Troy Edgar,Chairman of the Board James D.Herberg,General Manager Maria E.Ayala,Clerk ofthe Board BOARD OF DIRECTORS Meeting Date I TOBd.of Dir. — 02/26/14 AGENDA REPORT IemNumbe ItemNumbe fi Orange County Sanitation District FROM: James D. Herberg, General Manager Originator: Nick Kanetis, Director of Engineering SUBJECT: NEWPORT FORCE MAIN REHABILITATION, PROJECT NO. 5-60 GENERAL MANAGER'S RECOMMENDATION A. Approve a sole source agreement with Charles P. Crowley Co., for the purchase and installation support of pump station equipment to support Newport Force Main Rehabilitation, Project No. 5-60, for an amount not to exceed $340,000; and B. Approve a contingency of$34,000 (10%). SUMMARY As part of the Newport Force Main Rehabilitation, Project No. 5-60 (Force Main Project), one of the two force main pipelines connecting the Newport Beach Pump Station system will be removed from service for extended periods of time for rehabilitation. This will place added demands on the Bay Bridge Pump Station to be able to pump wet weather flows reliably during this interim condition estimated to last for two years. To mitigate risks regarding capacity and reliability during wet weather events, an additional pump will be added to this station to provide reliable pumping capacity. The new pump will be added to a system consisting of multiple existing pumps with a common discharge pipeline. As such, this new pump must match the existing pumps and have the same hydraulic pump characteristics to operate as a system. Charles P. Crowley Co. is the sole authorized company for the necessary pump. The pump package will include the pump, motor, variable frequency electric drive (VFD) and other mechanical appurtenances to assure compatibility with the pump, the geometry of the existing pump station and provide unit responsibility with the pump supplier. This package also includes startup and testing assistance necessary to commission the pump. This equipment is intended to be provided to the Contractor of the Force Main Project for installation. To have the reliability in-place prior to next year's winter season, timing of this purchase is critical to support the project's construction schedule. Page 1 of 2 Due to the critical schedule and long manufacture time of the equipment, this pre- purchase is being recommended separately from the Force Main Project's bid in order to mitigate schedule and cost risks associated with this procurement. The costs were reviewed and appear to be fair and reasonable for the equipment and services being provided. PRIOR COMMITTEE/BOARD ACTIONS None. ADDITIONAL INFORMATION The purpose of Project No. 5-60, Newport Force Main Rehabilitation, is to rehabilitate the Newport Force Main system located on Pacific Coast Highway in Newport Beach between Bitter Point Pump Station and Dover Drive. The project will use various rehabilitation methods, including cured-in-place pipe rehabilitation, open cut method replacement, and tunneling for replacement of pipe in difficult-to access locations. More than half of the force main system will be rehabilitated rather than replaced to minimize impacts to the community, businesses, tourism, and the environment. CEQA The Newport Force Main Rehabilitation, Project No. 5-60, is within the scope of the Program Environmental Impact Report (PEIR) for the Collection System Improvement Plan, SCH #2006101018, certified in August 2007. Pursuant to CEQA Guidelines section 15168(c)(4), the Orange County Sanitation District (Sanitation District) is preparing an addendum to the PEIR to cover the greenhouse gas emissions section which was not included in the original PEIR. BUDGET/DELEGATION OF AUTHORITY COMPLIANCE This request complies with authority levels of the Sanitation District's Delegation of Authority. This item has been budgeted (FY2013-14 Update, Page A-7, Item 24) and the budget is sufficient for the recommended action.

Page 1 of 3 SUMMARY The Landscaping and Miscellaneous Improvements along Ellis Ave Corridor, Project No. FE10-19, will provide landscaping improvements along the north perimeter of Plant No. 1, including installation of trees, groundcover, and associated irrigation. The landscaping improvements are focused on planting trees along the north perimeter of Orange County Sanitation District (Sanitation District) facilities for both visual and olfactory screening. The large eucalyptus trees that had been providing the screening were removed amid concerns that the trees were either diseased and decayed or prone to root impairment by construction of the north perimeter wall. In 2011, the City of Newport Beach inspected its eucalyptus trees for potential safety risks, resulting in the removal of more than one hundred trees. The Sanitation District also performed an inspection on the eucalyptus trees along Ellis Avenue. It was determined that dozens of eucalyptus trees posed a safety risk and these trees were removed. This project provides for new pine trees to take the place of the removed eucalyptus trees. The project also provides for the construction of storm drain improvements in the same area. This work was designed by RBF Consulting, Inc. and the design was completed in November 2013. The Sanitation District advertised for bids on November 19, 2013. Four sealed bids were received on January 7, 2014. The bids were evaluated in accordance with the Sanitation District policies and procedures. DO Systems, Inc., dba ACE CD, Inc., was deemed the lowest responsive, responsible bidder. Staff recommends awarding a construction contract to ACE CD, Inc. for Landscaping and Miscellaneous Improvements along Ellis Ave Corridor, Project No. FE10-19, for a total amount not to exceed $403,650. Summary information on the bid opening for the Landscaping and Miscellaneous Improvements along Ellis Ave Corridor, Project No. FE10-19, is as follows: Project Budget $998,545 Construction Contract Budget $505,000 Engineer's Estimate $475,000 Lowest Responsive, Responsible Bid $403,650 High Bid $510,000 Bidder Amount of Bid DO Systems, Inc. dba ACE CD, Inc. $403,650 C.S. Legacy Construction, Inc. $416,804 Green Building Corporation $436,000 STL Landscaping $510,000 Green Building Corporation, the third low bidder, filed an Award Protest dated January 27, 2014 alleging irregularities with the bid documents submitted by the two low bidders. Staff reviewed and considered in detail the matters raised in the Award Protest. Page 2 of 3 Staff determined that the protest did not merit a change to the award recommendation, and issued a formal Response to Award Protest on January 29, 2014. Lax & Stevens, law firm representing Green Building Corporation, filed an Appeal Letter dated February 4, 2014 contending Sanitation District's award protest determination. The Appeal Panel reviewed and considered in detail the matters raised in the Appeal Letter. The Appeal Panel determined that the appeal did not merit a change to the award recommendation, and issued a formal Response to Appeal on February 11, 2014. PRIOR COMMITTEE/BOARD ACTIONS None. ADDITIONAL INFORMATION None. CEQA A Notice of Exemption was filed and recorded on October 27, 2011. BUDGET/DELEGATION OF AUTHORITY COMPLIANCE This request complies with authority levels of the Sanitation District's Delegation of Authority.

C-EXA-071012 PROJECT NO.FE10-19 LANDSCAPING AND MISCELLANEOUS IMPROVEMENTS ALONG ELLIS AVENUE CORRIDOR CONFORMED Page 2 of 8 The failure of OCSD to deduct any of the above-identified sums from a progress payment shall not constitute a waiver of OCSD's right to such sums or to deduct them from a later progress payment. EXA-4 STOP PAYMENT NOTICE In addition to other amounts properly withheld under this article or under other provisions of the Contract, OCSD shall retain from progress payments otherwise due the CONTRACTOR an amount equal to one hundred twenty-five percent (125%)of the amount claimed under any stop payment notice under Civil Code§9350 at. seq. or other lien filed against the CONTRACTOR for labor, materials, supplies, equipment, and any other thing of value claimed to have been furnished to and/or incorporated into the Work; or for any other alleged contribution thereto. In addition to the foregoing and in accordance with Civil Code§9358 OCSD may also satisfy its duty to withhold funds for stop payment notices by refusing to release funds held in escrow pursuant to public receipt of a release of stop payment notice executed by a stop payment notice claimant, a slop payment notice release bond, an order of a court of competent jurisdiction, or other evidence satisfactory to OCSD that the CONTRACTOR has resolved such claim by settlement. EXA-5 PAYMENT TO SUBCONTRACTORS Requirements 1. The CONTRACTOR shall pay all Subcontractors for and on account of Work performed by such Subcontractors, not later than seven (7) days after receipt of each progress payment as required by the California Business and Professions Code §7108.5.

Prior to Final Acceptance, the CONTRACTOR shall prepare and submit an application for Final Payment to OCSD, including: a. The proposed total amount due the CONTRACTOR, segregated by items on the payment schedule, amendments, Change Orders, and other bases for payment; b. Deductions for prior progress payments; c.

