[-+ Dig.11 Volatile Reduction%
Volatile Reduction:
The volatile reduction of a digester is a key performance indicator of the digester's efficiency. It is a ratio that considers the percentage of volatile solids in the
matter that enters and exits the digester to determine what percentage was removed during digestion.
This calculation is a roll-up of other calculations. The power of the Data Warehouse system is that it can render a valuable piece of information on a daily basis
that would have required several manual steps previously. Since there are multiple data points involved, often these types of formulas were previously calculated
on a monthly basis.

There is an online description of the source of every data point and formula. This type of information is called business metadata. This is very useful for the user
to verify the source, unit and calculation of the information being viewed. It is also necessary so that the user understands the context of the information.

The total costs for Plant 1 & 2 divided by the total influent to both Plants has been a long standing efficiency number published by the Districts on a monthly basis.
The system can calculate the unofficial version of this number on a daily basis.
The total costs are a daily 60 day rolling average of all costs in the General Ledger that are associated with a process subledger plus the subledgers for Source
Control, Air Quality, or the Lab. The influent flows are based on computerized meter readings on the influent trunk lines. All of these data points can be
individually graphed in order to verify accuracy.
Note that each plant has a total cost per input unit on the graph. These numbers are calculated similarly except that they exclude costs for Source Control, Air
Quality, and the Lab.

By profiling an Asset, the user can graph a comparison between the value of the Asset and the cost of Maintenance for the Asset. In this example the engine cost
$1,000,000., the current depreciated value is $680,000. (based on straight line depreciation from purchase date to the end of the report date range), and the total
cost of Maintenance for the report date range is about $15,000.
Maintenance costs include Personnel and Equipment from the Maintenance System (CMMS) and Materials and Contractors from the Finance System (FIS).

SUBJECT: QUARTERLY INVESTMENT MANAGEMENT PROGRAM
REPORT FOR THE PERIOD APRIL 1, 1999 THROUGH
JUNE 30, 1999
GENERAL MANAGER'S RECOMMENDATION
Receive and file the Quarterly Investment Management Program Report for the
period April 1, 1999 through June 30, 1999.
SUMMARY
Section 15.0 of the District's Investment Policy includes monthly and quarterly
reporting requirements for the District's two investment portfolios. These two
funds, the "Liquid Operating Monies," and the "Long-Term Operating Monies,"
are managed by PIMCO, the District's external money manager.
The ongoing monitoring of the District's investment program by staff and Callan
Associates, the District's independent investment advisor, indicates that the
District's investments are in compliance with the District's adopted Investment
Policy and the California Government Code, and that overall performance has
tracked with benchmark indices. In addition, sufficient funds are available for the
District to meet its operating expenditure requirements for the next six months.
The District's portfolios do not include any reverse repurchase agreements or
derivative securities.

Market Recap
Interest rates rose sharply during the second quarter of 1999 as continued rapid
growth in the U.S. economy, and signs of recovery in overseas markets,
heightened concern that the Federal Reserve would boost interest rates to
prevent a resurgence in inflation.
H:\wp dtalfin\21 0\kozak\QuarterlylnvMgmtReport9-99.doc
Revised: 1/5/98 Page 2
On the last day of the quarter, the Fed raised the federal funds rate 25 basis
points, from 4.75% to 5.00%, in a pre-emptive move to control inflation. Rising
interest rates created an unfavorable setting for bonds in the second quarter,
affecting all fixed income market sectors.
Rates rose across the entire Treasury yield curve, driven largely by the belief of
investors that the Fed would raise interest rates. As depicted in the attached
comparative graph of the Historical Yield Curve, the yield on the 30-year
Treasury benchmark jumped 34 basis points when compared to the end of the
first quarter 1999 (5.62%), ending the second quarter at 5.96%. Yields on 10-
year Treasury bonds ended the quarter at 5.78%, a climb of 56 basis points from
the end of the first quarter (5.23%).
Shorter rates showed similar significant increases. The 3-month Treasury rate
increased by 31 basis points (from 4.46% to 4.77%); the 6-month rate jumped a
full 51 basis points (from 4.52 % to 5.03%); and the 1-year rate rose 36 basis
points (from 4.70% to 5.06%).
For the Long-Term Operating Monies portfolio, PIMCO maintained a weighted
maturity or duration slightly above the duration index (2.4 vs. 2.3 years},
emphasizing holdings in mortgage-backed bonds, investment grade corporate
notes, and U.S. Agency securities. The performance of the portfolio lagged its
benchmark by ten basis points for the second quarter (0.10% vs. 0.20%).
Generally, the slight under-performance of the Long-Term portfolio in the short-
term was due to: First, the above-index duration maintained by PIMCO, which
detracted from returns on the margin as yields rose, especially in June. Since
bond prices and yields move in opposite directions, bond prices fell as yields
rose. In June, the price decline was greater than the income earned on the
bonds, and total return declined for the quarter. Second, PIMCO's emphasis on
mortgage and corporate holdings, as these investment sectors under-performed
the index during the month of June. In the long-term, by comparison, PIMCO
has outperformed the index by 29 basis points on an annualized basis since
inception of the investment program in September 1995.
For the Liquid Operating Monies portfolio, PIMCO used a duration posture
slightly above index (approximately 130 days vs. 90 days), emphasizing slightly
longer short-term U.S. Agency discount notes and high-quality corporate
commercial paper than the index. This added returns to the portfolio, which
slightly outperformed its benchmark (1.2% vs. 1.1 %) for the second quarter.
Market Outlook
Forecasts from PIMCO report that economic expansion will continue, though at a
slower pace, as higher interest rates begin to slow consumer and investment
spending. Moderating growth and relatively low inflation will keep interest rates
near their current levels over the coming months, making yield more important
than price movement in determining portfolio returns.
H:\wp,dta\fin\21 0\kozak\QuarterlylnvMgmtReport9-99.doc
Revised: 1/5/98 Page 3
The PIMCO investment strategy targets portfolio duration slightly above index to
take advantage of higher yields provided by longer maturity securities. PIMCO
indicates that they will emphasize short maturity holdings in investment-grade
corporates and adjustable rate mortgage securities, and longer maturity holdings
in U.S. Agency debentures and high-quality asset backed and mortgage backed
securities.
The attached letter from PIMCO provides a more detailed description of second
quarter market conditions, portfolio returns, future market outlook, and their
recommended investment strategy for the District's Long-Term Operating Monies
portfolio.

