FROM:James D. Herberg, General Manager Originator: Lan C. Wiborg, Director of Environmental Services SUBJECT: ENVIRONMENTAL REGULATORY REPORTS GENERAL MANAGER'S RECOMMENDATION RECOMMENDATION: Recommend to the Board of Directors to: Receive and file environmental regulatory reports:Biosolids Management Compliance Report 2019; Annual Pretreatment Program Report Fiscal Year 2018-2019;Semi-Annual Pretreatment Program Report Fiscal Year 2019-2020 (July-December);Annual Greenhouse Gas Emissions Report 2019; Annual Emission Report 2019; and Marine Monitoring Annual Report 2018/2019. BACKGROUND The Orange County Sanitation District (Sanitation District)is subject to environmental regulatory oversight by the U.S.Environmental Protection Agency (EPA),Regional Water Quality Control Board (Santa Ana Region),California Air Resources Board,and South Coast Air Quality Management District (SCAQMD).These regulatory bodies require routine reporting,which is prepared by the Sanitation District’s Environmental Services Department. These reports include: 1.Annual Biosolids Report (40 CFR Part 503)required by the Sanitation District’s NPDES permit for ocean discharge. Due February 19th of every year. 2.Annual and Semi-Annual Pretreatment Program Reports required by the Sanitation District’s NDPES permit. Due October 31st and March 31st, respectively, of every year. 3.Annual Mandatory Reporting of Greenhouse Gas Emissions required by CARB.This report uses an online portal for report preparation and submission. Due April 10th of every year. 4.Annual Emission Report required by SCAQMD. Due early-mid March of every year. 5.Annual Marine Monitoring Report required by the Sanitation District’s NPDES ocean discharge permit. Due March 15th of every year. RELEVANT STANDARDS ·Comply with environmental permit requirements Orange County Sanitation District Printed on 6/3/2020Page 1 of 3 powered by Legistar™ File #:2020-1006 Agenda Date:6/10/2020 Agenda Item No:2. ·Safe, beneficial reuse of biosolids ·Comply with transparency and communication requirements, including the Brown Act ADDITIONAL INFORMATION Environmental regulatory reporting is required by local,state,and federal regulatory bodies to ensure protection of water,air,and land resources.Some of the routine reporting is completed using online reporting portals,which may perform calculations based on user input of operational data.The following key regulatory reports were filed recently. The Biosolids Annual Report contains details about the management of the Sanitation District’s biosolids,including volume,quality,and locations.In 2019,the Sanitation District produced approximately 632 tons of biosolids per day,including digester cleanings.The biosolids are anaerobically digested and dried to about 24-25%solids.The biosolids are managed via composting and land application.The Biosolids Annual Report was submitted electronically as required by EPA’s Electronic Reporting Rule. Under its National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System permit,the Sanitation District is required to establish and implement an approved pretreatment program to control the level of pollutants discharged into the sewer system.The Sanitation District is also required to submit Pretreatment Program Annual and Semi-Annual Reports detailing the status of the approved program.The reports identified herein contain information about all industrial dischargers permitted by both the Sanitation District and the Santa Ana Watershed Project Authority (SAWPA).The Annual and Semi-Annual reports were successfully completed and submitted prior to the October 31,2019 and March 31, 2020 deadlines, respectively. The SCAQMD’s Annual Emissions Report (AER)represents a facility's annual inventory of criteria pollutants (VOC,NOx,SOx,CO,PM)and toxic air emissions.The emissions are calculated based on throughput volume and emissions measured at applicable process areas and emission units.The report assesses fees based on a facility's emissions of air contaminants for the reportable year,as specified in SCAQMD Rule 301.The AER reports for Plants Nos.1 and 2 are prepared and submitted using SCAQMD's web-based emission reporting tool.For calendar year 2019,Plant No.1 emitted approximately 27.0 tons of criteria pollutants and the Sanitation District paid total fees in the amount of $12,786.93.For the same reporting period,Plant No.2 emitted approximately 27.4 tons of criteria pollutants and the Sanitation District paid total fees in the amount of $12,511.17.The reports were completed and submitted prior to the March 17 deadline. In accordance with the California Global Warming Solutions Act (Assembly Bill 32,2006),the California Air Resources Board (CARB)requires all major sources that directly emit Greenhouse Gases (GHG)to report their GHG emissions resulting from their combustion of fuel and importation of electrical power for each calendar year.The GHG inventory report focuses primarily on the emissions of carbon dioxide (CO2),methane (CH4),and nitrous oxide (N2O).Similar to SCAQMD's AER reporting portal,the GHG report is electronically submitted via CARB's Cal e-GGRT reporting system.For calendar year 2019,Plant No.1 reported roughly 23,359 metric tons of CO2 emissions, while Plant No.2 reported approximately 34,920 metric tons of CO2 emissions.The reports were electronically submitted on April 10, 2020. The Sanitation District has completed its annual report for the marine monitoring program as required Orange County Sanitation District Printed on 6/3/2020Page 2 of 3 powered by Legistar™ File #:2020-1006 Agenda Date:6/10/2020 Agenda Item No:2. The Sanitation District has completed its annual report for the marine monitoring program as required by its National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System permit which evaluates and measures potential impacts to water quality,sediment chemistry,fish and invertebrate community,fish health, and sediment toxicity.The Sanitation District’s ocean monitoring program has three required components:Core Monitoring,Regional Monitoring,and Strategic Process Studies,and this comprehensive program is implemented through rigorous monitoring of benthic sediments for chemical deposition,changes in biological communities,and the health of fish living near the Sanitation District’s ocean outfall.Additionally,the program is tasked with profiling plume dynamics from the effluent discharge and with monitoring water chemistry,oxygen availability,and physical conditions throughout the water column to ensure regulatory compliance.This report summarizes data collected from July 2018 through June 2019 and was electronically submitted by the March 15, 2020 deadline. As the Sanitation District continues to make advancements to the wastewater treatment processes, our marine monitoring program continues to show improvement of environmental health around the outfall and outer monitoring area.Water quality measurements demonstrate no negative environmental impacts from the Sanitation District’s effluent and brine discharge.Sediment concentrations of metals and organic contaminants were well below the protective thresholds. Marine invertebrates and fish have shown comparable abundances near the outfall and non-outfall stations alike.Concentrations of trace metals and chlorinated pesticides in fish tissue (muscle and/or liver)were well below federal and state human consumption thresholds and comparable across outfall and non-outfall stations.

The following sections describe the types and quantities of OCSD permits issued and deactivated for the period July 1, 2019 through December 31, 2019. There are seven permit & certification classifications for users that are administrated by OCSD’s Pretreatment Program: Class I Permits, Class II Permits, Wastehauler Discharge Permits, Special Purpose Discharge Permits, Dry Weather Urban Runoff Discharge Permits, Fats/Oil/Grease (FOG) Permits, and Discharge Certifications. 1.2 Class I Permits During this reporting period, six (6) new permits were issued, and seven (7) permits were deactivated for those users who: a. are subject to Federal Categorical Pretreatment Standards; or b. average 25,000 gallons per day or more of regulated process wastewater; or c. have been determined by the General Manager to have a reasonable potential for adversely affecting OCSD’s operation or for violating any pretreatment standard, local limit, or discharge requirement; or d. may cause, as determined by the General Manager, pass-through or interference with OCSD sewerage facilities. 1.3 Class II Permits During this reporting period, no new permits were issued, and no permits deactivated for those users who: a. have a charge for use greater than the ad valorem tax basic levy allocated to OCSD, and b. discharge waste other than sanitary, and c. are not otherwise required to obtain a Class I Permit. 1.4 Wastehauler Permits During this reporting period, four (4) new permits were issued for those users who are engaged in vehicular transport and disposal of acceptable domestic waste into OCSD’s wastehauler station. 1.5 Special Purpose Discharge Permits During this reporting period, six (6) new permits were issued and eight (8) permits were deactivated for those users who discharge groundwater, subsurface drainage, unpolluted water, or other wastewater to OCSD’s system. This permit is granted when no alternative method of disposal is reasonably available or to mitigate an environmental risk or a health hazard. 1-2 1.6 Urban Runoff Permits OCSD accepts the diversion of urban runoff to the sewer for treatment to remediate various public health and environmental problems which are infeasible to economically or practically control through traditional stormwater best management practices. Originally established to protect and improve the recreational waters along Orange County’s coastal shoreline from bacterial pollution, the role of the Dry Weather Urban Runoff Program has expanded to include the mediation of selenium-laden waters reaching the Upper Newport Bay. The Resource Protection Division administers the Urban Runoff Diversion Program through the issuance of a discharge permit for each of the diversion structures. The permit establishes discharge limits, constituent monitoring, and flow metering requirements, as well as provides guidelines that specifically prohibit storm runoff and authorizes discharge only during periods of dry weather. OCSD also conducts quarterly sampling and analysis of the urban runoff discharges to ensure discharge limit compliance with the various regulated constituents. There are currently twenty-one (21) active Urban Runoff diversions under permit; three (3) owned and operated by the County of Orange, eleven (11) owned and operated by the City of Huntington Beach, three (3) owned and operated by the Irvine Ranch Water District, three (3) owned and operated by the City of Newport Beach, and one (1) owned and operated by PH Finance (present owner of the Pelican Hill Resort). There were no new diversions added to the Urban Runoff Diversion Program during this reporting period. 1.7 FOG (Fats, Oil, and Grease) Permits OCSD’s Resource Protection Division facilitated the effort to develop a regional FOG Control Program to regulate the quantity and quality of FOG-laden wastewater that is discharged into the sewerage system from food service establishments (FSEs). OCSD currently manages the FOG control program for 38 FSEs that discharge directly into OCSD owned trunklines in the City of Orange. During this reporting period, OCSD renewed eight (8) FOG permits to existing permittees, and one (1) FOG permittee was deactivated. No new FSEs were identified in OCSD’s direct service area. 1.8 Discharge Certifications During this reporting period, no new Discharge Certifications were issued, and none were deactivated. One (1) new Zero Discharge Certification was issued, and one (1) deactivated for those industries that have operations subject to a federal category regulated by the EPA, but do not discharge industrial wastewater generated from these operations to the sewer. 1.9 Summary of Permits and Certifications in Effect A summary of permit and certification activity during the July 1 through December 31, 2019 period, is shown in Table 1.1. 1-3 TABLE 1.1 – ACTIVE PERMITS AND CERTIFICATIONS July 1 - December 31, 2019 Orange County Sanitation District, Resource Protection Division Permit / Certification Type New Issuance Deactivated Effective During Reporting Period Class I (SIU) 6 7 325 Class I Categorical (CIU) 4 5 180 Class I Non-Categorical 2 2 145 Discharge Certification 0 0 2 Zero Discharge Certification 1 1 22 Class II 0 0 21 Wastehauler 4 0 39 Special Purpose 6 8 54 Urban Runoff 0 0 21 FOG 0 1 38 TOTAL 23 24 522 chapter 2 ENFORCEMENT 2-1 2.0 ENFORCEMENT 2.1 Introduction The goal of the Orange County Sanitation District’s (OCSD) industrial wastewater enforcement program is to bring its permitted industrial users into compliance with OCSD’s Wastewater Discharge Regulations (Ordinance) terms, conditions, and limits, and to control and reduce industrial pollutants. In addition to assessing noncompliance fees, issuing Notices of Violation, and sending compliance letters, other types of enforcement actions are conducted for industrial violators when appropriate. These actions include compliance requirements, compliance inspections, compliance meetings, Probation Orders, Enforcement Compliance Schedule Agreements (ECSAs), Regulatory Compliance Schedule Agreements (RCSAs), Administrative Penalties, Permit Suspension, Permit Revocation, and Emergency Suspension Orders. This report describes the enforcement actions that OCSD initiated or continued against noncompliant permittees for the semi-annual reporting period of July 1, 2019 through December 31, 2019. Appendix 1 of this report, entitled Monitoring and Compliance Status Report, contains information regarding the number of industrial inspections and the number of OCSD and self-monitoring samples taken for each Class I permittee for the first and second quarters of Fiscal Year 2019/20. Each permittee's name, permit number, and address are given in the first three columns. Additional columns present the North American Industry Classification System (NAICS) code, applicable pretreatment regulation, the number of performed inspections, the number of completed samples, the pollutant(s) in discharge violations, and other applicable comments, including name changes and permit issuances/deactivations. 2.2 Compliance Inspections When a permittee is determined to be violating discharge limits, an engineer and an inspector conduct special inspections to identify and assess the noncompliance issues, require corrective actions, and monitor the progress of those permittees operating under the terms and conditions of ECSAs/RCSAs. Thirty-seven (37) compliance inspections were conducted during the first and second quarters. 2.3 Compliance Meetings Compliance meetings are called because of a permittee’s failure to achieve compliance with permit and/or Ordinance discharge, record-keeping, or other requirements. The meetings are held with OCSD staff to discuss issues and proposed solutions. Fifteen (15) compliance meetings were conducted during the first and second quarters. 2.4 Compliance Requirement Letters Compliance requirement letters are issued to require a permittee to comply with a specific condition of the permit and/or Ordinance, or to notify the permittee of an enforcement in accordance with the Enforcement Response Plan, such as a compliance meeting. Twenty-Six (26) compliance requirement letters were issued during the first and second quarters. 2.5 Order to Cease/Terminate Non-Compliance/Discharge Orders are issued where a permittee is continually non-compliant or has committed one or more significant violations of the permit and/or Ordinance. The Order requires a permittee to comply with a specific condition 2-2 of the permit and/or Ordinance and may notify the permittee of escalated enforcement in accordance with the Enforcement Response Plan, such as a compliance meeting. Nine (9) orders to cease/terminate non-compliance/discharge were issued during the first and second quarters. 2.6 Notices of Violation A Notice of Violation (NOV) is a written notification from OCSD that references findings from recent sampling programs and indicates that specific violations of the permittees’ discharge limits have occurred. The NOV is usually accompanied by non-compliance sampling and/or processing fees. The NOV instructs the permittee to take immediate action to correct the problem. Sixty (60) Notices of Violation were issued in the first and second quarters. 2.7 Probation Orders Pursuant to Section 603.1 of OCSD’s Ordinance, a Probation Order may be issued if a permittee has violated any terms, conditions, or limits of its discharge permit or OCSD’s Ordinance, or has not paid all amounts owed to OCSD. The term of the Probation Order may not exceed 90 days and the permittee is required to comply with all directives, conditions, or requirements within the time specified. One (1) Probation Order was issued in the first and second quarters. 2.8 Enforcement Compliance Schedule Agreement (ECSA) If a permittee is in noncompliance with the terms, conditions, or limits specified in the permit or the Ordinance and needs to construct and/or acquire and install equipment related to pretreatment, OCSD may require the permittee to enter into an ECSA. The ECSA contains terms and conditions by which the permittee must operate and specifies dates for construction and/or acquiring and installing the pretreatment equipment and achieving compliance. One (1) ECSA was issued during the first and second quarters. 2.9 Regulatory Compliance Schedule Agreement (RCSA) Subsequent to the issuance of an Industrial Wastewater Discharge Permit to an industrial user, federal Categorical Pretreatment Standards may be adopted or revised by the EPA, or OCSD may enact revised discharge limits. If the General Manager determines that a permittee would not be in compliance with the newly adopted or revised limits, the permittee may be required to enter into a RCSA with OCSD. The terms and conditions of a RCSA require the permittee to achieve compliance with all new standards by a specific date. RCSAs have a maximum term of two-hundred seventy (270) days. The issuance of a RCSA may contain terms and conditions including, but not limited to, requirements for installation of pretreatment equipment and facilities, submittal of drawings or reports, waste minimization practices, or other provisions to ensure compliance with OCSD’s Ordinance. While the RCSA is in effect, any discharge by the permittee in violation of the RCSA will require payment of non-compliance sampling fees in accordance with Article 6 of OCSD’s Ordinance. There were no RCSAs issued during the first and second quarters. 2-3 2.10 Administrative Penalties Pursuant to the authority of California Government Code Section 54740.5, OCSD may issue an Administrative Complaint against the responsible officer or owner of any permittee that violates any permit condition or effluent limit. Administrative penalties were issued in two (2) Administrative Compliant Settlement Agreements during the first and second quarters. 2.11 Permit Suspension OCSD staff may seek permit suspension if a permittee fails to comply with the terms and conditions of an ECSA, RCSA, or Probation Order; fails to provide reports; or violates any condition or limit of a discharge permit or Ordinance provision. When OCSD believes that grounds exist for permit suspension, the permittee is notified in writing of the reasons for permit suspension and the date of the permit suspension hearing. At the hearing, OCSD staff and the permittee are provided the opportunity to present their evidence to the Hearing Officer. After the hearing, a written determination is made and upon order of suspension the permittee must cease discharge to the sewer for the duration of the suspension. No permit suspensions were ordered during the first and second quarters. 2.12 Permit Revocation OCSD staff may seek permit revocation if a permittee fails to comply with the terms and conditions of an ECSA, RCSA, or Probation Order; fails to provide reports; or violates any condition or limit of a discharge permit or Ordinance provision. When OCSD believes that grounds exist for permit revocation, the permittee is notified in writing of the reasons for permit revocation and the date of the permit revocation hearing. At the hearing, OCSD staff and the permittee are provided the opportunity to present their evidence to the Hearing Officer. After the hearing, a written determination is made and upon order of revocation the permittee must permanently terminate discharge to the sewer and the permit is no longer active. No permit revocations were ordered during the first and second quarters. 2.13 Emergency Suspension Order Pursuant to Section 614 of OCSD’s Ordinance, an Emergency Suspension Order may be ordered to stop an actual or impending discharge that presents or may present an imminent or substantial endangerment to the health and welfare of persons or to the environment; may cause interference to OCSD’s sewerage facilities; or may cause OCSD to violate any state or federal law or regulation. No Emergency Suspension Orders were issued during the first and second quarters. 2.14 Civil/Criminal Complaints When a permittee intentionally or negligently violates any provision of the Ordinance, permit conditions, or discharge limits, OCSD may petition to the Superior Court for the issuance of a preliminary or permanent restraining order. In addition, OCSD can petition the Court to impose, assess, and recover civil penalties for each day that violation occurs or seek criminal penalties for illegal disposal in accordance with OCSD’s Ordinance. No civil/criminal complaints were made during the first and second quarters. 2-4 2.15 Industries with Discharge Violations The table below lists those facilities with discharge violations between July 1st – December 31st, 2019, and whether the violation(s) exceeded Federal Categorical Standard (FCS) Limits, OCSD Local Limits, or both.

Potential enforcement actions include permit revocations, permit suspensions, compliance inspections, compliance meetings, probation orders, enforcement compliance schedule agreements (ECSA), orders to cease, among others. 2-6 A & R Powder Coating, Inc. (Permit No. 1-021088) A & R Powder Coating, Inc. (A & R) performs powder coating and painting. Cold rolled steel and aluminum parts are brought in by outside customers. The parts are processed through an iron phosphate conversion coating line and then heated briefly in an oven to dry off residual moisture prior to spray painting or powder coating per customer requirements. A & R employs a batch holding tank to store wastewater from the iron phosphate wash line. The batch is reportedly allowed to sit overnight and checked for zinc concentration with a Hach field test kit periodically, with the results entered onto a logbook. After testing and inspection, the tank is drained the next morning into a small three-stage clarifier. The holding tank is opaque and has a conical bottom for ease of inspection and solids removal, and a cartridge filter system is installed on the inlet plumbing line to remove solids during transfer of the rinse water from the wash line. In June 2019, A & R Powder Coating (A & R) had a molybdenum violation. July 1 – December 31, 2019 On August 8, 2019, OCSD issued a Notice of Violation for the previous month’s molybdenum noncompliance. On September 4, 2019, OCSD conducted a Compliance Inspection and resampling. The iron phosphate solution used at A & R had previously been identified to be the source of violation as it contained sodium molybdate. During the inspection, A & R mentioned that in mid-August, shortly after receiving the Notice of Violation, A & R pumped out the tanks and clarifier and replaced the iron phosphate solution with a non-molybdate chemical to prevent future violations. The resampling results showed compliance. A & R had no further violations during this reporting period. OCSD will continue to monitor A & R’s discharge and compliance status on a quarterly basis. Accurate Circuit Engineering (Permit No. 1-011138) Accurate Circuit Engineering (Accurate) is a printed circuit board (PCB) manufacturer with an in-house design and engineering team, as well as large scale manufacturing operations. Accurate manufactures various types of PCBs, including rigid single sided, rigid double-sided, and rigid multilayer. Wastewater is primarily generated by the photo developing operations, etching, scrubbing via hyoki, alkaline cleaning, Cobra bond micro-etch, black oxide line, electroless copper and electrolytic copper plating, screen wash booths, cross-sectional grinding and associated rinses. Pretreatment consists of continuous ion exchange and hydroxide precipitation. In April 2019, Accurate had silver daily and monthly average discharge limit violations, as well as a copper monthly average discharge limit violation. In May 2019, OCSD issued a Notice of Violation for the silver daily limit violation. OCSD conducted a Compliance Inspection during which it was determined that the silver recovery unit was not operating properly and Accurate was not verifying silver compliance before discharging to the sewer. Accurate opted to wastehaul all developer wastewater to avoid future silver violations. July 1 – December 31, 2019 On July 1, 2019, OCSD issued a Notice of Violation for the April 2019 copper and silver monthly limit violations. Accurate had no further violations during this reporting period. OCSD will continue to monitor Accurate’s discharge and compliance status on a quarterly basis. Active Plating, Inc. (Permit No. 1-011115) Active Plating, Inc. (Active Plating) is a job shop metal finishing facility. Active Plating performs zinc plating with clear and gold chromate conversion coating on steel, and chemfilm operations on aluminum parts. Parts are generally used in electronics or computer applications. Wastewater is segregated between hexavalent chrome bearing operations and other metal-bearing/alkaline wastestreams. Pretreatment consists of 2-7 chromium reduction, hydroxide precipitation, with settling and flocculation in two parallel clarification tanks. Active Plating has pH and ORP probes connected to an advanced programmable logic controller which automates the treatment system. In April 2018, Active Plating had a zinc violation, and was issued a Notice of Violation. In May 2018, OCSD conducted a Compliance Inspection during which the pH and ORP probes were found not operating properly. OCSD also noted that Active Plating periodically takes one of the clarification tanks off-line for batch treatment or solids removal. When this occurs, floc carry-over into the sample point becomes an issue due to reduced treatment capacity. In June 2018, OCSD held a Compliance Meeting with Active Plating during which the company was required to come up with a long-term solution for implementing effective process controls and treatment when one clarification tank is offline. The company was also required to submit detailed pretreatment system drawings and an updated facility plot plan. In October 2018, Active Plating had another zinc violation, and was issued another Notice of Violation. In December 2018, OCSD conducted a follow-up Compliance Inspection during which treatment concerns involving hydraulic capacity of the system were identified. Hence, OCSD issued a Compliance Requirements Letter to Active Plating to address the noted deficiency. In January 2019, OCSD held a Compliance Meeting with Active Plating to discuss corrective actions. In April 2019, OCSD issued a Probation Order providing deadlines for corrective actions. In June 2019, OCSD issued another Compliance Requirement Letter extending Probation Order deadlines. July 1 – December 31, 2019 On September 4, 2019, OCSD observed a flexible hose discharging city water into Active Plating’s sample point while Active Plating was conducting self-monitoring. Thus, on September 24, 2019, OCSD issued an Order to Cease Noncompliant Discharges requiring the company to take immediate corrective actions to prevent dilution sources. Additionally, on September 24, 2019, OCSD issued a follow-up Compliance Requirements Letter to address Active Plating’s failure to submit documents required in the Probation Order and attend a Compliance Meeting. On October 29, 2019, OCSD held the Compliance Meeting with Active Plating, during which OCSD informed Active Plating of its intention to issue an Administrative Complaint. Active Plating expressed interest in settling the matters with OCSD. An Administrative Complaint Settlement Agreement will be issued during the next reporting period. Advance Tech Plating, Inc. (Permit No. 1-021389) Advance Tech Plating, Inc. (ATP) is a job shop metal finishing facility. The facility performs anodizing and passivation on steel and aluminum parts and some copper/brass parts. Operations at ATP start with precleaning and etching, then deoxidizing with muriatic acid and anodizing with sulfuric acid, followed by chem filming and dye coloring per customer specification. To protect the dyed surface, the parts are dipped in a clear anoseal followed by final rinsing and drying. Majority of the wastewater is generated from the rinsing operations. ATP operates a continuous and a batch pretreatment system which consists of chrome reduction, pH adjustment, flocculation, metal precipitation and clarification. ATP utilizes a filter press for sludge dewatering. In May 2019, ATP had pH violations and major zinc, copper, and nickel daily and monthly average discharge limit violations. OCSD issued ATP Notices of Violation along with an Order to Cease Noncompliant Discharges due to the severity of the violations. OCSD also conducted a Compliance Inspection during which ATP was directed to stop noncompliant discharges and determine the cause of the violations. ATP submitted a response letter indicating that a clogged discharge tube on the sodium hydroxide metering pump led to a low pH and, hence, incomplete treatment of metals. ATP’s corrective actions included installation of a low pH alarm and a recirculation line, which would allow ATP to recirculate noncompliant wastewater back into the treatment tanks. 2-8 In June 2019, OCSD issued a Compliance Requirement Letter directing ATP to attend a Compliance Meeting to discuss the violations. During the Compliance Meeting, ATP was directed to take the following additional corrective measures: automating the low pH recirculation line with, having a qualified operator present during all discharge hours, maintaining the pretreatment tanks, good housekeeping, and performing a hydraulic evaluation of the pretreatment system. July 1 – December 31, 2019 On July 9, 2019, OCSD issued a Compliance Requirements Letter requiring ATP to have a qualified operator present during all discharge hours, maintain the pretreatment tanks, have good housekeeping, and perform a hydraulic evaluation of the pretreatment system by the end of August 2019. On August 6, 2019, ATP had multiple major zinc violations. On August 8 and August 21, 2019, Notices of Violation were issued to ATP to address the May 2019 monthly limit violations and the most recent zinc violations, respectively. On September 9, 2019, OCSD conducted a Compliance Inspection during which ATP attributed the violation to malfunctioning pH and ORP controllers. The malfunction was due to an issue with the grounding of the controller which was immediately fixed upon discovery. OCSD once more emphasized the importance of installation of pH alarm and automatic controller to prevent future violations and required ATP to record and maintain a batch treatment log on site. ATP also mentioned that due to lack of a qualified operator on the second shift, the facility plans to operate the continuous pretreatment system only during the first shift. During the second shift, all generated industrial wastewater is to be routed to the batch treatment tank. The operator then treats the batch the following day and will gradually bleed the partially treated wastewater to the continuous system. The installation of a low/high pH alarm and automatic controller was completed and confirmed on October 7, 2019. At OCSD’s direction, ATP conducted multi-day sampling starting October 7, 2019 until October 12, 2019 to verify compliance after the installation. The multi-day sampling results showed compliance. On November 4, 2019, OCSD issued a Notice of Violation for the August 2019 zinc monthly limit violation. Furthermore, OCSD increased the frequency of ATP’s heavy metals self-monitoring requirements from monthly to weekly effective December 1, 2019. OCSD will continue to monitor ATP’s discharge and compliance status on a quarterly basis. Alliance Medical Products, Inc. (Permit No. 1-541182) Alliance Medical Products, Inc. (Alliance) is a manufacturer of medical surgical devices along with aqueous and injectable drugs which are produced under aseptic conditions. Medical devices include corneal storage media, ocular implants and other clinical products. Other manufactured items include medical delivery devices, sterile ointments and gels, as well as several clinical products that are considered combination products by the FDA. Wastewater is generated from the aseptic sterile filling process, cleaning of glassware in the labs, production of steam for the autoclaves, rinsing and cleaning of manufacturing equipment and tooling, and surplus injection water not utilized during a production run. The wastewater is discharged to the sewer without any form of pretreatment. In June 2019, Alliance had a pH violation. July 1 – December 31, 2019 On July 9, 2019, OCSD issued a Notice of Violation for the previous month’s pH violation. On August 2, 2019, OCSD conducted a Compliance Inspection during which Alliance indicated that the source of the violation is the Clean in Place (CIP) process. The current process at Alliance uses a Jensen CIP system, which operates on a selector switch scheme. Alliance determined that an operator selected the wrong position on the drain switch and incorrectly diverted low pH rinse water to the drain. On August 7, 2019, Alliance submitted a corrective action letter, which included implementation of a new batch process where all CIP wastewater will be discharged to a waste drum. This wastewater will be analyzed for pH and will be discharged to the drain only if the wastewater is within an allowable pH range. 2-9 During the investigation of the probable source of the pH violation, OCSD instructed Alliance to prepare a plumbing plan of the facility to determine all the wastewater discharge points. As a result of this study, it was determined that Alliance’s sample point is not representative of the discharge at the facility. OCSD will issue a Compliance Requirements Letter during the next reporting period to address the sample point issue. Aluminum Precision Products, Inc. - Susan (Permit No. 1-011100) Aluminum Precision Products, Inc. – Susan (Aluminum Precision) manufactures parts for the aerospace, automotive, commercial, military/defense, recreational, and transportation industries utilizing hot press forging techniques. Support services include assembly, CNC machining, engineering, mold making, painting, and plating. Some metal finishing and painting operations are performed offsite by outside vendors.

