ORANGE COUNTY SANITATION DISTRICT BUDGET UPDATE—FISCAL YEAR 2015-16
MESSAGE FROM THE GENERAL MANAGER
May 26, 2015
Honorable Chair and Board of Directors:
I am pleased to submit the Orange County Sanitation District's Fiscal Year
2015-2016 Operating and Capital Improvement Program Budget. This
document includes revisions to the second year of OCSD's two-year budget
and serves as a source of information for OCSD's Board of Directors, our
employees and our ratepayers.
The Sanitation District serves 2.5 million people and processes nearly 200
million gallons of wastewater each day with a budget of approximately
$470 million. This budget addresses rising treatment and chemical costs,
aging infrastructure, and increased regulatory requirements.
OCSD has transformed from a sanitation district treating, collecting and disposing of wastewater to a water
resource recovery facility looking to capture, recycle and reuse the products resulting from the wastewater
treatment process. Our agency, in partnership with the Orange County Water District, recycles nearly one-half
of the water produced by our treatment plants.
The solids produced as a part of the treatment process—known as biosolids—are recycled as a soil
amendment and compost for use on agricultural lands. Solids that 30 years ago were viewed as a waste are
now providing valuable nutrients to farm lands in Arizona and California.
Gas produced in our solids processing digesters is utilized as a biofuel to operate the engines in the Central
Generation facilities. These facilities produce about two-thirds of the electrical needs of our treatment plants.
In addition, we are using our facilities to manage urban runoff during dry weather that would otherwise flow
untreated in our coastal waters.
Recognizing the need for a reliable, affordable and high quality water supply, the Board of Directors has set
our vision to study the feasibility of recycling all of our water flow.
I would like to take this opportunity to highlight three important revisions to next year's budget:
• Operating Expense Cost Containment
Despite inflationary increases on many external costs such as chemicals, biosolids hauling, and utilities,
OCSD will minimize the impact on rate-payers by aggressively negotiating our contracts, ensuring a
competitive bidding environment, solid debt management and implementing efficiencies. The 2015-16
Operating Budget of approximately $152 million represents a 4 percent reduction from the previously
approved budget. Operating efficiencies such as the reduction of long-term liabilities, operational
improvements and general cost containment has allowed OCSD to reduce ongoing expenses and the need
for additional resources.
tY ORANGE COUNTY SANITATION DISTRICT I BUDGET UPDATE—FISCAL YEAR 2015-16
2015-16 BUDGET UPDATE
• Reduction in Long-term Liabilities
Many government agencies are faced with growing long-term liabilities, particularly in the area of pensions.
OCSD has been proactive in reducing our liability and has developed a plan to address this issue. By
making advanced payments, as I have included in this budget, OCSD will save tens of millions of dollars in
interest payments and reduce the payoff period of this liability by more than half.
• Rate Reduction
As a result, the efficiencies stated above and the Board's prudent decision to reduce its long-term liabilities,
OCSD is a strong financial position. As such, I am recommending that the 2015-16 Budget include a
reduction to the proposed rates for the next three fiscal years, reducing total increases by 35 percent.
This budget demonstrates our commitment to efficiency as it does not include any increases in staffing and
holds the line on operating costs.
OCSD will continue to provide wastewater treatment, sewer and facilities maintenance, ocean monitoring and
many other services while maintaining one of the lowest rates in the state and upholding an outstanding level
of service.
I believe this budget fully supports the goals included in OCSD's Strategic Plan and positions us well to
address the coming
w yeaar s. I look forward to a dynamic and productive year of leading the organization.