I would like to take this opportunity to review events in the bond market during the second
quarter and to describe the investment strategy that PIMCO utilized on behalf of the Sanitation
District during the period. Finally, I would like to describe PIMCO's current economic outlook
and the manner in which our economic outlook, combined with relative value opportunities in the
bond market, lead to our investment strategy going forward.
Bond Market Review:
Concern that the continued health of the U.S. domestic economy would spark inflation and lead
the Federal Reserve Board to tighten monetary policy caused interest rates to rise all across the
maturity spectrum during the second quarter. U.S. interest rates rose by an average forty basis
points in three-month to one-year Treasury bills. Rates rose by an average fifty-three basis points
in two-year to ten-year Treasury notes. Rates rose by thirty-four basis points in the longest
maturity thirty-year Treasury bond to end the period at 5.96 percent.
Not surprisingly, given the dramatic rise in interest rates, the bond market turned in relatively
poor performance over the period. The Merrill Lynch Government/Corporate bond index, the
index against which PIMCO is measured for the Sanitation District's long-term portfolio,
returned 0.22 percent for the quarter. (The 0.22 percent total return is the sum of the price return
on the bonds in the index and the coupon return of the bonds in the index.) The increase in
yields, which occurred over the period, led to a negative price return for the index of -1.269
percent. The coupon income of 1.497 percent for the index offset the price losses and led to the
0.22 percent total return for the period.
As you recall, the Merrill index is made up of all existing Treasury bonds with maturities between
one and five years, all agencies bonds with maturities between one and five years, and all
investment-grade corporate bonds of the same maturities. The index is created on a market-value
weighted basis so that Treasuries represent sixty-one percent of the index, agencies represent
approximately fifteen percent of the index, and corporate bonds represent twenty-four percent of
the index. Returns vary by security type. In the second quarter, for example, the total return of
the Treasury component of the index was 0.26 percent return. The total return of the agency and
corporate component of the index were 0.31 and 0.15 percent, respectively.
Pacific Investment Management Company is a general partnership whose partners are PIMCO Management Inc. and PIMCQ Advisors LP.

OCSD 's Second Quarter Return:
As an active bond manager, PIMCO has three weapons within its strategic arsenal. The first
strategy, duration, is the price sensitivity of the portfolio to changes in interest rates. Because
price and yield changes move in opposite directions, we would choose to have an above-index
duration posture ifwe forecasted a decline in interest rates. Likewise, we would choose to have a
below-index duration posture if we forecasted an increase in interest rates. (Our duration strategy
in the OCSD-Long term portfolio is limited to+/-.45 years around the index.) The second
strategy, curve or maturity mix, involves investing more heavily in that segment of the yield
curve that is expected to outperform. If, for example, PIMCO's outlook called for interest rates
to decline more extensively in two-to-five year maturities than in other segments of the yield
curve, we would invest more heavily in the intermediate segment of the curve. The final
strategy, sector/issue selection, involves overweighting or underweighting a sector of the bond
market. If, for example, PIMCO expected investment-grade corporates to outperform Treasuries,
we would overweight the corporate sector. The extent of our overweight or underweight is
limited by our desire to preclude any single strategy from significantly impacting return in the
event that our outlook is wrong.
During the second quarter, PIMCO's strategy for the OCSD Long-Term portfolio was to have a
slightly longer-than-index duration posture in expectation of a modest decline in yields. Our
duration was never more than 0.15 years above the duration of the index so that the cost of this
strategy in terms of performance was less than five basis points. Our curve strategy was to have a
broader-than-index exposure to maturities across the yield curve. This posture was modestly
positive as rates rose the most in one to five year maturities. Finally, our sector strategy was to
have greater-than-index exposure to agency debentures, corporate bonds and mortgage securities.
For example, we held sixteen percent in agency securities rather than the fifteen percent
represented i~ the index. We also held thirty-two percent in corporates securities as opposed to
the twenty-four percent represented in the index. Finally, we held eighteen percent of mortgage
securities that have no weighting in the Merrill 1-5 government/corporate index. While our
decision to overweight agency securities proved positive, our sector strategy detracted from
performance overall. The yield advantage to Treasuries available through corporates and
mortgages failed to offset the price losses on these securities as credit spreads widened slightly
over the period. The net result of our strategies over the quarter was to achieve a .1 percent total
return underperforming the index by .1 percent. Clearly, while we strive to outperform the index
every quarter, our true value is longer-term in nature. Since inception of our relationship, PIMCO
has outperformed the index by 29 basis points on an annualized basis.
Outlook and Strategy:
During our secular forum that occurred in May, PIMCO shifted our long-term outlook to neutral
from our previous bullish stance and expect 30-year Treasury yields to remain within a 5 percent
to 6.5 percent band over the next three years. Inflation will remain near 2 percent.