Pretreatment at Aluminum Precision consists of a continuous hydroxide precipitation system. July 1 – December 31, 2019 On November 5, 2019, Aluminum Precision had a zinc violation, for which a Notice of Violation was issued on November 26, 2019. On December 17, 2019, Aluminum Precision submitted a written description of the cause of the violation and the corrective actions taken by the company. Aluminum Precision attributed the violation to a faulty pH probe in the receiving/pH adjustment tank. The pH probe had since been replaced and an additional probe was installed in the discharge tank as well. Aluminum Precision also purchased two hand-held pH meters and stopped using pH strips for compliance confirmation in the receiving and discharge tanks. Additional corrective actions included setting an alarm in the discharge tank when the pH drops below 9.0 or raises above 10.0, and training operators to ensure they understand the changes made and the steps to follow when the pH alarms are triggered. Aluminum Precision also conducted multi-day sampling, the results of which all showed compliance. Aluminum Precision had no further violations during this reporting period. OCSD will continue to monitor Aluminum Precision’s discharge and compliance status on a quarterly basis.

Anchen Jeronimo also stated that the company has reduced the amount of Isopropyl Alcohol (IPA – which can lead to acetone generation) used in production, removed the laboratory fume hood cup sinks, and will conduct quarterly audits to ensure that there is no future acetone violation. OCSD will pursue escalated enforcement action during the next reporting period as a result of the continued noncompliance. 2-11 Arconic Global Fasteners & Rings, Inc. (Permit No. 1-021081) Arconic Global Fasteners & Rings, Inc. (Arconic) manufactures aluminum, titanium, and steel fasteners. Wastewater-generating processes include cadmium, copper, silver, nickel and zinc plating, potassium permanganate treatment, cyanide stripping, glycol lubricant coating, acid stripping, chromate conversion coating, deburring, quenching, miscellaneous cleaning (mop water), acid/alkaline cleaning, and air scrubbing. Arconic’s continuous pretreatment system consists of pH adjustment, cyanide destruction, chromium reduction, clarification, and sludge dewatering using a filter press. Separate, dedicated pretreatment systems are used including electrowinning (for silver plating) and oil/water separation. In September 2017, Arconic had a cyanide (amenable) violation. In December 2017, OCSD conducted a compliance inspection and routine sampling during which the sampling method/location for cyanide sampling was discussed and the cyanide treatment system was found to be adequately working. The sampling results showed compliance. In February 2018, Arconic sent OCSD a letter contesting the cyanide violation. After a comprehensive review, OCSD concluded that the sample result was valid, and therefore the violation was upheld. In February 2019, Arconic had cadmium and molybdenum violations. In June 2019, OCSD conducted a Compliance Inspection and resampling, during which Arconic identified a lubricant product in use at the facility as the likely source of the molybdenum violation. The resampling results showed compliance. However, routine sampling conducted later that month showed another molybdenum violation. Arconic also exceeded its cyanide (amenable) monthly average discharge limit in June 2019. July 1 – December 31, 2019 On August 12, 2019, OCSD issued a Notice of Violation for the June 2019 molybdenum noncompliance. On August 29, 2019, OCSD conducted a Compliance Inspection during which Arconic detailed another operation that is a possible source of molybdenum, which was the cleaning of dip baskets with dry-film lubricant (containing molybdenum) in one of the rinses. Arconic has trained its staff to clean the baskets in the molten salt bath specifically designed for that purpose. On September 3, 2019, OCSD issued a Notice of Violation for the June 2019 cyanide (amenable) monthly limit violation. On September 18, 2019, Arconic forwarded a corrective action report, which stated that the company had re-evaluated the cyanide treatment equipment and replaced the ORP and pH measurement equipment to improve performance. Arconic performed voluntary self-monitoring for three days from September 17-19, 2019. The sampling showed molybdenum violations on the 17th and 19th, for which a Notice of Violation was issued on October 3, 2019. On November 7, 2019, OCSD issued a Compliance Requirements Letter requiring Arconic to attend a Compliance Meeting on December 3, 2019. During the meeting, Arconic detailed efforts taken to date intended to improve compliance including: employee training, replaced control and treatment equipment (ORP, pH and new microfiltration media), substitution of cooling tower additive to a non-molybdenum chemical, and the implementation of on-site laboratory molybdenum testing of the suspect solutions prior to discharge. On December 12, 2019, Arconic submitted a letter summarizing the afore-mentioned corrective actions. On October 21, 2019 Arconic was published as significantly non-compliant for the 2018-2019 reporting period due to chronic and acute molybdenum discharge violations that occurred on February 20, 2019 and June 19, 2019. OCSD will also continue to monitor Arconic’s discharge and compliance status in the upcoming year to determine if additional enforcement is necessary. 2-12 Aseptic Technology, LLC (Permit No. 1-501002) Aseptic Technology, LLC (Aseptic) is a beverage and dietary supplements manufacturer. Due to a delinquency in making timely payments for user charges, in January 2016, the OCSD Board of Directors approved a 12-month payment agreement with Aseptic in the amount of $199,228.03. Aseptic made timely payments in accordance with the agreement and completed the 12-month schedule as of January 2017. However, Aseptic Technology failed to make payments against quarterly invoices after January 2017; thereby necessitating a second payment agreement request in July 2017 for delinquent amounts totaling $451,161.54. The second payment agreement also required Aseptic to remit timely payments against new obligations occurring during the term of the agreement. In January 2018, Aseptic requested a third payment agreement for delinquencies owed in the amount of $252,315.72. This payment agreement request was authorized, and it required a letter of credit and a stipulation that current invoices were to be paid in a timely manner. As a result of the payment agreement, a typical two-year Class 1 permit was not issued to Aseptic, and the permit was renewed for only three months-at-a-time. Due to Aseptic’s repeated failure to make timely payments pursuant to the third payment agreement, OCSD did not renew the permit which was expiring end of March 2019. In April and May 2019, OCSD conducted Compliance Inspections during which OCSD noted that Aseptic continued to discharge industrial wastewater to the sewer. In April 2019, OCSD issued Aseptic an Order to Cease Discharge Without a Valid Permit. When a payment was finally received in May 2019, the then expired permit was renewed with a new expiration date set for the end of that month. This permit was not renewed again due to the facility’s non-payment of user charges. In June 2019, OCSD issued another Order to Cease Discharge Without a Valid Permit and held a Compliance Meeting during which Aseptic agreed to settle the violations associated with discharging without a valid permit. July 1 – December 31, 2019 On July 11, 2019, OCSD issued another Order to Cease Discharge Without a Valid Permit due to Aseptic’s failure to make full payment of past due amounts. On August 29, 2019, OCSD issued a Settlement Agreement to Aseptic for a settlement of $185,000.00 for discharging without a valid permit between April 1 and June 17, 2019. Aseptic has been making monthly payment towards these negotiated penalties, however, Aseptic has not paid the overdue user charges; hence, on September 9, 2019, OCSD issued another Order to Cease/Terminate Discharge Without a Valid Permit. Aseptic continued to discharge without a valid permit through the end of the reporting period, and therefore, OCSD will escalate enforcement during the next period. Auto-Chlor System of Washington, Inc.

(West/Lake) (Permit No. 1-541183) B. Braun Medical, Inc. (West/Lake) (B. Braun West) manufactures pharmaceutical intravenous fluid and the packaging for the fluid. The manufacturing process includes mixing, filling, sterilization, and packaging of aqueous injectable and parenteral pharmaceutical products. The packages are sprayed and bath-sterilized before they are placed on pallets and collected for shipment. Waste from the sterilization process consists of condensate that accumulates on the packages during the cooling process, and the water drained weekly from the heat exchangers. In October 2018, B. Braun West had a pH violation, and was issued a Notice of Violation. In December 2018, OCSD conducted a Compliance Inspection during which B. Braun West indicated that multiple sources could have contributed to the pH violation, including the shredding facility and the internal IV bag process. B. Braun West submitted a letter describing corrective actions, which included installation of a new pH adjustment system. OCSD directed B. Braun West to complete installation of the pH adjustment system by end of January 2019, which B. Braun West failed to comply with. In April 2019, OCSD issued a Compliance Requirement Letter directing B. Braun to submit an interim compliance proposal by the end of the month and to install a temporary pH adjustment system by the end of May 2019, both of which B. Braun completed. July 1 – December 31, 2019 OCSD directed B. Braun to submit the proposal for the permanent pretreatment system by the end of June 2019, and to complete installation by end of November 2019, both of which B. Braun completed. During previous compliance inspections at B. Braun, OCSD observed discharge of stormwater into the sewer system, which is prohibited by OCSD’s Ordinance. On July 24, 2019, OCSD issued a Compliance Requirement Letter directing B. Braun West to propose a stormwater mitigation plan to prevent further discharge of stormwater to the sewer system. B. Braun was required to submit the proposal by August 31, 2019 and install the proposed solution by October 15, 2019. B. Braun proposed to install a diverter valve that will be actuated prior to a rain event and will divert stormwater to an above ground holding tank. The contents of the tank will either be waste-hauled or discharged to the sewer system after receiving authorization from OCSD. B. Braun completed these requirements by the specified due dates. On December 3, 2019, OCSD conducted a follow-up Compliance Inspection and confirmed that the stormwater mitigation system and the new permanent pretreatment system were operational and appeared to be properly maintained. OCSD will continue to monitor B. Braun West’s discharge and compliance status on a quarterly basis. Beo-Mag Plating (Permit No. 1- 511370) Beo-Mag Plating (Beo-Mag) performs surface finishing on customer supplied parts made from aluminum, mild steel, and die-cast zinc. Beo-mag is a metal finishing job shop specializing in decorative chrome and gold plating. The restoration of motorcycle and classic automobile parts accounts for approximately 80% of their business, and the remaining percentage consists of small volume commercial work such as bathroom fixtures and other assorted parts. The processing of a steel or die-cast zinc part includes polishing, electrocleaning, cyanide copper strike, acid copper plating, manual buffing, alkaline cleaning to remove the buffing residue, nickel plating, and finally chrome plating. The chrome plating of a typical aluminum part proceeds by polishing, alkaline cleaning, Aluma acid etch, deoxidation, zincate, copper plating, buffing, alkaline cleaning to remove the buffing residue, nickel plating, and finally chrome plating. All wet operations are conducted manually using typical rack and wire plating techniques. The effluent discharge at Beo-Mag is generated by aqueous fume scrubbing, various spent process solutions, and the associated rinse wastestreams. 2-14 In January 2019, Beo-Mag had cyanide (total) daily and monthly average discharge limit violations and was issued Notices of Violation accordingly. In March 2019, OCSD conducted a Compliance Inspection and noted that corrective actions had been implemented by the facility to address the cyanide issue. July 1 – December 31, 2019 Beo-Mag submitted its permit renewal application on November 6, 2019, which was six days past the extended due date of October 31, 2 019. Hence, on November 18, 2019, OCSD issued a letter informing Beo-Mag that a $500 fee will be assessed for late submittal of the permit application, in accordance with OCSD’s Ordinance No. 51. Beo-Mag had no further discharge violations during this reporting period. OCSD will continue to monitor Beo-Mag’s discharge and compliance status on a quarterly basis. Bodycote Thermal Processing (permit No. 1-031120) Bodycote Thermal Processing (Bodycote) performs oven and furnace operation, metal brazing, quenching, freezing, and metal heat treating. The parts are either placed in the ovens to be aged, or treated with sodium nitrate, glycol and hot/cold water. After these first main steps, parts are either placed in the freezer (for customer pickup), or straightened/molded in the shop area. Wastewater is generated from the treatment rinse tank line, or the quench tank overflow. Bodycote has large quench tanks or sumps where the parts are submerged to be quenched. Any overflow from these quench tanks is routed to the water/glycol separation tanks where glycol is separated from water to be recycled back into the tanks. After the separation process, wastewater is routed through a settling box to remove solids before being discharged to the sewer. June 1 – December 31, 2019 On October 30, 2019, Bodycote had a molybdenum violation for which a Notice of Violation was issued on November 22, 2019. A Compliance Inspection was conducted on December 10, 2019. During the inspection, Bodycote indicated that no source for the violation was identified. Bodycote was directed to conduct informational sampling from their rinses and quench tanks to investigate the cause of violation. The results showed only low concentrations of molybdenum in the tanks. The cause of violation seems to be excessive solid settlement in the settling box which lead to carry over into the sample box. Bodycote had performed voluntary sampling in December 2019, and OCSD performed a resampling on December 19, 2019 with compliant results. In the next reporting period, OCSD will amend Bodycote’s permit to add molybdenum self-monitoring requirements, and a requirement to clean out both settling and sample boxes on a weekly basis. OCSD will continue to monitor Bodycote’s discharge and compliance status on a quarterly basis. Brea Power II, LLC (Permit No. 1-521837) Brea Power II, LLC (Brea Power) produces electricity from landfill gas extracted from the adjacent landfill, firing the gas in boilers to produce steam for use in turbines and the production of electricity. Wastewater is generated from a combination of cooling tower blow down, boiler blow down, and landfill gas condensate (LFG). Pretreatment on site includes a caustic dosage to the LFG to raise the pH within the range of 6.0-12.0. Hydrogen Peroxide is also injected downstream at the oily water separator on-site to minimize sulfide generation. A chemical mix is also injected downstream of the sample point to control hydrogen sulfide generation in OCSD’s sewer system. 2-15 July 1 – December 31, 2019 On July 31, 2019, Brea Power had a pH violation, for which a Notice of Violation was issued on August 12, 2019. On August 27, 2019, OCSD conducted a Compliance Inspection during which Brea Power indicated that the source of the pH violation was due to a pH electrode failure. On August 28, 2019, Brea Power submitted a corrective action report stating that the pH electrode had been replaced. The resampling result showed compliance. OCSD will continue to monitor Brea Power’s discharge and compliance status on a quarterly basis. Bristol Industries (Permit No. 1-021226) Bristol Industries (Bristol) manufactures military specification fasteners, including nuts, bolts, washers, and rivets, as well as airplane window channels. Wastewater is generated from the metal finishing and aluminum forming operations, which include acid/alkaline cleaning, plating (silver, copper, nickel, chromium, and cadmium), anodizing, deburring, and associated rinses. Bristol operates a batch and a continuous pretreatment system. The continuous pretreatment system consists of an equalization tank, chrome reduction, cyanide destruction, hydroxide precipitation, pH adjustment, an effluent pH controller and recorder, final polishing filter, filter press, Lamella clarifier, and an electrowinning system. The batch treatment system is used to treat spent process solutions. In 2017, Bristol completed construction of a new building to house new process and rinse tanks that would eventually replace all their aging tanks. Bristol also completed installation of a new state-of-the-art pretreatment system which was intended to replace their existing one. The new system consists of a continuous ion exchange (IX) system for heavy metals removal, and batch treatment for IX regeneration waste, chrome reduction, and cyanide destruction. The new IX system allows Bristol to recycle most of their rinses and thus save water. In June and July 2017, Bristol had cyanide (amenable) violations. In August 2017, Bristol had a cadmium violation. Bristol submitted a root cause analysis and corrective action report for the cyanide violations. The report attributed the violations to inadequate retention time due to high production and high flow rate during those two days, aggravated by low oxidation reduction potential (ORP) in stage 1 and high ORP in stage 2, thus causing incomplete destruction of cyanide. Bristol’s corrective actions consisted of adjusting the ORP and pH in both stage 1 and stage 2 during heavy production days to ensure complete treatment of cyanide. Bristol conducted multi-day sampling to confirm the efficiency of their modifications / corrective actions and the test results all showed compliance. In September 2017, OCSD conducted a compliance inspection and resampling, during which Bristol indicated that the pretreatment system operators had been trained on the proper pH and ORP settings for treatment of the cyanide-bearing wastestreams. However, the resampling results detected a nickel violation. Bristol submitted another root cause analysis and corrective action report to address the August 2017 cadmium violation. During the investigation, Bristol staff discovered that the blade in the batch treatment tank was not connected to the mixer shaft, and therefore no mixing was occurring in the batch tank. The mixer blade detached due to loosened fasteners. Bristol immediately fixed the problem and conducted resampling for cadmium. The resampling results showed compliance. In October 2017, OCSD conducted resampling for nickel and the results showed compliance. Bristol submitted a third root cause analysis and corrective action report to address the nickel violation. The report cited inadequate pH and ORP setpoints as the cause of the violation. Corrective actions consisted of increasing the pH, reducing the ORP, and conducting in-house testing of each treated batch for compliance before discharging the effluent to the sewer. In April 2018, Bristol had another cyanide (amenable) violation. In June 2018, OCSD conducted another compliance inspection, during which Bristol submitted another root cause analysis and corrective action report to address the violation. The report identified the source of the cyanide amenable violation to several 2-16 operational issues and issues with ORP probes. Corrective actions consisted of weekly calibration of the ORP probes, maintenance of calibration record logs, updating of treatment unit operating instructions to include calibration frequency, additional operator training, and additional team leader verification for probe check and record-keeping. In September 2018, Bristol had another cyanide violation. In October 2018, OCSD issued an Order to Cease Noncompliant Discharges and held a Compliance Meeting with Bristol, during which the company attributed the source of the cyanide violation to an overflow situation at the cyanide treatment unit. In November 2018, OCSD issued a Compliance Requirements Letter directing Bristol to submit a pretreatment system evaluation and proposal for improvements. Bristol’s proposed improvements included installation of an equalization tank in the cyanide treatment unit to provide adequate treatment capacity. In December 2018, Bristol had another cadmium daily discharge limit violation and a monthly cadmium mass limit violation, as well as another cyanide violation. Bristol submitted a root cause analysis and corrective action report to address the violations. The report identified the resin beds in the metal scavenger resin system for the cyanide treatment as the source of the cadmium violation. Bristol indicated that the resin beds were found to be fouling with a precipitant, which caused channeling in the resin beds allowing treated cyanide wastewater to travel through the beds with little to no contact with the resins for metal removal. Corrective actions consist of resin bed rotation and changes based on the analysis of effluent from cyanide and the metal scavenger system sample point. In January 2019, Bristol had cadmium, cyanide (amenable and total), and silver daily and monthly average discharge limit violations. In February 2019, Bristol had further cadmium, silver, and pH violations. In March 2019, Bristol had further cadmium daily and monthly average discharge limit violations. OCSD issued several Notices of Violation for the aforementioned violations between February and April 2019. In March 2019, OCSD also issued a Second Order to Cease Noncompliant Discharges in response to the recurring violations and repeated pretreatment system failure on site. In April 2019, OCSD held a second Compliance Meeting during which OCSD informed Bristol of the agency’s determination that the recent compliance issues were caused by inadequate hydraulic capacity of Bristol’s existing pretreatment system, lack of process control of the pretreatment equipment, disconnect between the upstream production processes and the pretreatment system processes, and the lack of a complete facility wastewater process review to correct the earlier violations. OCSD also informed Bristol of its intention to issue an Administrative Complaint and provided Bristol the option to enter into a Settlement Agreement and an Enforcement and Compliance Schedule Agreement with OCSD, in lieu of an Administrative Complaint, to settle the violations that occurred from June 2017 through March 2019. In June 2019, Bristol had further cyanide (total), cadmium, silver, and pH violations. That month, OCSD issued a Notice of Violation for the March 2019 cadmium and silver monthly mass limit violations. In general, OCSD has conducted multiple inspections at the facility during previous reporting periods and found that Bristol continues to experience pretreatment system failure and operational control issues onsite. Additionally, OCSD found that Bristol continued to make several process modifications onsite without prior notification to OCSD. July 1 – December 31, 2019 On July 1, 2019, OCSD issued a Notice of Violation for the April 2019 silver monthly mass limit violation. On July 11, 2019, Bristol had further cadmium, nickel and silver violations. On July 17, 2019, OCSD issued a Third Order to Cease Noncompliant Discharges in response to the continued pretreatment system failure, operational issues, and recurring violations. On August 12, 2019, OCSD issued Notices of Violation for the June 2019 cyanide, cadmium, pH, and silver violations, as well as for the July 2019 cadmium, nickel and silver violations. On August 13, 2019, OCSD held a third Compliance Meeting during which OCSD instructed Bristol to conduct a complete process study to evaluate the adequacy of the existing pretreatment system and then 2-17 develop a plan to ensure compliance with the permit limits. OCSD informed Bristol that the company has repeatedly approached corrective actions in a piece-meal fashion which has caused additional permit violations and equipment issues. OCSD reiterated that a comprehensive evaluation of the facility is required to prevent continued non-compliance. The Settlement Agreement was issued on May 29, 2019 and became effective on August 8, 2019. On September 12, 2019, OCSD issued the Enforcement and Compliance Schedule Agreement (ECSA) to Bristol. As required in the Settlement Agreement, Bristol continued to complete the ECSA requirements in a timely manner. Where more time was needed to complete further analysis, OCSD provided extensions to the schedule. However, during this ECSA period, Bristol continued to experience violations of mass emission rate limits. On September 6, 2019, Bristol had a silver mass violation. On October 29, 2019, Bristol had cyanide (amenable and total) mass limit violations. The Notices of Violation for these two mass violations will be issued in the next reporting period. On November 14, 2019, and November 20, 2019, Bristol had cadmium mass violations. On November 27, 2019, Bristol had a cadmium violation. On November 30, 2019, Bristol submitted their pretreatment system modification proposal. OCSD had concerns with the proposal pertaining to the volume of wastewater discharged to the cyanide system, segregation of the cyanide-related backwashes, and failure mode analysis of the new system. On December 4, 2019, Bristol had another cadmium violation. On December 12, 2019, Bristol had further cadmium violation plus a cyanide (amenable) violation. On December 27, 2019, Bristol had a cyanide (total) violation. On December 30, 2019, OCSD issued a Notice of Violation for the November 2019 cadmium mass violations. The Notices of Violation for the other exceedances will be issued in the next reporting period. On October 21, 2019 Bristol was published as significantly non-compliant for the 2018-2019 reporting period due to acute Cadmium discharge violations on December 6, 2018, January 8, 2019, February 5, 2019, and March 26, 2019, as well as an acute CN discharge violation on August 3, 2018. OCSD will hold another Compliance Meeting with Bristol in the next reporting period to discuss OCSD’s concerns with the company’s pretreatment system modification proposal and their recent and ongoing violations. Brothers International Desserts (North) (Permit No. 1-600583) Brothers International Desserts (Brothers North) is an ice-cream and frozen novelty manufacturer. Most of the wastewater is generated by the cleaning and sanitizing of equipment used for the manufacturing processes. July 1 – December 31, 2019 On September 9, 2019, Brothers North had a pH violation, for which a Notice of Violation was issued on October 14, 2019. Prior to this violation, Brothers North had already informed OCSD of their intention to install a new pH adjustment system on-site due to another pH violation for their other clarifier (issued under separate Permit No. 1-600582 for Brothers North). OCSD will conduct a follow-up Compliance Inspection during the next reporting period to determine Brothers North’s progress and compliance status. 2-18 Brothers International Desserts (West) (Permit No. 1-600582) Brothers International Desserts (Brothers West) is an ice-cream and frozen novelty manufacturer.