For each and every claim that resulted in litigation or arbitration which the CONTRACTOR has settled, a conformed copy of the Request for Dismissal with prejudice or other satisfactory evidence the arbitration is resolved. 2. The application for Final Payment shall include complete and legally effective releases or waivers of liens and stop payment notices satisfactory to OCSD, arising out of or fled in connection with the Work. Prior progress payments shall be subject to correction in OCSD's review of the application for Final Payment. Claims filed with the application for Final Payment must be otherwise timely under the Contract and applicable law. 3. Within a reasonable time, OCSD will review the CONTRACTOR'S application for Final Payment. Any recommended changes or corrections will then be forwarded to the CONTRACTOR. Within ten (10) calendar days after receipt of recommended changes from OCSD, the CONTRACTOR will make the changes, or list Claims that will be filed as a result of the changes, and shall submit the revised application for Final Payment. Upon C-EXA-071012 PROJECT NO.FE10-19 LANDSCAPING AND MISCELLANEOUS IMPROVEMENTS ALONG ELLIS AVENUE CORRIDOR CONFORMED Page 4 of 8 acceptance by OCSD, the revised application for Final Payment will become the approved application for Final Payment. 4. If no Claims have been fled with the initial or any revised application for Final Payment, and no Claims remain unsettled within thirty (30) calendar days after Final Acceptance of the Work by OCSD, and agreements are reached on all issues regarding the application for Final Payment, OCSD, in exchange for an executed release, satisfactory in form and substance to OCSD, will pay the entire sum found due on the approved application for Final Payment, including the amount, if any, allowed on settled Claims. 5. The release from the CONTRACTOR shall be from any and all Claims arising under the Contract, except for Claims that with the concurrence of OCSD are specifically reserved, and shall release and waive all unreserved Claims against OCSD and its officers, directors, employees and authorized representatives. The release shall be accompanied by a certification by the CONTRACTOR that: a. It has resolved all Subcontractors, Suppliers and other Claims that are related to the settled Claims included in the Final Payment; b. It has no reason to believe that any party has a valid claim against the 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; d. The releases and the warranties shall survive Final Payment. 6. If any claims remain open, OCSD may make Final Payment subject to resolution of those claims. OCSD may withhold from the Final Payment an amount not to exceed one hundred fifty percent (150%)of the sum of the amounts of the open claims, and one hundred twenty-five percent (125%) of the amounts of open stop payment notices referred to in article entitled stop payment notices herein. 7. The CONTRACTOR shall provide an unconditional waiver and release on final payment from each Subcontractor and Supplier providing Work under the Contract(per Civil Code Section 8138) and an unconditional waiver and release on final payment on behalf of the CONTRACTOR (per Civil Code Section 8138)within thirty (30)days of receipt of Final Payment. EXA-8 DISCOVERY OF DEFICIENCIES BEFORE AND AFTER FINAL PAYMENT Notwithstanding OCSD's acceptance of the application for Final Payment and irrespective of whether it is before or after Final Payment has been made, OCSD shall not be precluded from subsequently showing that: 1. The true and correct amount payable for the Work is different from that previously accepted; C-EXA-071012 PROJECT NO.FE10-19 LANDSCAPING AND MISCELLANEOUS IMPROVEMENTS ALONG ELLIS AVENUE CORRIDOR CONFORMED Page 5 of 8 Return to Aaende Report 2. The previously-accepted Work did not in fact conform to the Contract requirements, or; 3. A previous payment or portion thereof for Work was improperly made. OCSD also shall not be stopped from demanding and recovering damages from the CONTRACTOR, as appropriate, under any of the foregoing circumstances as permitted under the Contract or applicable law.

Ace CD submitted the lowest bid at $403,750.00. GBC believes the bid of Ace CD is non- responsive,and we direct the Orange County Sanitation District's (District) attention to the items listed below. I. Failure to attach notarized acknowledgement standard form for all signatures on their Bid Bond. Bid package page 21 of 28, states the following: (Attach Acknowledgements here on Standard Form for each signature) Ace CD failed to notarize Danny Daher's signature on the bid bond. This omission should deem Ace CD's bid as non-responsive. II. Subcontractor Mask EDC is associated with Danny Daher,president of Ace CD. One of the subcontractors listed by Ace CD is Mask EDC, Inc. According to the personnel list posted by the California State License Board(CSLB)website,Danny Daher is the RMO of Ace CD, as well as the RMO of Mask EDC, Inc. GBC feels that listing a subcontractor who is represented by the same person gives ACE CD an unfair advantage, and makes their bid non-responsive. Attachment A(2 pages)to this bid protest letter is the personnel information page shown on CSLB for Mask EDC Inc, and Ace CD. 6913 Alcove Avenue.North Ho/Wood,CA 91605 Visit us at w gn enbuildingwgx nation.corn DCre . ^m. . - Green Building Corporation L RMLM Ell NG Lic8919867 -4-9 P-O- AI_l AlY -------------------------------------------T_el:_(81_8)_30_8_-6_4_3_5_F_a_x:_(_81_8_)_3_08_-_6_20_2__ -A. - B_ III. Phone numbers not listed for contacts provided by Ace CD. Page 6 and 7 of the bid package provided a table for the contractors to list their current and completed projects to demonstrate their experience requirements. The fourth column on this table requested the owner's name, address, phone no.,project manager, or project engineer. Ace CD failed to list any phone numbers for the contacts listed. In addition, only one of the projects listed by Ace CD has a dollar value higher than the value of this project. The project that has the higher dollar value was performed for Los Angeles Neighborhood Land Trust, which is a private non-profit organization, not a public owner as listed in the instructions on page 5 of the bid package. GBC feels that omission of the phone numbers by Ace CD is an attempt to preclude the District from calling and verifying their past experience. Attachment B (2 pages)to this letter is pages 6 and 7 of the bid package,where Ace CD fails to provide phone numbers for their references. IV. Safety Declaration of Contractor The third paragraph on Page 16A-2 states the following: "Failure to check"Yes"in either A. or B. below will render the Bid Non-Responsive and the bid shall be rejected." Page 16A-2 Accident Frequency A- oaks the contractor to acknowledge if they have an accident frequency level at or below 1.00 Ace CD responded by writing the word"No". Page 17A-2 Accident Frequency part B - asks the contractor to acknowledge if they have an accident frequency factor within 1.01 to 1.25. Ace CD responded by writing the word "No". Attachment C (2 pages)to this letter is page 16A-2 and 17A-2, where Ace CD fails to check yes to one of the two questions. Ace CD's inability to check"Yes"in either A or B as directed by the bid documents, is further evidence the bid submitted by Ace CD is non-responsive and should be rejected. GBC respectfully requests that after review of the above facts,the District reject the bid of Ace CD as nonresponsive. Should the District need any additional information I am available at (818)987-6059 or fred@greenbuildingcorporation.com. Additionally,this letter serves as Green Building Corporation's (GBC)award protest of C.S. Legacy Construction,Inc.'s(CS Legacy)bid for the above referenced public bid, which was held on January 7, 2014, at 11:00am. CS Legacy submitted the Zed lowest bid at$416,804.00. GBC believes the bid of CS Legacy is non-responsible/non-responsive. We direct the Orange County Sanitation District's (District) attention to the items listed below. 6913 Alcove Avenue.North Ho/Wood,CA 91605 Visit us at:w greenbulldingoogxuahon.wnt rDCre . ^�. . — Green Building Corporation ccN WALIP N 7 Lic#919867 Te1:(818)308-6435 Fax:(818)308-6202 I. BF4(B.1-B.6)Performance History and Financial Resources GBC believes that CS Legacy was not truthful in the answers provided in Section BF4,questions B.1-B.6 of their bid package. B.1 asked the contractor to acknowledge if the firm has had any contracts terminated prior to completion of the contract within the past 5 yews. CS Legacy responded by checking the box corresponding to the word"No". In April 2012, CS Legacy was awarded Contract#CO218010 to construct Chino Hills Entrance Road and Facilities. Attachment D (1 page)to this letter is the award notice for that project. In August 2013, a Solicitation for Offers was issued to obtain offers for the completion of Contract#CO218010. Attachment E(14 pages)to this letter is the Solicitation for Offers. According to the document, CS Legacy was terminated from the project before the contract work was complete. GBC believes that CS Legacy was not truthful in the answers provided in Section BF4 questions B.1 thin 13.4. Since it appears CS Legacy was not truthful in the answer to 13.1, it is unclear if they were also untruthful in their responses to B.2-13.4. B.2 -It is possible to surmise that LD's may have been assessed on a Contract where a contractor was terminated. B.3—The surety company was in charge of administration of the SFO, thus it is obvious that the Surety had to make payments. BA—It is unclear if CS Legacy has been prevented to bidding to anyone. However, it maybe in the interest of the District to confirm with the California State Park and Recreation if CS Legacy is prevented from bidding to them. II. Termination of Contract - San Bernardino Community College GBC has further evidence that CS Legacy was unresponsive and untruthful in their response to BF4 questions B.I thin BA. Attachment F (2 pages)to this bid protest letter is meeting minutes from a San Bernardino Community College District board meeting. During this meeting the Vice Chancellor recommends to the board to terminate the contract the District had with CS Legacy. GBC respectfully requests that after review of the above facts,the District reject the bid of CS Legacy and deem it nonresponsive and/or non-responsible because CS Legacy provided the district with false answers to the questions mentioned above. GBC was able to locate these two contract terminations for CS Legacy by doing extensive research on the internet.