Outlook and Strategy: (Continued)
The 17-year bull market in bonds, during which Treasury yields plunged from more than 15
percent in 1981 to below 5 percent last year, occurred within an environment of economic
growth, rising productivity and disinflation driven by the spread of capitalism worldwide. There
are now fewer countries left to embrace capitalism, and we do not see other major economic,
political or social trends that will drive rates much below the bottom of our secular range.
Meanwhile, disinflationary forces such as global excess capacity and productivity enhancements
created by new technologies will limit rate increases. Our range-bound interest rate forecast is
based on the view that forces of deflation and inflation are roughly in balance:
• The global economy is safer than last year, when weak Asian economies, currency
devaluations and falling commodity prices raised the specter of global deflation.
• Fiscal stimulus and more than 300 separate central bank easings calmed financial markets and
produced signs of recovery in Japan and several Pacific Rim countries.
• Global reflation is unlikely due to excess supply and structural impediments to growth in
Europe and Japan.
• Inflexible labor markets in Europe will prevent assimilation of growth-producing new
technologies, while Japan's high savings rates will frustrate fiscal and monetary stimulus.
• The direction and momentum of the U.S. stock market will strongly influence our forecast. If
recent gains in stocks continue, enhanced consumer confidence will lead to faster growth. A
stronger economy would induce the Fed to tighten and push interest rates toward the top of
our range.
Economic expansion will continue, though at a slower pace, as higher interest rates reduce growth
in consumer and investment spending. While the Fed may tighten further to help cool the
economy, the central bank will not embark on a protracted series of rate hikes such as last
occurred in 1994. Compared to 1994, real interest rates are higher, inflation is lower and recent
monetary stimulus has been less substantial. Inflation will trend upward due to a leveling off of
commodity prices after recent declines, but global excess capacity and technology-driven
productivity gains will limit these increases.
Moderating growth and relatively low inflation will keep interest rates near current levels over the
next few months, making yield more important than price movement in determining portfolio
returns. Prudent alternatives for generating extra yield include: premiums from written options;
securities with embedded options such as mortgages; and higher-quality below-investment grade

Outlook and Strategy: (Continued)
and emerging market bonds. (We do not use options, below investment-grade securities or
emerging market bonds in the OCSD portfolios.)
In terms of the OCSD Long-Term portfolio, we will embark upon a slightly greater-than-index
duration posture as opportunities allow. Recent rate moves have pushed yields to near to the top
of our secular range. The duration extension will be extremely modest as we anticipate only a
modest decline in yields. In terms of our curve strategy, we will maintain our broader-than-index
posture as this allows us to minimize exposure to the segment of the curve most impacted by
changes in monetary policy. In terms of sector, we will maintain our weighting to the mortgage
sector anticipating that the yield enhancement available through these securities will allow us to
add to total portfolio return. We will add to short-maturity corporate holdings to take advantage
of the yield enhancement potential available in these bonds while avoiding significant price
deterioration in the event that corporate spreads widen further. Our minimal overweight of
agency debentures will also be maintained given their narrow yield advantage to Treasuries.
Gary, I hope this information proves useful. I look forward to chatting with you in the near
future.
Sincerely,
Rita J. Seymour

savings rate dmppc<l from an already spendthrift 2.4'k in the ftr:;t quarter of l997 lo -1.2'h-in May. the lowest level in post-war
history. The consumer makes up roughly two-thirds of the domestic economy. but has accounted for almost all of the recent