Wastewater-generating processes include alkaline and acid chloride zinc plating, bright tin plating, bright nickel plating, sulfuric anodizing, alkaline cleaning, acid activation, chromate conversion coating, chemfilm, and associated rinses. The facility engages in rack plating only. The facility operates a continuous hydroxide pretreatment system that consists of pH adjustment, chrome reduction, flocculent addition, clarification, and sludge dewatering with a filter press. Spent solutions are treated in a batch pretreatment system, with the effluent routed through the continuous pretreatment system for further treatment. In January 2017, OCSD conducted a compliance inspection during which numerous pretreatment system deficiencies and violations were found. OCSD issued an Order to Cease Noncompliant Discharges to Cadillac followed by a compliance meeting and issuance of a Probation Order in February 2017. In March 2017, OCSD conducted a joint probation search with representatives from the Orange County District Attorney’s office, Occupational Safety & Health Administration (OSHA), and Orange County Health Care Agency (OCHCA). As a result of numerous safety violations, OSHA issued an Order Prohibiting Use (OPU). Through 2017 and 208, OCSD conducted inspections to confirm the completion of the requirements from the Probation Order. The continuous pretreatment system was found to be operating in a safe and controlled manner with no indication of overflow, short-circuiting, or slug loading. The batch treatment system was operational as well and appeared to be properly maintained. Log sheets for the batch treatment system were being kept on site and were up to date. In October 2018, Cadillac had a zinc violation. In December 2018, OCSD conducted a Compliance Inspection during which multiple deficiencies were noted including missing or illegible process tank labels, a lack of pretreatment system vessel structural integrity that could lead to treatment bypass, and unidentified noncompliant wastewater. OCSD also noted that that one of the pretreatment operators failed to obtain qualified treatment operator certification as required by the Probation Order. Additionally, Cadillac had failed to provide a wastewater characterization for the processing lines prior to using them. In April 2019, OCSD issued a Compliance Requirements Letter to address the deficiencies noted during the last reporting period. Shortly thereafter, OCSD conducted a follow-up Compliance Inspection and observed further noncompliance issues including pH probes out of calibration; lack of an automated pH adjustment system and final pH chart recorder; prohibited use of flexible hosing; and process line modifications 2-19 implemented without written notification to OCSD. In mid-April 2019, OCSD issued an Order to Cease Noncompliant Discharges directing Cadillac to attend a Compliance Meeting later that month. In May 2019, OCSD issued a second Compliance Requirements Letter requiring Cadillac to correct the noncompliance issues and deficiencies by the end of the month, as discussed during the compliance meeting. In early June 2019, OCSD conducted another Compliance Inspection and found remaining deficiencies. During a follow-up inspection later that month, OCSD confirmed that Cadillac had finally completed all requirements. However, OCSD routine sampling in June 2019 detected a nickel violation. July 1 – December 31, 2019 On August 12, 2019, a Notice of Violation was issued for the nickel exceedance that occurred the previous month. On August 29, 2019, OCSD conducted a Compliance Inspection during which multiple deficiencies were noted including an uncalibrated pH meter, unqualified operators operating the pretreatment system, process changes without written notification to OCSD, and a loss of process control due to pretreatment system capacity issues. As a result of these pretreatment deficiencies, on September 24, 2019, OCSD issued a letter directing Cadillac to attend a Compliance Meeting on October 15, 2019. On October 18, 2019, as a follow-up to the compliance meeting, OCSD issued a Compliance Requirements Letter requiring Cadillac to maintain a certified wastewater treatment operator at all times during wastewater discharge, conduct testing on all treated batches of wastewater and maintain a log of those batches, maintain the pH chart recorder, and record maintenance activities related to the excessive build-up of flocculant in pretreatment system lines. On November 21, 2019, OCSD conducted another Compliance Inspection during which OCSD confirmed completion of the compliance requirements. OCSD will continue to monitor Cadillac’s discharge and compliance status on a quarterly basis. Cargill, Inc. (Permit No.1-031060) Cargill, Inc. (Cargill) is a bulk loading station with facilities for storage and packaging of vegetable and animal oils. Wastewater is generated by steam cleaning of packaging equipment and washdown of loading, processing and packaging areas (with some boiler blowdown). Pretreatment at the facility consists of a skim basin followed by clarification for the removal of oil and fat. July 1 – December 31, 2019 On September 24, 2019, OCSD issued an Order to Cease Noncompliant Discharges to Cargill for discharging wastewater which caused blockages downstream of the facility in the City of Fullerton. The Order required Cargill to attend a Compliance Meeting to resolve the matter on October 24, 2019. During the meeting the excessive discharge of oil and grease (total) (O&G-T) was discussed along with sewer discharge of surface runoff, which is also prohibited. On October 31, 2019, OCSD issued a Compliance Requirements Letter requiring Cargill to conduct monthly self-monitoring for total oil & grease, re-evaluate the pretreatment system at the facility, propose improvements to ensure adequate oil & grease removal, and develop a stormwater mitigation plan to divert stormwater from sewer discharge. OCSD will follow up on Cargill’s compliance progress and deliverables during the next reporting period. Catalina Cylinders (Permit No. 1-031021) Catalina Cylinders, a Div. of APP (Catalina Cylinders) manufactures high pressure gas cylinders from 6061 aluminum alloy material. The cylinders are produced in various sizes for the beverage, medical, and SCUBA diving industries. Wastewater is generated from the alkaline cleaning, hydrostatic pressure testing, and the iron phosphate conversion coating operations. Pretreatment at Catalina Cylinders is limited to a three-stage underground clarifier. 2-20 In January 2019 Catalina Cylinders had an oil & grease of mineral or petroleum origin mass violation, for which a Notice of Violation was issued in March 2019. In March 2019, OCSD conducted a Compliance Inspection during which OCSD explained to Catalina Cylinders that based on the manufacturing operations conducted onsite, the company's wastewater discharge is subject to the Aluminum Forming federal categorical pretreatment standards and, as a result, the oil & grease mass limits are production-based. OCSD explained further that to comply with the stringent production-based mass limits, the oil & grease concentration must be kept below approximately 15 mg/L during an average day’s flow, which would likely require pretreatment beyond the clarifier they presently operate. In April 2019, Catalina Cylinders had another oil & grease mass violation. In May 2019, OCSD issued a Notice of Violation and conducted another Compliance Inspection to reiterate concerns about Catalina Cylinders’ noncompliance with the oil & grease mass emission limits. July 1 – December 31, 2019 On October 10, 2019, OCSD issued a Compliance Summary Letter requiring Catalina Cylinders to conduct multi-day self-monitoring in October 2019. The multi-day self-monitoring was performed on October 22-24, 2019 and the results showed in compliance with their oil & grease mass emission limits. On October 21, 2019 Catalina Cylinders was published as significantly non-compliant for the 2018-2019 reporting period due to acute oil & grease of mineral or petroleum origin discharge violations on January 4, 2019 and April 1, 2019. OCSD will continue to monitor Catalina Cylinders discharge and compliance status in the upcoming year to determine if additional enforcement is necessary. City of Huntington Beach Fire Department (Permit No. 1-111015) City of Huntington Beach Fire Department (HB Fire) operates three oil extraction wells. The extracted crude oil and groundwater mixture is routed to an oil/water separation tank. Crude oil is shipped offsite while the separated wastewater is routed through an aboveground clarifier prior to discharge to the sewer. In April 2019, HB Fire had an oil & grease of mineral or petroleum origin violation and was issued a Notice of Violation. In May 2019, HB Fire reported that the violation was due to a build-up of oil and grease in the sample port and failure of the operator to flush the port prior to sampling. In June 2019, HB Fire informed OCSD through an email that they had installed a third stage for the clarifier and a separate sample box as a corrective measure. July 1 – December 31, 2019 On July 1, 2019, OCSD conducted a Compliance Inspection to confirm completion of corrective actions as a result of the violation that occurred in the prior quarter. HB Fire had no further violations during this reporting period. OCSD will continue to monitor HB Fire’s discharge and compliance status on a quarterly basis. City of Newport Beach, General Services The City of Newport Beach operates a general services yard, which houses several areas for various municipal operations and vehicle maintenance. This yard also serves as a location where vacuum-truck vehicles can unload decant wastewater generated during the cleaning of both city sewer and stormwater piping. 2-21 During an inspection in February 2017, OCSD discovered that several areas within the yard which receive stormwater flow had a direct connection to OCSD’s Sewer Trunkline. Therefore, OCSD issued a Compliance Requirements Letter directing the City of Newport Beach to divert stormwater away from OCSD’s sewerage facilities. Following a series of correspondence and inspections, the City of Newport Beach plugged and rerouted several areas to prevent stormwater from entering the sewer system. Additionally, the City of Newport Beach installed a rainwater diversion valve to divert stormwater from the upper areas, and a Fresno Sluice Gate in the sewer/stormwater decanting area so it will remain closed during the winter months. July 1 – December 31, 2019 On November 27, 2019, OCSD conducted a Compliance Inspection during a storm event and observed that the rainwater diversion switch that redirects stormwater from the upper yard was not set properly; it did not remain in the “ON” mode after the rain subsided which allowed for additional sheet flow to discharge to the sewer. In addition, OCSD observed City yard workers opening the sluice gate in the decanting area, allowing the collected stormwater and vacuum truck water to be released to the sewer during the storm event. OCSD will issue a Compliance Requirements Letter during the next quarter to address the observed stormwater issues. Coast to Coast Circuits, Inc. (Permit No. 1-111129) Coast to Coast Circuits, Inc.

Wastewater passes through a four-stage underground clarifier prior to discharge to the sewer system. July 1 – December 31, 2019 On September 12, 2019, Corru-Kraft had a pH violation, for which a Notice of Violation was issued on October 28, 2019. On November 14, 2019, OCSD conducted a Compliance Inspection and resampling, during which OCSD identified that pH treatment may be required to ensure consistent compliance. It was determined that the wastewater enters the clarifier with a pH of approximately 11.5 at a high temperature, which creates a reaction resulting in solids formation in the first two stages of the clarifier, and a significant drop in pH by the final stage of the clarifier. As a corrective action measure, Corru-Kraft plans to determine if more frequent clarifier cleaning will maintain pH compliance or if a pretreatment system will be required. OCSD will continue its enforcement response during the next reporting period. CP-Carrillo, Inc. (Armstrong) (Permit No. 1-600920) CP-Carrillo, Inc. (Armstrong) (CP Armstrong) manufactures aluminum pistons for the automotive industry, conducting mainly aluminum anodizing and graphite skirt coating.

(Darling) collects and treats waste from interceptors, clarifiers, and grease traps of food service establishments within the Southern California Region. Hauled waste is transported to the facility yard, unloaded to a large underground sump, then pumped to aboveground batch treatment tanks where it is treated with lime and polymer to enhance separation of solids and liquids. The sludge is dewatered and allowed to air dry in large rectangular vessels. The treated wastewater is collected and discharged to the sewer. The wastewater discharge permit authorizes Darling to discharge wastewater from the treatment of grease trap waste from restaurants, cafeterias, or other similar facilities, but not yellow grease or cooking oil. In addition, processing of grease from industrial kitchens, car washing facilities, metal recycling yards, or other sources of industrial or hazardous wastes is prohibited. Any generator sources outside of OCSD's service area must have a profile submitted in advance to OCSD for review and acceptance. In August 2018, Darling had a pH violation. In November 2018, OCSD conducted a Compliance Inspection during which Darling stated that pH monitoring is achieved through the use of pH strips at various points in the process including the wastewater collection sump. However, no pH logs were kept. OCSD attributed the pH violation to the inconsistent and unreliable manual pH adjustment process and inadequate monitoring utilizing pH strips. In addition, some pH fluctuation is attributable to the organic nature of the waste. OCSD required installation of a pH meter and a pH recorder, as well as operator training. 2-23 In June 2019, Darling had another pH violation. July 1 – December 31, 2019 On July 9, 2019, a Notice of Violation was issued for the previous month’s pH noncompliance. On July 18, 2019, OCSD conducted a Compliance Inspection to follow up on the ongoing pH violations. As a result of the recurring noncompliance with pH limits due to the lack of an effective pH adjustment and control system at Darling’s facility, OCSD issued a Compliance Requirements Letter on August 12, 2019, requiring the submittal of a waste management proposal by September 15, 2019, and after acceptance by OCSD, for Darling to complete installation of the proposed pretreatment system by October 31, 2019. On September 13, 2019, Darling submitted a proposal to install a pH adjustment system in an existing tank upstream of the clarifying tanks. On October 2, 2019, OCSD accepted the proposal with revisions, which included the installation of a pH adjustment system, pH monitoring system, and a rain diversion sensor to prevent the discharge of storm water into the sewer. Darling completed installation of the pH adjustment system on October 30, 2019. OCSD will continue to monitor Darling’s discharge and compliance status on a quarterly basis.

On November 14, 2019, OCSD received Electrolurgy’ s response to the silver violation, which failed to identify the source of the non-compliance. On December 2, 2019, OCSD received Electrolurgy’ s response to OCSD’s October 2019 Compliance Requirements Letter, which also failed to satisfy OCSD’s requirements. OCSD will pursue escalated enforcement action during the next reporting period. Gemini Industries, Inc. (Permit No. 1-071172) Gemini Industries, Inc. (Gemini) provides precious metals recovery and refining services for the petrochemical and petroleum refining industries. The facility is a large wet processing operation that specializes in the recovery of platinum, palladium, rhenium, germanium, and gold from spent chemical catalysts. Gemini's wet processes yield purified precious metals, refinable metal residue, and aluminum sulfate solution, sold as alum for municipal water and wastewater treatment. The recovery of precious metals at Gemini begins with spent catalyst from various customers which arrive in 55-gallon steel drums or flow bins. The catalyst is fed to a sampling system to determine specific constituent concentrations as well as the potential precious metals yield. Processing the spent catalyst begins with sulfuric acid digestion, generating a hot slurry which is pumped to mixing and settling tanks. The liquid decant is filtered through various filtration devices while the solids are wasted, dewatered, and dried. Pure palladium or other precious metals are recovered from the solids while the liquid undergoes further precious metals recovery. Spent rhenium catalyst processing follows a similar procedure aimed at the recovery of rhenium as ammonium perrhenate salts. The effluent discharge at Gemini is generated by decant liquids from the final metal precipitation and recovery process. July 1 – December 31, 2019 On November 6, 2019, Gemini had a Molybdenum violation, for which a Notice of Violation was issued on December 12, 2019. OCSD will conduct a Compliance Inspection during the next quarter. Hanson-Loran (Permit No. 1-031107) Hanson-Loran manufactures water-based floor finishers and specialty cleaners for distribution and sales by various independent contractors. The processes include dry blending (from which there is no wastewater discharge) and wet blending. The dry blending process is located inside the building, where dry powders are blended to produce Hanson-Loran’s industrial cleaners. Wet blending is accomplished in four mixing tanks at the rear of the building. Products include floor cleaners, waxes, strippers, cleaners, degreasers, sanitizers, disinfectants, and soaps. Hanson-Loran’s treatment system consists of an underground three-stage clarifier with manual pH adjustment using pH strips and addition of granulated citric acid. In October 2017, Hanson-Loran had pH violations. In November 2017, OCSD conducted a compliance inspection and resampling, during which OCSD noted that the treatment system lacked adequate control. Hence, OCSD advised Hanson-Loran to take corrective measures to prevent further pH noncompliance. Hanson-Loran installed an automated pH control system to prevent further pH violations. The resampling result showed compliance. In 2018, Hanson-Loran installed a second probe to verify the pH following adjustment in the clarifier. In March 2019, Hanson-Loran had another pH violation. In April 2019, OCSD conducted a Compliance Inspection during which it was determined that the pH adjustment system’s set points were not adequately 2-26 set; therefore, the system was over-dosing caustic to the clarifier. The pretreatment system operators were also manually adding citric acid to the final stage of the clarifier prior to the sample point in an attempt to reduce the pH. However, due to lack of proper mixing of the chemical, a layer of citric acid had developed at the bottom of the clarifier. In April and May 2019, Hanson-Loran had additional pH violations. In June 2019, OCSD issued a letter requiring Hanson-Loran to attend a Compliance Meeting. July 1 – December 31, 2019 On July 3, 2019, OCSD held a Compliance Meeting with Hanson-Loran during which the company re-iterated that improper set points of the clarifier pH adjustment system led to operators manually adding citric acid to the final stage of the clarifier in order to reduce the pH. This caused a layer of citric acid to develop in the clarifier, which in turn caused the pH violation. On July 22, 2019, OCSD issued a Compliance Requirements Letter requiring Hanson-Loran to propose and install an automatic batch pH adjustment system outside of the clarifier with an automatic chemical feed, a mixer, an automatic shutoff valve, and a 24-hour continuous pH chart recorder. Hanson Loran was also required to determine the dimensions and volume/capacity of the clarifier to ensure the sample point was adequately representative, and sampled wastewater was not retained past the sample date. On November 13, 2019, OCSD conducted a Compliance Inspection to review the progress of the installation and to review a proposed amendment to the previously accepted plan. The plan included routing all wastewater to the first stage of the clarifier and then to the automatic pH adjustment batch tank to avoid re-plumbing costs and also reduce pump demand. OCSD accepted the amendment on December 5, 2019. OCSD will verify the completed installation of the automatic batch pH adjustment system in the next reporting period and continue to monitor Hanson-Loran’s discharge and compliance status on a quarterly basis. Harbor Truck Bodies, Inc. (Permit No. 1-021286) Harbor Truck Bodies, Inc. (Harbor Truck) manufactures utility bodies, platform beds, toolboxes, and rear step-bumpers. The effluent discharge at Harbor Truck is generated from the soap cleaning and phosphate washing processes as well as rinsing in the spray booth. Wash water is collected in a large trench and a sump system installed in the wash chamber floor. From the sump, the wash water is pumped by liquid level control to a three stage pretreatment system on the west side of the facility, where pH is adjusted in the first stage using caustic, followed by polymer/floc addition for solids precipitation in the second stage, and then overflow into a collection/solids settling tank. Wastewater is discharged by gravity out of the building to a three stage underground clarifier. Harbor Truck uses a filter press for dewatering of solids from the settling tank. In April 2019, Harbor Truck had a zinc monthly average discharge limit violation. In June 2019, OCSD conducted a pre-permit inspection during which OCSD informed Harbor Truck of the zinc monthly limit violation. During the inspection, Harbor Truck stated that the root cause of the zinc exceedance was a lack of regular maintenance of the clarifier. July 1 – December 31, 2019 On July 1, 2019, OCSD issued a Notice of Violation for the April 2019 zinc monthly limit violation. On August 2, 2019, Harbor Truck submitted a corrective action report indicating that the clarifier will be maintained on a quarterly basis. This corrective action was also added as a requirement on Harbor’s permit as a special condition. 2-27 OCSD will continue to monitor Harbor Truck’s discharge and compliance status on a quarterly basis. Hi Tech Solder (Permit No. 1-521790) Hi Tech Solder is a specialty processing shop performing hot air solder leveling of printed circuit boards. Wastewater is generated from the pre-cleaning and micro-etching processes and their associated rinses. Hi Tech Solder utilizes a continuous hydroxide precipitation pretreatment system. July 1 – December 31, 2019 In October 2019, Hi Tech Solder had a copper monthly average discharge limit violation. OCSD will issue a Notice of Violation for this limit exceedance during the next reporting period. Hightower Plating & Manufacturing Co. (Permit No. 1-021185) Hightower Plating & Manufacturing Co. (Hightower) manufactures aerospace-quality washers by stamping steel, stainless steel, and aluminum coils. The parts are deburred and then processed through a variety of metal finishing steps depending on the material, to achieve the desired finish. Hightower’s metal finishing operations include alkaline cleaning, acid activation, chromic and sulfuric anodizing, cadmium plating, acid zinc plating, nickel plating, caustic etching, deoxidation, chem film, dichromate sealing, and passivation. Low concentration waste streams are treated using two ion exchange systems - one for cyanide bearing waste streams and one for non-cyanide bearing waste streams. The treated water is returned to the process tanks for reuse. The regenerant wastes from both ion exchange systems are processed through an evaporator. Concentrated wastes (including but not limited to chromic acid from the anodizing tanks) are wastehauled off-site. A small number of waste streams from the sulfuric anodize and chem film lines are sent to a chromium collection tank and then treated using the chromium reduction system. In May 2019, Hightower had cadmium concentration and mass violations. In a response letter submitted in June 2019, Hightower stated that its investigation failed to identify a root cause, as no changes to its wastewater generating and treatment activities have occurred, and confirmation sampling conducted by Hightower in May and June 2019 showed compliance with the cadmium limits. Hightower had their split sample analyzed and it yielded a lower result but still in exceedance of the cadmium limit. July 1 – December 31, 2019 On July 11, 2019, OCSD conducted a Compliance Inspection to investigate the cadmium violations that occurred in May 2019. Hightower has been in the process of transitioning from using cyanide destruct and chromium reductions systems to treating ion exchange regenerant with an evaporator. During this transition, some of the cadmium bearing regenerant may have been treated unsuccessfully using the cyanide destruct system. In a follow-up letter submitted in July 2019, Hightower stated that the site would be sending cadmium ion exchange regenerant to the wastewater evaporator under normal conditions in an effort to eliminate the reoccurrence of a cadmium violation. OCSD required Hightower to develop and submit updated site drawings and reminded Hightower that the permittee is required to provide advance written notification to OCSD of any changes to the manufacturing process or pretreatment system that affects the quantity or quality of the wastewater discharged to the sewer. Hightower submitted updated facility drawings on October 1, 2019. OCSD will continue to monitor Hightower’s discharge and compliance status during the next reporting period. 2-28 Hixson Metal Finishing (Permit No. 1-061115) Hixson Metal Finishing (Hixson) is a large metal finishing job shop. Various metallic parts from the aviation, automotive, and electronics industries are received for surface finishing through aluminum chemfilm and dyeing, cadmium, copper, and nickel electroplating, stainless-steel passivation, as well as a multitude of chemical precleaning and surface activation processes. Wastewater is generated from the rinses used in the various surface finish processes and fume hood wash water. Pretreatment consists of cyanide destruction and chrome reduction followed by heavy metals precipitation using caustic soda for pH adjustment, coagulant injection, polymer/flocculation and solids settling in a lamella clarifier, and removal to a sludge thickening tank. Overflow from the clarifier is discharged to the sample box. The sludge from the clarifier is dewatered with a filter press. Filtrate from the filter press is plumbed to the heavy metals precipitation module for further treatment. In October, November, and December 2017, Hixson had cadmium and nickel violations. In December 2017, OCSD held a compliance meeting with Hixson during which OCSD pointed out that increasing levels of water usage, as well as wastewater generation and discharge, were noted at the facility. Hixson acknowledged the situation and stated they were working on a solution. In February 2018, OCSD issued an Order to Cease Noncompliant Discharges due to the numerous violations of cadmium, copper, chromium, and nickel detected during downstream monitoring of Hixon’s discharge. In March 2018, OCSD held another compliance meeting with Hixson, where Hixson agreed to a Settlement Agreement to settle their continued noncompliance. OCSD conducted another compliance inspection during which pretreatment deficiencies were identified including lack of operating procedures and lack of pretreatment system control and maintenance. These deficiencies were addressed in a Settlement Agreement executed in September 2018 and effective in October 2018. In October 2018, Hixson had chromium and silver violations coinciding with a slug discharge from a broken flange gasket, for which a Notice of Violation was issued the same month. OCSD conducted a Compliance Inspection and resampling during which it was noted that the piping conduit between secondary containment and the pretreatment area contributing to the leak had been capped. The resampling results showed compliance. In November 2018, as required in the Settlement Agreement, Hixson submitted a Waste Management Plan, an Industrial Waste Characterization, an Operation and Maintenance Manual, and a proposal to install an Ion Exchange System. In addition, installation of an ion exchange system was necessary as a result Hixon’s limits changing from Pretreatment Standards of Existing Sources (PSES) designation to Pretreatment Standards of New Sources (PSNS). In March 2019, Hixson’s new permit limits under the Pretreatment Standards for New Sources (PSNS) became effective. In May and June 2019, Hixon had cadmium daily and monthly average discharge limit violations. July 1 – December 31, 2019 On July 8 and 22, 2019, Notices of Violation were issued for the cadmium daily limit violations that occurred in May and June 2019, respectively. On July 31, 2019, OCSD conducted a Compliance Inspection and resampling during which Hixson mentioned that the company was still fine-tuning various components of a new closed-loop ion-exchange (IX) system. The Hixson representative believed that production employees were generating carry-over from cadmium process tanks to rinse tanks not piped through the IX system, and therefore discharging to the continuous treatment system. Hixson informed OCSD that they would alert and train production staff on proper BMP’s as they pertain to cadmium plated parts, allowing for proper rinsing in the closed-loop IX system before moving to a different rinse tank. The resampling results showed compliance. On August 23, 2019, OCSD issued a Notice of Violation for the June 2019 cadmium daily limit violation. On August 30, 2019, OCSD issued a Notice of Violation for the May 2019 cadmium monthly limit violation. Hixson noted that the company was unable to determine the source of the violation, and it was noted that most sampling results prior had been well below monthly average limits and daily average limits, as were the following samples. 2-29 On November 19, 2019, Hixson had another cadmium violation. On November 26, 2019, OCSD issued a Notice of Violation for the June 2019 cadmium monthly limit violation. On December 30, 2019, OCSD issued a Notice of Violation for the November 2019 cadmium violation. OCSD will conduct a Compliance Inspection during the next quarter and will continue to monitor Hixson’s discharge and compliance status on a quarterly basis. Independent Forge Company (Permit No. 1-021401) Independent Forge Company (Independent Forge) forges parts for commercial aviation, military specific applications, and other market sectors including bicycles, archery, jet ski, and motorcycle parts. Wastewater is generated from the deburring, caustic etching, acid cleaning, and dye penetrant testing operations and associated rinses. Independent Forge uses a batch treatment system to treat the waste streams from the caustic etching and acid cleaning operations. In February 2019, Independent Forge had zinc daily and monthly average discharge limit violations. Independent Forge claimed that the root cause of the violation was the filter press, citing the age of the mesh material on the plates caused a loss of removal efficiency. However, Independent Forge was unable to explain the increase of zinc from 12.4 mg/L to 36.6 mg/L between the two sample dates, despite Independent Forge’s claim that it was the same batch of treated wastewater. In April 2019, OCSD conducted a Compliance Inspection during which several deficiencies were noted including the lack of a functioning pH meter in the batch treatment system, excessive accumulation of metal-bearing solids in the batch treatment tank, the use of the batch treatment tank as the final holding tank prior to discharge, and the lack of an effective batch treatment procedure. In May 2019, Independent Forge had another zinc monthly average discharge limit violation. OCSD issued a Compliance Requirements Letter directing Independent Forge to attend a Compliance Meeting later that month to discuss multiple noncompliance issues. In June 2019, OCSD issued a Probation Order requiring Independent Forge to rectify the compliance issues noted above. July 1 – December 31, 2019 On August 15, 2019, Independent Forge submitted a wastewater characterization and waste management plan; however, the waste management plan was incomplete and missing the proposal for batch treatment system modifications. After hiring a third-party consultant, Independent Forge re-submitted the waste management plan with a proposal for batch treatment system modifications. The proposal was not accepted since the planned modifications would not provide Independent Forge the means to maintain long term compliance. On August 29, 2019, OCSD issued a Notice of Violation for the May 2019 zinc monthly limit violation. In September 2019, Independent Forge indicated they would no longer renew their Class I Wastewater Discharge Permit, which was about to expire end of that month, as they intend to pursue a Zero Discharge Certification instead. On September 18, 2019, OCSD issued an Order to Cease Discharge, directing Independent Forge to cease all industrial wastewater discharge on September 30, 2019, as a result of permit expiration. On October 23, 2019, Independent Forge submitted their application for a Zero Discharge Certification. On December 12, 2019, OCSD conducted a Compliance Inspection and verified that all sewer connections had been sealed to prevent further industrial wastewater discharge. On October 21, 2019 Independent Forge was published as significantly non-compliant for the 2018-2019 reporting period due to acute zinc discharge violations on February 7, 2019 and February 27, 2019. OCSD will continue to monitor Independent Forge’s discharge and compliance status during the next reporting period. 2-30 J&J Marine Acquisitions, LLC (Permit No. 1-551152) J&J Marine Acquisitions, LLC (J&J Marine) performs boat maintenance and repair work, including hull repairs and recoating, plus interior remodeling. Wastewater is generated from the boat washing and cleaning process. Pretreatment consists of bag filtration followed by electrocoagulation and final pH adjustment. J&J Marine also has the capability to collect, treat, store and reuse stormwater as industrial process water in the boat washing and cleaning process throughout the facility (rather than discharging to the Newport Beach Harbor). In April 2019, J&J Marine had a copper violation. J&J Marine filed an appeal against the Notice of Violation based on the analytical result of their split sample, which yielded a significantly lower result than OCSD’s, below the copper discharge limit. July 1 – December 31, 2019 On July 22, 2019, OCSD conducted a compliance inspection during which J&J Marine reported that while cleaning one of the holding tanks for the treated effluent, a piece of copper scrap metal was found inside, which was most likely the cause of the April 2019 copper violation. OCSD intended to conduct resampling but no wastewater was available to collect a sample. During the inspection, J&J Marine noted that the company was discharging treated stormwater during storm events if the stormwater volume exceeded the facility’s containment volume. OCSD reminded J&J Marine that discharge of stormwater to OCSD’s sewerage facilities is prohibited. On July 23, 2019, OCSD issued a letter to J&J Marine stating that the result of OCSD’s split sample analysis confirmed exceedance of the copper discharge limit; therefore, J&J’s appeal of the Notice of Violation was denied. On August 12, 2019, OCSD issued a letter arranging a compliance meeting at the request of J&J Marine and their environmental consultant to discuss J&J Marine’s permissible discharges as it pertains to sanitary and industrial wastewater. On August 27, 2019, OCSD held a Compliance Meeting with J&J Marine during which J&J Marine confirmed the practice of discharging treated stormwater and runoff to OCSD’s sewer when the volume exceeds the facility’s storage capacity. OCSD reiterated the prohibition on stormwater discharges to OCSD’s sewerage facilities. On November 21, 2019, OCSD issued a Compliance Requirements Letter directing J&J Marine to submit a proposal to mitigate the discharge of stormwater and runoff to the sewer. On November 26, 2019, J&J Marine submitted the required proposal. OCSD will review J&J Marine’s stormwater mitigation proposal during the next reporting period, and will continue to monitor J&J Marine’s discharge and compliance status on a quarterly basis. Kenlen Specialties, Inc. (Permit No. 1-021171) Kenlen Specialties, Inc. (Kenlen) is job shop powdercoater. The company works on aluminum and steel parts, which undergo a washing step prior to painting or powder coating. Washing is done through a three-stage conveyorized automated washing machine with iron phosphate solution to remove any oil or other contaminants on the parts, followed by a dragout rinse and final rinsing with deionized water. The rinsewater is discharged directly from the machine to the sewer through the above ground sample box. On October 2, 2018, Kenlen had molybdenum and zinc violations, for which a Notice of Violation was issued on October 11, 2018. On October 30, 2018, OCSD conducted a Compliance Inspection during which it was determined that the iron phosphate solution used by Kenlen contained molybdenum and that the violations were a result of dragout entering the rinsewater. Kenlen stated they would instruct their employees to use the dragout to replenish the process bath instead of emptying collected dragout into the rinse tank. OCSD 2-31 directed Kenlen to not dispose of remaining molybdenum-based solution to the sewer without treatment. Kenlen is considering replacing their existing iron phosphate solution with a non-molybdate formulation. July 1 – December 31, 2019 On October 21, 2019 Kenlen was published as significantly non-compliant for the 2018-2019 reporting period due to an acute molybdenum discharge violation on October 2, 2018. OCSD will continue to monitor Kenlen’s discharge and compliance status on a quarterly basis. Linco Industries Linco Industries, Inc. (Linco) is a small metal parts stripping and cleaning facility. Parts are mostly automotive and motorcycle wheel rims and other accessories. Paint and other non-metallic coatings are stripped in a high temperature (550°F) salt bath (blend of sodium hydroxide and sodium nitrate), or in cold (160°F) strip tanks (blend of ethanolamine, n-methlpyrrolidone and dibasic ester). Parts from the salt stripping process are rinsed in low volume overflow rinse, controlled and treated with a pH monitor and sulfuric acid solution to reduce the pH down to the 9.0 – 10.0 range, then pumped to an aboveground clarifier. Parts from the cold stripping process are rinsed by a manual high-pressure spray and wastewater from the wash pad area is collected and pumped into a tank for minimal solids settling and oil separation before pumping to the aboveground clarifier. The first stage of the clarifier is used for final pH adjustment with sulfuric acid and caustic. Water from the final stage of clarifier flows over a weir and into a drum where sampling is conducted. Absorbent pads are used in the drum to remove any excess oil. In January 2019, Linco had an oil & grease violation. In March 2019, OCSD conducted a Compliance Inspection during which Linco attributed the cause of the violation to insufficient changing of the oil & grease absorbent pads that are placed on top of the tanks. OCSD directed Linco to maintain a log sheet to record the frequency of replacing the absorbent pads. Linco indicated the possibility of installing an oil skimmer in the future if necessary. June 1 – December 31, 2019 On October 15, 2019, Linco had a zinc violation, for which a Notice of Violation was issued on November 26, 2019. On November 19, 2019, OCSD conducted a Compliance Inspection during which Linco attributed the violation to operator error. Linco explained that one of their operators opened a wrong valve by mistake, which allowed unfiltered wastewater to bypass part of treatment and be discharged directly to the sewer. Linco reported that the company had made modifications to the pretreatment system in response to previous oil and grease violations. These modifications included installation of two new tanks for pH adjustment and solid settling and an oil skimmer. OCSD directed Linco to disconnect the identified bypass piping immediately and reviewed the new arrangement. On December 12, 2019, Linco submitted a corrective action letter which indicated that the bypass had been removed. OCSD will continue to monitor Linco’s discharge and compliance status on a quarterly basis. Logi Graphics, Inc. (Permit No. 1-031049) Logi Graphics, Inc. (Logi) produces circuit boards to customer specifications and specializes in prototype and small volume orders. The manufacturing typically begins with cutting the copper clad materials, drilling, photoresist application, inner-layer circuit imaging, resist developing, sulfuric peroxide etching, and alkaline resist stripping. This is followed by brown oxide surface preparation and lamination. The holes are de-smeared with sulfuric acid and made conductive through electroless copper plating. Outer-layer circuit development is conducted by either panel plate or pattern plate processes. Panel plate proceeds with copper plating followed by photoresist application, circuit imaging, resist developing, tin/lead (resist) plating, sulfuric 2-32 peroxide etching, and tin/lead stripping. Solder mask application and final surface finishing, such as hot air solder leveling and/or electrolytic nickel/gold plating, complete the wet processing. In June 2019, Logi had a copper monthly average discharge limit violation. July 1 – December 31, 2019 On September 3, 2019, OCSD issued a Notice of Violation for the June 2019 copper monthly limit violation. Logi was unable to identify a root cause for the violation and determined that it was not a recurring event as multiple samples in subsequent months showed copper concentrations below the monthly limit. OCSD will continue to monitor Logi’s discharge and compliance status during the next report period. Maruchan, Inc. – Laguna Cyn (Permit No. 1-141015) Maruchan, Inc. – Laguna Cyn (Maruchan Laguna) manufactures dried Japanese ramen noodle food products and packages them into plastic wrapping or polystyrene foam cups. Wastewater is generated by the drained condensation of the dried steamed noodles, and the cleaning of the equipment used in the production operation. Cleaning occurs at least once a day and includes the food processing equipment as well as the surrounding areas. Wastewater is discharged through collection components along the production lines, which are also cleaned on a daily basis. The pretreatment system at Maruchan Laguna consists of a clarifier, in the basement of a wastewater collection building located to the northwest of the manufacturing facility. The clarifier is equipped with a surface skimmer and collector to remove separated oil. A pH adjustment system continuously controls the acidity of wastewater discharge via an automated caustic chemical feed pump. A 10,000-gallon underground grease interceptor captures grease waste not removed in the clarification process, to prevent fats, oils, and grease buildup in the sanitary sewer system. The interceptor is regularly cleaned at least every two-weeks. July 1 – December 31, 2019 On July 24, 2019, OCSD issued a Compliance Requirements Letter to Maruchan Laguna to address the compliance issues relating to stormwater management and pH adjustment system. The proposal for pH adjustment system was due by September 15, 2019 and the installation for stormwater solution was due by October 31, 2019. Maruchan Laguna implemented both solutions on time and no other non-compliance issues have been observed at the facility. OCSD will continue to monitor Maruchan Laguna’s discharge and compliance status on a quarterly basis. Meggitt, Inc. (Permit No. 1-600006) Meggitt, Inc. (Meggitt) produces sensing and monitoring systems that measure physical parameters in the extreme environments of aircraft, space vehicles, power generators, nuclear, oil and gas installations, and test laboratories. Processes used in manufacturing operations include, but are not limited to, machining, sawing, coating, sandblasting, welding, brazing, and metal finishing. Parts worked on are made of Inconel, stainless steel and tungsten. Wastewater-generating processes include electro-polishing, passivation, etching, filament cleaning, ceramic dicing, ceramic dimensional polishing, ceramic tumbling, nickel bath plating, parts washing, and emergency only discharge of non-contact cooling water from the annealing furnace operations. Wastewater generated from the ceramic dimensional polishing operation, as well as the spent silver nitrate solution from the ceramic tumbling are wastehauled offsite. Rinses from these and the other wastewater generating operations discharge to a three-stage polypropylene aboveground tank, in which sodium hydroxide is added in the first and third compartments for pH adjustment, as most of the wastestreams are acidic in nature. pH-adjusted effluent is collected in a 750-gallon holding tank to facilitate batch discharge sampling. 2-33 In March 2019, Meggitt had lead and silver monthly average discharge limit violations. In June 2019, Meggitt had another lead monthly average discharge limit violation. OCSD conducted a Compliance Inspection during which Meggitt specified that the only two possible sources for the exceedances are the rinse associated with the silver plating and ceramic dicing machine. OCSD directed Meggitt to implement an additional pre-cleaning step at the rinse associated with silver and the ceramic dicing machine. The permittee is currently in the process of buying a filtration system for the dicing machine to further reduce the lead concentration in the wastewater. July 1 – December 31, 2019 On August 2, 2019, Meggitt had another lead violation, for which a Notice of Violation was issued on August 20, 2019. This daily limit exceedance also resulted in a monthly average discharge limit violation for lead for the month of August 2019. The cause of these violations is attributable to the dicing saw and lapping processes. On August 30, 2019, Meggitt submitted a corrective action report indicating that the filtration system for the dicing saw was already added. OCSD directed Meggitt to conduct pilot testing before discharging the waste stream directly to the sample point to ensure the filtration system will adequately remove lead from the waste stream. On September 3, 2019, OCSD issued a Notice of Violation for the June 2019 lead monthly limit violation. On September 11, 2019, Meggitt updated the corrective action report indicating that the company will add a mixed bed resin system in addition to the filtration system to further remove lead from the wastewater. During routine inspection visits, OCSD has confirmed that the pretreatment system is operational and stable. Meggitt had no further violations after the installation of the system. On November 7, 2019, OCSD issued a Notice of Violation for the August 2019 lead monthly limit violation. OCSD will continue to monitor Meggitt’s discharge and compliance status on a quarterly basis. National Construction Rentals (Permit No. 1-600652) National Construction Rentals (National) is a supplier of temporary fencing, barricades, portable toilets, restroom trailers, mobile storage containers, and temporary power poles. Wastewater is generated from the washing and cleaning of portable toilets and restroom trailers. The wastewater is routed to a three-stage underground clarifier before discharge to the sewer. In February and March 2019, National had pH violations, and was issued Notices of Violation. In May 2019, OCSD issued a Compliance Requirement Letter directing National to attend a Compliance Meeting to discuss the non-compliant pH discharges, as well as National’s failure to submit several proposals and deliverables between December 2018 and February 2019. In June 2019, OCSD held the Compliance Meeting with National during which the company indicated that the source of the pH violations was a chemical containing hydrochloric acid used in the portable toilet washing process. National had since discontinued the use of the chemical from the washing process. Following the Compliance Meeting, OCSD issued a second Compliance Requirements Letter directing National to install an automated pH adjustment system, propose a stormwater mitigation plan to prevent stormwater from entering the three-stage clarifier as prohibited by OCSD’s Ordinance, and submit a Slug Discharge Control Plan. July 1 – December 31, 2019 On July 24, 2019, OCSD issued another Compliance Letter for National’s failure to submit information required in the previous Compliance Requirements Letter with the exception of the Slug Discharge Control Plan draft submittal. On September 18, 2019, since no proposals or plans had still been received, OCSD issued an Order to Cease Non-Compliance. In this letter, National was directed to attend a Compliance Meeting. 2-34 On October 2, 2019, OCSD held the Compliance Meeting during which National stated there was a disconnect between staff and their two consultants as to who was responsible for various submittals. OCSD reiterated the need for a stormwater mitigation plan but understood that since National was no longer using acidic products to clean the portable toilets, only a pH monitoring system would be required, not an automatic pH adjustment system as previously required. During the Compliance Meeting, OCSD informed National of its intent to issue an Administrative Complaint but gave National the option to enter into a Settlement Agreement to settle the administrative fines related to the non-compliances. National agreed to settle the matter with OCSD. On November 4 and 5, 2019, National had two additional pH violations, for which a Notice of Violation was issued on November 14, 2019. On November 18, 2019, an Order to Cease Non-Compliant Discharges was issued along with a requirement to attend another Compliance Meeting. On November 25, 2019, OCSD held the Compliance Meeting with National to discuss the two most recent pH violations (one of which had a pH below the State hazardous limit of 2.0 S.U.). Although National had previously informed OCSD that they would no longer use chemicals that caused the pH to fall below 6.0, it was determined that an employee used one of these chemicals during toilet cleaning operations. National mentioned that the employee attempted to manually raise the pH by adding chemicals directly to the clarifier, however added a chemical called “pH Down” which caused the pH to fall below hazardous waste levels. OCSD explained that since National’s cleaning operations are not adequately controlled to achieve compliance with discharge limits, an automatic pH adjustment system would be required. OCSD and National negotiated a revised settlement in the amount of $22,000.00. On December 26, 2019, OCSD issued a Compliance Requirements Letter directing National to install an automatic pH adjustment system. OCSD will issue National a Settlement Agreement in the next reporting period for all related non-compliances and will continue to monitor National’s discharge and compliance status on a quarterly basis. Patio and Door Outlet, Inc. (Permit No. 1-521783) Patio and Door Outlet, Inc. (Patio) manufactures and sells high-end patio furniture. Aluminum tubing and sheeting are cut, bent, formed and welded in the manufacture of the framing for chairs and tables. After assembly, frames are washed, iron-phosphated, sealed, and powder-coated in various colors and textures. Patio also manufactures padding and furniture coverings from foam sheets and fabric covers. Wastewater from the iron-phosphate rinse is routed through a three-stage clarifier where it is pH adjusted prior to discharge to the sewer. In February 2019, Patio had a molybdenum violation. In April 2019, OCSD conducted a Compliance Inspection during which Patio reported that their investigation found the iron-phosphate solution, which is used to prepare metal products for powder-coating, to contain molybdenum. Patio purchased a new non-molybdate metal preparation solution and waste-hauled the molybdenum-bearing wastewater prior to restarting the powder coating preparation system. July 1 – December 31, 2019 On October 21, 2019 Patio was published as significantly non-compliant for the 2018-2019 reporting period due to an acute molybdenum discharge violation on February 21, 2019. Patio had no further violations during this reporting period. OCSD will continue to monitor Patio’s discharge and compliance status during the next report period. 2-35 Pioneer Circuits, Inc. (Permit No. 1-011262) Pioneer Circuits, Inc. (Pioneer) is a manufacturer of multilayer rigid, rigid-flex, and flexible printed circuit boards and assemblies. The manufacturing of a multilayer board generally proceeds by cutting the copper clad materials, photoresist application, inner-layer circuit imaging, resist developing, cupric chloride etching, and alkaline resist stripping. This is followed by surface prep (Cobra Bond), lamination, and drilling. The holes are cleaned by either permanganate or plasma etching and made conductive through electroless copper plating. Outer-layer circuit development is conducted by pattern plate process steps including photoresist application, circuit imaging, resist developing, copper plating, tin/lead resist plating, ammonium etching, and solder stripping. Solder mask application and surface finishing such as hot air levelling or fuse-oil reflow complete Pioneers’ wet process operations. Nickel/gold plating, if required, is outsourced. The effluent discharge at Pioneer is generated by aqueous fume scrubbing, boiler blowdown, reverse osmosis brine, various spent process solutions, and the associated rinses. In June 2019, Pioneer had a copper violation. July 1 – December 31, 2019 On July 9, 2019, OCSD issued a Notice of Violation for the previous month’s copper violation. On July 31, 2019, OCSD conducted a Compliance Inspection and resampling, during which Pioneer attributed the violation to operator error. Pioneer explained that on the day the violation occurred, a batch of Cobra Bond, which is typically treated on its own, was combined with additional wastestreams resulting in improper batch treatment. Pioneer stated that measures have been taken to ensure that all Cobra Bond batches are treated separately from all other wastestreams. The resampling results showed compliance. OCSD will continue to monitor Pioneer’s discharge and compliance status on a quarterly basis. Primatex Industries, Inc. (Permit No. 1-031036) Primatex Industries, Inc. (Primatex) performs rotary screen printing of fabrics. Water-based inks are applied to fabric by means of perforated print design screens using one of two rotary printers. The facility also has two Sanforizing machines (a method of stretching, shrinking, and fixing the woven cloth in both length and width, before cutting to reduce the shrinkage which would otherwise occur after washing), two drying machines to dry printed cloth, a sanding machine, a crinkling machine, and two industrial washing and drying machines. Wastewater is generated by the washing of the printers and the washing of cloth in the industrial washing machines. Wastewater is collected in an outside sump from where it is pumped through a lint removal unit then to the inside of a rotating drum filter constructed of screen material. The lint is trapped on the inside, while wastewater passes through the screen and is discharged to a three-stage underground clarifier with sample box. A timed spray rinse above the drum cleans the outside of debris, which falls to a screen located directly below the drum. On July 3, 2018, Primatex had a zinc violation, for which a Notice of Violation was issued on July 12, 2018. An appeal to the Notice of Violation was received by OCSD on July 27, 2018, but it was denied on August 9, 2018 since OCSD’s archive sample test result was consistent with the original test result. On August 6, 2018, OCSD conducted resampling followed by a Compliance Inspection on August 14, 2018. During both the compliance inspection and resampling, OCSD reviewed all available material safety data sheets but could not identify the source of the zinc violation. It was later discovered that a discharge agent called Parolite (used in the production of bright prints on dark fabrics, the main ingredient being Zinc formaldehyde sulfoxylate), which had not been used in over two years, may have been added to the production process by mistake. The remaining Parolite was returned to Primatex’s chemical supplier. 2-36 July 1 – December 31, 2019 On October 21, 2019 Primatex was published as significantly non-compliant for the 2018-2019 reporting period due to an acute zinc discharge violation on July 3, 2018. Primatex had no further violations during this reporting period. OCSD will continue to monitor Primatex’s discharge and compliance status on a quarterly basis. Prudential Overall Supply (Permit No. 1-071235) Prudential Overall Supply (Prudential) is in the business of garment rental and cleaning and operates a number of facilities throughout the United States. The facility in Irvine is equipped with automated laundering machinery and specializes in cleaning and redistribution of uniforms, mats, napkins, and aprons at an average rate of 24,800 pounds of laundry per day. Prudential does not operate a pretreatment system, but instead utilizes a collection basin used for suspended solids separation and a multi-stage underground clarifier. Wastewater from the facility is discharged into the open-topped-below-grade basin from which it is pumped through a screen shaker to remove lint and larger solids. After passing through the shaker, wastewater is discharged back into the basin where it flows by gravity through a multi-stage underground clarifier before discharging to the sewer system. The sample point is the final stage of the clarifier. July 1, 2019 – December 31, 2019 On July 24, 2019, OCSD issued a Compliance Requirements Letter to address Prudential’s compliance issues pertaining to stormwater management and potential discharge of solids to the sewer from the shaker screen system by October 15, 2019. Prudential requested an extension of the due date to determine the most appropriate path forward. OCSD will conduct a Compliance Inspection during the next reporting period to confirm installation of the proposed solution.