OVERVIEW On December 13, 2012 the Board of Trustees approved a contract with CS Legacy Construction for the Valley College Voluntary ADA Upgrades Project. Article 14.3 of this contract's General Requirements stipulates that the District can terminate the contract "for convenience" (contractor not at fault). On April 5, 2013 the campus directed Kitchell/BRj/Seville (KBS) to terminate CS Legacy's contract for convenience, based on the following reasons. 1. CS Legacy did not provide, nor receive approval for, a Schedule of Values (SOV) for the various phases of construction as required by the General Conditions of the contract. 2. Absent the approved SOV, CS Legacy submitted invoices far exceeding the value of work performed, and was not willing to negotiate. 3. The concrete to be demolished in the project was thicker than indicated on the plans, requiring additional demolition. CS Legacy submitted change orders far exceeding the value of the additional demolition, and was not willing to negotiate. They preferred to file a claim and go into litigation. Because each phase of work included this additional demolition, the potential for significantly increasing the value of scope to be litigated or arbitrated was high. 4. The work is modular in nature and can be included in other projects, or in phases, and accomplished by other contracts. ANALYSIS Per the General Requirements, the contractor is to submit all invoices, receipts, and timesheets, or otherwise documented actual costs. The contractor is then required to add 10% for profit and overhead, as well as an additional 5%for termination costs, totaling the final payment. CS Legacy submitted their final payment request on May 9, detailing with back-up their accrued costs as of April 5. KBS analyzed the complete package for correctness, validation against certified payroll, labor and construction activities matching the daily reports and contractually approved expenditures and services. CS Legacy is representing accrued costs at the time of termination of $855,625.67. KBS was only able to verify $854,114.80 through a review of the backup provided. Of this $854,114.80, only $534,628.86 held up to the requirements of the contract language for approved expenditures and expenses.

FE10-19, LANDSCAPING AND MISCELLANEOUS IMPROVEMENTS ALONG ELLIS AVENUE Newport Beach J CORRIDOR Cron a ) Placentia The Orange County Sanitation District (OCSD) is in receipt of Green Building Santa Ana Corporation's (GBC) letter dated January 27, 2014, protesting OCSD's recommendation of award of the subject Project to the lowest, responsive, Seat Beach responsible Bidder, DO Systems, Inc. dba ACE CD, Inc. (ACE CD). This letter shall Mon serve as OCSD's response to GBC's protest. Tustin OCSD's responses to the corresponding items listed on GEC's protest are as follows: Ville Park Yorba Undo1. GBC alleges that ACE CD failed to notarize ACE CD's representative, Danny Daher's signature on the Bid Security (Bond) and this omission should deem County of Orange ACE CD's Bid as non-responsive. The omission of the notary acknowledgment Costa _ of ACE CD's representative's signature did not make its Bond invalid. Staff Sanitary District was able to verify ACE CD's representative's signature using the form BF-13 NOTARY ENDORSEMENT submitted with their Bid. OCSD determined that Midway City this omission is a minor irregularity, and is therefore waivable and curable, Sanitary District because OCSD has received the notarized signature. WaterI"Ine Ranch District 2. GBC alleged that the President of ACE CD, Danny Daher's association with its listed Subcontractor, Mask EDC, has given ACE CD an unfair advantage, which makes their bid non-responsive. Please note that the CSLB printout included in GBC's award protest letter lists a Disassociation Date of Danny Daher from Mask EDC in October 1, 2011. Based on this information, Danny Daher has not been an RMO of Mask EDC since 2011. Furthermore, OCSD is not aware of any legal authority upon which GBC bases its allegation that a general contractor cannot use a sister or subsidiary company as their Subcontractor. Invitation For Bid (IFB) requirement doesn't preclude Bidders from performing 100% of the work themselves. OCSD determined that such an arrangement, had one existed (which is not the case here), did not give ACE CD an advantage or benefit not allowed other Bidders. We protect public health and the environment by providing effective wastewater collection, treatment, and recyling. t� , 14 Fred Heidarian Page 2 of 3 January 29, 2014 3. GBC alleges that ACE CD's omission of the phone numbers of its references is an attempt to preclude OCSD from calling and verifying their past experience. Although ACE CD omitted the phone numbers of its references, they included the owner's name, address, project manager or project engineer which substantially meets the requirements of the Invitation For Bid (IFB). The information provided by ACE CD was sufficient and did not preclude OCSD from obtaining the required phone contact information. Therefore, OCSD determined that this omission is a minor irregularity, and is waivable and curable since ACE CD substantially met the IFB requirements. GBC also alleges that only one of the projects listed by ACE CD has a dollar value higher than the value of this Project and it was performed for Los Angeles Neighborhood Land Trust (LANLT), which is a private non-profit organization, not a public owner. As part of the bid evaluation process, OCSD Staff conducted reference checks of the completed projects listed by ACE CD. Based on the response from LANLT, OCSD Staff was able to verify that the project performed by ACE CD with LANLT is a public works project. All of ACE CD's references met the requirements of the IFB. Therefore OCSD Staff determined the bid submitted by ACE CD met the requirement of having completed at least 5 similar projects and provided evidence of its ability to complete public works projects as required. OCSD further determined that ACE CD has demonstrated the availability of financing, equipment, facilities, experience and personnel to be able to successfully complete the subject Project. 4. GBC alleges that ACE CD's failure on BF-6 SAFETY DECLARATION OF CONTRACTOR (BF-6), Item 2 to check "Yes" on either A or B should deem ACE CD's Bid as non-responsive. Based on OCSD's evaluation of ACE CD's Bid, the information referenced above can be verified by using ACE CD's calculation provided in the Accident Frequency Factor Calculation Table on the last page of their BF-6 form, which is a factor of V. Furthermore, OCSD was able to confirm ACE CD's Accident Frequency Factor by using their submitted CALIOSHA 300/300A Logs and the information available on the Bureau of Labor Statistics website. Therefore, OCSD Staff determined that ACE CD's omission to check "Yes" on either A or B is inconsequential and does not affect the Bid Price. ACE CD's Bid provided the answer to the qualification question and showed that ACE CD is qualified. SV 6 HI 1 t N9 9 Wx F t !a Fred Heidarian Page 3 of 3 January 29, 2014 Please note that the IFB, Part 2 INSTRUCTIONS TO BIDDERS, IB-18 OCSD RIGHTS, describes in part that OCSD may require confirmation of information furnished by the Bidder, and waive any errors or informalities in any Bid, to the extent permitted by law. Based on the above determinations, OCSD hereby denies GBC's award protest. OCSD Staff will proceed with its recommendation to the Board of Directors to award the contract of Project No. FE10-19 to the lowest, responsive and responsible Bidder, ACE CD. Staff will present its recommendation at OCSD's Board of Directors meeting on February 26, 2014, In regards to GBC's award protest pertaining to the second lowest bidder, C.S. Legacy, Inc.'s Bid, OCSD determined that the protest is irrelevant and a response is not necessary since the staffs recommendation is to award the contract to the lowest, responsive and responsible Bidder, ACE CD.