(+4.07%) and Micro Cap (-4.23%).
Within each cap sector liL~t quarter, investors focused on what were
previously considered "boring" value stocks. Although such stocks do not
L ypically offer glamorous stories of fast growth, perceptions of mounting global
demand for mundane goods and services enticed investors to pick up these
cheaply priced stocks. To isolate value from growth. Callan divides its
capitalization indices evenly by price-to-book. creating sub-sectors or growth-
and value-oriented stocks. In the latest quarter. the Callan Large/Medium
Cap Value Index (+9.37%) easily outpaced the Callan Large/Medium Cap
Growth Index ( + 3.33% ). after underperfonning this growth counterpart by
26.25% over the prior five quarters. Within the Small Cap index. however. the
Callan Small Cap Value Index ( + 17 .81 % ) only slightly exceeded its growth
rival (+15.16%).
The strength or value was evident in the performance across the Broad
Market's eleven economic sectors. For example. with it~ cominodity-{lliented
industries. the Ba.sic Materials sector ( + 19 J)4%) was the star pe1former in the
quarter. Within this sector. the particularly attractive industries were al111ni1111m
(+40.89%). paper & forest pmduct.1· (+23.99%). and chemicals (+22.3i!%).
The Capital Goods sector (+15.05%) was another favorite playground of

The Shopping Spree Continues
from page I
n:sult of extremely low inflation and um:mploymenL over the past few years.
Can the U.S. economy continue like this forever'! The helter question
may be: will consumers ever slop spending? For consumer spending to con-
tinue Lo grow like it has over the past year. the savings mte would need to kt.-cp
falling. deeper into negative territory. While not impossible. especially if the
stock market continues to fuel the surge in wealth. it seems improbahle that
households can continue to live that far beyond their current incomes. Accord-
ing to the Callan Broad Market Index, the total valuation of the U.S. stock
market is now close to $ Ll.5 trillion; since the market ha.~ grown faster than
income. a l % market move is a much bigger share of personal income and
wealth than it was IO years ago. Consequently. the U.S. economy is mure vul-
nemblc to a stock market cr.ish. A sustained 20%-30'k concction would likely
cause at least a mild recession.
Looking back. the U.S. economy has probably enjoyed a net benefit from
the financial and economic turmoil that swept through Asia. Russia. and parts
of Latin Ami:rica starting in 1997. Nonetheless. two sectors of the U.S. economy
were negatively affected by the glnhal financial crisis: export-oriented manu-
facturing and commodities. particularly agriculture. An ahundance of crops
and livestock. combined with weak exprnts. has pushed the fann hell into near-
uepression; thus far, the agricultural crisis ha.~ yet to spill over into other indus-
Lries. The Purchasing Managers Index has remained above 50 -the dividing
line hctwecn expansion and contr.11:tion-since Fehruaiy. indicating that manu-
facturing demand is helter than anticipated. The export onlers component of
the Index has also been above 50 since february. perhaps rctlecting a glimmer
of recovery in the glohal economy.

Callan's preliminary rctum for privatc n:al cstate in the latest quart1.:r is
2.115'#. Thi! income component of the return should maintain its momentum.
hut the appreciation component should continue Lo weaken and represent a
smaller percentage of the total return over the quarters ahead.
Though mnsl n:al eslatl! markcL~ remain in equilibrium. the threat of new

Venture capital partnerships arc clearly a key focus for institutional inves-
tors this year. Thi! long-term historical aver.ige for venture capital commit-
menL~. a.~ a percent of total private equity market commitments. has hcen ahout
229f . So far in I 99Y. venture capital funds have received a 50'k increa.~ owr
lhc norm. Investor dollars are readily availahle to partnerships a.~ many lr.ick
rccrn'tls arc looking quite gnu<l. Pannerships an: quickly investing capital in the
lntemet and information technology areas. and the initial puhlic offering and
merger and acquisitioll~ markeL~ for technology companies arc providing li-
quidity.
The Buyouts sector saw a slowdown in the numhcr of deals and dollar
volume lransactcd in the si:cond quarter. Acconling to Huy,mts newsletter. 63
huyout transactions were reported for a total value of $7.6 hilliun. down from
92 deals valued al $8.8 hillion in the first quarter. First-half total transaction
value is down 409f from la.,;L year. Market paiticipanL~ indicated two key causi:s
for the slowdown. First. the high yield market was skitti~h. expc1iencing out-
lluws due to tear of an interest mte hike . Second. high a.~king prices for larger
companies. as puhlic valuations spiked. pul a damper on volume. Securities
Data Corpomtion statistics show that the greatest decline in the market was in
the large transaction area. with the mid-market to smaller dcals declining only
slightly.