Republic Waste Services (Permit No. 1-521827) Republic Waste Services (Republic) washes the inside and outside of trash bins in a contained and partially covered area in the facility. Washwater is routed through a three-stage clarifier before discharge to the sewer. Clarifier maintenance includes regular skimming and annual pump out of the sludge buildup. In October 2018, Republic had cadmium, copper, lead and zinc violations. In November 2018, OCSD conducted a Compliance Inspection and resampling during which Republic indicated that no operational changes had been made onsite and, therefore, they were not able to identify any internal source for the violations. The company indicated that the only possible source would be from illicit materials disposed of in trash bins prior to washout, such as sand blasting dust or batteries. Republic pumped out the clarifier as part of their corrective action. The resampling results showed compliance. July 1 – December 31, 2019 On July 18, 2019, Republic had chromium, copper, lead, nickel and zinc violations again, for which a Notice of Violation was issued on August 20, 2019. On August 28, 2019, OCSD conducted a Compliance Inspection during which Republic attributed the violations to excessive solids buildup in the clarifier and carry over of the solids to the sample point. As a corrective action, Republic increased frequency of their clarifier pump-out from quarterly to monthly. OCSD increased frequency of Republic’s heavy metals self-monitoring to monthly effective December 1, 2019. On October 21, 2019 Republic was published as significantly non-compliant for the 2018-2019 reporting period due to acute cadmium, copper, lead, and zinc discharge violations on October 3, 2018. On November 7, 2019, Republic had another copper violation, for which a Notice of Violation was issued on December 3, 2019. On December 16, 2019, OCSD conducted a Compliance Inspection during which Republic attributed the violation to degradation of copper tubing attached to the heated pressure washer used in washing the trash bins. Republic had since replaced the deteriorated tubing. On December 30, 2019, OCSD issued an Order to Cease Non-Compliant Discharges and directed Republic to attend a Compliance Meeting scheduled for the following month to discuss Republic’s recurring violations. OCSD will continue to monitor Republic’s discharge and compliance status on a quarterly basis. 2-38 Star Manufacturing LLC, dba Commercial Metal Forming (Permit No. 1-600653) Star Manufacturing LLC, dba Commercial Metal Forming (Star) is a metal forming shop that specializes in stamping and forming metal tank heads on mechanical and hydraulic presses for use in the manufacture of vessels. Star’s ancillary operations include plasma cutting metal blanks, plasma and oxyacetylene trimming, metal heat treating, pressure washing finished tank heads, welding, steam cleaning, and part washing. Wastewater is generated from the steam cleaning and washing of production pieces, which are typically coated with lubricant. Wastewater is collected in an underground sump and then pumped to an equalization tank from which the wastewater is gravity-fed through bag filters before discharge to the sewer. In February and March 2019, Star had oil & grease violations. In March 2019, OCSD conducted a Compliance Inspection to determine if Star had made any improvements to its existing treatment system. Star personnel stated that they were continuing to research various technologies to ensure long term compliance with their permit limits and requirements. Star was aware that the use of bag filters is inadequate as primary treatment to remove oil and grease. In April 2019, OCSD issued a Compliance Requirements Letter requiring the submittal of a waste management proposal by May 2019, and installation of the proposed pretreatment system by June 2019 after acceptance by OCSD. While Star met the deadline for submitting the proposal, they installed the system without prior acceptance from OCSD. Star installed a zeolite multimedia filter tank equipped with a control valve that accommodates a backwash cycle to remove accumulated contaminants from the zeolite. However, the effectiveness of the backwash cycle using untreated gravity-fed water is unclear. July 1 – December 31, 2019 On July 10, 2019, OCSD conducted a Compliance Inspection and resampling during which OCSD noted that Star had not made any further improvements to the treatment system using the zeolite filter media and lacked understanding of an appropriate preventative maintenance schedule to maintain compliance. The resampling detected an oil & grease violation. On August 12, 2019, OCSD issued a Notice of Violation for the oil & grease noncompliance detected in the previous month’s resample. OCSD also issued a Compliance Requirements Letter directing Star to attend a Compliance Meeting to discuss implementation of corrective actions to develop and maintain an effective treatment system. The Compliance Meeting was held on August 21, 2019. On September 24, 2019, following the Compliance Meeting, OCSD issued another Compliance Requirements Letter requiring Star to complete the installation of the proposed treatment system by October 30, 2019. Star had since completed installation of the treatment system, improved the operation of the zeolite filter tanks, and added a treated wastewater holding tank. On October 21, 2019 Star was published as significantly non-compliant for the 2018-2019 reporting period due to chronic and acute oil & grease of mineral or petroleum discharge violations on February 15, 2019 and March 21, 2019. OCSD will continue to monitor Star’s discharge and compliance status during the next reporting period.

The non-metal bearing wastestreams undergo pH adjustment only. From January 2019 through February 2019, OCSD conducted covert downstream monitoring of Superior’s discharge during which cadmium, copper, lead, nickel, zinc and pH violations were detected. In March 2019, OCSD issued an Order to Cease Noncompliant Discharges informing Superior of OCSD’s intention to initiate administrative proceedings against Superior based on the discharge violations detected during the downstream monitoring. In April 2019, OCSD held a Compliance Meeting with Superior during which the company chose to enter into a Settlement Agreement with OCSD to settle the violations and avoid administrative proceedings. The Settlement Agreement was issued in May 2019 and included a negotiated $50,000 administrative penalty. July 1 – December 31, 2019 On July 1, 2019, OCSD issued a Probation Order requiring Superior to conduct a proper evaluation of its pretreatment system and to make any necessary improvements to achieve consistent compliance. The final compliance date for the Probation Order schedule was September 15, 2019. On August 15, 2019, OCSD conducted a Compliance Inspection and found that Superior, with the aid of their consultant, had made adequate progress in complying with their Probation Order requirements. The company also submitted all required self-monitoring & biweekly reports in a timely manner. On August 14, 2019, Superior had a cyanide (total) violation, for which issued a Notice of Violation was issued on September 12, 2019. This daily limit exceedance also resulted in a monthly average discharge limit violation for cyanide (total) for the month of August 2019. On September 23, 2019, OCSD conducted another Compliance Inspection to verify compliance with Probation Order and inquire about the cause of the recent cyanide violation. Superior’s efforts to improve compliance included: installation of new measurement equipment (ORP & pH measurement, new pumps & piping), training for treatment operators in the use of new 2-40 bench test kits for metals & improved control equipment, and an updated pretreatment system schematic and an updated Operations & Maintenance manual. On October 3, 2019, OCSD conducted a follow-up inspection and resampling and found that Superior’s consultant had evaluated the cyanide destruct system and concluded that the control equipment (pH & ORP) was faulty and needed replacement. The pH and ORP controller had already been completed by the time of the inspection. The resampling results showed compliance. On November 7, 2019, OCSD issued a Notice of Violation for the August 2019 cyanide (total) monthly limit violation. OCSD will continue to monitor Superior’s discharge and compliance status during the next reporting period to determine if additional enforcement is necessary. Superior Processing (1-021403) Superior Processing is a metal plating job shop specializing in electroless nickel/immersion gold, electrolytic nickel/gold, electrolytic and immersion silver, and immersion tin plating on customer supplied printed circuit boards. Wastewater is generated from these wet operations and the associated rinses. Wastewater is segregated into two wastestreams. The metal-bearing waste is routed to continuous ion exchange system and the cyanide-bearing waste is routed to the batch cyanide destruct system. July 1 – December 31, 2019 On July 30, 2019, Superior Processing had a nickel concentration violation and a nickel mass violation, for which a Notice of Violation was issued on August 21, 2019. This daily limit exceedance also resulted in a monthly average discharge limit violation for nickel for the month of July 2019. On October 3, 2019, OCSD conducted a Compliance Inspection and resampling during which OCSD learned that the effluent from the cyanide destruct system is discharged directly to the sewer without going through the ion exchange system to remove any nickel that might be present in the cyanide-bearing wastestreams. OCSD believes that Superior Processing has not had nickel violations in the past because previous OCSD sampling had been conducted when there was no simultaneous discharge from the cyanide destruct system. Thus, OCSD suspects that the nickel violations came from the cyanide destruct system effluent, as there was simultaneous discharge from that system at the time of sampling. Hence, OCSD directed Superior Processing to plumb the cyanide treatment effluent to the ion exchange system for metals removal prior to discharge to the sewer. The resampling results showed compliance. On October 14, 2019, OCSD issued a Notice of Violation for the July 2019 nickel monthly limit violation. Though Superior Processing had already replumbed the cyanide treatment system effluent through the ion exchange system, on December 3, 2019, Superior Processing had another nickel concentration violation and another nickel mass violation. OCSD will issue a Notice of Violation and conduct a follow-up Compliance Inspection for these recent violations during the next reporting period. Tayco Engineering, Inc.

Tayco uses a batch treatment system (hydroxide precipitation) for the etcher and scrub sink rinsewaters, spent developer/stripper solutions and rinses, and etcher fume scrubber bleed off. Spent etching solution and resist stripper solids are wastehauled offsite. In December 2018, Tayco had copper daily and monthly average discharge limit violations. In February 2019, OCSD conducted a Compliance Inspection during which Tayco attributed the violation to a wastewater treatment operator forgetting to check the wastewater for copper prior to batch discharge. Tayco’s corrective 2-41 action included additional checks for copper prior to batch discharge and better recordkeeping through a more detailed batch discharge log. July 1 – December 31, 2019 In September 2019, Tayco had another copper monthly average discharge limit violation. OCSD will issue a Notice of Violation for this monthly limit exceedance during the next reporting period. Thompson Energy Resources, LLC (Permit No. 1-521773) Thompson Energy Resources, LLC (Thompson Energy) produces crude oil by separating ground water from the oil/groundwater mixture extracted from multiple wells onsite through heating and chemical treatment. Resultant water is discharged to the sewer system. In July 2018, Thompson Energy had an oil & grease violation. In September 2018, OCSD conducted a Compliance Inspection and resampling during which Thompson Energy attributed the source of the violation to a bad batch of chemicals coupled with high temperature processing. In mid-September 2018, Thompson Energy submitted a corrective action report indicating that the company had replaced its chemical vendor and implemented new chemicals at the facility. The resampling results showed compliance. In June 2019, Thompson Energy had another oil & grease of mineral or petroleum origin violation. July 1 – December 31, 2019 On July 9, 2019, OCSD issued a Notice of Violation for the previous month’s oil & grease violation. On August 12, 2019, OCSD conducted a Compliance Inspection, during which Thompson Energy indicated that the source of the violation was failure of LMI chemical pumps on site. During the site inspection, Thompson Energy provided a corrective action report indicating that the dosing pumps and associated piping have been replaced. On August 28, 2019, Thompson Energy had another oil & grease violation, for which a Notice of Violation was issued on October 28, 2019. On November 12, 2019, OCSD conducted a Compliance Inspection and resampling during which OCSD determined that Thompson Energy’s ongoing oil & grease violations are being caused by insufficient retention time due to one of the two clarification tanks being out of service, along with other multiple operational issues. During the next reporting period, OCSD will pursue escalated enforcement action as a result of the continued noncompliance.

In the Compliance Meeting, TTM submitted information detailing their efforts to 2-42 review the pretreatment system and explained the improvements that had been implemented prior to the meeting. OCSD required TTM Technologies to submit an updated pretreatment system diagram and operations and maintenance manual (O&M) by December 2018, which was extended to the following quarter due to delays. In January 2019, TTM submitted its O&M Manual which contained the updated pretreatment system schematics. In June 2019, TTM had another copper violation. July 1 – December 31, 2019 On July 18, 2019, OCSD conducted a Compliance Inspection to investigate the copper violation. During the inspection, TTM stated that their review of their ion exchange regeneration schedule indicated that the final (‘scavenger’) stage required more frequent regeneration, which by that time had already been implemented. On July 22, 2019, OCSD issued the Notice of Violation for the copper violation. TTM had no further violations during this reporting period. OCSD will continue to monitor TTM’s discharge and compliance status on a quarterly basis. Ultra-Pure Metal Finishing, Inc. (Permit No. 1-021703) Ultra-Pure Metal Finishing, Inc. (Ultra-Pure) is a metal finishing job shop. Customer-supplied parts made of aluminum and steel are received for anodizing or chemfilm application.