Dear Mr. Lapus: This office represents Green Building Corporation in connection with the protest of bids for this project. I have reviewed your letter of January 29, 2014 denying the protest by Green. Without conceding any of the four grounds discussed in your letter, item 1 is clearly an issue that renders the bid of ACE CD non-responsive. Item I concerns failure of ACE CD to provide notarization of the signatures on the bid bond. Without notarization the bid.is non-responsive. This omission may also affect the potential responsibility of the surety. The result could be ACE CD would have the option of withdrawing its bid without incurring an indemnity obligation to the surety. Such a situation would allow ACE CD to walk away from its bid. A situation that allows a bidder the option of avoiding its bid after getting a look at all the other bids is not waiveable as it gives that bidder a competition advantage. The deviation from the bidding requirements would have given ACE CD a competitive advantage. Therefore, it is non-responsive and the deficiency cannot be waived. Konica Business Machines v.

To: Mr. Ludwig R. Lapus Contracts Administrator Orange County Sanitation District 10844 Ellis Avenue Fountain Valley, CA 92708 Dear Mr. Lapus, I understand that Green Building was the third lowest bidder, but what I do not understand is his letter of protest and the logic behind it. In the letter of protest from Lax 8 Stevens Law Corporation under item 1 and I quote. "Without notarization the bid is non- responsive. This omission may also affect the potential responsibility of the surety. The result could be ACE CD would have the option of withdrawing its bid without incurring and indemnity obligation to the surety. Such a situation would allow ACE CD to walk away from its bid. A situation that allows a bidder the option of avoiding its bid after getting a look at all other bids is not waiveable as it gives that bidder a competition advantage." The intent of withdrawing the bid was never in place and or part of my effort to secure work for my firm. I would also add that the option of withdrawing a bid is always available and to all bidders. As you may know, technical errors are commonly used to withdraw bids without obligations to both surety and owners. As a result the competition advantage referred to above is invalid and null. The competitive advantage is in the actual bidding process and the sealed bid submittal process. The numbers speaks for themselves $403 first bidder, $416 Second bidder and $436 third bidder "Green Building". The bid document submitted by ACE CD INC, followed all the requested information and signatures. Danny Daher's Notarized signature can be found on page 26 "BF-13".

This letter shall serve as OCSD's response to GBC's Seal Beach appeal. The undersigned serve as OCSD's appeals panel. Stanton I The appeal is based upon DID Systems, Inc. dba ACE CD, Inc.'s (ACE CD)failure to Tustin provide notarization of the signatures on its bid bond. Lax contends that without the Villa Park notarization of the bid bond, ACE CD's bid is non responsive. Yorba Linda OCSD's appeals panel has reviewed the appeal in detail and provides the following determination. couneyoforange casto Mass For the purpose of clarification, ACE CD's bid bond submitted with its bid was Sanitary District executed by ACE CD's authorized representative. ACE CD's surety, Contractors Bonding and Insurance Company's authorized representative executed the bid bond Midway City as well. In addition, the signature of Contractors Bonding and Insurance Company's Sanitary District authorized representative was duly acknowledged and accompanied by Contractors Irvine Ranch Bonding and Insurance Company's power of attorney. The bid bond is effective and WaterDistinct enforceable. OCSD merely accepted the notary acknowledgement for the signature of ACE CD's authorized representative after the bids were opened. This action on OCSD's part did not create an opportunity for ACE CD to reconsider its bid. Furthermore, OCSD's action of obtaining the notary acknowledgement of �aPPEt "N1'"'0,. ACE CD's authorized representative's signature on the bid bond did not give ACE CD an unfair advantage over other bidders.

Herberg, General Manager Originator: Nick Arhontes, P.E., Director of Facilities Support Services SUBJECT: REPLACEMENT OF VALVES AT BAY BRIDGE VALVE VAULT, PROJECT NO. FR10-018 GENERAL MANAGER'S RECOMMENDATION A. Authorize the General Manager to competitively bid and subsequently award a contract to the lowest responsive and responsible bidder, for the Replacement of Valves at Bay Bridge Valve Vault, Project No. FR10-018, for an amount not to exceed $170,000; and B. Approve a contingency of$34,000 (20%). SUMMARY The Orange County Sanitation District (OCSD) is planning to rehabilitate the Newport Force Mains located within Pacific Coast Highway pursuant to Contract No. 5-60 (Newport Force Main Rehabilitation Project). This project is currently scheduled to commence late spring 2014. The valve replacements must be completed ahead of Contract No. 5-60. The Bay Bridge Valve Vault is located on the south side of West Pacific Coast Highway between Bayshore Drive and Newport Bay in the City of Newport Beach. The work covered under this contract will replace four 24-inch knife valves within the Bay Bridge Valve Vault. These valves are over 20 years old, at the end of useful life, and leak when closed. The Bay Bridge Valve Vault is a confined space and requires confined space safety measures be included in the work. In addition, the work includes temporary sewage bypass, removal of sewage from the force mains, as well as other associated work. PRIOR COMMITTEE/BOARD ACTIONS None ADDITIONAL INFORMATION OCSD is planning to advertise the Bay Bridge Valve Vault, Project No. FR10-018 final plans and specifications in February 2014 and open bids in March 2014. The bids will be evaluated in accordance with the OCSD's policies and procedures, and awarded to the lowest responsive and responsible bidder. OCSD's project schedule is estimated at Page 1 of 2 45 calendar days after the "notice to proceed" has been issued. At this time, it is expected to be completed by May 30, 2014. The Bay Bridge Valve Vault structure was constructed in 1981 and is located next to the Newport Bay. The salt air environment has caused significant corrosion to the structure over the past 33 years. The four valves located within the structure have not been replaced to date. OCSD has pre-purchased four valves in anticipation of this required maintenance work. The OCSD supplied valves will be provided to the contactor that is awarded this contract, and the contractor will be required to install the valves pursuant to the plans and specifications prepared by OCSD. A delay in the Bay Bridge Valve Vault Project will delay Contract No. 5-60. A delay in Contract No 5-60 will delay a Caltrans Street Project that starts in the summer of 2016. As a result, it is imperative that the Bay Bridge Valve Vault Project is completed prior to the beginning of summer 2014. CECIA Notice of Exemption filed with the County of Orange on November 27, 2013. BUDGET/DELEGATION OF AUTHORITY COMPLIANCE This request complies with authority levels of the Sanitation District's Delegation of Authority (Ordinance Article 7, Section 7.01 (B). This repair will be funded through the Small Capital Replacement/Rehabilitation Project - SP-34 (Budget Update Fiscal Year 2012-2013 and 2013-2014 Misc. & Support Projects; Section 8— Page 111). This Small Capital fund is used to pay for capital repairs and/or direct replacements. The SP-34 budget is adequate to cover this project.

Herberg, General Manager Originator: Ed Torres, P.E., Director of Operations & Maintenance SUBJECT: ELECTRICAL RELAY TESTING AND CALIBRATION SPECIFICATION NO. S-2013-574-R2 GENERAL MANAGER'S RECOMMENDATION A. Award a contract to the lowest responsive and responsible bidder, Power Testing and Energization, for Electrical Relay Testing and Calibration, Specification No. S-2013-574-R2, for a total amount not to exceed $296,990; and B. Approve a contingency of$59,000 (20%). SUMMARY This Contract will provide electrical testing services for testing all of the electrical protective relays at Plant No's 1 and 2. The Orange County Sanitation District (Sanitation District) Electrical Maintenance Division is required by safety regulations to periodically test these devices to ensure that they will function correctly when an electrical problem arises. The Sanitation District advertised for bids for electrical relay testing and calibration on Nov 1, 2013. Four sealed bids were received on December 12, 2013. The bids were evaluated in accordance with the Sanitation District's policies and procedures. Power Testing and Energization was deemed the lowest responsive, responsible bidder. Staff recommends awarding a contract to Power Testing and Energization for Electrical Relay Testing and Calibration Specification No. S-2013-574-R2, for a total amount not to exceed $296,990. The estimated duration of this project is 480 calendar days. A 20% contingency is being proposed since the activities of the contractor has the potential to disrupt on-going treatment processes and possibly delaying the contractor to wait for low flow or more favorable conditions to de-energize equipment. Page 1 of 2 Summary information on the bid opening for Electrical Relay Testing and Calibration Specification No. S-2013-574-R2 is as follows: Bidder Amount of Bid Power Testing and Energization $ 296,990 Southwest Energy Systems, LLC $ 489,010 VISTAM, Inc. $ 493,380 Hampton Tedder Technical Services $ 1,046,830 PRIOR COMMITTEE/BOARD ACTIONS None. ADDITIONAL INFORMATION Electrical Relays are protective devices that serve as the watchdogs in an electrical power system. These devices are designed to continuously monitor electrical circuits for problems (like short circuits) over the decades-long lifespan of the equipment. Yet if a problem arises at any time, those same devices must swiftly trip circuit breakers in split-seconds to prevent injury to personnel and reduce damage to equipment. It is therefore necessary to periodically test the devices to ensure that they will work when required. CEQA A Notice of Exemption was filed for this work. The work is categorically exempt from CEQA under section 15301 Existing Facilities, class 1 (b) — repair and maintenance of existing facilities of both investor and publicly owned utilities used to provide electric power, natural gas, sewerage, or other public utility services.