GENERAL MANAGER'S RECOMMENDATION
Receive and file Certificates of Participation (COP) Monthly Report for the months of
July and August 1999.
SUMMARY
Since June 1995, the daily rate COP program remarketing agents have been
PaineWebber for the Series "A" and the 1993 Refunding COPs, and J.P. Morgan for
the Series "C" COPs. Most fixed rate Series "B" COPs have been refunded and the
1992 Refunding COPs have always been remarketed by PaineWebber in a weekly
mode.
PROJECT/CONTRACT COST SUMMARY

C8] Not applicable (information item)
ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
For the months of July and August 1999, graphical and tabular reports are attached.
The first graph entitled, "OCSD COP Rate History Report," shows the variable interest
rates on each of the daily rate COPs since the last report, and the effective fixed rate
for the two refunding issues which are covered by an interest rate exchange
agreement commonly called a "swap."
\lradon\dala1'wvp.dtalfin\210'crane\FAHR\Fahr99\Sepl\COPR9-99.dac
R9'11Md: 1 /5198 Page 1
The second bar chart entitled, "Comparative Daily COP Rate History Report," shows .
the performance of the District's Daily Rate COPs as compared to a composite index
rate, which represents the average rate of six similar variable rate daily reset
borrowings.
The third bar chart entitled, "COP Rate History, Comparison of Highest & Lowest
Rates," compares the performance (monthly average interest rate) of the District's
Daily Rate COPs with the highest and lowest monthly average rates from among six
similar variable rate daily reset COPs.
The table entitled, "COP Rate History, Comparison of Monthly Averages," shows the
monthly variable interest rate performance of the District's Daily Rate COPs as
compared to the composite index. Estimated annual interest payments calculated for
a standard $100 million par amount, are also shown.
Variable rates historically rise at the end of each calendar quarter, and especially at
year-end, because of business taxes and liquidity requirements. The rates decline to
prior levels immediately in the following month.
Staff maintains continuous rate monitoring and ongoing dialog with the remarketing
agents to keep the Committee fully informed about developments in the program as
. they occur and at each meeting.

Orange County Sanitation District
FROM: Don McIntyre, General Manager
Originator: Greg Mathews, Assistant to the General Manager
SUBJECT: FY 1998/99 END-OF-YEAR OPERATIONAL REPORT
GENERAL MANAGER'S RECOMMENDATION
This is an information item only.
SUMMARY
The Strategic Goals Workplan and budgetary Performance Objectives are annual
planning tools designed to assist staff in reaching best-in-class status. Staff and
District-wide performance is compared to pre-set benchmark standards or
milestone targets as reflected in these tools. This comparison is designed to
show how well we have completed duties and responsibilities compared to our
expectations.
The FY 1998/99 Workplan, developed as a separate product and distributed to
the Committee at the beginning of last fiscal year, details projects, programs,
objectives and tasks designed to achieve District-wide Strategic Goals.
Milestones were identified that represented successful completion of a major
task. Completion of these task milestones was identified as important to the
success of the agency.
The budgetary performance objectives identify division-wide specific and
measurable functions that staff are expected to perform. These objectives,
detailed in the 1998/99 Budget, are indicative of major day-to-day or special
project functions. Actual performance is measured against established
benchmarks, and staff are held accountable for the results achieved.
The FAHR Committee and Board have been kept apprised of quarterly progress
regarding the workplan and performance objectives in the Financial &
Operational Reports. At the end of the fiscal year, the Finance Department _
prepares a Comprehensive Annual Financial Report (CAFR) that is presented to
the FAHR Committee in November. As the CAFR replaces the financial
component of the Financial & Operational Report, a stand-alone, end-of-year
operational report is provided for the Committee's review.

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
Divisions and departments overall achieved 78% of their year-end budgetary
performance objectives; a 3% improvement over la.st year. Although this is
slightly below the 80% benchmark expected, it represents significant
accomplishments. During a Board Budget Workshop in FY 97/98, several
Directors urged staff to elevate many departmenUdivision performance objectives
to best-ir:i-class status. Staff c0mplied with this request. As a result, however,
some objectives have been missed as little room for error was provided.
Regardless of our collective inability to achieve the 80% overall benchmark, staff
believe we have generally performed very well, given the best-in-class
performance expectations.
Through FY 1998/99, we have completed 280 of 389 Strategic Goal Workplan
tasks--72%. There are several caveat~ associated with this percentage. First,
although we were behind schedule on many tasks throughout the year as
reflected in our Quarterly Financial and Operational Reports, we were able to
complete many delayed projects before the close of the 4th quarter. Second, we
did not properly anticipate or plan for the huge amount of resources that would
be dedicated to the Y2K compliance efforts. This project delayed many other
lower priority projects to subsequent quarters and fiscal year 99/00. Third, one of
the unfortunate outcomes of accelerated downsizing is the need for remaining
staff to focus on core business as oppos,sd to Strategic Goals. In many
instances staff resources were not available to dedicate to Workplan tasks as
they were committed to core business functions. Fourth, based on the prior
factors the General Manager reserved the authority to delay projects until the
next fiscal year if circumstances warranted such delays. The 72% figure reflects
ALL tasks that were originally planned, including those approved for deferral. If
those deferred tasks are eliminated then District staff actually completed 280 of
327 remaining "non-deferred" projects. This represents an 86% completion rate.