SAWPA is a Joint Powers Authority (JPA) consisting of five member agencies: Eastern Municipal Water District (EMWD), Inland Empire Utilities Agency (IEUA), Orange County Water District (OCWD), San Bernardino Valley Municipal Water District (Valley District), and Western Municipal Water District (WMWD). SAWPA's program in water quality management is integrated with those of other local, state, and federal agencies. The Inland Empire Brine Line (Brine Line) is a pipeline designed to carry saline wastewater from the Upper Basin to the Orange County Sanitation District (OCSD) for disposal, after treatment, into the Pacific Ocean. This wastewater consists of a mixture of desalter brine and saline wastewater from Industrial Users (IUs), but also some temporary domestic discharges. The wastewater is treated by OCSD to comply with environmental standards before discharge to the ocean outfall. The capacity of the Brine Line available to SAWPA is 30 MG per day (MGD). The average daily discharge was 10.88 MGD for this reporting period. 3.1 Brine Line System Pretreatment Program Overview SAWPA has a wastewater discharge ordinance applicable to the Brine Line. It is essentially, with some appropriate modifications, substantially similar to OCSD’s Wastewater Discharge Regulations Ordinance. In addition, a Memorandum of Understanding is in place to delineate pretreatment permitting, monitoring, enforcement, and reporting responsibilities between SAWPA and OCSD. SAWPA has entered into a Multijurisdictional Pretreatment Agreement (Agreement) with the City of Beaumont (Beaumont), Eastern Municipal Water District (EMWD), Inland Empire Utilities Agency (IEUA), Jurupa Community Services District (JCSD), San Bernardino Municipal Water Department (SBMWD), San Bernardino Valley Municipal Water District (Valley District), Western Municipal Water District (WMWD), and Yucaipa Valley Water District (YVWD). This Agreement delineates the pretreatment responsibilities between SAWPA and the agencies to carry out and enforce a pretreatment program to control discharges from IUs located in their service areas. SAWPA owns and operates the Brine Line above the Orange County line and has purchased 17 MGD of treatment and disposal capacity rights at OCSD’s treatment facilities. As of December 31, 2019, there are forty-two (42) direct connections including twelve (12) emergency connections discharging to the Brine Line. Twenty (20) indirect discharge Permittees located within the SAWPA service area discharge to the four (4) Brine Line Collection Stations (Collection Stations). The Collection Stations are located in, and operated by, the following agencies: EMWD, IEUA, San Bernardino Municipal Water Department (SBMWD) on behalf of Valley District, and the City of Corona on behalf of WMWD. SAWPA has the permitting responsibilities for all Liquid Waste Haulers (LWH) that use the Collection Stations. As of December 31, 2019, there are ten (10) LWH permitted by SAWPA to use the Collection Stations. The SAWPA LWH permits assign a primary collection station and alternate collection station should the primary collection station become unavailable due to repairs or closure. 3-2 During the reporting period (July 1, 2019 through December 31, 2019) SAWPA continued implementation of numerous program documents and worked to improve the operation and implementation of the Pretreatment Program. A multijurisdictional pretreatment agreement between SAWPA and the member/contract agencies defines the roles and responsibilities of SAWPA and the Agencies. SAWPA and the member and contract agencies use a procedures document for uniform and consistent implementation of the Pretreatment Program. Orange County Sanitation District (OCSD) has completed the process of updating and revising their Sewer User Ordinance, Ordinance OCSD-53. As Delegated Control Authority to OCSD SAWPA is required to update their Ordinance to include relevant OCSD revisions. SAWPA has developed draft Ordinance No. 9 which has been revised to incorporate the updates within the new OCSD Ordinance. SAWPA submitted the draft Ordinance to OCSD for their review and concurrence on October 17, 2019. It is anticipated SAWPA will receive comments from OCSD regarding the draft Ordinance in early 2020. Reporting below is individually presented for each SAWPA Pretreatment Program member/contract agency. 3.2 SAWPA Pretreatment Program 3.2.1 The City of Beaumont (Beaumont) Description of Beaumont Beaumont is the owner and operator of the City of Beaumont wastewater treatment plant and will be responsible for the implementation of certain pretreatment program activities for the industries connected to the Brine Line within its service area upon its connection to the Brine Line in 2020. Beaumont is being required by the Santa Ana Regional Water Quality Control Board to proactively manage salinity in the two underlying groundwater basins, the Beaumont and San Timoteo Groundwater Management Zones. As a result, Beaumont has elected to install Reverse Osmosis (RO) treatment of the tertiary treated wastewater treatment plant effluent. The RO concentrate will be discharged to the Brine Line. The Beaumont wastewater treatment plant discharges to Cooper’s Creek, tributary to San Timoteo Creek, which is tributary to the Santa Ana River. By discharging the bine concentrate to the Brine Line, discharge of a minimum 685 tons of salt to the Santa Ana River are avoided, benefiting the downstream groundwater basins. The RO facility is expected to be completed, tested and on-line and connection to the Brine Line completed in mid-2020. Currently there are no permitted users within the Beaumont Service Area. 3.2.2 Eastern Municipal Water District (EMWD) Description of EMWD EMWD is a Municipal Water District responsible for the implementation of certain pretreatment activities for the indirect and direct industries that discharge to EMWD’s Non-Reclaimable Waste Line, which discharges to the Brine Line at Reach V. In the face of declining groundwater levels and continuing droughts, EMWD was formed in 1950 to secure additional water for a lightly populated area of western Riverside County. EMWD joined the Metropolitan Water District of Southern California a year later to augment its local supplies with recently available imported water. EMWD also provides sewer service throughout its area. The EMWD headquarters are located in Perris, California and serves 3-3 the eastern portion of the watershed in Riverside County, as well as portions of the Santa Margarita Watershed, south of the Santa Ana River Watershed. Enforcement Action • Infineon Technologies Americas Corporation (Permit No. I1039-3) A Notice of Violation and Order for Corrective Action (NOV/OCA) was issued to Infineon Technologies Americas Corporation (Infineon) on November 20, 2019 for a pollutant limitation violation. On November 11, 2019 EMWD received a low pH alarm at its Integrated Operations Center from an inline pH meter at the EMWD Collection Station. The pH was at 5.7 S.U. a violation of the Daily Minimum Discharge Limitation of 6.0 S.U. as stated in Permit No. I1039-3. The NOV/OCA required the permittee to submit a written report detailing the cause, and corrective taken to prevent the recurrence of the violation by no later than December 4, 2019. Infineon responded on November 27, 2019 and attributed the cause of the violation to a fouled pH sensor which caused the system to under correct for chemical addition. Immediately upon discovery of the pH violation Infineon cleaned and re-calibrated the pH meter. Infineon made a decision to clean the pH sensor twice a day to prevent any re-occurrence, and in addition the truckers who haul are now required to take the pH with a handheld pH meter for confirmation of the pH with the inline pH meter. Implementation of the corrective actions identified above, and follow- up sampling indicated compliance; subsequently, the enforcement action was closed.

YVWD was formed on September 14, 1971, when the Secretary of State of the State of California certified and declared formation of the District. The District operates under the County Water District Law, being Division 12 of the State of California Water Code. Although the immediate function of the District at the time was to provide water service, the YVWD currently provides a variety of services to residential, commercial and industrial customers. The YVWD provides sewer collection and sewer treatment services. Sewer treatment takes place at the highly advanced Wochholz Regional Water Recycling Facility that provides advanced treatment, including the capability to demineralize the recycled water. In 2012, the YVWD completed an extension of the Inland Empire Brine Line operated by the Santa Ana Watershed Project Authority. The brine disposal facility is critical to ensure the YVWD meets the stringent water quality objectives set by the Regional Water Quality Control Board for the Yucaipa Management Zone, Beaumont Management Zone and the San Timoteo Management Zone. Although YVWD currently has no permitted industries discharging to the Brine Line they have participated in Brine Line activities, including training conducted by SAWPA personnel, since 2013. They conduct the industrial user survey upstream of the Henry Wochholz Regional Water Recycling Facility that began discharge to the Brine Line in July of 2016, in accordance with SAWPA policies and procedures. The Henry Wochholz Regional Water Recycling Facility service area includes three industrial permittees: Enforcement Action There was no enforcement action during this reporting period. 3.3 Permittees in Significant Noncompliance (SNC) At the end of each quarter, EPA requires the evaluation of each IU's compliance status using a six- month period. Each IU is evaluated for SNC four times during the year, and the total evaluation period covers 15 months (beginning with the last quarter of the previous pretreatment year through the end of the current year). As of December 31, 2019, of the active seventy-two (72) Permittees, there were no permittees classified as SNC. An industry was determined to be in SNC if it incurred a violation that met one or more of the criteria listed below as provided in 40 CFR, Part 403. • Chronic violations of wastewater discharge limits are defined as those in which 66% or more of all measurements for the same pollutant taken during a consecutive six-month period exceed (by any magnitude) a numeric pretreatment standard or requirement including instantaneous limits as defined by 40 CFR 403.3(l). 3-11 • Technical review criteria (TRC) violation are defined as those in which 33% or more of all measurements taken for the same pollutant during a consecutive six-month period equal or exceeds the product of the numeric pretreatment standard or requirement including instantaneous limits, as defined by 40 CFR 403.3(l) multiplied by the applicable TRC (TRC=1.4 for BOD, TSS, fats, oil and grease, and 1.2 for all other pollutants except pH). • Any other violation of a pretreatment standard or requirement (daily maximum or long term average, instantaneous limit or narrative standard) that has caused, alone or in combination with other discharges, interference or pass through (including endangering the health of POTW or SAWPA personnel or the general public). • Any discharge of a pollutant that has caused imminent endangerment to human health, welfare, or the environment; or has resulted in POTW’s or SAWPA’s exercise of emergency authority to halt or prevent such a discharger. • Failure to meet within 90 days after the scheduled date, a compliance schedule milestone contained in a local control mechanism or enforcement order, for starting construction, completing construction, or for attaining final compliance. • Failure to provide, within 45 days of the due date, any required reports such a baseline monitoring reports, 90-day compliance reports, periodic self-monitoring reports, and reports with compliance schedules. • Failure to pay, within 30 days, all applicable user application, permit and enforcement penalty fees. • Failure to accurately report noncompliance. • Any other violation or group of violations, which may include a violation of Best Management Practices, which the POTW or SAWPA believes will adversely affect the operation or implementation of the SAWPA’s pretreatment program, or the Brine Line or tributaries thereto. A summary of Permittees in SNC is presented in Table 3.1. TABLE 3.1 Summary of SAWPA and Member/Contract Agency Permittees in Significant Noncompliance (SNC), July 1 – December 31, 2019 EMWD, IEUA, JCSD, SBMWD, Valley District, SAWPA, & WMWD Permittees Company Name Permit No. Reporting or Discharge Violation None 3.4 Future Projects that will Affect Quantity of Discharge to the Brine Line System California Institution for Women (CIW) which is primarily domestic (reclaimable) wastewater will be diverted to the Pine Avenue Sewer, away from the Brine Line. Diversion of the CIW wastewater to the Pine Avenue Sewer away from the Brine Line is anticipated 3-12 for Fiscal Year 2020/2021. City of Beaumont is actively exploring alternatives and developing plans to upgrade the City’s existing wastewater treatment plant. These plans include a salinity management strategy to comply with basin plan objectives set by the Regional Water Quality Control Board for the Beaumont and San Timoteo Groundwater Management Zones. These proposed improvements are contingent on the ability to tie the discharge from the proposed treatment plant upgrade to the Brine Line for brine conveyance. The City of Beaumont is not within the Brine Line Service Area, so therefore requires authorization from OCSD General Manager prior to discharge. The City of Beaumont submitted an official request to discharge to the Brine Line in late 2016. SAWPA requested additional information before submitting to OCSD a request for authorization for the discharge from the City of Beaumont to the Brine Line from OCSD in early 2017. Following resolution of requirements given to SAWPA and the City of Beaumont by OCSD authorization for connection to the Brine Line is anticipated for early January 2020. Rialto Bioenergy is a food waste-to-energy facility in Rialto, California, which has submitted a wastewater discharge permit application to SAWPA and Valley District. The facility is expected to come online and begin discharge to the Brine Line in mid-2020 following issuance of a wastewater discharge permit. 3.5 SAWPA Special Projects SAWPA conducted the following Special Project efforts during the reporting period: 1.

Herberg, General Manager Originator: Lorenzo Tyner, Assistant General Manager SUBJECT: COMPLETE FIELD INSTRUMENT CALIBRATION SOLUTION GENERAL MANAGER'S RECOMMENDATION RECOMMENDATION: Recommend to the Board of Directors to: A. Award a Professional Services Agreement to Beamex, Inc. to provide Instrumentation Data Management Services, Specification No. CS-2020-1102, for a total amount not to exceed $257,714; B. Award a sole source purchase order for the purchase of instrumentation hardware in an amount not to exceed $259,124; and C. Approve a contingency in the amount of $77,525 (15%) for both procurements. BACKGROUND The Orange County Sanitation District (Sanitation District)uses electronic field instruments to measure flow,level,temperature,pressure,and other analytical data (pH,turbidity,conductivity, nitrate,etc.)throughout different process areas.These instruments must be regularly inspected, calibrated,and maintained to ensure accurate monitoring of our operations.Staff is recommending implementation of a complete solution for the collection and reporting of instrumentation data for calibration,maintenance,and inspection activities performed on treatment plant equipment,in accordance with regulatory and reliability requirements.The Software and Professional Services contract was competitively bid and Beamex,Inc.was the only responsive and responsible bidder to respond. RELEVANT STANDARDS ·Ensure the public’s money is wisely spent ·Maintain a culture of improving efficiency to reduce the cost to provide the current service level or standard ·Protect Orange County Sanitation District assets ·Maintain a proactive asset management program Orange County Sanitation District Printed on 6/2/2020Page 1 of 3 powered by Legistar™ File #:2020-1048 Agenda Date:6/10/2020 Agenda Item No:3. PROBLEM The current instrument calibration process is manual with significant areas of inefficiencies. Sanitation District process and field tools do not efficiently utilize the technicians “wrench-time.”Each field tool serves a single purpose of measurement.These measured readings are hand transcribed on paper and later manually uploaded to the Computer Maintenance Management System.Data extrapolation for preventive maintenance optimization and root cause analysis absorb multiple resources to effect improvement towards asset management.In addition,beneficial occupancy for projects are time consuming by not having an efficient process to compile project instrumentation data. PROPOSED SOLUTION Purchase software and hardware to automate the calibration process workflow from data collection to analysis and establish a standard methodology for calibration across both Plants. TIMING CONCERNS N/A RAMIFICATIONS OF NOT TAKING ACTION A decision not to purchase the Beamex instrument calibration solution and related professional services would result in the continued use of manual unverified calibration strategies. PRIOR COMMITTEE/BOARD ACTIONS N/A ADDITIONAL INFORMATION On January 14,2020,the Sanitation District issued a Request for Proposals (RFP)for a field instrument calibration solution.The following evaluation criterion were described in the Request for Proposals and used to determine the most qualified firm.

Herberg, General Manager Originator: Lorenzo Tyner, Assistant General Manager SUBJECT: GANN APPROPRIATIONS LIMIT FOR FISCAL YEAR 2020-21 GENERAL MANAGER'S RECOMMENDATION RECOMMENDATION: Recommend to the Board of Directors to: Adopt Resolution No.OCSD 20-XX,entitled:“A Resolution of the Board of Directors of the Orange County Sanitation District Establishing the Annual Appropriations Limit for Fiscal Year 2020-21 for the District in accordance with the Provisions of Division 9 of Title 1 of the California Government Code”. BACKGROUND This routine annual action adopts a resolution establishing the spending limit for “proceeds of taxes” in accordance with Article XIII B of the Constitution of the State of California (Section 7910 of the Government Code).The Orange County Sanitation District’s (Sanitation District)annual appropriations are well below the limit. In 1979,Proposition 4 (the Gann Initiative)was approved adding Article XIII B to the State Constitution.The provisions of this article place limits on the amount of revenue that can be appropriated by all entities of government.This initiative was designed to constrain government expenditures by placing an annual limit on jurisdictions'revenue and appropriation growth.The Appropriation Limit is based on actual appropriations during the 1978-1979 fiscal year,as increased each year using specified population and inflationary growth factors.This annual allowance growth is linked to changes in population and cost of living.The passage of Proposition 111 in June 1990 amended Article XIIIB,making changes in the base year upon which the appropriations limit is based, establishing new cost of living factors and new population factors for use by local governments,and increasing appropriations not subject to the limit (primarily qualified capital outlay projects).The financial constraints of Article XIII B apply to the State,all cities,counties,special districts,and all other political subdivisions.

BACKGROUND Currently,the Orange County Sanitation District (Sanitation District)invoices Santa Ana Watershed Project Authority (SAWPA)on a quarterly basis for the wastewater discharge received from the SARI line.Annually,the rates for flow,biochemical oxygen demand (BOD),and total suspended solids (TSS)are calculated based upon the fiscal year budget for treatment and disposal costs and the 1996 Wastewater Treatment and Disposal agreement.The rates calculated for each constituent for FY 2020-21 for wastewater discharge are: FLOW $213.30 BOD $304.47 TSS $449.36 The FY 2020-21 rates result in approximately a 3.5%decrease in the Flow rate,a 4.7%decrease in the BOD rate,and a 4.7%decrease in the TSS rate.Using the 2017 Rate Study,the Sanitation District determined discharge rates for SAWPA.Changes to the allocation parameters between discharge constituents and the change in equivalent usage per EDU for each constituent resulted in rate increases that were larger than SAWPA anticipated or budgeted.SAWPA requested that the Sanitation District spread their rate increases over a two-year period to minimize the impact to their budget.SAWPA rates have now caught up with the original rate model.As a result,the FY 2020-21 rates decrease approximately 3.5%for the Flow rate,4.7%for the BOD rate,and 4.7%for the TSS rate. These rates are separate from the rates charged for additional capacity purchases by SAWPA.

There are key differences over expiring coverages -the historic $1 billion All Risk Limit and extensive flood limits previously provided are not sustainable.Such flood limits are worth millions of dollars in the market currently,as flood is viewed as a catastrophic exposure,in the same vein that the earthquake peril is viewed.The coverage can be bought,but the costs are extremely high,as available capacity in the market is going to the highest bidder,especially with what is expected to be an above average hurricane season for 2020. The extreme uncertainty in the market is due mainly to COVID-19 and its impacts.As such,the Sanitation District cannot realistically obtain the same coverage limits,especially on flood,and if attempting to obtain comparable,it would be a 500%increase.The extreme degree of uncertainty that COVID-19 introduced in the insurance industry,means extreme rate hikes,at least in the short Orange County Sanitation District Printed on 6/3/2020Page 1 of 4 powered by Legistar™ File #:2020-1091 Agenda Date:6/10/2020 Agenda Item No:7. that COVID-19 introduced in the insurance industry,means extreme rate hikes,at least in the short term until the numbers play out for the insurance industry over the next few years. The cost of insurance coverage for Fiscal Year is $2,052,663, an increase of $427,601 (26.3%). The Sanitation District’s budget provides funds for the renewal of the following four (4)major insurances for Sanitation District operations: 1)All-Risk Property and Flood Insurance (Includes Boiler & Machinery) The All-Risk Property and Flood Insurance Program (Property Insurance)provides comprehensive coverage for much of the Sanitation District’s real and personal property regarding virtually all perils including fire, flood, and business interruption. Current Property Insurance limits are $1 billion dollars for most perils other than flood and earthquakes,and $300 million dollars for flood,with many sub-limits for various situations.In order to reach $1 billion dollars in limits,the broker had to arrange for more than a dozen different insurers. The SIR is $250,000 per occurrence for most types of losses. Since the late 1990’s,the Property Insurance has been with a nationwide joint purchase property insurance program called Public Entity Property Insurance Program (PEPIP),one of the world’s largest property programs.It is important to note that this joint purchase property insurance offers the purchasing power of numerous large public entities without the pooling or sharing of coverage or losses. The Boiler &Machinery Insurance component of the property insurance,provides comprehensive coverage for loss caused by machinery breakdown and explosion of steam boilers or other covered process equipment,including damage to the equipment itself and damage to other property caused by covered accidents.The current Boiler &Machinery Insurance Program provides coverage of $100 million per occurrence with deductibles ranging from $25,000 to $350,000 for losses caused by covered machinery breakdown (e.g.,motors, steam turbines,digesters,co-gen engines).Damages to the equipment,as well as damages to other property and improvements from machinery breakdown,are covered by the Boiler & Machinery Insurance.This program augments the Sanitation District’s All-Risk Property Insurance that covers perils such as fire and flood. The estimated increase cost for All-Risk Property and Flood is $1,167,866,an increase of $362,522 (45%). 2)Excess General Liability Insurance The Sanitation District’s Excess General Liability Insurance Program is currently provided through the California Municipal Excess Liability Program (CAMEL)and its sister program,the Alliant National Municipal Liability Program (ANML).The Sanitation District has participated in the CAMEL program since FY 1996-97. This program currently provides the Sanitation District with a $40 million dollar policy of comprehensive coverage for municipal liability,bodily injury and property damage,and personal injury.The program was structured to also include Employment Practices and Public Officials Errors &Omissions coverage.The $40 million dollar coverage has a self-insured deductible of $500,000.Since 1997,the Employment Practices portion of coverage has beenOrange County Sanitation District Printed on 6/3/2020Page 2 of 4 powered by Legistar™ File #:2020-1091 Agenda Date:6/10/2020 Agenda Item No:7. deductible of $500,000.Since 1997,the Employment Practices portion of coverage has been enhanced from a $2 million-dollar sub-limit to the full policy limit of $40 million dollars. The estimated cost for Excess General Liability is $584,716, an increase of $69,347 (13%). 3)Excess Workers’ Compensation The Excess Workers’Compensation insurance coverage is with the California State Association of Counties Excess Insurance Authority (CSAC EIA).The Sanitation District has participated in this program or its predecessor since 2003.The Excess Workers’ Compensation program currently provides “Statutory”(unlimited)coverage with a self-insured retention (SIR),or deductible,of $1 million.The use of Excess Workers’Compensation Insurance dates back to the late 1980’s. The estimated cost for Excess Workers’Compensation is $207,000,a decrease of $10,762 (5%). 4)Earthquake Insurance The Sanitation District previously carried earthquake insurance as part of its Property Insurance,but in the last 15 years earthquake insurance proved difficult to obtain or not cost- effective.The Sanitation District asked its insurance broker each year to survey the market to see if rates have changed.Finally,in 2015 a plan was created to insure several key Sanitation District structures identified by Engineering,thus keeping the cost in line.The insurance is a high deductible plan with a limit of $25 million dollars in total. The estimated cost Earthquake insurance is $93,079, an increase $6,494 (8%). RELEVANT STANDARDS ·Protect Orange County Sanitation District assets PROBLEM Insurance is necessary to protect the Sanitation District’s assets and financial well-being.

There are over 20 carriers participating on OCSD’s programs in total, and it is not possible to complete it without the use of many non-admitted carriers. Public agencies in CA tend to not have as many admitted carriers (if any) on their program as these are generally more expensive and less flexible in terms of coverage than non-admitted. The main benefit is that admitted carriers have access to the California Guarantee Insurance Fund (CIGA), and non-admitted do not. The normal process for determining or obviating against not having access to the fund is to use only financially strong non-admitted carriers. The carriers’ ratings (AM Best, middle column) are all A rated, and most are on the “large” sixer in terms of assets.

Herberg, General Manager FROM:Lorenzo TynerAssistant General Manager SUBJECT: FY 2020-21 Property – Liability Insurance Program At the March Administration Committee and April Board meeting, staff and the Sanitation District’s operational insurance broker presented information on OCSD’s insurance program. The Committee requested that additional information, specifically regarding retention, and the CSRMA and PRISM (EIA) programs and how they might be appropriate for OCSD. Staff and our broker, Alliant, will provide a comprehensive presentation at the June Administration Committee meeting. Retention Retention refers to the amount of money an insured person or business is initially responsible for in the event of a claim. Also called a “Self-Insured Retention”, or “SIR”, it is akin to a deductible and premium tends to go down, as retentions go up. Annually, as part of the renewal process, our insurance broker advises staff on various options regarding retention levels. Last year, we did receive an alternative option at $1 million retention for Property insurance (see table below). However, it was determined that the current structure (carriers/layout) of the program was most competitive based on what has historically been important to the District. The premium savings that would be achieved by doubling the retention to $1 million level was deemed not material relative to the increase in risk. Our broker has stated that an increase to $1 million would likely yield similar results in 2020. 2019 Property - Options at Varying Retentions Each and Every Claim - Retention Total Insurable Value (TIV)Total Cost Rate Per $100 500,000 2,173,424,381 $805,344 0.037 1,000,000 2,173,424,381 $767,128 0.035 Dollar Change -($38,216)(0.002) Percent Change 0.00% -5% 0.047453 FY 2020-21 Property – Liability Insurance Program May 20, 2020Page 2 2020 Property - Options at Varying Retentions After a review of the Program and its limits, we have determined that the historic $1 billion All Risk (AR) Limit is no longer sustainable. Flood is now viewed as a catastrophic exposure, in the same vein that the earthquake peril is viewed. The extensive flood limits previously provided are not sustainable. Although such limits can still be obtained as shown in Option 1, maintaining these limits would increase current premiums fivefold.