Herberg, General Manager Originator: Lorenzo Tyner, Director of Finance and Administrative Services SUBJECT: REQUEST FOR PROPOSAL FOR INVESTMENT MANAGEMENT GENERAL MANAGER'S RECOMMENDATION A. Advertise a request for proposal for managing the District's Investment Program that includes making the investment decisions and execution of the investment transactions; and B. Advertise a request for proposal for an investment advisor to assist with the selection process of an investment management firm in an amount not to exceed $40,000. SUMMARY The District has utilized Pacific Investment Management Company (PIMCO) to manage the District's investment portfolio since September 1995. Services include making investment decisions, completing investment transactions, and reporting investment results in accordance with the District's investment policy. As the Sanitation District has used the same investment manager for several years, staff believes that it would be prudent to re-evaluate the availability of these services in today's open market, from both a cost and a performance basis, and to conduct a competitive request for proposal process for these services. PRIOR COMMITTEE/BOARD ACTIONS September 1995— The Board awarded PIMCO to serve as the District's Investment Manager. ADDITIONAL INFORMATION PIMCO fees for service are equal to 15 basis points (0.15%) of the annual average investment balance, calculated and billed quarterly. These fees average approximately $645,000 a year for the current portfolio size of $430 million and are recorded by the District as a reduction of interest revenue.

SUMMARY The Administration Committee establishes the Budget Assumptions and approves the Budget Calendar in the development of the District's two-year budget. Staff will make a brief presentation at the Committee meeting. PRIOR COMMITTEE/BOARD ACTIONS None. ADDITIONAL INFORMATION Currently, there are no proposed changes to the Sanitation District Fiscal Policy. The Fiscal Policy is published in the FY 2012-13 and 2013-14 Budget document (Section 3, Pages 1-8), and is available on the Sanitation District's website. ATTACHMENTS The following attachment(s) am attached in hard copy and may be viewed on-line at the OCSD website (mm w.ocsd.coml with the complete agenda package and attachments: • Preliminary Budget Assumptions (Page 2-6) • Budget Update Calendar (Pages 7-10) Page 1 of 10 Return b Mende Report FY 2013-14 & 2014-15 Preliminary Budget Assumptions Economic Assumptions • Inflation for Orange County in FY 2014-15 is projected to be 2.3 percent based on the 2014 projected percentage change in consumer price index obtained from the November 2013 Economic and Business Review report prepared by Chapman University. A 2.3 percent inflation factor will also be used for 2015-16. Revenue Assumptions • A five-year Sewer Service Fee Rate Schedule was approved by the Board in March 2013. • The single-family residence (SFR) rate will increase 2.6% to $316 in FY 2014- 15. For FY 2015-16, the single-family residence (SFR) rate will increase an additional 2.2% to $323. • Note that each $1 increase in the SFR rate generates approximately $900,000 per year. • The capital facilities capacity charge (CFCC) fee captures only those infrastructure costs that relate to additional capacity. Other infrastructure costs such as improved treatment, rehabilitation, refurbishment, and replacement, will be supported through user fees. • Given the new Facilities Master Plan adopted in December 2009, a new rate study was completed in April 2010 to ensure that the CFCC fee methodology remains equitable and to confirm that an appropriate share of system costs would be recovered from new development. • Revenues will be budgeted to reflect little growth in Equivalent Dwelling Unit (EDU) connections that have remained flat over the past five years. • Permit user rates for flow, Biochemical Oxygen Demand (BOD) and Total Suspended Solids (TSS)will follow the most recent Rate Study. • Annexation fees capture both the net current assets and the equivalent property tax allocations totaling $4,235 per acre. • Annexable property in the District's service area sphere is minimal; consequently, no FY 2014-15 income from annexation fees is anticipated. • Property tax revenues of $64,025,000 are preliminarily estimated to increase by approximately 5%from FY 2013-14. A 2% annual increase in Assessed Value is authorized by the state constitution and is included in the increases noted above. The additional increase in assessed value is from authorized increases to market value when property is sold at a higher value. Page 2 Return b Mende Report FY 2013-14 & 2014-15 Preliminary Budget Assumptions • Earnings on the investment of the District's operating cash and reserves will be budgeted at 1.0% of the average cash and investment balance projected for the fiscal year. • No additional debt issuance is scheduled for FY 2014-15 or FY 2015-16. Operating Assumptions • Dry weather urban run off up to 10 mgd will continue to be treated at no charge. • Operating expenses are expected to approximate the adopted FY 2013-14 budget of$153.4 million. • All secondary treatment facilities are completed and fully operational. • Average daily flows are projected to remain steady at 200 mgd for FY 2014-15 and FY 2015-16. This projection reflects an expectation that increased economic activity and urban runoff will be offset by effects of conservation and minimal rainfall, resulting in no overall increase in the average daily flow. The FY 2014-15 flow projection of 200 mgd reflects no change from the actual for the first 5 months of the current year and the final actual flow for FY 2012-13. Employee/Staffing Assumptions • Staffing level is expected to remain flat. The total FY 2013-14 authorization level is 626.00 FTEs. • Vacant positions as of 12/31/13 are budgeted at 50% of step 1 for the remainder of FY 2013-14 and at 100% of step 2 for FY 2014-15. • New positions will be projected at 100% of step 1 for FY 2014-15. • A 3% vacancy factor on authorized positions has been budgeted for FY 2014- 15. The actual vacancy factor for 2012-13 was 5.6%. This vacancy factor accounts for time spent for recruitment and turnover. • The Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) for the Supervisor and Professional (SPMT) group expired June 30, 2013. Pending the completion of the negotiation process, no salary adjustments will be included in the budget for COLA for periods beyond the expiration of the current MOU. • The MOUs for both OCEA and Local 501 will expire June 30, 2014. Pending the completion of the negotiation process, no salary adjustments Page 3 Return b Mende Report FY 2013-14 & 2014-15 Preliminary Budget Assumptions will be included in the budget for COLA for periods beyond the expiration of the current MOUs. • Retirement costs for employees enrolled in OCERS Plans G and H are estimated at a rate of 41.98% of the employee's base salary for FY 2014- 15 and FY 2015-16, up from 35.45% in FY 2013-14. The rates for Plans G and H include the District's pickup of 3.5% of employees' required contributions. Employees enrolled in OCERS Plan B are estimated at a rate of 36.62% of the employee's base salary for FY 2014-15 and FY 2015-16, up from 30.77% in FY 2013-14. All employees hired on or after January 1, 2013 are enrolled in OCERS Plan U and are estimated at a rate of 34.98% for FY 2014-15 and FY 2015-16, up from 29.36% in FY 2013-14. Interns are not enrolled in OCERS so their retirement benefits are calculated at 6.2% (FICA rate). • Other employee benefits and insurances will be budgeted to increase each year by moderate but yet to be determined amounts. Materials, Supplies, & Services Assumptions • The proposed operating budget will continue to reflect an emphasis on safety, technical, and management training. The proposed FY 2014-15 budget will include a budget for training based on recent actual costs and identified needs rather than on a percentage of regular salaries and wages. • An amount equal to half of one percent of the Operating materials and services budget will be a contingency for prior year re-appropriations. Since the current year's budget lapses on June 30, a contingency is needed in the succeeding budget year for goods or services ordered at the end of one budget year but not delivered until the following year. • An amount equal to one half of one percent of the Operating materials and services budget will be the General Manager's contingency budget. These funds will be allocated to appropriate line items during the year after requests and justifications for unanticipated needs are approved by the General Manager. • Resource needs for strategic initiatives will be included in the budget. Capital Improvement Program Assumptions • The FY 2014-15 and 2015-16 cash flow budgets, based on the most current Validated Capital Improvement Program (CIP), is the target. • The baseline CIP cash flow for FY 2014-15 is $205 million and for FY 2015- 16 is $183 million. Page 4 Return b Mende Report FY 2013-14 & 2014-15 Preliminary Budget Assumptions • Continual evaluation of the CIP by the Asset Management Team may result in deferral or reduction of some projects and a resultant increase in O&M repair costs for materials and services, if the net cash flow impact is a decrease. • The FY 2014-15 and 2015-16 CIP budget will only increase for critical projects which were not previously identified in the Strategic Plan Update. • For the first five months of FY 2013-14, $36.2 million of the $141.6 million CIP budget, approximately 25.6%, was expended. Debt Financing • The District will issue new debt in the form of Certificates of Participation (COP) as needed to fund the CIP and to maintain reserves. • No additional debt issuance is scheduled for FY 2014-15 and FY 2015-16. • Debt will only be used for CIP and capital expenses, not for operating expenses. • Capital financing plans which include fewer future borrowings and higher user fees after FY 2015-16 will be considered. • Borrowing is proposed only for facilities which do not add capacity and that are funded by all users for replacement, rehabilitation, and improved treatment. Reserve Assumptions • The current reserve policy was reviewed by Public Resources Advisory Group and the Board during FY 2003-04. No changes were proposed and direction was given to continue to maintain reserve levels at a level that is adequate to offset exposure to variable rate COPS due to interest rate increases. • The current reserve policy is summarized as follows: ► A cash flow reserve will be established to fund operations, maintenance and certificates of participation expenses for the first half of the fiscal year, prior to 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 will be established as the sum of an amount equal to six months operations and maintenance expenses and the total of the annual debt (COP) service payments due in August each year. ► An operating contingency reserve will be established to provide for non- recurring expenditures that were not anticipated when the annual budget and sewer service fees were considered and adopted. The level of this Page 5 Return b Mende Report FY 2013-14 & 2014-15 Preliminary Budget Assumptions reserve will be established at an amount equal to ten percent of the annual operating budget. ► A capital improvement reserve will be maintained to fund annual increments of the capital improvement program. The long-term target is for one half of the capital improvement program to be funded from borrowing and for one half to be funded from current revenues and reserves. With this program in mind, the target level of this reserve has been established at one-half of the average annual capital improvement program through the year 2020. ► Catastrophic loss, or self-insurance, reserves will be maintained for property damage including fire, flood and earthquake, for general liability and for workers' compensation. These reserves are intended to work with purchased insurance policies, FEMA disaster reimbursements and State disaster reimbursements. The potential infrastructure loss from a major earthquake, of which the District currently has no outside insurance coverage, has been estimated to be as high as $1.3 billion. The level of this reserve has been set at $57 million should such a catastrophic event occur. This reserve amount will assist the District with any short-term funding needs until Federal and State assistance becomes available. ► Accumulated capital funds will be set aside for certain specific, short-term capital improvements as the need and availability arise. ► A capital replacement/renewal reserve policy has been established to provide thirty percent of the funding to replace or refurbish the current collection, treatment and disposal facilities at the end of their useful economic lives. Based on the FY 2011-12 Asset Management Plan, the current replacement value of these facilities is estimated to be $3.14 billion for the collection facilities and $3.12 billion for the treatment and disposal facilities. The initial reserve level has been established at $50 million, which will be augmented by interest earnings and a small portion of the annual sewer user fee, in order to meet projected needs through the year 2030. ► Provisions of the various certificates of participation (COP) issues require debt service reserves to be under the control of the Trustee for that issue. These reserve funds are not available for the general needs of the District and must be maintained at specified levels. The current level of required COP service reserves is projected to be $214.5 million. ► Accumulated funds exceeding the levels specified by District policy will be maintained in a rate stabilization fund. These funds will be applied to future years' needs in order to maintain rates or to moderate annual fluctuations. There is no established target for this reserve.