SUBJECT: FY 1998/99 END-OF-YEAR OPERATIONAL REPORT
GENERAL MANAGER'S RECOMMENDATION
This is an information item only.
SUMMARY
The Strategic Goals Workplan and budgetary Performance Objectives are annual
planning tools designed to assist staff in reaching best-in-class status. Staff and
District-wide performance is compared to pre-set benchmark standards or
milestone targets as reflected in these tools. This comparison is designed to
show how well we have completed duties and responsibilities compared to our
expectations.
The FY 1998/99 Workplan, developed as a separate product and distributed to
the Committee at the beginning of last fiscal year, details projects, programs,
objectives and tasks designed to achieve District-wide Strategic Goals.
Milestones were identified that represented successful completion of a major
task. Completion of these task milestones was identified as important to the
success of the agency.
The budgetary performance objectives identify division-wide specific and
measurable functions that staff are expected to perform. These objectives,
detailed in the 1998/99 Budget, are indicative of major day-to-day or special
project functions. Actual performance is measured against established
benchmarks, and staff are held accountable for the results achieved.
The FAHR Committee and Board have been kept apprised of quarterly progress
regarding the workplan and performance objectives in the Financial &
Operational Reports. At the end of the fiscal year, the Finance Department
prepares a Comprehensive Annual Financial Report (CAFR) that is presented to
the FAHR Committee in November. As the CAFR replaces the financial
component of the Financial & Operational Report, a stand-alone, end-of-year
operational report is provided for the Committee's review.

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
Table I in the attached Agenda Report is a summary of the changes to financial
approval levels proposed in the Resolution. The requested changes affect the roles of
staff, the PDC Committee, and the Board with respect to approving Professional
Services Agreements (PSAs) and Public Works Contracts, including addenda and
change orders. The intent of the requested changes is to gain consistency among the
various departments with respect to approval authorities, and to provide a faster, easier
process to the Engineering staff on small PSAs and Public Works Contracts.
An analysis of the PSAs and Public Works Contracts that were approved by either staff,
the PDC Committee, or the Board from January 1998 to July 1999 was undertaken for
this report. The analysis compared the number of items that were approved by each
group under the current DOA and the proposed DOA. The results are:
Approved By: Approved By: Number of
(Existing DOA) (Proposed DOA) Projects
1. Board PDC 10
2. Board General Manager 5
3. PDC General Manager 2
1. For each item that is proposed to be approved at the PDC Committee level rather
than the Board, there is a 3-week timesavings resulting in 30-weeks of
timesavings in the past 18 months.
2. For each item that is proposed to be approved by the General Manager rather
than the Board, there is a two-month timesaving resulting in 10 months of
timesavings within the past 18 months.
3. For each item that is proposed to be approved by the General Manager rather
than the PDC Committee, there is a five-week timesaving resulting in 1 O weeks
of timesavings within the past 18 months.
The total time that could have been saved in the past 18 months with the proposed
Delegation of Authority is 80 weeks. Along with the timesavings, project costs would
have been reduced since staff support and associated costs would have been reduced
proportional to the timesavings.
For those items that are proposed to be approved by the General Manager, a
substantial amount of staff effort will be reduced since formal Agenda Reports will not
have to be prepared for presentation to the PDC Committee and Board of Directors. As
the number of capital projects increase over the next four to six years, the number of
items requiring Board action will also increase. With the proposed delegated levels of
authority, staff will be more efficient, projects will be completed on shorter schedules
and project costs will be reduced.
Page2
The reporting mechanism for all· delegated approvals under the proposed DOA remains
unchanged. Any PSA approved by the General Manager is reported on a quarterly
basis to the PDC Committee for their review and comment. Any construction contract
or change order approved by the General Manager is reported to the PDC Committee
on a monthly basis and summarized quarterly.
ALTERNATIVES
Maintain the existing Delegation of Authority levels and separate purchasing
resolutions.

GENERAL MANAGER'S RECOMMENDATION
Adopt Resolution No. OCSD 99-XX, Establishing Policies and Procedures For The
Award of Purchase Orders and Contracts; Award of Public Works Project Contracts;
Award of Professional Services Contracts; and Delegation of Authority to Implement
Said Policies and Procedures; and Repeal Resolution Nos. OCSD 98-8, OCSD 98-12,
OCSD 98-22, and OCSD 98-43.
SUMMARY
In July 1998, the Board of Directors adopted Resolution Nos. OCSD 98-8, OCSD 98-12,
OCSD 98-22, and OCSD 98-43 establishing policies and procedures for the award of
purchase orders and contracts, award of public works contracts, award of professional
services agreements, and delegation of authority to implement said policies and
procedures. Proposed Resolution OCSD 99-XX is to consolidate these previously
approved Resolutions into one compact resolution and Repeal Resolutions OCSD 98-8,
OCSD 98-12, OCSD 98-22, and OCSD 98-43.
A committee comprised of division managers was formed to review and recommend
changes to existing policies and procedures related to delegation of authority. The work
of this committee resulted in the passage of several independent Board Resolutions in
FY 1997 -98 related to delegated authority from the Board. The directives in these
resolutions ranged from contracts and purchasing to construction contract change
orders.
In conjunction with the consolidation of the Districts in July 1998, General Counsel
recommended adoption of Resolutions OCSD 98-8, OCSD 98-12, OCSD 98-22, and
OCSD 98-43 to replace these earlier Resolutions. General Counsel and the Delegation
of Authority Committee (DOA Committee) have since been asked to revisit these
resolutions and consolidate them into one compact resolution related to the entire
spectrum of delegated authority from the Board to Board Committees and staff. The
\lradonldata1'twp.dta\agendalFAHR\Fahr99\99ar\FAHRll9-57.dot
R9'1iud: ll/'2Ql98 Page 1
DOA Committee and General Counsel have collaborated and are requesting approval
of the attached resolution. Combining the four resolutions, removing inconsistencies
created within the in the original documents, and changing the levels of delegated
authority will gain consistency across the organization. The details are discussed in the
Additional Information section of this Agenda Report.
This item was reviewed by the Steering Committee in May, and referred to the PDC and
FAHR Committees. The PDC Committee reviewed and approved the recommendations
by a split vote on July 1, 1999. They will re~ive additional information at their
September meeting. This item is tentatively scheduled for the September 22, 1999
Board meeting. ·