These estimates may change between now and the receipt of final quotes in June. California Sanitation Risk Management Authority (CSRMA) The California Sanitation Risk Management Authority (CSRMA) provides broad coverage and risk management services to its members. Functioning as a Joint Powers Authority, CSRMA provides various services, including Pooled Liability, Primary Insurance, Property Insurance, Workers' Compensation, and Ancillary Coverages. FY 2020-21 Property – Liability Insurance Program May 20, 2020Page 3 Based on these broad services, the Administration Committee requested staff research CSRMA’s program to understanding the application process and to determine if they would be a cost-effective option for the Sanitation District. CSRMA does not have written criteria for acceptance of new members, but rather is “open” and wants to be welcoming to all special districts that have wastewater operations in the State. Instead, their process is to have a Committee review application and determine eligibility based on loss history and whether they would be a net positive or net negative to the group based on that history. There is an application fee to cover the initial cost of underwriting a new member, however, it would be waived for OCSD. There is a member application. This has been completed by staff and Alliant based on information on file. To provide more detail on what CSRMA programs may be of assistance to OCSD, they have three main insurance programs, Property, Liability and Workers’ Comp: A. Property – CSRMA participates in the same Property Insurance Program that OCSD does, Alliant’s Public Entity Program (APIP). We have a higher retention at $500K than the average CSRMA member, and although we are checking, it is unlikely that OCSD would see a benefit by participating in APIP through CSRMA when it currently participates directly. B. Workers’ Compensation – The CSRMA Workers’ Compensation program is a primary program, meaning members have no deductible. As such, it is not a good fit for OCSD as it carries $1 million retention. Premium in CSRMA’s program therefore would be much higher, and the process involving administering claims would be much different, likely in a way that would be unacceptable to OCSD. (Claims control). C. Liability – We are pursuing an option here whereby OCSD could join CSRMA’s “Pooled Liability Program”. The mechanics of this likely would need to be different than for the average CSRMA member, as OCSD is significantly larger, and both parties would likely be better off not sharing losses with one another in the typical formula that governs the member cost relationship. Rather, it was believed that an arrangement where the parties group purchases excess insurance could provide a benefit to both, so this was pursued. There may be opportunities where both CSRMA and OCSD would benefit in a closer relationship in the area of Safety and Loss Control. Both entities have highly developed safety and loss control programs, so a closer relationship in this area would likely sharpen both programs. Attached is the response from CSRMA regarding OCSD’s inquiry regarding membership and rates. Based on staff research and the attached response from CSRMA, it does not appear that CSRMA is a good option for OCSD for any lines of coverage at this point in time, FY 2020-21 Property – Liability Insurance Program May 20, 2020Page 4 although it may behoove us to keep lines of communication open with CSRMA for possible future opportunities. Public Risk Innovation, Solutions, and Management (PRISM) Additionally, the Administration Committee, requested that staff research Public Risk Innovation, Solutions, and Management (PRISM) (formerly known as (CSAC EIA). PRISM is a member directed risk sharing pool. In 1979, 29 California counties formed CSAC Excess Insurance Authority, a Joint Powers Authority, pursuant to Article 1, Chapter 5, Division 7, Title 1, of the California Government Code (Section 6500 et seq.). The sole purpose of this new JPA was to find cost-effective insurance solutions and risk management services for members. In 2020, the EIA became Public Risk Innovation, Solutions, and Management. PRISM’s successful approach to insurance has been noticed across the state of California. Membership has expanded to include 95% of counties, 70% of cities, as well as educational organizations, special districts, housing authorities, fire districts, and 27 other Joint Powers Authorities. In 2019, the Board of Directors approved expanding outside of California. OCSD has long participated in its Excess Workers’ Compensation Program. Staff has received feedback from PRISM regarding OCSD’s potential participation in their Property and Excess Liability Programs (see the attached letter). Based on OCSD’s size, staff research and the attached letter from PRISM, it appears OCSD’s inclusion into PRISM at this time does not work financially, and again, it may behoove us to keep lines of communication open with PRISM for possible future opportunities. Status/Description of OCSD Current Program The Sanitation District’s budget provides funds for the renewal of the following four (4) major insurances for Sanitation District operations: 1)Excess General Liability Insurance The Sanitation District’s Excess General Liability Insurance Program is currently provided through the Alliant National Municipal Liability Program (ANML). The Sanitation District has participated in the ANML, and its predecessor namesake, the California Municipal Excess Liability Program (CAMEL), since FY 1996-97. This program currently provides the Sanitation District with a $40 million limit of comprehensive coverage for municipal liability, bodily injury and property damage, and personal injury. The program was structured to also include Employment Practices and Public Officials Errors & Omissions coverage. The $40 million coverage has a self-insured deductible of $500,000. Since 1997, the Employment FY 2020-21 Property – Liability Insurance Program May 20, 2020Page 5 Practices portion of coverage has been enhanced from a $2 million sub-limit to the full policy limit of $40 million. The limits are provided by three carriers in a layered structure, Security National, Berkley National and Great American. See attached list of carriers that our broker is currently engaged with in the renewal marketing process. 2) Excess Workers’ Compensation The Excess Workers’ Compensation insurance coverage is with the California State Association of Counties Excess Insurance Authority (CSAC EIA). The Sanitation District has participated in this program or its predecessor since 2003. The Excess Workers’ Compensation program currently provides “Statutory” (unlimited) coverage with a self-insured retention (SIR), or deductible, of $1 million. The use of Excess Workers’ Compensation Insurance dates back to the late 1980’s. 3) All-Risk Property and Flood Insurance (Includes Boiler & Machinery Insurance) The All-Risk Property and Flood Insurance Program (Property Insurance) provides comprehensive coverage for much of the Sanitation District’s real and personal property and business interruption from all perils not excluded, including fire and flood. The most significant peril excluded is earthquake, as is the peril of pandemic. To obtain property insurance, the District participates in the Alliant Public Entity Property Insurance Program, a group purchase insurance program with thousands of public entity participants. In operation since the ‘90s, the program provides extreme buying power for public agencies with a breadth of coverage not found in the open commercial insurance market. For OCSD, current Property Insurance limits are $1 billion for most perils other than flood, and a $150 million flood limit for buildings located in Zones A&V and $300 million for buildings in all other flood zones. Generous sub-limits for various situations are provided for as standard offerings. Earthquake coverage is purchased separately for specific buildings. In order to provide a complete set of coverage with a maximum of $1 billion in limits, the Program utilizes the global insurance marketplace with 20 different insurers taking a different degree of risk in a layered and quota-share structure. See list of current carriers attached. The SIR is $500,000 per occurrence for most types of losses. Given the overall extreme tightening in the insurance market, it is believed that in order to keep the price of coverage somewhat comparable to the expiring at the same retention that the final limit of coverage for the Program will drop from $1 billion to $500 million. Given the value, construction type, and spread of the facilities relative to the expected cost to keep the limit at $1 billion, it is believed that the $500 million FY 2020-21 Property – Liability Insurance Program May 20, 2020Page 6 limit would be sufficient for a worst case scenario for coverages provided in the program, primarily, fire. The Boiler & Machinery Insurance Program, part of the property insurance, provides comprehensive coverage for loss caused by machinery breakdown and explosion of steam boilers or other covered process equipment, including damage to the equipment itself and damage to other property caused by covered accidents. The current Boiler & Machinery Insurance Program provides coverage of $100 million per occurrence with deductibles ranging from $25,000 to $350,000 for losses caused by covered machinery breakdown (e.g., motors, steam turbines, digesters, co-gen engines). Damages to the equipment, as well as damages to other property and improvements caused by the machinery breakdown, are covered by the Boiler & Machinery Insurance. This program augments the Sanitation District’s All-Risk Property Insurance that covers perils such as fire and flood. 4) Earthquake InsuranceThe District purchases a separate earthquake policy with limits of $25 million on specific buildings valued at approximately $160 million deemed to be important to the operations of the District. The goal of the purchase is to provide limited cover for the peril of earthquake in a manner that is relatively inexpensive and does not place an excessive burden on the budget. From time to time, usually annually, the District considers adding structures to the earthquake insurance schedule.

CSRMA, a joint powers authority (JPA), was formed in the late 1980’s to use risk pooling and group purchase strategies to serve the insurance and risk management needs of the California sanitation industry. Over the years, we have developed coverage offerings that have worked very well for our 58 member agencies. We are dedicated to our members, and are effectively owned collectively by them. Accordingly, we welcome the participation of eligible agencies in the JPA, which of course, OCSD has always been one. A review of the material supplied reveals that OCSD is quite a bit larger than our average member, and almost double the size of our single largest member, using our standard metrics. This size disparity presents unique issues for participation in CSRMA programs based both on whether cover can be offered at price points that are attractive relative to what the District currently obtains in the commercial market, and whether the risk sharing formulas in CSRMA’s pooling programs would remain equitable to OCSD and the rest of the membership given the size disparity. The impact of these topics will become evident as we work through our cost estimates for participation in each of CSRMA’s three key programs, below. Workers Compensation CSRMA’s workers’ compensation program is structured without a deductible (retention) for the members. This allows members to transfer 100% of their workers’ compensation risk to the pool and obtain uniform, high quality claims administration service that is attuned to the needs of the membership. It is designed to be a “plug and play” system for the members, as much as that is possible in the complex workers’ compensation environment. Notably, OCSD currently carries a million dollar retention on its workers’ compensation program which is obviously a significant difference to our offering. Page 2 Mr. John Preston May 11, 2020 In practice, this means that the District’s premium (deposits into the risk sharing pool) to CSRMA would be several magnitudes higher in dollars than the premium the District currently pays to its excess insurer. While this is “neither good nor bad”, as one expects premium to rise as risk is reduced, the standard way to measure this tradeoff is with the “total cost of risk” concept. Using the District’s most recently available actuarial study and its current excess insurance cost relative to CSRMA’s expected 2020-21 cost reveals a meaningful cost differential in the total cost of risk: Workers Comp Cost Item OCSD 2019-2020 Program Cost Estimate CSRMA Program 2020-21 Cost Estimate Retained Layer Funding * 1,456,560 N/A Pool Deposit N/A 1,826,929 Excess Insurance 217,762 Included Total Cost 1,674,322 1,826,929 * From BRS Actuarial 6/1/18 - Ultimate, Discounted, 80% CL, adjusted for general inflation at 2% Therefore unless the District expects a significant change in the cost of its 2020-21 program, on a pure ultimate cost basis, the District would likely be better off in its existing structure rather than with the CSRMA Program. Beyond cost, CSRMA’s program would require District claims to be handled by CSRMA’s third party claims administration (TPA) firm, and we imagine that OCSD is likely comfortable in its current relationship. For these reasons, we don’t see our workers’ compensation program being a good fit for the District right now. If the District is interested in pursuing a quote for the 2021 starting fiscal year, we would recommend face to face discussions to be sure that the District would be happy for the long run inside CSRMA’s workers’ compensation program, as due to the risk sharing formulas, participation works best on a multi-year basis. Property Program We have reviewed the District’s property insurance specifications and note that the District participates in the same insurance program that CSRMA does, that is to say, the Alliant Property Insurance Program (APIP, f.k.a. PEPIP). We have reached out to the APIP underwriters, most notably those at the Lexington Insurance Company (AIG) about participation. They report that while they have no objection to the District accessing APIP coverage through CSRMA, because it is the “same risk” that they underwrite currently, there would be no discernable difference in cost as the District’s premium would just be added to CSRMA’s premium and then allocated back through CSRMA to the District. This aside, and all things equal, APIP through CSRMA would actually cost a bit more for the District, as the JPA would need to allocate a portion of its overhead charge associated with its program to the District. Page 3 Mr. John Preston May 11, 2020 More notable however than any nominal cost change, is that in reviewing the District’s current coverage in APIP, we have learned that the District has more extensive flood coverage than is currently provided to CSRMA members, and in the current environment, we would not be able to guarantee thatOCSD would beable to keep what looks to be very favorable terms for flood coverage inside CSRMA’s program. For this reason, we do not believe that under the current circumstances, CSRMA’s property program is a better fit for the District rather than accessing APIP directly. Simply put, we would hate to see the District pay more, and jeopardize the flood cover that it has. Public Entity Liability Larger members in CSRMA obtain general liability coverage in our Pooled Liability Program (PLP). Coverage in the PLP is granted by a Memorandum of Coverage (policy) that is largely similar in scope to a standard public entity general liability offering from an insurer. Members share risk with one another between the amounts of their own deductible and where the pool’s reinsurance, attaches. The Program’s reinsurance attaches at $500,000 which coincidentally is the current level of the District’s retention in its own liability program. Limits of $25,500,000 are provided largelybyour reinsurance partner, MunichRe. CSRMA’s program runs on acalendar year basis rather than fiscal, so there are timing issues that would need to be resolved, but a best estimate of a cost comparison at this point in time would be as follows: Excess Liability Cost OCSD 2019 - 500k Ret. - $40MM Limit CSRMA 2020 - Est. $500k Ret. $25M Limit Funding for Retained Layer* 571,589 571,589 Pool Deposits/Overhead N/A 75,000 Excess Ins. Expense** 515,371 710,215 Total: 1,086,960 1,356,804 *From BRS Actuarial Study – Discounted, at 80% Confidence Level **Excess Ins. Expense at 2019 for OCSD, projected 2020 for CSRMA Therefore, again, unless the District is expecting a significant increase in the cost of its excess insurance, there does not appear to be a cost advantage to the District by participating in the CSRMA pool. It is also important to note that that the current District program provides $15MM more in limits than does the CSRMA program, which would need to be resolved to arrive at a true “apples to apples” comparison. Beyond pricingor coveragecomparisons between thepoolandthe District’s current program, there are structural considerations to take note of when wishing to participate in the pool. Most notably, because members of the pool share risk according to a formula, uniform claim handling standards are required. Members in the program must engage assigned personnel of the pool’s claims administration firm, Carl Warren and Company. Further, the Program has a few critical policies and procedures that all members must adhere to. Most notably, as respects legal defense, barring specific circumstances, defense counsel may only be selected from the pool’s Page 4 Mr. John Preston May 11, 2020 approved panel of attorneys. While this and other operational procedures work well for current members, assuring professional, uniform and cost-effective claim handling, an organization the size of OCSD may not desire such uniformity of process. Conclusion We are acutely aware that insurance market has been in an extreme state of flux over the past year, and even more so over the past few months due to the COVID-19 issue. Our expectation is that this will continue be the case for the foreseeable future. Rightly, people are vigorously investigating all coverage options available to them. Unfortunately it does not appear that that CSRMA programs, as currently structured would necessarily be attractive to the District relative to its current program. As strong proponent of CSRMA this is not a “happy” conclusion for me to reach, but from working though the material, it is clear to me that the Programs that CSRMA has built and implemented are quite simply not designed for organizations with the size of the District. CSRMA does however see advantages to a closer working relationship with the District and I would like to offer up the possibility of meeting with you to discuss the broader nature of an OCSD CSRMA relationship at a point in time that is mutually convenient. There may very well come a time where the numbers shift, and the math could work out much differently, such that we would do well to have discussed the many operational issues in inherent participating in a risk sharing JPA beforehand. To this end, I am attaching a copy of our JPA Agreement that all members are signatories on, as well as copies of our Pool Programs, and Property Program Participation Agreements. We are always willing to discuss topics ofmutual interest with those operating within the industry, be they insurance, risk management or “other”. I would hope that you would not hesitate to contact me with any questions you may have about the contents of this letter, or any other matters of concern.

As you know, OCSD has long been a member of this Joint Powers Authority, securing excess workers compensation coverage from it for many years. While PRISM would look very favorably upon OCSD participating in itsprograms beyond excess workers’ compensation, for the reasons outlined below, it does not appear that either the Property or Excess Liability programs of PRISM would make much sense for OCSD in the current environment. Excess Liability PRISM has reviewed OCSD’s application material submitted in order to provide an indication of the cost of coverage in its GL1 Program, the most appropriate program for an entity such as OCSD. Although terms and conditions of coverage are not identical to OCSD’s current program (likely all things equal, besides limits of cover, the GL1 Program would likely be broader) they are similar enough in intended scope, providing general, automobile, professional and public official’s liability coverage on an occurrence basis, to be comparable. A comparison of the total cost of risk for participation in GL1at OCSD’s current retention would be as follows: Excess Liability Cost OCSD 2019 - 500k Ret. - $40MM Limit PRISM - 2020 Est. $500k Ret.$25M Limit Est. Funding for Retained Layer* 571,589 571,589 Program Overhead N/A Incl. Excess Ins.

Expense at 2019 for OCSD, projected 2020 for PRISM 100 Pine Street, 11th Floor | San Francisco, CA 94111Alliant Insurance Services, Inc. |www.alliant.com | CA License No. 0C36861 Page 2 Mr. John Preston May 18th 2020 Note, that in comparison to its expiring program, GL1 would be significantly more expensive providing less total limits of coverage. While on its face, the difference is dramatic, it is important to note that the excess liability insurance market is hardening almost daily, and we are expecting a significant increase in the cost of the District’s expiring 2019 program shown above. Therefore, unless renewal costs of the existing program significantly exceed our current estimates, we don’t believe participation in GL1 is an attractive option for the District at this time. Property Program PRISM reviewed the District’s property insurance specifications and a summary of the current coverages. PRISM lead underwriters at Lexington Insurance Company (AIG) report that they currently insure the District through Alliant’s Property Insurance Program (APIP) and for this reason, would be “competing with themselves” if they offer a quotation. While they would have no objection to the District accessing Lexington through the PRISM Property program rather than through APIP, because it is the “same risk” underwritten currently, there would be no discernable difference in cost to the District. This said, in reviewing the District’s current coverage in APIP,it was noted that the District has significantly higher limits offlood coverage than is currentlyavailablein thePRISM program. From Lexington’s vantage, these have been “grandfathered in” from a time when the property market was viewing flood risk much more favorably than it does today. PRISM would not be able to offer such flood limits. As a side note on this topic,I would point out that although we have not yet received renewal terms for the District from APIP, there may be some difficulty at keeping the current flood limits intact this year. Further, the PRISM Property Program runs on a coverage term of March 31st to March 31st so if the District would prefer to participate in the PRISM Property program a reconciliation to the Districts’ current fiscal year coverage dates would need to occur, along with some discussion regarding required policies and procedures of participation. John, from time to time in previous years, OCSD would meet with representatives from PRISM to discuss their JPA and its coverage offerings. If you would like me to schedule such a meeting in the future, I would be very happy to do so.

This document lays out the framework of OCSD’s activities during the next two years and serves as a source of information for OCSD’s Board of Directors, our ratepayers, and our employees. This budget includes the operational, capital and debt service expenditures necessary to cost-effectively support our mission and execute the Strategic Plan adopted by our Board of Directors in November 2019. This budget is being submitted at a challenging time for our community, the state, and our nation amid the COVID-19 pandemic. There are unknowns and uncertainties regarding the duration, the immediate and long-term impacts, and what the new “normal” will look like. During the budget preparation and presentation, our staff has been aware of, and has considered this extraordinary situation. Fortunately, under the guidance and policies set by the Board of Directors, the proposed budget reflects a financially sound and stable organization capable of weathering this storm. I would like to highlight some of the areas of focus for the coming years: • Operational Readiness – OCSD has always been a forward-looking agency, whether it is for operational reliability, future infrastructure needs, emergency events such as spills and storms, or unknown situations such as pandemics. We have Business Continuity Plans in place, and we conduct regular tabletop exercises for various scenarios to allow us to respond quickly and effectively without compromising our mission or levels of service. As we move forward, our efforts will continue to focus on planning, preparation and integration so that regardless of what future situations we face, OCSD will be ready. • Expanded Recycling Efforts o Groundwater Replenishment System Final Expansion – In partnership with the Orange County Water District (OCWD), our agency recycles enough water to supply the needs of 850,000 people through the Groundwater Replenishment System (GWRS). Earlier this year, construction began on the Final Expansion phase of this internationally recognized project. Changes and additions to infrastructure will allow for the treated water from Plant No. 2 that is currently underutilized, to be processed at the GWRS facility in Fountain Valley. With this final phase, the GWRS will provide a reliable water source for over one million people in central and northern Orange County. o Food Waste Treatment Facility – A project created for cities in our service area to satisfy the requirements of California State Assembly Bill 1826 and Senate Bill 1383 which require that organic wastes be diverted away from landfills. This regulatory shift has created an opportunity in the wastewater sector to provide a cost effective and environmentally friendly service to help manage organics using OCSD’s existing anaerobic digesters, which in turn will produce renewable energy to power our treatment plants. • Headquarters Complex – In our ongoing effort to streamline our operations and planning, we have acquired 7.5 acres across Ellis Avenue from Reclamation Plant No. 1 in Fountain Valley. The buildings on those properties will be demolished to make room for a consolidated headquarters building to house the staff that are currently located in various buildings and trailers spread out on the existing 100-acre wastewater treatment facility. Adding a headquarters complex will free up needed space for future wastewater treatment infrastructure and will centralize our administrative functions. Today, we are 95 percent complete in design and expect to enter construction in 2021 and be move-in ready by the end of 2023. • Capital Improvement Program – OCSD’s Capital Improvement Program (CIP) has evolved over time. It began by focusing on creating the initial infrastructure of the collections and treatment system, shifted to expanding capacity, and now our focus is on aging infrastructure, incorporating climate resiliency, seismic risk, and maximizing resource recovery. During the evolution of this program, one thing has remained; OCSD facilities must operate reliably with sound financial management. While the COVID-19 pandemic has resulted vii FISCAL YEARS 2020-21 AND 2021-22 BUDGET EXECUTIVE SUMMARY — FISCAL YEARS 2020-21 and 2021-2022EXECUTIVE SUMMARY — FISCAL YEARS 2020-21 and 2021-2022 in operational modifications, our CIP has not been significantly impacted. OCSD will continue to construct essential wastewater infrastructure, investing $500 million in wastewater infrastructure in the next year and a half, issuing construction contracts for 37 projects and helping keep the economic engine running in Orange County. • Infrastructure Reliability and Asset Management – OCSD’s infrastructure must operate continuously day and night. Reliability must be built into all that we do and that includes managing the condition of our $11 billion in assets to ensure they are running effectively. Over the past two years, we made a concerted effort to establish an updated and more robust understanding of the condition and performance of all critical and major assets and our ability to meet established levels of service. As we embark on another year of this renewed asset management program, we have updated our Asset Management Plan to develop a tactical approach for addressing asset condition and performance issues. The plan lays out how we will operate and maintain those assets to deliver the required level of service at the lowest lifecycle cost with an acceptable level of risk. OCSD will be investing an additional $4 million in repairs and maintenance this next year. • Safety and Security – Capital projects, maintenance activities, drafting of an implementation plan for a Voluntary Protection Program Certification, and training to address safety in our workplace are all included in this budget, as are enhancements to our physical, electronic, and cyber security infrastructure. • Staffing Cost Containment – While continuing to implement programs to enhance our resiliency, reliability and resource recovery, this budget displays our commitment to efficiency as it includes a small reduction in staffing. OCSD has worked very hard to create an integrated planning environment which begins with the strategic and policy expectations of the Board of Directors and flows down to the work product of each employee. We have worked to ensure communication and transparency among our staff members so that they are aligned and working together in support of the plan. OCSD will continue to provide wastewater collection, treatment, recycling, facilities maintenance, ocean monitoring, and many other services while keeping rates among the lowest in California. This budget fully supports the goals and levels of service included in the Orange County Sanitation District’s Strategic Plan and positions us well to proactively manage in the coming years. James D. HerbergGeneral ManagerOrange County Sanitation District viii EXECUTIVE SUMMARY — FISCAL YEARS 2020-21 and 2021-2022EXECUTIVE SUMMARY — FISCAL YEARS 2020-21 and 2021-2022 1EXECUTIVE SUMMARY — FISCAL YEARS 2020-21 and 2021-2022EXECUTIVE SUMMARY — FISCAL YEARS 2020-21 and 2021-2022 FINANCESUMMARY EXECUTIVE SUMMARY — FISCAL YEARS 2020-21 and 2021-2022 FINANCIAL SUMMARY/OVERVIEW AND BUDGETARY ISSUES Budget Overview Orange County Sanitation District’s (OCSD) proposed FY 2020-21 and 2021-22 operating and capital improvement budgets total $400 million and $662 million, respectively. There is consideration of paying down maturing and callable debt in the amount of $174 million, which is included in the FY 2021-22 budget. The increase in the FY 2020-21 budget over the FY 2019-20 projected spending of $394 million is primarily due to the timing of construction cash outlays, in addition to increases in salaries and benefits and repairs and maintenance. The increase in the FY 2021-22 budget is primarily due to the timing of construction cash outlays as we meet our infrastructure needs. The budget continues to reflect the agency’s ongoing efforts to streamline operations. OCSD’s proposed Capital Improvement Program (CIP) budgets for FY 2020-21 and FY 2021-22 are $148 million and $241 million, respectively, net of savings and deferrals. This CIP budget supports collection system, joint works treatment and disposal system improvement projects. Financing OCSD uses long-term Certificates of Participation (COP) for financing capital improvements that cannot be completely funded from current revenue. Before any new debt is issued, the impact of debt service payments on total annual fixed costs is analyzed. Total COP indebtedness is currently at $940 million. No new money debt financings are currently forecasted to assist in the funding of the $2.7 billion in capital improvements required over the next 10 years. Staffing Reflecting the organization’s commitment to providing service at the lowest costs, the budget reflects a decrease of one authorized full time equivalent (FTE) position for FY 2020-21 and FY 2021-22 as staffing is proposed at 639 FTE positions in both years. Personnel costs will increase primarily due to approved increases in salaries and wages for all employee bargaining units based on the existing Memorandums of Understanding. OCSD will continue to effectively manage these expenses with approximately 25.5 percent of the budget allocated to employee costs, much less than most other government agencies. Cost of Treatment The agency’s two treatment plants, located in Fountain Valley and Huntington Beach, process about 188 million gallons of wastewater each day generated by approximately 2.6 million people residing within central and northwest Orange County and the businesses that operate within this service area. The proposed budget to operate, maintain and manage our sewage collection, treatment, and disposal system, including self-insurance requirements, for the next two years is $176 million per year. The cost per million gallons of wastewater treated (an industry-wide performance measurement) is expected to increase $96, or 4.0 percent, in FY 2020-21 to $2,534. The increase in the cost per million gallons is due to the increase in the operating budget. Sewer Service Fees The FY 2020-21 and FY 2021-22 single family residential rates are scheduled to increase by approximately one percent each year to $343 and $347, respectively. OCSD’s rates are well below the statewide average sewer rate of $529 as reported in a 2016-2017 survey of 963 agencies in California. Groundwater Replenishment System (GWRS) The OCSD Strategic Plan includes water reclamation. With the Orange County Water District (OCWD), OCSD completed the GWRS, the nation’s largest water reclamation project, in January 2008. The original GWRS facility reclaimed 70 million gallons of water a day (MDG), eliminating the need to build a second outfall which could cost more than $200 million. OCSD and OCWD equally shared the expenses of this project and approximately $44 million in Federal and State grants that were received to offset part of the total costs. Initial expansion of GWRS increased the production of reclaimed water to 100 million gallons a day. This expansion, which was funded entirely by the OCWD, was completed in early 2015. OCSD is directing all reclaimable flows from Plant No. 1 to OCWD in support of providing maximum amounts of specification water for reclamation. 2 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY — FISCAL YEARS 2020-21 and 2021-2022 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY — FISCAL YEARS 2020-21 and 2021-2022 FISCAL YEARS 2020-21 AND 2021-22 BUDGET 3EXECUTIVE SUMMARY — FISCAL YEARS 2020-21 and 2021-2022 The GWRS Final Expansion will be funded solely by the OCWD. OCSD currently has two active projects supporting the GWRS Final Expansion. The costs of these projects will be reimbursed by the OCWD. The Final Expansion of the GWRS is expected to be online in 2023, bringing the total GWRS capacity to 130 MGD of drinking water. Capital Improvement Program (CIP) The proposed CIP budget for FY 2020-21, net of savings and deferrals, is $147.6 million. Over the next 10 years, OCSD’s Capital Improvement Program will: • Rehabilitate the headworks, primary treatment, solids handling facilities, and utility systems at Plant No. 1. • Replace a third of the primary treatment facilities and rehabilitate the outfall pumping system at Plant No. 2. • Construct a new Headquarters Complex. • Modify existing headworks at Plant No. 2 and construct a new plant water pump station to enable the final expansion of the Groundwater Replenishment System (GWRS). • Replace or rehabilitate OCSD’s aging pump stations and trunk sewers in the collections system. Projects Driving the CIP Over the next 24 months, the largest capital cash outlays are: • Newhope-Placentia Trunk Replacement - $28.7 million ($112 million total budget). • Headworks Rehabilitation & Expansion at Plant No. 1 - $59.2 million ($406 million total budget). • Westminster Blvd Force Main Replacement - $23.1 million ($44 million total budget). • Primary Treatment Rehabilitation at Plant No. 2 - $34.3 million ($237 million total budget). • Ocean Outfall System Rehabilitation - $49.5 million ($166 million total budget). • Headquarters Complex at Plant No. 1 - $48.5 million ($167.5 million total budget). EXECUTIVE SUMMARY — FISCAL YEARS 2020-21 and 2021-2022 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY — FISCAL YEARS 2020-21 and 2021-20224 FINANCIAL SUMMARY/OVERVIEW AND BUDGETARY ISSUES Operating Budget Increase – $12.6M The operations budget for the collection, treatment, and disposal of wastewater is proposed at $176.3 million, a $12.6 million (7.7 percent) increase above FY 2019-20 projected expenditures. In FY 2021-22, it is projected to increase by $0.2 million (0.1 percent). Although some expenses will increase or decrease slightly, the overall increase to the operating budget in FY 2020-21 over the FY 2019-20 projected is primarily attributable to five specific areas: Salaries and Benefits – $6.3M Increase Personnel costs are being proposed at $6.3 million, or 6.5 percent increase over the prior year projection mainly due to cost of living adjustments included in the current Memorandums of Understanding for all employee bargaining units and increased insurance premiums and retirement contributions. There is a proposed decrease of one full time equivalent (FTE) staff position bringing the proposed total FTE count in FY 2020-21 and FY 2021-22 to 639.0 FTEs. Other Materials, Supplies, and Services – $1.5M Increase The increase is primarily due to the General Manager’s contingency and the contingency for prior year reappropriations, an increase in the property and general liability insurance premiums, and additional research and monitoring costs. Professional Services – $1.3M Increase The increase in professional services in FY 2020-21 is for legal fees and technical consulting fees on projects and studies. Repairs and Maintenance – $4.1M Increase This expense category includes parts and services for repairing aging treatment plant and collection facilities and reflects base budgets for equipment maintenance as well as out-sourced annual service contracts and maintenance agreements. Repairs and maintenance costs are proposed to increase $4.1 million or 16.9 percent over the prior year projection. During FY 2020-21 major projects that contribute to the increase are the Bushard Diversion Structure Repair planned for $1.1 million, major rehabilitation of primary basins, secondary clarifiers and overhaul of new centrifuges at both plants planned for $6.5 million. Operating Materials and Supplies – $1.5M Increase OCSD uses chemical coagulants improve solids removal efficiencies in the primary clarifiers, add to digested sludge prior to dewatering to aid in coagulation, improving the sludge and water separation process, and add to the waste activated sludge dissolved air flotation thickeners (DAFTs) to improve solids coagulation. Odor control chemicals are used in both the treatment plants and the collection system. Both costs and usage are expected to increase in FY 2020-21. Operating Expenses (in millions) $163.7M $176.3M $176.5M FY 2019-20 Projected +0.1%+7.7% Operating expenses increase $12.6 million (7.7%) in FY 2020-21 and increase $0.2 million 0.1% in FY 2021-22.