Page 10 OPERATIONS COMMITTEE Neetlng Date TOBA.Of Dir. OV05114 02/26/14 AGENDA REPORT Item Number Item Numbe 5 14 Orange County Sanitation District FROM: James D. Herberg, General Manager Originators: Nick Arhontes, Director of Facilities Support Services, and Lorenzo Tyner, Director of Finance and Administrative Services SUBJECT: TRANSFER OF LOCAL SEWERS IN SERVICE AREA 7 GENERAL MANAGER'S RECOMMENDATION A. Approve agreement with East Orange County Water District (EOCWD), to transfer ownership of local sewers in Service Area 7, and the appropriate reserve balances; and B. Authorize the General Manager to provide EOCWD with technical and financial information to assist with its submittal of a reorganization application to the Orange County Local Area Formation Commission (OC LAFCO) to facilitate the transfer of ownership of the local sewers and agreed assets; and C. Authorize the General Manager to draft and execute a letter of support to OC LAFCO in favor of EOCWD's reorganization application, subject to and contingent upon OC LAFCO's acceptance of the terms and conditions of transfer agreed upon by OCSD and EOCWD; and D. Approve an agreement with EOCWD to reimburse OCSD for staff support requested during an agreed transition period. SUMMARY OCSD currently owns and operates 174 miles of local sewers in Service Area 7, located in the City of Tustin and unincorporated county areas north of Tustin, including the El Modena islands. Our Strategic Plan includes an initiative to transfer these local sewers to a local (retail) agency. In 2013 the City of Tustin asked for and was granted additional time to consider accepting the transfer of all the local sewers in Service Area 7. After the City indicated that it was no longer interested in obtaining local facilities, EOCWD expressed its interest in acquiring 100% of the local sewers from OCSD and requested information on the local sewer system. The proposed transfer of ownership of the local sewers will require an OC LAFCO- approved reorganization because the boundaries of Service Area 7 cover several jurisdictions. EOCWD staff will seek authorization from its Board in February to initiate the OC LAFCO process. OC LAFCO's estimated timeline (attached) shows that the Page 1 of 3 overall process will take approximately nine months to conclude. Assuming a February filing date, the reorganization process should be completed in November 2014. PRIOR COMMITTEE/BOARD ACTIONS February 2014 - Operations Committee and Administration Committee approved this item. November 2013 - Five Year Strategic Plan and prior OCSD Strategic Plans support the transfer. ADDITIONAL INFORMATION Retail or local sewer agencies collect wastewater from residential, commercial and industrial properties through local sewer lines. Each city or special district providing local service has established its own local sewer fee depending on its site specific costs to own, manage, operate and maintain its local wastewater collection system. Parts of Tustin and unincorporated areas of the County are owned, operated and serviced entirely by OCSD. The cost of the local sewerage system is apportioned to each property owner based on the amount of the average wastewater discharged from that type of parcel. The Area 7 local sewer service fees currently collected by OCSD are based upon financial and engineering studies and reports. The annual single-family residential (SFR) user rate is $216 and the multi-family residential (MFR) use per apartment unit is $151.20. These fees have been set to support annual operating expenses and to build a reserve for future capital costs. The current reserve balance is $25 million, however; that amount will change depending on the date of recordation of the transfer. OCSD proposes to transfer these reserves to EOCWD following its assumption of ownership for the Area 7 local sewers. The proposed transfer agreement will be essentially cost/revenue neutral to OCSD. The fees currently collected by OCSD for local sewer service will be collected by EOCWD. EOCWD will assume responsibility for all maintenance costs, as well as capital improvement and replacement costs. The assets included in the proposed transfer serve approximately 18,000 parcels. The entire local sewer system is comprised of gravity sewers ranging between 4 and 27 inches in diameter, however the vast majority of the assets are 8-inch Vitrified Clay Pipe (VCP). There are no pumping facilities. CEOA N/A BUDGET / DELEGATION OF AUTHORITY COMPLIANCE Page 2 of 3 This request complies with authority levels of the Sanitation District's Delegation of Authority.