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
Resolution OCSD 98-8 deals primarily with the award of professional service
agreements, the selection of consultants, and the ratification of construdion contract
change orders. The DOA committee compared the delegated approval levels for
professional service agreements and construction contract change orders with the
delegated approval levels for all other.service type contracts and found a disparity
across the organization. Under the Delegation of Authority Resolution, OCSD 98-12,
the General Manager is delegated up to $100,000 of authority for approval of service
contracts and purchase orders. Under Resolution OCSD 98-8, however, the General
Manager is delegated up to $50,000 for approval of professional service agreements
and construction contract change orders. Staff is requesting a change in the delegated
authority to achieve consistency with the General Manager's authority and to provide
flexibility aaoss the organization.
The increase in the General Manager's authority and the additional flexibility provided to
staff will save the District time in getting projects approved, lessen the workload
submitted to the Board and Committees, and provide more time for the Directors to
focus on the •bigger picture• projects.
Table 1 on the following page shows a summary of the existing levels of delegated
authority and the requested new levels.

Staff has had one year of experience with the small capital projects consultant
contracts. Eighteen task orders were issued under this program, saving an average of
2.5 months on each task order, compared with obtaining Board approval of a separate
contract for each project. This delegated authority has been key in alleviating a backlog
of projects that had built up over several years. At the end of the contract period, each
of the consultants was asked if they would extend this year's rates for an additional
year. All agreed to extend the contract terms for an additional year. Eliminating an
entire RFP and consultant selection process on an annual basis would save staff about
350 hours per year, or 0.17 full time equivalent staffing effort, and allow the District. to
lock in favorable consulting rates for a three year period.
In order to be effective, purchasing authority must be delegated into the organization.
Prior attempts to delineate this authority were accomplished by the use of position
classifications, i.e. Foreman. However, the various Departments and Divisions are
organized and structured differently, and these classification delegations were not
practical throughout the entire agency. Allowing each Department Head the ability to
establish separate authority levels for purchases under $10,000 will provide the
organization with the ability to manage more efficiently and effectively in the future.
ALTERNATIVES
Maintain the existing delegation of authority levels and separate purchasing resolutions.

RECITAL OF FINDINGS
TLW Draft No. 12:05/19/99:#103185

Section 1.01: Findings -Declaration of Intent.
A. California Government Code Section 54202 requires that every
local agency shall adopt policies and procedures, including bidding regulations,
governing purchases of supplies, services, and equipment, and that purchases of
supplies, services, and equipment by the local agency shall be in accordance with said
duly adopted policies.
8. California Government Code Section 54204 requires that if the
local agency is other than a city, county, or city and county, policies provided for in
Section 54202 of said Code shall be adopted by means of a written rule or regulation,
copies of which shall be available for public distribution.
C. In order to establish efficient procedures for the purchase of
supplies, services, and equipment, and the letting of public works contracts at the best
possible cost commensurate with quality and delivery needs, together with other
relevant factors, to exercise positive financial control over purchases, to clearly define
authority for the purchasing function, and to establish bidding procedures, a purchasing
system for the District, beyond what is required by said Sections of the Government
Code, is desirable and in the best public interest.
D. An effective, comprehensive organization needs an administrative
structure with support procedures that are logical, efficient, well-documented, are
understood by the organization's employees and members of the public, and that
enable timely and responsive administrative acquisition of materials, supplies, and
services. The organization should also appropriately delegate authority to those
persons and units having responsibility for these activities.
E. The Board of Directors has determined that a delegation of
authority structure provides for better training of employees which will result in improved
efficiency and effectiveness of the District's operations.
ARTICLE II
DELEGATION OF AUTHORITY
Section 2.01: Purpose and Scope. In an effort to remove barriers that
prevent District employees from performing their jobs at the highest level of efficiency, a
delegation of authority structure will appropriately train the employees, and by providing
increased responsibility and ownership, will contribute to the improved efficiency and
effectiveness of the District.

