference item for purposes of the federal alternative minimum tax and is exempt from State of

FROM: James D. Herberg, General Manager
Lorenzo Tyner, Director of Finance and Administrative Services
SUBJECT: IMPLEMENTATION OF ENFOTECH IPACS PRETREATMENT
INFORMATION MANAGEMENT SOFTWARE SYSTEM
GENERAL MANAGER'S RECOMMENDATION
A. Approve a Professional Services Agreement with enfoTech & Consulting, Inc.,
Specification CS-2012-52513D, for Implementation of a Commercial-off-the-shelf
Pretreatment Information Management System, for an amount not to exceed
$749,993; and
B. Approve first year technical support and maintenance for the amount of$65,266;
and
C. Approve a contingency of $81,526 (10%).
SUMMARY
The Pretreatment Information Management System is used by the Engineering and
Facilities Support Services departments to centrally manage the industrial waste control
and pretreatment program to ensure environmental compliance with operating permits.
The Orange County Sanitation District (OCSD) is replacing our existing legacy
pretreatment software solution with a commercial system (iPACS by enfoTech) that is
used by multiple large publically owned wastewater treatment facilities.
PRIOR COMMITTEE/BOARD ACTIONS
N/A
ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
On June 13, 2012, OCSD issued a Request for Proposal (RFP) to implement a
commercial-off-the-shelf Pretreatment Information Management System. The existing
system was built over the period of 20 years by multiple software developers using
contract and OCSD staff. At the time of inception, commercial products were not
available. In the past seven years, at least four major software vendors have products
specifically designed for the industrial waste control and pretreatment programs.
Page 1 of 4
EnfoTech's iPACS product has been successfully implemented in a number of
wastewater facilities including LA County Sanitation District, Metro Water Reclamation —
Chicago, New York City, City of San Jose, and City of Phoenix. The standard product
addresses core business processes. There are other functions that the OCSD
compliance programs address and may need to be added as optional parts of the
software solution. If the OCSD implementation team decides that the core functionality
requires these additional enhancements, then the contingency will be used to include
these options.
On July 12, 2012, two proposals were received. A panel consisting of seven OCSD
staff from Information Technology and Engineering reviewed and ranked each of the
proposals in accordance with District procedures. This RFP used the consensus
scoring method. During consensus scoring sessions, the evaluation facilitator directs
the team's attention to each item in the specifications. The evaluation team considers
one proposal at a time, comparing the vendor's proposed offering against the
specifications in the underlying RFP. Consensus scoring sessions encourage open
discussions and questions among members of the evaluation team.
Evaluators discuss the relative strengths and weaknesses of a vendor's proposal in
each area. The following criteria/weights were used to evaluate the proposals: Project
Implementation Work Plan (15a/%), Proposed Alternatives to Out of Scope Items (15%),
Software Functionality, Features, and Upgrade Roadmap (15%), Vendor Stability,
Experience, and Past Performance in Delivering Product to a Similar Utility (25%), and
Cost Evaluation (30%). The solution proposed by enfoTech & Consulting, Inc. was rated
higher than the Inflection Point Solutions proposed solution. Note that the Inflection
Point Solutions proposal did not include the Permit Fact Sheet system (approximately
$88,000) or system documentation. Staff recommends awarding the Professional
Services Agreement and maintenance agreement to enfoTech & Consulting, Inc. for a
not-to-exceed amount of$815,259.
OCSD's Pretreatment Program is extremely complex and therefore implementing a new
software system that replaces the existing functionality carries some risk. EnfoTech
was selected as it scored higher than the other vendor in several areas including
understanding the project requirements and software Flexibility. EnfoTech proposal met
more of OCSD requirements with no core product changes. Additionally, EnfoTech's
gap analysis provided appropriate solutions and alternatives for the remaining
functionality. The other vendor's solution was not clear and seemed to require a higher
degree of customization and subsequently could result in higher upgrade costs and total
cost of ownership.
EnfoTech's application is based in modern technologies (.NET and J2EE), is web based
and leverages reusable components. We believe this demonstrates that the application
is well-planned, robust and easier to maintain. The EnfoTech solution includes a
configurable interface that facilitates modification of the application to accommodate
changes to OCSD processes that can be initiated as a response to the periodic audits
conducted by regulators. A configurable application also facilitates support by OCSD
staff and requires less dependence on the vendor for configuration changes.
Conversely, the other proposed solution appears to be built with a legacy (at the end of
its lifecycle) technology that requires installation of the application on each user's
Page 2 of 4
workstation thereby requiring updates having to be applied to each
workstation. Furthermore, the company representatives did not have a defined plan or
schedule in place to update or modernize current product offering. The software
owners will likely be responsible for funding this major upgrade.
EnfoTech also has defined quality assurance practices that meet the Carnegie Mellon
Capability Maturity Model (CMMI) Level 3 practices. These development and
documentation processes demonstrate that the organization has standardized
procedures for developing and maintaining software and that has documented and
integrated their process with their engineering and management processes.
EnfoTech's development methodology seems to be better suited towards replacing
existing software with established business processes.
In conclusion, the modern application architecture, the flexible and robust features and
inclusion of a large percentage of requirements in the core product make the selection
of EnfoTech's proposal the better choice to replace OCSD's aging application.
OCSD's Pretreatment Program is substantially lower by selecting the enfoTech solution.
On September 16, 2013, OCSD negotiated a price reduction of$30,400 with enfoTech.