OCSD and EOCWD are sometimes hereinafter individually referred to as "Party" and hereinafter collectively referred to as "Parties". RECITALS WHEREAS, OCSD owns and operates regional wastewater collection, conveyance, treatment, and disposal facilities within its 471 square mile service area; WHEREAS, OCSD owns and operates the local wastewater collection and conveyance system, encompassing approximately 174 linear miles of sewer lines and serving more than 18,000 connections, within the area known as Service Area 7, which area is more particularly identified in Exhibit "A" attached hereto and incorporated herein by reference; WHEREAS, OCSD desires to transfer to EOCWD: (a) its ownership of certain local sanitary sewer lines and appurtenant facilities located in Service Area 7 ("Local Sewer Facilities"), which are more particularly described and delineated in attachments 1 and 2 of Exhibit 'B" attached hereto and incorporated herein by reference, and (b) the responsibility for providing local sewer service to Service Area 7; WHEREAS, EOCWD desires to acquire ownership and assume responsibility for the Local Sewer Facilities and to accept responsibility for providing local sewer service to Service Area 7; WHEREAS, the transfer of ownership in and the assumption of responsibility for the Local Sewer Facilities to EOCWD will require the approval of the Orange County Local Agency Formation Commission ("LAFCO"); and WHEREAS, following the transfer to EOCWD of the Local Sewer Facilities, OCSD shall retain its power to provide regional sewer service within the entirety of Service Area 7. Page 1 of 9 985050.1 AGREEMENT NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual promises set forth herein, the Parties agree as follows: 1. Recitals. The recitals set forth above are true and correct and are incorporated into this Agreement. 2. Cooperation. a. OCSD and EOCWD shall work cooperatively to complete the successful transfer from OCSD to EOCWD of the Local Sewer Facilities and the assumption of responsibility for ongoing operation and maintenance of the Local Sewer Facilities by EOCWD by no later than December 1, 2014. Both Parties shall execute any further documents consistent with the terms of this Agreement, including documents in recordable form, necessary or appropriate to fulfill the obligations imposed by this Agreement. 3. LAFCO Proposal. a. Initiation of Proceedings. EOCWD shall, within one month (30 days) from the Effective Date, initiate proceedings under the Cortese-Knox- Herzberg Local Government Reorganization Act of 2000, as amended, Government Code section 56000, et seq., requesting LAFCO approval of a reorganization proposal (the "Proposal"). The resolution of application enacted by EOCWD and submitted to LAFCO shall propose that LAFCO's approval of the Proposal shall be subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement. EOCWD shall be solely responsible for the direct costs incurred in connection with the initiation and processing of the Proposal, and LAFCO approval thereof, including without limitation any LAFCO deposits, application or processing fees, and the cost of preparing any legal descriptions, boundary surveys or maps. The Proposal shall consist of the following: i. The annexation of certain territory within Service Area 7 that is not within the current boundaries of EOCWD; and ii. A proposal by EOCWD to provide a new or different service — "local" sewer service—within the entirety of Service Area 7. b. Public Outreach. EOCWD desires to proactively inform the ratepayers within Service Area 7, and the general public, of the Proposal and the process for implementing it, including opportunities for public involvement. In furtherance of that desire, OCSD agrees to provide EOCWD with a mailing list of the property owners in Service Area 7 (consistent with the format used for Proposition 218 notifications) in an Excel spreadsheet or an Access compatible (SOL) database format within 30 days of EOCWD's submittal of an application to LAFCO. In the written materials, EOCWD shall accurately and fairly describe the Page 2 of 9 985050.1 Return to Mende Report proposal and may indicate that the Proposal is jointly proposed and supported by EOCWD and OCSD. EOCWD shall provide OCSD an opportunity to review and approve the written material it intends to mail to the property owners in Service Area 7 prior to such mailing. OCSD shall approve, or request changes to, the written materials within ten days of receipt. If OCSD fails to approve or request revisions within 10 days, it shall be deemed to have approved the materials. OCSD shall approve, or request changes to, revised written materials that incorporate or respond to OCSD's requests for changes within 5 days of receipt, or the materials shall be deemed approved. All costs of producing such material and mailing it will be paid by EOCWD. C. Letter of Support. OCSD shall cooperate with EOCWD and use its best efforts to support the Proposal in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. OCSD shall, within 45 days of EOCWD's filing of the Proposal with LAFCO, file with LAFCO a formal Letter of Support in favor of the Proposal executed by the General Manager ("Letter of Support"). The Letter of Support shall propose that LAFCO's approval of the Proposal shall be subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement. OCSD shall execute such documents and take such other actions to support and facilitate the processing of the Proposal as may be reasonably requested by EOCWD, provided such actions shall not result in any cost or expense to OCSD (other than overhead and employee staff time). d. Continuing Support for Proposal. The Parties agree to support and not oppose the Proposal before and after it is initiated. Specifically, OCSD and EOCWD will cooperate and consult with one another in responding to questions and inquiries from LAFCO, the public and the press, appear in support of the Proposal at LAFCO hearings, and cooperate on a joint response in the event that LAFCO or LAFCO staff propose to alter the Proposal. Furthermore, OCSD agrees that, prior to December 1, 2014, or such earlier time as the LAFCO proceedings have been completed or disapproved, it will not engage in negotiations with other entities regarding the transfer of the Local Sewer Facilities. Both Parties shall support the conditioning of LAFCO's approval of the Proposal on the performance of the terms and conditions of this Agreement. If LAFCO or LAFCO staff propose an alteration to the Proposal that materially diverges from the terms and conditions of this Agreement, either Party may, after consultation with the other Party, oppose the alteration, and if necessary, withdraw its support, and actively oppose LAFCO's approval of the Proposal. e. Tax Exchange Negotiations and Consultations. The Parties shall cooperate in seeking to have the Board of Supervisors adopt a property tax exchange resolution pursuant to Revenue and Taxation Code section 99 exchanging property tax from OCSD to EOCWD. The Parties agree that in the tax exchange negotiation and consultation process they will jointly support and advocate for having all of the property tax associated with the Local Sewer Facilities be exchanged from OCSD to EOCWD. In Fiscal Year 2012-2013, the Page 3 of 9 985050.1 estimated property tax collected for the local sewers was $287,000.00 (two hundred eighty seven thousand dollars). f. Local Sewer Service User Fee. i. OCSD's Annual Local Sewer Service User Fee ("the Fee") shall be continued and following the effective date, to the extent feasible, shall be collected by EOCWD rather than by OCSD. OCSD collects the Fee by reporting it to the County of Orange, which collects it on the property tax roll, and EOCWD intends to do the same. Should it not be feasible, due to statutory or County requirements, for responsibility for collection of the Fee for the 2014-2015 Fiscal Year to be transferred to EOCWD, OCSD shall account for and transmit, within 5 business days of receipt, any such revenues it receives from the County that are attributable to the Fee imposed in Service Area 7. OCSD shall rescind the Fee, as it pertains to the Local Sewer Facilities, by no later than July 1, 2015, or at such earlier time as EOCWD may enact its own local sewer service user fees. ii. EOCWD shall indemnify, defend and hold harmless, OCSD, its officers, directors, employees and agents from and against any and all claims, actions, damages, liabilities, and expenses (including attorney's fees and reasonable expenses for litigation or settlement) in connection with or arising out of OCSD's assessment, distribution, and collection of the Fee, including without limitation any such claims asserting that the collection by OCSD and transfer of the Fee to EOCWD violates Proposition 218. 4. Transfer of Local Sewer Facilities. a. Upon the effective date of LAFCO's approval of the Proposal and the requested reorganization ("Date of Reorganization"), EOCWD shall accept ownership of the Local Sewer Facilities and all maintenance responsibilities, as well as the responsibility for all sewer spill notification, reporting, and related regulatory activities. Furthermore, EOCWD shall negotiate, execute and maintain its own contracts with third-party contractors for line- cleaning, CCTV, rehabilitation, repairs and replacement, engineering consultants, and similar services, and directly pay all costs for such contracts. b. Prior to the Date of Reorganization, EOCWD shall fully execute and deliver to OCSD the Quitclaim Deed, attached hereto as Exhibit "B", transferring ownership of the Local Sewer Facilities from OCSD to EOCWD. C. Within five (5) business days following the Date of Reorganization, OCSD shall submit the Quitclaim Deed for recordation in the Official Records, Orange County California. Upon recordation, OCSD shall transmit a conformed copy of the Quitclaim Deed to EOCWD. d. Within five (5) business days following the Date of Reorganization, OCSD shall transfer to EOCWD $10,000,000.00 (ten million Page 4 of 9 985050.1 Return to Mende Report dollars) via wire transfer of the Annual Sewer Service User Fee reserves attributable to the Local Sewer Facilities. e. On July 1, 2018, OCSD shall transfer to EOCWD $15,000,000.00 (fifteen million dollars) via wire transfer of the Annual Sewer Service User Fee reserves attributable to the Local Sewer Facilities. f. If, prior to July 1, 2018, a natural catastrophe occurs resulting in substantial damage to the Local Sewer Facilities, OCSD shall release to EOCWD a mutually agreed upon portion of the $15,000,000.00 (fifteen million dollars) transfer of Annual Sewer Service User Fee reserves contemplated by section 4(e) above. Any such release will result in a proportionate reduction of reserves transferred from OCSD to EOCWD on July 1, 2018. g. After closing its books for the 2017-2018 Fiscal Year, and by no later than November 1, 2018, OCSD shall transfer to EOCWD the remainder of the Annual Sewer Service User Fee reserves, if any, attributable to the Local Sewer Facilities. h. Upon the Date of Reorganization, OCSD shall transfer ownership of the following vehicles to EOCWD: (a) a 2000 Sterling Vactor (OCSD vehicle 470, California license number 1067492, vehicle identification number (VIN) 2FZ6BJBB81AH61833), and (b) a 1995 FE42 Volvo Hydroflusher truck (OCSD vehicle 396, California license number 356619, vehicle identification number (VIN) 4V52AFHDOSR474402). These vehicles shall be provided to EOCWD "as is" and with no warranties or representations whatsoever as to the condition of the vehicle, or the suitability of the vehicle for any purpose. EOCWD hereby acknowledges that it has/will be granted the opportunity to inspect the vehicles and their maintenance records and has/will do so prior to the Date of Reorganization. I. On or prior to the Date of Reorganization, OCSD shall allow EOCWD to review, reference and utilize OCSD established specifications for line-cleaning, CCTV, rehabilitation, repairs and replacement, and similar services, as mutually agreed by the Parties. 5. Environmental Review. EOCWD shall act as lead agency for purposes of the Proposal, and shall be solely responsible for the preparation of all environmental documentation required pursuant to the California Environmental Quality Act ("CEQA"). 6. Term. This Agreement shall commence on the Effective Date and continue in full force and effect through December 1, 2014. The Parties may mutually agree in writing to extend the term of this Agreement. The Agreement shall automatically terminate if LAFCO disapproves the Proposal. Page 5 of 9 985050.1 7. Notices.