The major revenue sources are: General Service Fees – $320.4M User fees are ongoing fees for service paid by customers connected to the sewer system. A property owner, or user, does not pay user fees until connected to the sewer system and receiving services. Once connected, users are responsible for their share of the system’s costs, both fixed and variable, in proportion to their demand on the system. These fees are for both Single Family Residences (SFR) and Multiple Family Residences (MFR). Property Taxes – $99.9M The County of Orange is permitted by State law (Proposition 13) to levy taxes at one percent of full market value (at time of purchase) and can increase the assessed value no more than two percent per year. OCSD receives a share of the basic levy proportionate to what was received in the 1976 to 1978 period, less $3.5 million, the amount that represents the State’s permanent annual diversion from special districts to school districts that began in 1992-93. OCSD’s share of this revenue is first dedicated for the payment of debt service. Permit User Fees – $13.0M Permit user fees are paid by large industrial and commercial properties owners connected to the sewer system. These fees are for the owner’s share of the system’s costs, both fixed and variable, in proportion to the user’s demand on the system. Since the inception of the Permit User Fee Program in 1970, users of OCSD’s system that discharge high volumes or high strength wastewater have been required to obtain a discharge permit and pay extra fees for the costs of service. Capital Facilities Capacity Charges (CFCC) – $20.1M The Capital Facilities Capacity Charge is a one-time charge imposed at the time a building or structure is newly connected to OCSD’s system, directly or indirectly, or an existing structure or category of use is expanded or increased. This charge pays for OCSD facilities that exist at the time the charge is imposed, or to pay for new facilities to be constructed in the future that will benefit the property being charged. Interest Earnings – $13.2M Interest earnings are generated from the investment of accumulated reserves consisting of a cash flow/contingency, a capital improvement, a renewal/replacement, and a self-insurance reserve. Intradistrict Transfers – $3.5M In accordance with Amendment No. 2 to the Agreement for Purchase and Sale of Capacity Rights in Treatment, Disposal and Sewer Facilities between Irvine Ranch Water District (IRWD) and OCSD dated November 15, 1995, ownership is adjusted annually to reflect the current equity percentage ownership based on sewage flows. Debt Proceeds – $0M Certificates of Participation (COPs) are OCSD’s primary mechanism for financing capital projects. COPs are repayment obligations based on a lease or installment sale agreement. COPs are not viewed as “debt” by the State of California, but rather a share in an installment arrangement where OCSD serves as the purchaser. No new money debt issuances are being proposed over the next two fiscal years as the $2.7 billion in future replacement, rehabilitation, and refurbishment projects anticipated over the next ten years will be adequately funded through current sewer service fee charges and existing reserves. Other Revenue – $18.2M Other revenue includes self-insurance assessments for workers’ compensation and general liability coverage as well as miscellaneous revenue such as rents and leases.

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY — FISCAL YEARS 2020-21 and 2021-2022 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY — FISCAL YEARS 2020-21 and 2021-2022 9 FISCAL YEARS 2020-21 AND 2021-22 BUDGET Where The Money Goes OCSD budgets its funds in four distinct areas: Capital Improvement Program (CIP) - $147.6M To provide an appropriate level of service to OCSD’s rate payers, large capital improvements are required. The CIP provides for the management and implementation of these improvements. The CIP budget includes specific projects as well as an allocation for anticipated replacement, rehabilitation, or refurbishment (RRR) projects where detailed job plans have not yet been prepared. The budgets for specific CIP projects for FY 2020-21 and FY 2021-22 total $164.8 million and $261.9 million, respectively. However, the net CIP cash outlays, which includes future rehabilitation and replacement less savings and deferrals, are budgeted at $147.6 million and $240.8 million for each year, respectively. Operating Expenses - $176.3M The proposed budget allocates resources to operate, maintain and manage our sewage collection, treatment, and disposal system, and for any associated administrative or technical requirements. Debt Service - $72.8M This is the cost of repaying debt. Long-term debt financing allows OCSD to complete large multi- year capital projects by providing funds not always immediately available. Intradistrict Transfers - $3.5M In accordance with Amendment No. 2 to the Agreement for Purchase and Sale of Capacity Rights in Treatment, Disposal and Sewer Facilities between IRWD and OCSD dated November 15, 1995, ownership is adjusted annually to reflect the current equity percentage ownership based on sewage flows. EXECUTIVE SUMMARY — FISCAL YEARS 2020-21 and 2021-2022 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY — FISCAL YEARS 2020-21 and 2021-202210 COLLECTION, TREATMENT AND RECYCLING PROCESS OVERVIEW OCSD’s system includes approximately 388 miles of sewers that convey wastewater generated within OCSD’s service area to its two treatment facilities, Reclamation Plant No. 1 located in the City of Fountain Valley, and Treatment Plant No. 2 located in the City of Huntington Beach. Influent wastewater undergoes Preliminary Treatment upon entry to the treatment plants where it is filtered through bar screens, and grit and debris are removed. It then flows to Primary Treatment, which consists of large settling basins where solids are settled out, enhanced by the addition of chemicals, and sent to Solids Processing. Wastewater then flows to Secondary Treatment, which is a biological process using either the trickling filter or activated sludge process. Solids removed in Secondary Treatment are also sent to digestion. Methane gas generated during the natural decomposition of the solids in the digesters fuels the Central Power Generation System producing enough electricity to meet two-thirds of the power needed to run both treatment plants. Solids are then dewatered to a 20 percent solids consistency, called biosolids, and recycled via direct land application or composting. Approximately 130 million gallons per day of secondary effluent from Reclamation Plant No. 1 is sent to the Orange County Water District (OCWD) for recycling in its two treatment processes. The first is OCWD’s Groundwater Replenishment System (GWRS). The GWRS is the largest water purification project of its kind in the world and its construction was funded jointly by OCWD and OCSD. At 100 million gallons per day, the GWRS generates enough pure water to meet the needs of 850,000 people. The second is OCWD’s Green Acres Project (GAP) which is a water recycling effort that provides reclaimed water for landscape irrigation at parks, schools and golf courses as well as for industrial uses, such as carpet dying. The total annual demand for GAP water is about four million gallons per day.

This integrated planning system includes Strategic Planning, Asset Management, Budgeting (Capital and Operating), a General Manager’s work plan, and focused engineering study efforts. While these plans are important, equally important is an organizational structure and relationships between employees that work together toward these common goals. Strategic Planning is the first step. OCSD has developed a strategic planning model that creates a long-term level-of-service agreement between its Board of Directors and staff. The Board of Directors use this document to lay out a vision of what the agency will deliver over the next 10 to 20 years. This is an alignment document to define long-term levels of service. The Strategic Plan also serves as a continuity bridge as members of the 25-member Board of Directors come onto and leave the governing body. It is initially important as an education tool for what and why OCSD does what it does, but also allows for new Board members to adjust the vision as it is revised every two years. The Strategic Plan is timed to be adopted by the Board of Directors in the November prior to the bi-annual budget development. Strategic Plan In November 2019, the Board of Directors adopted a new comprehensive strategic plan to steer OCSD’s efforts. The Strategic Plan developed by the Board of Directors and staff defines the strategic initiatives to be pursued by OCSD and provides a basis for long-term financial, capital, and operational planning. In addition, it provides for long-term continuity of vision as Board and staff members change over the many years it takes to deliver public works infrastructure. Driven by our Mission, Vision and Core Values, this Strategic Plan continues OCSD’s aggressive efforts to meet the sanitation, health, and safety needs of the more than 2.6 million people we serve while protecting the environment where we live. The Strategic Plan is broken down into four broad categories with fourteen topic areas that define our responsibilities and the services we provide. These areas are: • Business Principleso Budget Control and Fiscal Disciplineo Asset Management o Cybersecurityo Property Management • Environmental Stewardshipo Energy Independenceo Climate and Catastrophic Event Resiliencyo Food Waste Treatmento Water Reuseo Environmental Water Quality, Stormwater Management and Urban Runoff • Wastewater Managemento Chemical Sustainabilityo Biosolids Managemento Constituents of Emerging Concern • Workplace Environmento Resilient Staffingo Safety and Physical Security The Strategic Plan is not a departure from the current direction, but rather the well-defined iterative update to the direction of OCSD. With the adoption of the Strategic Plan, staff will be updating the Asset Management Plan, Capital Improvement Program, and Financial Plan that are the basis of a two-year budget that will be adopted by the Board of Directors. The Budget goals and the General Manager’s work plan are the accountability steps that measure achievable progress toward the strategic initiatives listed in the Strategic Plan. EXECUTIVE SUMMARY — FISCAL YEARS 2020-21 and 2021-2022 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY — FISCAL YEARS 2020-21 and 2021-2022 13 FISCAL YEARS 2020-21 AND 2021-22 BUDGET EXECUTIVE SUMMARY — FISCAL YEARS 2020-21 and 2021-2022 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY — FISCAL YEARS 2020-21 and 2021-202214 INFRASTRUCTURE ASSET MANAGEMENT Asset Management OCSD is committed to providing services for its rate payers to reliably meet our regulatory mandates and levels of service approved by the Board of Directors and will provide these services using sustainable engineering principles that result in the lowest responsible lifecycle cost with an acceptable level of risk. OCSD installs, operates, maintains, refurbishes and disposes of assets with lifecycles measured from years to decades, so an approach which balances long, medium and short-term needs is necessary. OCSD’s Asset Management Program has evolved into a comprehensive decision-making framework that encompasses engineering planning, design and construction of quality facilities, optimized operation, proper maintenance, and planned rehabilitation, replacement and refurbishment of assets that will meet OCSD’s changing needs. This coordinated decision-making process will allow OCSD to consistently meet mandated levels of service to the rate payers at the lowest lifecycle cost. OCSD’s Asset Management Plan focuses on the long-term planning of maintenance and capital improvement projects to ensure the proper rate structure is in place to support sustainable operations. These are important starting points and have yielded tangible benefits in reduced risk levels and an improved capital planning approach. The implementation of the Maximo Computer Maintenance Management System (CMMS) is an example of an effort to improve OCSD’s Asset Register. CMMS Technicians and the Asset Engineers continue to work to update the database information including installation date, asset cost, condition and criticality in the new system. OCSD has been striving to accurately identify medium to long-term capital cash flow requirements. Specifically, the Engineering Department Planning Division has developed a 20-year CIP by creating specific project plans for the rehabilitation, replacement, improvements and expansion for each treatment plant or collections area. This medium to long-term planning is important for several reasons. By moving away from narrowly focused projects to solve individual problems, to more comprehensive projects refurbishing entire processes, OCSD benefits by having less operational disruption and more efficient project delivery, better cash flow estimation, and better operations and maintenance decision-making framework. This is a huge undertaking based on the number of asset and facilities, but over time the undefined future rehabilitation capital estimates within the 20-year window are expected to be drastically reduced and replaced by more specific estimated capital needs. Complementing the medium to long-term planning are the short-term efforts to coordinate maintenance actions that can reduce risks, actively defer the larger refurbishment projects, and reduce asset consumption rates to minimize the need for replacement of structures and conveyance systems when projects are executed. The Planning Division asset engineers conduct condition assessment, and continuously work with operations and maintenance staff to keep track of the condition of all critical assets, to identify opportunities for operational adjustments or maintenance activities that cost effectively extend the life of key assets which may allow for deferral of the larger overall project. This may be a targeted equipment replacement or pipeline repair that is more urgent than the need of the overall facility. These engineers may also identify opportunities to reduce asset consumption through coating systems, atmosphere improvements or small structure repairs before major damage is done. These actions can drastically reduce the cost of future projects by preventing the need to demolish and replace entire structures. OCSD is committed to continuous improvement of the process by which it manages the assets and facilities that are required to reliably deliver its level of service commitments. The additional resources and individual accountability for specific areas has improved, and will continue to improve our capital planning, project packaging, project execution and delivery, plant operability and maintenance planning. The average age and value of the assets OCSD owns is increasing steadily over time, the latent asset replacement obligation is rising, and as a consequence, OCSD needs to plan for decreased capital projects for expansion and increased renewal expenditures in the future relative to past expenditure levels. Additional focus will need to be given to ensure that appropriate operation and maintenance strategies are being applied that consider the different ages of assets being maintained.

This is accomplished through adaptive operation, coordination of maintenance and condition assessment, and planned capital investment. Staff will balance maintenance, refurbishment, and replacement strategies to maximize useful life, system availability and efficiency. Below is a summary of the FY 2019-20 infrastructure maintenance activities and FY 2020-21 planned activities. Collection System: OCSD’s collection system consists of 388 miles of sewers, 15 pump stations, and three metering stations. The maintenance of all regional sewers is actively managed but only 230 miles of regional sewers are on a cleaning schedule. The largest sewers and force mains are design to be self-cleaning using higher flows and natural scouring action. Typical gravity sewer maintenance activities consist of: closed circuit television (CCTV) inspection, physical inspection, and cleaning operations. The cleaning frequencies are based on data from pipe inspections, CCTV work, process conditions, historical records, and industry best practices. Pump station and metering station maintenance activities include operating the stations, maintaining electrical, mechanical and civil components, and cleaning activities. The collection system odors and corrosive gases are actively managed for nuisance odor mitigation and asset preservation. Maintenance activities are based on established levels of service to ensure compliance with our permit required Sewer System Management Plan, which is designed to reduce spills, and increase reliability and safety. The planned activities help extend the useful life of the assets and minimize nuisance odors. During FY 2019-20 the following maintenance activities are projected to be completed: • Cleaned 30 miles of regional sewer lines on a cleaning schedule. • CCTV video inspection of 350 regional system manholes. • CCTV video inspection of 50 miles of regional sewer pipeline. • Completed 88 percent of scheduled pump station preventative maintenance work. • Cleaned 90 percent of hot spot and scheduled inverted siphon work. • Managed odor control chemical expenses to 75 percent of budget. • Continued an electrical safety initiative to reduce potential arc flash by validating protective relay settings, replacing obsolete circuit breakers, and installing arc flash rating labels. • In addition, OCSD has improved its emergency preparedness by procuring and preplacing bypass piping and fittings for three pump stations. This will allow for more swift response at these locations in the event of a catastrophic failure or other emergency. Total costs for the collections system maintenance is greater than $9 million. The following activities and goals are planned for FY 2020-21: • Clean 49 miles of regional sewer lines on a cleaning schedule. • CCTV video inspection of 750 regional system manholes. • CCTV video inspection of 73 miles of regional sewer pipeline. • Complete at least 85% of scheduled preventative maintenance work. • Manage odor control chemical expenditures to between 95-102 percent of budget. • Continue to implement emergency preparedness bypass pumping plan for six pump stations. The total cost for these proposed collections system activities is greater than $11.5 million. Collection System Capital Improvement Projects: OCSD’s collections projects go through a planning and design process to ensure all elements of the project are thoroughly assessed. These projects typically renew or replace aging pipelines and pump stations, address odor issues, upgrade facilities to meet current codes, and standards, and in some instances, increase flow capacity due to growth in localized portion of our service area. EXECUTIVE SUMMARY — FISCAL YEARS 2020-21 and 2021-2022 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY — FISCAL YEARS 2020-21 and 2021-202218 Currently in construction is the Newhope-Placentia Trunk Replacement (Project No. 2-72) taking place in the cities of Fullerton and Anaheim. Seven miles of sewer along State College Boulevard, from Yorba Linda Boulevard to Orangewood Avenue, will be upsized to allow abandonment of the Yorba Linda Pump Station which has reached the end of its useful life. The pump station diverts reclaimable wastewater to the Santa Ana River Interceptor instead of the Newhope-Placentia line due to inefficient capacity, preventing flows to be reclaimed at the Orange County Water District’s Groundwater Replenishment System (GWRS). The completion of the project will allow OCSD to recycle an additional 8 million gallons of wastewater by routing flows to Plant No. 1 to be reclaimed for GWRS. The project will also include modifications to existing diversion structures and add flexibility to divert other reclaimable flow. This project also provides adequate capacity for future development, minimizing the risk of sewer spills in the future. Construction of the first phase of the project was completed in fall 2017. The second phase of the project commenced construction in summer 2018 and scheduled for completion in Summer 2021. The project has a budget of $112 million. The Rehabilitation of the Western Regional Sewers (Project No. 3-64) covers approximately 15 miles of sewers in the northwestern service area in the cities of Anaheim, Buena Park, Cypress, La Palma, Los Alamitos, Seal Beach and unincorporated areas of the County of Orange referred to as Rossmoor. This large project is required to rehabilitate or replace portions of the sewers and manholes that were installed in the late 1950s and early 1960s. The sewers have multiple deficiencies which have allowed the intrusion of ground water. In some cases, hard calcium deposits have developed, making the pipe difficult to clean, and may, over time, impede the wastewater flow. Portions of the pipeline and over 150 manholes will be rehabilitated or replaced. The project will be completed under three construction contracts. This project is currently in the design phase with the first phase of construction anticipated for 2020. The project budget is $70 million. This is a decrease of from the previous budget of $202 million as a result of changes in the project elements. The Westminster Blvd. Force Mains Replacement (Project No. 3-62) will replace two existing force mains that run three miles along Westminster Blvd. from Seal Beach Boulevard in the City of Seal Beach to Rancho Road in the City of Westminster. The project commenced construction in spring 2020. The budget for this project is $44 million. The Seal Beach Pump Station is the starting point of the Westminster Blvd. Force Mains. The Seal Beach Pump Station Replacement (Project No. 3-67) will replace the existing pump station on the existing site and demolish the old pump station when the new one is complete. Not only are the electrical and safety codes significantly different from when the station was first construction in the early 1970s, but many of the electrical, mechanical, and control system components are becoming obsolete, and long-term maintenance is no longer an option. The project will also include odor control improvements at the pump station to minimize both upstream and downstream odors and corrosion. The pump station will connect to the newly constructed Westminster Blvd. Force Mains. The project is currently in the preliminary design phase with construction anticipated to begin in 2023. The budget for this project is $79 million. In Newport Beach, the Bay Bridge Pump Station Replacement (Project No. 5-67) will replace the existing pump station to meet current building, electrical, and safety codes, and to meet projected capacity needs. The existing force mains will also be replaced and upsized, and will extend from the new pump station location, across the Back-Bay channel, to connect with the existing pipes near the Dover Avenue and Pacific Coast Highway intersection. The project is currently in the preliminary design phase with construction of both the force mains and pump station anticipated to begin in 2023. The budget for this project is $74 million. Reclamation Plant No. 1 and Treatment Plant No. 2 Maintenance: The maintenance organization continues to implement industry best practices for safety, effectiveness and reliability. During FY 2019-20, several major initiatives were completed to improve resilience, reliability and lower lifecycle costs. The first initiative was the formation of a heavy equipment maintenance team to conduct in-house maintenance of Central Generation and gas compression assets. The second initiative was creation of an on-call electrical preventive maintenance services contract allowing electrical staff to focus on predictive maintenance work. The third initiative was formation of a preventive/predictive maintenance optimization team to ensure all new projects are fully ready to be maintained when placed in service. It is critical to provide maintenance immediately when projects with complex equipment worth tens of millions of dollars are commissioned for service, INFRASTRUCTURE ASSET MANAGEMENT EXECUTIVE SUMMARY — FISCAL YEARS 2020-21 and 2021-2022 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY — FISCAL YEARS 2020-21 and 2021-2022 19 as well as to maintain the equipment data in our computer-based maintenance management system over their lifetime. Throughout both plants, more than 12,200 preventative maintenance activities were performed. In addition, the following significant maintenance and repair activities are projected to be completed in FY 2019-20: • Installed a new close-coupled pump motor for the Steve Anderson Lift Station (SALS). • Rehabilitated two of three Circular Primary Clarifiers at Plant No. 1. • Met NFPA 110 requirements for load testing emergency standby and mobile generators. • Continued an electrical safety initiative to reduce potential arc flash by validating protective relay settings, replacing obsolete circuit breakers, and installing arc flash rating labels at both Plants. • Began condition assessment of low and medium voltage cables to ensure reliability of the electrical distribution feed at both Plants. • Completed major service on one aeration blower at the Plant No. 1 Activated Sludge secondary treatment process. • Completed overhaul of 24 primary sedimentation basin collector mechanisms at Plant No 1. • Completed overhaul of one gas compressor at Plant No. 1. • Cleaned three digesters and replaced their mixing valves at Plant No. 2. • Began the rehabilitation of the steam turbine and condenser in the Central Generation Facility at Plant No. 2. • Refurbished an auxiliary boiler at Plant No. 2. • Completed major upgrades to Effluent Pump Station Annex Motor driver electronics at Plant No. 2. • Refurbished a main sewage pump and motor at Plant No. 2 Headworks. Total costs for the treatment plant maintenance is greater than $23 million. Looking forward to FY 2020-21, there are more than 12,400 preventative/predictive maintenance activities scheduled to be completed at Plant Nos.1 and 2. This includes typical time or cycle based maintenance tasks such as adjustments and mechanical alignments, cleaning and tightening of electrical equipment, FISCAL YEARS 2020-21 AND 2021-22 BUDGET EXECUTIVE SUMMARY — FISCAL YEARS 2020-21 and 2021-2022 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY — FISCAL YEARS 2020-21 and 2021-202220 INFRASTRUCTURE ASSET MANAGEMENT EXECUTIVE SUMMARY — FISCAL YEARS 2020-21 and 2021-2022 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY — FISCAL YEARS 2020-21 and 2021-2022 21 FISCAL YEARS 2020-21 AND 2021-22 BUDGET calibration of sensors and meters, changing of lubricants and filters, exercising equipment, rebuilds and regulatory testing. In addition, staff will be utilizing predictive technologies such as vibration analysis to measure imbalance in rotating equipment, thermography to measure excessive heat, oil analysis to predict failure of lubricants, and ultrasonic leak detection to prevent deterioration and short-circuiting in electrical equipment. These predictive technologies will not only improve how maintenance is done but will also provide decision making information to support OCSD’s CIP. In addition to normal maintenance activities, OCSD is planning the following major activities for FY 2020-21: • Major maintenance service of 16 remaining primary sedimentation basins for increased reliability at Plant No. 1. • Major overhaul of one gas compressor at each Plant. • Overhaul of three thickening and dewatering Centrifuges at Plant No. 1. • Clean four digesters at Plant No. 1 and three at Plant No. 2. • Overhaul three Main Service Pump motors at the Plant No. 2 Headworks. • Complete an assessment and repair of failed low voltage cables at the Plant No. 2 Headworks. • Overhaul five secondary clarifiers at Plant No. 2. • Replace secondary clarifier inlet gates at Plant No. 2. • Overhaul three dewatering Centrifuges at Plant No. 2. • Replacement of the truck loading augers, valves and sliding frame systems at Plant No. 2. The total cost for these proposed plant maintenance activities is greater than $24 million. Reclamation Plant No. 1 Capital Improvement Projects: These projects are intended to rehabilitate or reconstruct major components of our treatment process to ensure compliance with regulatory permits, enhance water recycling and safety. One of the largest projects is the Headwork Rehabilitation at Plant No. 1 (Project No. P1-105). The facility is over 30 years old, and a comprehensive refurbishment is required in order to extend the life of the facility. The project will rehabilitate systems including the metering and diversion structure, the bar screen building, the bin loading building, the main sewage pump station, the grit basins, the primary influent channels, the headworks odor control scrubbers, and electrical power distribution and control systems. This project will also replace the emergency pumping capacity that has been provided by the original headworks pumping system dating back to the 1950s. Construction is anticipated to begin in 2021. The total budgeted cost for this project is $406 million. To ensure Plant No. 1 has allocated space for future treatment processes, the Headworks Complex (Project No. P1-128) will build new support facilities across from Plant No. 1 on the north side of Ellis Avenue. Currently, administrative and engineering functions are located primarily at Plant No. 1, and the buildings that house the staff are aging and need replacement. The new Headquarters will be a three-story building for administrative, engineering, resource protection and environmental compliance staff. The project includes the demolition of the Risk Management trailer and five buildings at the site of the new Headquarters. Construction is anticipated to begin in 2021. The total budgeted cost for this project is $167.5 million. Treatment Plant No. 2 Capital Improvement Projects: These projects are intended to rehabilitate or reconstruct major components of our treatment process to ensure compliance with regulatory permits, enhance water recycling and safety. The Primary Treatment Rehabilitation Project (Project No. P2-98) will replace or rehabilitate the 14 primary clarifiers at Plant No. 2 with associated influent pipes, construct new primary effluent pipes, and rehabilitate and upgrade the odor control systems. These facilities date back to the late 1950s and need seismic and condition-based upgrades. The project will replace the four oldest primary clarifiers. The project has a second construction contract to provide interim repairs to the other ten clarifiers. The project as a whole will improve the resiliency of our infrastructure and thus improve our ability to provide service. This is anticipated to be a very long duration project because the need to maintain treatment operations during the project. Construction to replace the four primary clarifiers is anticipated to begin in 2021. The total project budget is $237 million. The Headworks Modifications at Plant No. 2 (Project No. P2-122) will support the GWRS Final Expansion by separating non-reclaimable flows from those that EXECUTIVE SUMMARY — FISCAL YEARS 2020-21 and 2021-2022 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY — FISCAL YEARS 2020-21 and 2021-202222 INFRASTRUCTURE ASSET MANAGEMENT can be transferred to OCWD for reclamation. The project will include the installation of new gates, replacement of three existing influent pumps at the existing Headworks, and modification of waste side stream pumping and piping. Costs associated with this project will be reimbursed by OCWD. As we make improvements throughout the plant, it is imperative we pay attention to our ocean outfall system. Many components of the system such as the pipeline assets have already been addressed, so now we turn our attention to the pumping systems with the Ocean Outfall System Rehabilitation (Project No. J-117). Work to the Ocean Outfall Booster Station includes rehabilitation of the mechanical, electrical, and civil systems which will extend the life of the facility and increase the efficiency of the system. In addition, a new Low Flow Pump Station will be added due to our increased water recycling rates, which will reduce our outfall flows below the minimum capacity of the existing effluent pumps. This project will also relocate the existing Plant Water Pump Station to prevent water that is not reclaimable by the GWRS from flowing into the reclaimable portion of the treatment plant. The project will also replace existing electrical switchgear at the Central Generation Building. Rehabilitation of the 84-inch and 120-inch interplant effluent lines between Plant No. 1 and Plant No. 2 completed in 2018. The budget for this project is $166 million. Costs associated with the Plant Water Pump Station will be reimbursed by the OCWD. Planning Studies: As part of the long-term CIP planning efforts, several studies are currently underway evaluating various areas of the plants and the collection system to determine their condition, and identify deficiencies or improvements needed. These studies include the Ocean Outfall Condition Assessment and Scoping Study, ETAP Model (electrical simulation software tool) Updates for Plant Nos. 1 and 2, Digester 6 Pipe Stress Analysis at Plant No. 1, Circular Primary Clarifier Replacement Phasing Study at Plant No. 1, The Facilities Master Plan Program Environmental Impact Report, and the Laboratory Rehabilitation Feasibility Study. The results of these studies will help support, define and refine future CIP projects to improve our facilities and systems.