2015-16 Budget Update
CIP New Project Descriptions
Project Name&Number I Safety Improvement at Plant Nos.1 and 2 -J-126
Project Category Process Related Special Projects Project Budget: $1,708.000
Description
Planning study SP-145-1 provided a facility-wide assessment of the significant structural safety
issues(ladders,handrail,hatches,etc.)and identified over 1600 deficient safety items. About half
of the safety items will be addressed by OCSD's Maintenance department while some lower priority
items have been assigned to future CIP projects. This project will address the remaining items that
are either high priority or cannot be assigned to a future CIP project.
Justification
OCSD facilities have been constructed with varying compliance with safety codes.While the safety
issues created by the configurations may have a low probability of causing injury,the consequence
could be high in terms of injury and OCSD liability.The cost to mitigate these structural issues after
construction is high. Dealing with these issues on a case-by-case basis is not cost effective.OCSD
would benefit greatly by having consistent facilities-wide structural safety standards.
The project's construction cost is$835,492. The impacts to operational budgets have not yet been
determined.
Project Name&Number I Natural Gas Pipelines Replacement at Plant Nos. 1 and 2 -J-127
Project Category Utility Systems Project Budget: $1,310,000
Description
This project will rehabilitate the natural gas pipelines at Plants No 1 and 2.This includes the
replacement of aging metallic pipelines and risers and upgrades to the cathodic protection systems.
Justification
Recent condition assessments of the natural gas piping have revealed that some of the metallic
piping and risers have reached the end of their useful life and require replacement. The cathodic
protection systems will also be upgraded to provide corrosion control of the buried metallic piping.
This project will ensure safe,reliable operations of the natural gas systems.
The project's construction cost is$640,918. The impacts to operational budgets have not yet been
determined.

needs, manage risks associated with asset or system failure,take advantage of technology
advancements,comply with regulatory changes,and meet strategic goals.
This project will not have an impact on operational budgets.
Project Name&Number Primary Clarifiers Replacements and Improvements at Plant No.1 -Pl-
126
Project Category Primary Treatment Project Budget: $122,649,000
Description
This project will rehabilitate or replace the Plant No. 1 Primary Clarifiers 3,4,&5 System which
includes all primary influent and effluent lines,distribution boxes,junction boxes,the Primary
Effluent Pump Station,structural,mechanical,and electrical systems affiliated with Primary
Clanfers 3,4,&5.This project will demolish Primary Clarifiers 1U.
Justification
The project is needed due to the age and condition of the Primary Clarifiers(PCs)3,4,&5 System.
PCs 3&4 were constructed in 1956 and are the oldest primary clarifiers at Plant No. 1.They share a
common sludge and scum pumping facility located between them. PC 5 was constructed in 1963.
Many of the PC 3-5 System components are showing significant deterioration.To continue to
operate the PC 3-5 system for the next 50 years will require the entire system be rehabilitated or
replaced.
PCs 1-2 were constructed in 1986 to replace the two original clanfers.These primary clarifiers are
currently used only during extreme flow events.They share a common sludge and scum pumping
facility at the southwest end of PCs 1-2 that also serves PC S. PCs 1-2 shall be demolished to
make space for other future processes.
The project's construction cost is$73,640,660. The impacts to operational budgets have not yet
been determined.

Self-Funded Insurance Plans
SELF-FUNDED INSURANCE PLANS
The General Liability and Property program and the Workers' Compensation program provide for the District to be
partially self-insured for general liability and workers'compensation. The in-lieu premiums charged to the
operating divisions are the revenue source for these programs. Expenses primarily consist of settlement claims,
legal fees and excess loss insurance premiums. Ending Reserve Balances are projected at$57 million.
General Liability and Property
• The District's current excess general liability insurance coverage is$40 million per occurrence with an
annual aggregate limit and with a self-insured retention of$500,000.
• The District's current property insurance coverage is$1 billion for perils of fire and $300 million for perils of
flood,subject to a self-insured retention of$250,000. The District is partially self-insured for earthquake,
but does carry$25 million in coverage on seven key structures with a$5 million deductible. The District
also increased its sublimit for builders risk under the property insurance programs from$25 million to
$50 million to ensure upcoming construction projects are adequately covered.
• In order to maintain the reserve balance of$55 million for the General Liability and Property program,
appropriations for in-lieu premiums charged to operating divisions are recommended at$496,000 for
FY 2015-16.
Workers'Compensation
• The District's current excess workers'compensation coverage has unlimited statutory coverage per
occurrence and $4 million employer's liability per employee with a self-insured retention of$1 million per
person per occurrence.
• In order to maintain the reserve balance of$2 million for the Workers'Compensation program,
appropriations for in-lieu premiums charged to operating divisions are recommended at$1,478,700 for
FY 2015-16.