Successors. This Agreement and the provisions contained herein shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of OCSD, EOCWD, and their respective heirs, executors, administrators, personal representatives, successors and assigns. 16. Indemnification. a. EOCWD shall indemnify, defend and hold harmless OCSD, its officers, directors, employees and agents from and against any and all claims, actions, damages, liabilities and expenses (including attorney's fees and reasonable expenses for litigation or settlement) for any loss or damage, including death, bodily injury or damage to or loss of use of property, caused by negligent acts or omissions or willful misconduct by the EOCWD, its officers, directors, employees and agents in connection with or arising out of the performance of this Agreement. b. OCSD shall indemnify, defend and hold harmless EOCWD, its officers, directors, employees and agents from and against any and all claims, actions, damages, liabilities and expenses (including attorneys fees and reasonable expenses for litigation or settlement) for any loss or damage, including death, bodily injury or damage to or loss of use of property, caused by negligent acts or omissions or willful misconduct by OCSD, its officers, directors, employees and agents in connection with or arising out of the performance of this Agreement. C. The Parties acknowledge that LAFCO policy requires applicants to defend, indemnify, hold harmless, and release LAFCO, its agents, officers, attorneys, and employees from any claim, action, or proceeding brought against any of them, the purpose of which is to attack, set aside, void, or annul the approval of the application or the environmental document that accompanies it. The parties further acknowledge that this indemnification obligation will include, but not be limited to, damages, costs, expenses, attorney fees, or expert witness fees that may be asserted by any person or entity, including the applicant, arising out of or in connection with the approval of the application. As the applicant, EOCWD will be required to execute such an indemnification Page 7 of 9 985050.1 agreement with LAFCO, and, as a result, EOCWD may incur substantial costs paying for LAFCO's defense and indemnifying any liability. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the foregoing, If LAFCO does not approve the EOCWD Proposal, OCSD agrees to pay one-half of EOCWD's actual costs, associated with indemnifying LAFCO pursuant to the indemnification agreement it will be obligated to sign, as those costs are incurred; however, OCSD's payment hereunder shall not exceed $100,000.00 (one hundred thousand dollars) in total. Furthermore, if LAFCO approves the EOCWD Proposal, OCSD shall have no obligation to pay any of EOCWD's actual costs associated with indemnifying LAFCO. EOCWD shall promptly advise OCSD if the indemnification agreement it is obligated to sign as the applicant is materially different than described in this paragraph, and it shall notify OCSD if LAFCO notifies EOCWD of a legal challenge covered by the indemnification agreement. 17. OCSD Board of Directors. The Parties acknowledge that nothing contained herein shall entitle EOCWD to a seat on the OCSD Board of Directors, and that any such change would require an amendment to Health and Safety Code section 4730.65, which governs the composition of the OCSD Board of Directors. 18. No Warranty of Title or Condition. OCSD makes not warranty or representation of any kind regarding its title to the Local Sewer Facilities, the condition of the Local Sewer Facilities, or the suitability of the Local Sewer Facilities for any purpose. EOCWD has been granted an opportunity to fully inspect the Local Sewer Facilities and has done so as of the Effective Date. EOCWD accepts the Local Sewer Facilities "as is". 19. Authorization.

Our trip was coordinated by Congressman Rohrabacher at the invitation of the Government of Abu Dhabi, extended to both the Orange County Water District(OCWD) and the Orange County Sanitation District (OCSD). Below is a summary of my activities and observations: OCWD Director Bilodeau and I attended the conference and participated in panel presentations on water recycling and other discussions regarding water reuse. I made a presentation at a panel discussion, "Understanding the Challenge of Improving Water Reuse and Performance". Members of the panel were from the United Arab Emirates, Japan, the Netherlands and the U.S. This discussion provided a global platform to highlight the Groundwater Replenishment System (GWRS) which is the largest indirect potable water reclamation plant in the world. I was able to share the policy challenges and opportunities which we faced in establishing this system and partnering with the OCWD. Abu Dhabi is faced with many wastewater and water challenges. There are two main water sources: desalination which is energy intensive, and groundwater which is subject to salt water intrusion. Another need that was evident was the need for nutrient rich irrigation water for their farm lands. These are difficult challenges when their treatment plants are located over 25 miles (41 Km)away from the general population. Abu Dhabi is also currently undertaking a major project involving installation of about 24 miles of gravity sewer tunnel which is being constructed by Abu Dhabi Sewerage Services Company. I was able to tour the project and meet with the CH2M Hill project manager. This project began in 2009 and is scheduled to be completed in 2015. Project costs are over $4 billion. While in attendance at the conference, I was able to meet with Dr. Sultan, Ministry of State. We discussed long term sustainability issues with water, the problems created by the power requirements for desalination projects and the fact that the power requirement causes oil consumption internally that could be sold externally. This then affects United Arab Emirates oil revenue that would otherwise provide the ability to build infrastructure. We were also able to discuss intergovernmental policy coordination and the setting of sewer and water rates. Page 12 1 also met with United States Ambassador Richard Corbin who was very knowledgeable of the Abu Dhabi sustainability issues and greatly appreciated our support to participate in the conference and highlight U.S. policy and key projects. During the trip, I also met with Japanese Wastewater Experts to discuss their Fukuoka Japan Waste Treatment Process and challenges related to reclamation options (mountain to shore). GE Water and Power discussed their current subsidiary initiatives in renewable energy and the largest global Reclamation Plant in Kuwait (Non-Potable). Shell Upstream Services was also in attendance and discussed using reclaimed water in oil extraction/injection process. New York University requested OCSD to provide graduate level Research Projects, as well as invited OCSD to present at the University. OCSD and OCWD met with Abu Dhabi Sewerage Service Company to discuss wastewater and water alternatives. We agreed to send over additional OCSD, OCWD, and GWRS materials and will consider possibly setting up a phone meeting to discuss OCSD and OCWD geology studies and less�onMs� learned. y Troy Edgar,/Chairman Board of Directors Page 2 of 2 ITEM NO. 17 MINUTES LEGISLATIVE AND PUBLIC AFFAIRS SPECIAL COMMITTEE MEETING Orange County Sanitation District The Legislative and Public Affairs Special Committee meeting convened on Monday, February 10, 2014, at 8:05 a.m. in the Administration Building of the Orange County Sanitation District.