CIP projects take several years to complete the planning, design, and construction cycle. The proposed budget for each project covers the life of the project. This budget is reevaluated each year for the purpose of managing annual cash flows. Thus, many of the projects in the CIP Budget for FY 2020-21 and 2021-22 are continuing projects that were approved in prior years. In December 2017, the 20 17 Facilities Master Plan was adopted by the Board of Directors. The Master Plan identified a phased 20-year program of capital improvement projects that will allow the District to maintain reliability and accommodate future growth, as well as meet future regulatory requirements, level of service goals, and strategic initiatives. With this phased 20-year program as a starting point, the Asset Management Program within the Planning Division continues assessing the condition of the District’s existing assets and systems to ensure these assets and systems can provide the necessary level of service. The Planning Division continues reviewing and updating the ongoing and future CIP to appropriately manage the risks associated with asset or system failure. Projects can be delayed, consolidated or rescoped to help ensure that the CIP is delivered in the most efficient way possible. The Asset Management Program will continue these efforts and will continue to define the future CIP project requirements not currently included on the CIP list but are anticipated within the long- term financial plan to ensure effective and efficient operations. This year, eight new projects are proposed for addition to the 2020-21 budget. These are: • Project No. 7-68: MacArthur Pump Station Force Main Improvements • Project No. J-135: Central Generation Engine Overhauls at Plant No. 1 and 2 • Project No. 11-33: Edinger Pump Station Replacement • Project No. J-120: Process Control Systems Upgrades • Project No. P1-137: Support Buildings Seismic Improvements at Plant No. 1 • Project No. P2-135: Sodium Bisulfite Station Rehabilitation at Plant No. 2 • Project No. P2-137: Digesters Rehabilitation at Plant No. 2 • Project No. P1-126: Primary Sedimentation Basins No. 3-5 Replacement at Plant No. 1 District staff has also validated all active and future CIP projects to ensure the project scopes of work, schedule and cost estimates are up to date. Through the budget validation process, each project’s schedule, staff resources, total project cost, cash flow and risks are assessed to confirm the budgetary requirements. The validated CIP includes 70 active and future capital projects, five programs, such as the Planning Studies Program (M-Studies) and Small Construction Program (M-FE), and budget for capital equipment purchases with a total CIP budget authority of $4.18 billion. The total CIP budget authority has increased by $153 million as compared to FY 2019-20 approved budget of $4.03 billion. The changes are summarized below: FY2019-20 Approved Total CIP Budget Authority $4.03 B Project Net Changes: Midyear Approvals $1.3 M New $392.0 M Budget Increases $265.0 M Budget Decreases ($247.0 M) Cancellation/Closures ($257.0 M) Capital Equipment Purch.

Projects in the Planning phase are planning or research studies that are primarily managed under the Planning Studies Program, or M-Studies. 44 percent of the FY 2020-21 net CIP outlay will be for projects that are in the Design phase. The three largest projects in the Design phase are Headquarters Complex Plant No. 1 (Project No. P1-128), Headworks Rehabilitation at Plant No. 1 (Project No. P1-105), and Primary Treatment Rehabilitation at Plant No. 2 (Project No. P2-98) with projected expenditures of $5.9 million and $8.9 million, $8.1M respectively in FY 2020-21. Note these Projects are heading into construction towards the latter half of FY 2020-21 and portions of these expenditures include this. 53 percent of the FY 2020-21 net CIP outlay will be spent in construction. The four most significant construction projects are the Ocean Outfall System Rehabilitation (Project No. J-117), Westminster Blvd. Force Main Replacement (Project No. 3-62), Return Activated Sludge Piping Replacement at Plant No. 2 (Project No. P2-123), and Newhope-Placentia Trunk Replacement (Project No. 2-72) with projected FY 2020-21 expenditures of $26.1 million, $11.6 million, $6.1 million, and $18.4 million, respectively.

Debt financing allows OCSD to meet projected construction schedules while achieving the lowest possible user fees, as well as long-term stability in future sewer service fee rates. Certificates of Participation (COP) The primary debt financing mechanism used is Certificates of Participation (COP). COPs are repayment obligations based on a lease or installment sale agreement. The COP structure was selected over other structures because COPs are not viewed as debt by the State of California, as the purchaser does not actually receive a “bond,” but rather a share in an installment sale arrangement where OCSD serves as the purchaser. COPs can be issued with fixed or variable interest rates. As of July 1, 2020, the total outstanding COP indebtedness will be $940.1 million. Build America Bonds Financings OCSD issued the $80.0 million Wastewater Revenue Obligations, Series 2010A in May 2010 and the $157.0 million Wastewater Revenue Obligations, Series 2010C in November 2010 as “Build America Bonds” (BABs) fixed rate debt. The American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009 created a new financing product, BABs, for the municipal issuer. BABs are issued as higher interest taxable bonds; however, the U.S. Treasury provides a 35 percent subsidy on interest payments. The net cost, after accounting for the 35 percent subsidy payment, frequently results in lower net costs to the issuer, specifically in the maturity years beyond ten years. On March 1, 2013, the federal government implemented certain automatic spending cuts known as the sequester. As a result of the sequester, federal subsidy payments on BABs have been reduced annually from a high of 8.7 percent for the federal fiscal year ended September 30, 2013 to a low of 5.9 percent for the federal fiscal year ended September 30, 2020. Dedicated Funding Source In 1992 and 2004 the Board of Directors formalized the dedication of certain funding sources. To assure the continuation of favorable credit ratings, revenues were dedicated to debt service in the following order: 1. Ad valorem property taxes 2. Sanitary sewer service charges 3. Other revenues This apportionment of the ad valorem tax was consistent with and pursuant to the Revenue Program adopted in April 1979 to comply with regulations of the Environmental Protection Agency and the State Water Resources Control Board and in accordance with COP documents and Board policy. OCSD Maintains AAA Bond Rating OCSD’s bond rating is “AAA” from both Fitch Ratings and Moody’s. An “AAA” Rating is the highest for a government agency. In order to maintain this rating, OCSD adheres to its debt policy and coverage ratio requirements. This Board- adopted policy serves as the agency’s guide in the management of existing debt and in the issuance of future debt. Debt Ratios OCSD has contractual covenants within the existing COP agreements which require minimum coverage ratios of 1.25. The minimum coverage ratio is the ratio of net annual revenues available for debt service requirements to total annual debt service requirements for all senior lien COP debt. The coverage ratio for senior lien COP debt is being proposed to remain above 4.00 for fiscal years 2020-21 and 2021-22. Future Financings No new money debt issuances are being proposed over the next two fiscal years as the $2.7 billion in future replacement, rehabilitation, and refurbishment projects anticipated over the next ten years will be adequately funded through current sewer service fee charges and existing reserves.

Provision has been made in these salary projections to comply with the terms of the most recently adopted Memorandum’s of Understanding. Retirement – OCSD employees are members of the Orange County Employees’ Retirement System (OCERS). Information from OCERS indicates that the employer’s required contribution rates will be increased in FY 2020-21 from 13.3 percent to 14.1 percent. In addition, OCSD pays 3.5 percent of the employee required contribution. Group Insurance – These expenses include OCSD’s share (approximately $15,200 per employee) of employee medical plan benefits for the indemnity plan, prepaid HMO plans, dental insurance plan, and life and disability insurance premiums. The proposed budget includes a seven percent increase for medical plans starting January 2020. Contractual Services – $19.2M The treatment plants currently produce about 800 wet tons per day of biosolids which are recycled in California and Arizona. About half of the biosolids are currently allocated to create compost and the other half is used on farms to grow feed and seed crops. The FY 2020-21 biosolids budget is $12.4 million, approximately 65 percent of the Contractual Services budget. Other residuals solids and waste includes disposal costs for grit and screening waste, digester cleaning waste, and hazardous materials. This category also includes appropriations for grounds keeping, janitorial, security, toxic waste removal, outside laboratory, trash pickup, plant site sweeping, closed circuit television pipeline inspections, line cleaning, and temporary services. Repairs and Maintenance – $28.4M This item, which is for parts and services for repair of plant and collection facilities and annual service contracts, is expected to increase $4.1 million, or 17.0 percent above the FY 2019-20 projected costs of $24.3 million. EXECUTIVE SUMMARY — FISCAL YEARS 2020-21 and 2021-2022 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY — FISCAL YEARS 2020-21 and 2021-2022 31 FISCAL YEARS 2020-21 AND 2021-22 BUDGET Planned repairs that contribute to the increase include: Bushard diversion structure repair $1.1M; Plant No. 1 secondary clarifier collector $2.0M; and Plant No. 1 collections variable frequency drives $1.3M. Operating Materials and Supplies – $21.5M Chemical Coagulants – Anionic polymer is added to the influent wastewater along with ferric chloride to improve solids removal efficiencies in the primary clarifiers. Ferric chloride is also added to the digesters for solids odor control. Cationic polymer is added to digested sludge prior to dewatering to aid in coagulation, improving the sludge and water separation process. Cationic polymer is also added to the waste activated sludge dissolved air flotation thickeners (DAFTs) to improve solids coagulation. The costs for this group of chemicals are expected to slightly increase by $1,600 or 0.0 percent above the FY 2019-20 projected costs of $10.5 million. Odor Control Chemicals – OCSD uses hydrogen peroxide, sodium hydroxide (caustic soda), sodium hypochlorite (bleach) and muriatic acid as the primary odor control chemicals in the treatment plants. Ferrous chloride, magnesium hydroxide, calcium nitrate, and caustic soda are the primary odor control chemicals used in the collection system. The FY 2020-21 budget for these chemicals is $6.9million, 11.5 percent higher than the FY 2019-20 projected costs of $6.2 million. Utilities – $8.4M During FY 2020-21, the overall cost for utilities, a significant component of the operating budget, is anticipated to decrease by $119,000, or 1.4 percent. Natural Gas – Natural gas is purchased from two providers for different purposes. Purchases from a gas marketer are used to supplement the digester gas that is used to run the CenGen facilities. The FY 2020-21 natural gas budget is $710,000, 0.1 percent higher than the projected FY 2019-20 costs. Electricity – Electricity is the largest utility cost incurred by OCSD. Purchased electricity is used in running the plant processes as a supplement to power produced in the central generation facilities. The FY 2020-21 proposed budget is $6.1 million, 2.6 percent lower than the FY 2019-20 projected. Water – Water is used throughout the treatment plants. Potable (drinking) water is supplied by the Cities of Fountain Valley and Huntington Beach; reclaimed water is supplied by the GAP; and plant water is disinfected secondary effluent. • GAP water is secondary treated effluent from OCSD that is further treated by the Orange County Water District. GAP water is significantly less expensive than potable water and is used in the process wherever possible. The major uses of GAP water include cooling water, solids handling, and landscaping. By agreement, OCSD receives up to 1,120 acre feet per year of GAP water at no charge, $10,000 is proposed for GAP water in FY 2020-21 budget. • Potable Water – The potable water budget includes water supplied by the City of Fountain Valley for Plant No. 1 and the City of Huntington Beach for Plant No. 2. Approximately 5 percent of the potable water at Plant No. 1 is used for domestic uses and less than 1 percent is used for irrigation. The majority of the irrigation at both plants uses reclaimed water. Less than 1 percent of the potable water used at Plant No. 2 is for domestic uses due to the relatively small number of employees at Plant No. 2. The proposed total potable water cost for FY 2020-21 is $995,000, a 1.0 percent increase from the projected FY 2019-20 costs. Professional Services – $5.7M Professional Services includes General Counsel, special labor counsel, audit and miscellaneous accounting services, legislative advocacy, engineering, and other technical consulting services. Other Operating Material, Supplies, Services – $4.7M This category of costs includes the in-lieu insurance premium used to maintain the level of accumulated reserves for the property and general liability self- insurance programs. This in-lieu cost for FY 2020-21 is proposed at $1.8 million. Expenses not chargeable to other categories, such as freight and miscellaneous items, and annual regulatory fees assessed by the South Coast Air Quality Management District, are recorded with this category. Insurance – $2.4M OCSD’s outside excess general liability insurance coverage is $40 million per occurrence with self- insurance retention of $500,000. OCSD’s property insurance coverage is $1 billion for perils of fire and $300 million for perils of flood, subject to a self-insurance retention of $250,000. OCSD is partially self-insured for earthquake, EXECUTIVE SUMMARY — FISCAL YEARS 2020-21 and 2021-2022 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY — FISCAL YEARS 2020-21 and 2021-202232 OPERATING EXPENSES but does carry $25 million in coverage on 15 key structures with a $5 million deductible. OCSD also has a $50 million sublimit for builder’s risk under the property insurance program to ensure upcoming construction projects are adequately covered. An appropriation of $1.5 million for in-lieu premium contribution charged to operations is recommended for the Property and General Liability Program. This will serve to maintain the reserves balance. Administrative Expenses – $2.0M These accounts include supplies, postage, technical journals and publications, forms, small office equipment, and small computer items that cost less than $10,000 per item and exclude items that are capitalized. Training and Meetings – $1.1M Board member and staff travel has been significantly reduced in recent years. This category also includes meetings of professional societies; ongoing technical training and materials for staff; training for computerized plant monitoring and control systems, MAXIMO (a computerized maintenance management system), Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP), and other “high tech” equipment, processes and systems; and training to allow for an adaptive and flexible work force. While OCSD continues to place an emphasis on effective safety training, as well as technical, leadership and management training, the training budget is at approximately 1.1 percent of budgeted regular salaries due to savings achieved in part through the use of online courses. Research and Monitoring – $1.3M Research and monitoring expenditures consist of contract services to carry out the extensive ocean monitoring program required by the EPA under provisions of OCSD’s NPDES permit; air quality monitoring costs; OCSD’s contribution to the Southern California Coastal Water Research Project (SCCWRP) being conducted under a joint powers agreement with other Southern California municipal dischargers; and also provide for increased operational and ocean research and evaluation to develop optimum operating parameters in treatment plants. Printing and Publication – $0.4M The budget provides for in-house and outside reproduction costs and reflects an expanded management information system and administrative requirements, as well as a continuing demand by the public and regulatory agencies for information. The continuing effort of the Public Affairs Office to improve public education programs about OCSD’s activities is also reflected in the budget for this line item. This group of accounts also includes costs for photo processing, advertisements, and notices. Cost Allocation – ($20.8M) This represents direct labor and benefit charge outs and materials, supplies and services cost allocation to the capital projects where the related work was performed.

METERING AND DIVERSION Wastewater enters our plant at 2.5 - 5 mph through pipes up to 10 feet in diameter. High tech equipment monitors the temperature, pH, conductivity, and flow of the incoming wastewater. 2. PRELIMINARY TREATMENT Raw sewage passes through bar screens that trap large items like rags that cannot be recycled. Materials like egg shells and coffee grounds are then removed through the grit chamber that uses high pressure air to separate the gritty material. 3. AIR SCRUBBER Hydrogen sulfide (foul air) is captured throughout the process and funneled into large silos. It passes through a plastic medium and mixes with caustic soda and bleach. Causing the odorous compounds to be neutralized. 4. PRIMARY TREATMENT Primary clarifiers or settling basins, slow the water down to allow the solids in the wastewater that readily settle or float to be separated from the water being treated. Collector arms that move along the top and the bottom remove over 80 percent of the influent wastewater solids. Solids are then sent to the digesters for processing. 5. SECONDARY TREATMENT Trickling filters and aeration basins are used to further clean the water. In trickling filters the water is sprayed over a honeycomb type material upon which aerobic bacteria grow. As the water trickles down, the microorganisms consume the solids that were not removed through primary treatment. Aeration tanks use a combination of oxygen and microorganisms, (activated sludge) that consume the remaining organic solids. Treated water is then sent to the Orange County Water District for recycling, or discharged into the ocean. 7. SOLIDS PROCESSING Solids captured from primary and secondary treatment are batch loaded into anaerobic digesters where they are heated to about 98 degrees and treated for 18-21 days. The digestion process produces methane gas and a material called biosolids. Biosolids are sent to the dewatering facility where they are run through dewatering centrifuges. The centrifuges spin the biosolids separating water from the solids. This process saves OCSD several million dollars per year in truck hauling costs. The nutrient-rich biosolids are trucked off to farms where they are recycled for direct land application and composting. 8. CENTRAL GENERATION Methane gas that is captured from digesters is compressed and used to fuel engine generators that produce electricity, supplying more than 60% of our energy needs. PA 03/2019 6. GROUNDWATER REPLENSMENT SYSTEM A joint project between Orange County Sanitation District and Orange County Water District. This system reduces the amount of wastewater discharged to the Pacific Ocean and creates a reliable supply of high- quality water that is drought-resilient. Orange County Sanitation DistrictWastewater Treatment Process Biosolids Our Policy OCSD strives to recycle our biosolids using sustainable options while protecting public health and the environment. Some of our biosolids are recycled and used like fertilizer on farm fields to create and maintain healthy soils and improve crop yields. Some of OCSD’s biosolids are further processed through composting to create a consumer-grade soil amendment that is distributed to agricultural, commercial and residential users. Our Program Orange County’s biosolids are safe, highly-regulated, and meet the most restrictive standards. In order to maintain these high-quality standards for recycling our biosolids, OCSD maintains a comprehensive and award- winning Source Control Program that has significantly reduced the amount of pollutants entering our facilities and biosolids. Fertilizing farmland with biosolids is a win-win for the environment because we are recycling a renewable resource and creating productive farmland. It’s a win for farmers because research has demonstrated using biosolids increases crop yields. And this biosolids management option is a win for local sewer rate payers since it is a low-tech, low-cost, reliable option that helps keep sewer rates low.

Know what should go downthe drain that is sewer safe It’s simple, the toilet is only meant to flush the three Ps—pee, poop and paper. Unfortunately, over the years, people have turned the toilet into a trash can. From medications and sanitary products to deceased pet fish and cigarette butts. If it fits, people flush it. Flushing these types of items down the toilet causes home pipes to clog, wastes water (up to five gallons of water every time you flush) and most importantly can have a huge impact on our sewers, not to mention our ocean. Besides the three Ps the only other thing going down the drain should be soap and water. The toilet is not the only drain that people are using to get rid of unwanted waste; people are also known to use the kitchen sink as a trash can. Letting trash flow and go down the kitchen sink (or any other drain in the house) may cause pipes to clog and can eventually lead to sewage spills that harm the environment. Visit www.What2Flush.com to learn how to properly dispose of common items that people flush or dump down the drain. Let’s keep our wastewater flowing and our oceans clean. Educate yourself and others. Know What 2 Flush and what to put down the drain. Protect our sewers and environment! The Groundwater Replenishment System (GWRS) is the world’s largest advanced water purification system for potable reuse. It takes treated wastewater that otherwise would be sent to the Pacific Ocean and purifies it using a three-step advanced process. The design and construction of the GWRS was jointly funded by the Orange County Sanitation District (OCSD) and the Orange County Water District (OCWD). Together OCSD and OCWD constructed one of the most celebrated civil engineering and water reuse projects in the world. The GWRS provides a reliable supply of highly purified, near-distilled quality water. Even during drought years, the GWRS offers a more cost-effective and energy-efficient way of producing water. GWRS provides the county with new water it can count on. The project serves as a model for other regions throughout the United States and the world. Reclamation Plant No. 1 and Administration Offices 10844 Ellis Avenue, Fountain Valley, California 92708 Treatment Plant No. 2 22212 Brookhurst Street, Huntington Beach, California 92646 Phone: 714.962.2411 Email: forinformation@ocsd.com Website: ocsd.com The Orange County Sanitation District (OCSD) is a public agency that provides wastewater collection, treatment, recycling, and disposal services for approximately 2.6 million people in our service area of central and northern Orange County. OCSD is a special district that is governed by a Board of Directors consisting of 25 board members. OCSD has two operating facilities in Fountain Valley and Huntington Beach that treat wastewater from residential, commercial, and industrial sources. Follow the Flow: Pretreatment: All the cities’ sewers connect to OCSD’s collections system that transports the wastewater to our treatment plants. Before the sewage enters our facilities, our Source Control Program permits and inspects business and industry that discharge waste into the sewers. Maintaining and protecting our trunklines from corrosion and odor issues is also an important part of what we do. 1. Metering and Diversion: Wastewater enters our treatment plants through trunklines up to 10-feet in diameter at a speed of 2.5-5 mph. Automated equipment measures the pH, conductivity, flow, and temperature. Data is monitored by operators around the clock. 2. Preliminary Treatment: Consists of two parts – bar screens and grit chambers. First, sewage passes through metal bars that catch large items (rags, trash, wood, etc.). Next, grit chambers use air bubbles to suspend lighter material while heavier grit (egg shells, coffee grounds, gravel, sand, etc.) sinks to the bottom and is removed. Screenings and grit are sent to a landfill. 3. Air Scrubber: Most processes that produce odors are covered and the foul air is drawn off for cleaning (deodorizing) by air scrubbers. OCSD uses both chemical and biofilter systems. Hydrogen sulfides (sewer gas smell) are neutralized by using caustic soda, bleach, or live microorganisms. 4. Advanced Primary Treatment: Chemicals (ferric chloride and anionic polymer) are added to the preliminary treated sewage to improve settling. Heavier suspended solids clump together and sink to the bottom (sludge). Lighter waste (grease and oil) float to the surface (scum). This process takes about 2 hours and up to 80% of the suspended solids are continuously removed by scraper arms that revolve along the top and bottom of the basin. These solids are sent to digesters for further processing. 5. Secondary Treatment: Advanced primary treated sewage is sent to either trickling filters or activated sludge processes were aerobic microorganisms eat the remaining dissolved waste from the water. The secondary treated wastewater is then settled in clarifiers allowing the remaining sludge (either live or dead microorganisms) to be removed. Activated sludge process uses aeration basins to mix oxygen and microorganisms to enhance the waste removal rate. Some of the sludge is pumped back into the aeration basin as return activated sludge to regenerate the basin. The remaining sludge is thickened and sent to digesters. Final Effluent: The secondary treated wastewater from Plant No. 1 is sent to the Orange County Water District for advanced treatment through the Groundwater Replenishment System (GWRS). This water is used to replenish Orange County’s groundwater aquifers and protect against seawater intrusion. The secondary treated wastewater from Plant No. 2 is safely released though our ocean pipeline five miles out to sea at a depth of 200 feet below the ocean surface.

FROM:James D. Herberg, General Manager Originator: Lorenzo Tyner, Assistant General Manager SUBJECT: FY 2020-21 USER FEE RATE ADJUSTMENT GENERAL MANAGER'S RECOMMENDATION RECOMMENDATION: Information Item. BACKGROUND In 2018,the Orange County Sanitation District (Sanitation District)approved a five-year rate schedule which included annual user fee rate increases of approximately 1%or $4 per year for the base single -family residential rate.However,due to the impacts of COVID-19,local economies and constituents face increased financial pressure.As a result,the Board Chair has requested that staff research and report back the impact of postponing the fiscal year 2020-21 rate adjustment one year,implementing the change in fiscal year 2021-22. Foregoing the 2020-21 rate adjustment and resuming annual 1%rate adjustments in 2021-22 would result in a $71 million loss in revenue to the Sanitation District.Staff has determined that the most effective means of mitigating this revenue loss without impacting existing capital or operating programs is through adjustments in the Sanitation District’s Debt Program. ADDITIONAL INFORMATION The 2019-20 and subsequent 2020-21 budgets were balanced assuming rate adjustments of 1%in each year.However,the 2019-20 capital and operating expenditures were less than anticipated, resulting in additional available funds.When developing the 2020-21 budget,staff incorporated an advanced repayment of an existing $71 million debt issuance as part of an overall strategy to reduce the Sanitation District’s total debt, saving the expense of future interest payments. At the May 27 Steering Committee meeting,recognizing the economic impacts of COVID-19,the Steering Committee directed staff to determine the financial impact of a foregoing the scheduled 2020-21 rate adjustment and resuming the annual 1%annual rate adjustments in fiscal year 2021- 22. Should the Board determine that it is in the best interest to forego the scheduled 2020-21 rate Orange County Sanitation District Printed on 6/2/2020Page 1 of 2 powered by Legistar™ File #:2020-1093 Agenda Date:6/10/2020 Agenda Item No:9. Should the Board determine that it is in the best interest to forego the scheduled 2020-21 rate increase,the most direct impact would be that the Sanitation District would lose approximately $71 million in revenue. Opportunities to increase revenue in other areas are limited.Addressing the revenue loss by reducing expenditures would potentially impact capital and/or operating programs.Therefore,staff believes that the least impactful means of addressing this revenue loss would be to remove the early debt issuance repayment from the budget and continue its regularly scheduled payments.As the debt issuance has a relatively low interest rate (3.5%),the savings associated with an early repayment would have been minimal.Additionally,the debt issuance could be refunded or rolled into another debt issuance in the future, generating similar savings.

FROM:James D. Herberg, General Manager Originator: Lorenzo Tyner, Assistant General Manager SUBJECT: INTERNAL REVENUE CODE SECTION 115 TRUST PENSION ACCOUNT GENERAL MANAGER'S RECOMMENDATION RECOMMENDATION: Information Item. BACKGROUND The Orange County Sanitation District (Sanitation District)provides various benefits to its employees, including retirement and other post-employment benefits.Each year,staff considers various options to fund these benefits,paying down any unfunded liabilities,making additional payments to Orange County Employees Retirement System (OCERS)and Internal Revenue Code section 115 trust (115 trust) opportunities. The Sanitation District Board of Directors has requested staff provide information on the 115 trust concept so that the Board can determine if additional investigation is warranted. ADDITIONAL INFORMATION Two of the Sanitation District’s core benefits are its retirement program,which is administered by OCERS,and its Other Post-Employment Benefits (OPEB)which is administered internally.The Sanitation District contributes funds to OCERS annually to fund its pension costs.Separately,it maintains funds to cover the costs of its OPEB program. The Board may be most familiar with CalPERS,the agency that provides pension services for all the cities that are member agencies of the Sanitation District and most cities in California.However,the Sanitation District retirement administration and services are provided by OCERS.OCERS provides similar services as CalPERS,but is a completely separate entity from CalPERS and maintains different investment policies and strategies.OCERS tends to invest more conservatively than CalPERS and has a higher funding level. To enhance its pension returns and eliminate any unfunded liabilities,the Sanitation District has used a strategy of paying off any unfunded liabilities immediately and,as appropriate,overfunding its pension fund account with OCERS.However,there are cities,public agencies,and special districts that make use of a 115 trust to help them better manage the short-term costs and long-term liabilities Orange County Sanitation District Printed on 6/2/2020Page 1 of 2 powered by Legistar™ File #:2020-1096 Agenda Date:6/10/2020 Agenda Item No:10. that make use of a 115 trust to help them better manage the short-term costs and long-term liabilities associated with pensions. A 115 trust is a vehicle for segregating agency funds from general assets for the purpose of funding essential governmental functions.For example,a 115 trust can be used to set aside monies to meet future pension contributions or liabilities.Funds placed in a 115 trust are irrevocably committed for the essential government function(s)specified in the applicable trust agreement (e.g.,pension obligations).Therefore,the monies held in such trusts can be invested in accordance with the rules governing such special purpose accounts. For example,115 trust funds dedicated to satisfying pension obligations can be invested in the same manner as funds in a typical pension fund rather than as part of the agency’s general fund.Thus,by setting aside funds in a 115 trust,agencies can potentially earn a higher rate of return on monies set aside for future pension obligations.Conversely,as a 115 trust allows for more aggressive investing, there is a greater potential for loss when the market performs badly. Each year,staff reviews and considers pension funding options,including additional payments to OCERS and 115 trust opportunities.To date,staff has determined that making additional payments to OCERS is a safe and cost-effective way of reducing pension costs.However,a detailed financial comparison of this strategy versus the use of a 115 trust has not been completed. Should the Board determine that the Sanitation District should further investigate the use of a 115 trust,staff recommends that a more detailed financial review be conducted.Such review would include the collection of return rates of various 115 trusts and OCERS for comparison. As 115 trusts allows for more varied investing,it is important to review different market histories.For example,data from 2019 would provide important data as the markets performed well.A more aggressively invested 115 trust would do well in that market.However,2020 would be equally important as 2020 is shaping up to be a poor performing year.As such,an aggressively positioned 115 trust might perform worse in such an environment. Additionally,while this financial analysis is necessary,it would not be the only factor to be considered. There are policy factors such as management and financial control that must be considered.