Information Item
SUMMARY
The first meeting of the Legislative and Public Affairs Special Committee was held on
September 9, 2013 at 8:00 a.m. The Committee will continue to meet the second
Monday of each month at 8 a.m. At the kickoff meeting several Committee directives
were established: committee purpose, committee objectives and goals, and staff
initiated deliverables.
The focus of the Special Committee will be to further define the role OCSD takes in
proactively dealing with state and federal legislation that may impact the district;
continuing to take an active role in ensuring the District's property tax revenue remains
protected from either state raids or county-wide redistribution; and engaging in an
education and outreach plan that promotes the District with local, state and federal
stakeholders.
The Committee also began the process of developing goals and objectives for the
upcoming year. These include but are not limited to the following: revising the current
OCSD legislative platform to more clearly define state and federal legislative goals and
best "advocacy" practices; potential development of videos to illustrate OCSD CIP
successes; development of a City/CIP matrix; development of a funding matrix;
development of an outreach and advocacy plan; development of a speaker's bureau for
interested members agencies. Additionally, the Committee discussed the concept of a
focused and effective re-branding of the District that focuses on areas of clean water,
green practices, and potential expansion of source water for GWRS.
Staff is preparing to bring back several pieces of information for the Committee's
consideration next month. These will include a funding matrix that identifies future
capital infrastructure projects and potential funding sources, a outreach and education
plan for the remainder of 2013, a revised legislative platform that includes best
practices, and concepts for District initiated legislation for 2014/2015.

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.
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.
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
farm land or further processed as an earth-like product for commercial and home gardens to improve
and maintain fertile soil and stimulate plant growth.
Capital Improvement Program (CIP) — Projects for repair, rehabilitation, and replacement of assets.
Also includes treatment improvements, additional capacity, and projects for the support facilities.
Coliform bacteria—A group of bacteria found in the intestines of humans and other animals, but also
occasionally found elsewhere used as indicators of sewage pollution. E. coli are the most common
bacteria in wastewater.
Collections system — In wastewater, it is the system of typically underground pipes that receive and
convey sanitary wastewater or storm water.
Certificate of Participation (COP) — A type of financing where an investor purchases a share of the
lease revenues of a program rather than the bond being secured by those revenues.
Contaminants of Potential Concern (CPC) — Pharmaceuticals, hormones, and other organic
wastewater contaminants.
Dilution to Threshold (DR) — the dilution at which the majority of the people detect the odor
becomes the D(f for that air sample.
Greenhouse gases — In the order of relative abundance water vapor, carbon dioxide, methane,
nitrous oxide, and ozone gases that are considered the cause of global warming ("greenhouse
effect').
Groundwater Replenishment (GWR) System — A joint water reclamation project that proactively
responds to Southern California's current and future water needs. This joint project between the
Orange County Water District and the Orange County Sanitation District provides 70 million gallons a
day of drinking quality water to replenish the local groundwater supply.
Levels of Service (LOS)—Goals to support environmental and public expectations for performance.
NOMA— N-Nitrosodimethylamine is an N-nitrosoamine suspected cancer-causing agent. It has been
found in the Groundwater Replenishment System process and is eliminated using hydrogen peroxide
with extra ultra-violet treatment.
National Biosolids Partnership (NBP) — An alliance of the National Association of Clean Water
Agencies (NACWA) and Water Environment Federation (WEF), with advisory support from the U.S.
Environmental Protection Agency (EPA). NBP is committed to developing and advancing
environmentally sound and sustainable biosolids management practices that go beyond regulatory
compliance and promote public participation in order to enhance the credibility of local agency
biosolids programs and improved communications that lead to public acceptance.
Plume—A visible or measurable concentration of discharge from a stationary source or fixed facility.
Publicly-owned Treatment Works (POTW)— Municipal wastewater treatment plant.
Santa Ana River Interceptor (SARI) Line — A regional brine line designed to convey 30 million
gallons per day (MGD) of non-reclaimable wastewater from the upper Santa Ana River basin to the
ocean for disposal, after treatment.
Sanitary sewer — Separate sewer systems specifically for the carrying of domestic and industrial
wastewater. Combined sewers carry both wastewater and urban run-off.
South Coast Air Quality Management District (SCAQMD) — Regional regulatory agency that
develops plans and regulations designed to achieve public health standards by reducing emissions
from business and industry.
Secondary treatment — Biological wastewater treatment, particularly the activated-sludge process,
where bacteria and other microorganisms consume dissolved nutrients in wastewater.
Sludge—Untreated solid material created by the treatment of wastewater.
Total suspended solids (TSS)—The amount of solids floating and in suspension in wastewater.
Trickling filter — A biological secondary treatment process in which bacteria and other
microorganisms, growing as slime on the surface of rocks or plastic media, consume nutrients in
wastewater as it trickles over them.
Urban runoff — Water from city streets and domestic properties that carry pollutants into the storm
drains, rivers, lakes, and oceans.
Wastewater—Any water that enters the sanitary sewer.
Watershed —A land area from which water drains to a particular water body. OCSD's service area is
in the Santa Ana River Watershed.