account, or the materials or supplies furnished at a lower price in the open market and
may have the work done in a manner stated in the Resolution in order to take
advantage of this lower cost.
E. Tie Bids. If two or more bids received are for the same total
amount or unit price (with quality and service being equal) and if the public interest will

SUBJECT: COMPLETION OF J. D. EDWARDS FINANCIAL INFORMATION
SYSTEM IMPLEMENTATION
GENERAL MANAGER'S RECOMMENDATION
To Bd. of Dir.
Item Number
Accept the J. D. Edwards Financial Information System and close project #5401200.
SUMMARY
Staff has implemented the following applications from the J. D. Edwards World classic
proprietary software: general ledger, accounts payable, accounts receivable and cash
receipts, fixed assets, job cost, budgeting, payroll, human resources, purchasing,
inventory and warehousing, sales order, and address book. All of the functionality
required of these applications as specified within the original request for proposals has
been provided. After further analysis of the software, the contract management
application was not implemented due to the relatively low value of benefits expected to
be received. Implementation costs to date are within the original contract award to J. D.
Edwards, IBM, and Enterprise Technologies of $1 .485 million.
Migration to the J. D. Edwards OneWorld client/server software has not been
completed. To date, approximately $152,000 has been incurred in Enterprise
Technology consulting services for OneWorld migration out of a total budget of
$163,000 with few productive benefits being obtained. These costs are primarily due to
addressing OneWorld software shortcomings and are amounts paid to Enterprise
Technology while attempting to make the software operational.
PROJECT/CONTRACT COST SUMMARY
Total Board approval for the purchase of the hardware, software and implementation of
the financial information system through IBM, J. D. Edwards, and Enterprise
Technology was $1,485,000. No additional funds are being requested with this action.

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
At the July 24, 1996 meeting, the Joint Board of Directors authorized the General
Manager to execute a contract for a new financial information system with
J. D. Edwards and approved the purchase of the hardware from the California Multiple
Awards Schedule (CMAS) for a combined amount not to exceed $1,485,000.
At the February 11, 1998 FAHR Committee Meeting, the Committee approved the
assignment of the implementation portion of the financial information system contract for
the remaining software applications consisting of fixed assets, contract management,
and inventory management, and for the conversion to the J. D. Edwards OneWorld
Gperating platform to Enterprise Technologies, because J. D. Edwards could no longer
provide ~ local client implementati0n proj,ect manager and implementation team. This
assignment was made without increasing the original $1,485,000 approved by the
Boa.i:d for the pu rchase of the hardware, software, and implementation of the financial
information system through IBM and J. D. -Edwards. To date, hardware, software, and
implementation costs have totaled $1,479,000.
Implementation of the various applications were completed as follows:

The assignment of the implementation services to Enterprise Technologies resulted in a
consulting service agreement with Enterprise Technologies, for time and materials, in
an amount not to exceed $276,000 that expired on August 1, 1999. Through July 31,
$274,383 had been expended against this service agreement, as follows:

Implementation of the Contract Management module was not completed because the
functionality of the J. D. Edwards World system was developed to meet the needs of the
private sector. The module lacked the functionality to properly monitor contracts in
accordance with the purchasing requirements of the State of California Government and
Public Contract Codes, as well as the District's internal purchasing policies. Instead,
Purchasing staff has developed a computer program within Microsoft Access that
monitors contracts, insurance, and procurement bond requirements with internal
resources.
Migration to the J. D. Edwards OneWorld client/server software has not been completed
because the software has not matured to the point that it can be installed efficiently
while retaining all of the functionality currently available in the installed World classic
software applications. To date, approximately $152,000 has been incurred in Enterprise
Technology consulting services for OneWorld migration, out of a total budget of
$163,000, with only the OneWorld Accounts Receivable module being placed into
production. These costs are primarily due to addressing OneWorld software
shortcomings and are amounts paid to Enterprise Technology for attempting to make
the software operational.
In our agreement with J. D. Edwards, we purchased the World classic software, all of
the functionality required within our original request for proposal, and the right to migrate
to the OneWorld software. At the time we negotiated the software license agreement,
J. D. Edwards was making no assurances as to functionality of the OneWorld software.
Staff recommended J. D. Edwards because of their established World product, the cost
difference to the second proposal, and the urgent need to upgrade the District's
outmoded 1979 system. We advised the Board that no governmental OneWorld
\lradonldata 1 lwp.dtalfin\21 O\crane\F AH RIF ahr99\Sept\ARJDECompletion.doc

installations were complete, and that there was some uncertainty about the ultimate
development of the project. Excerpts from the recommendation presentation are
attached.
Enterprise Technologies has submitted a proposal to complete the migration of the
Financial Suite of applications (General Ledger, Accounts Payable, Fixed Assets, Job
Cost, and Budget) to OneWorld at an estimated additional cost of $96,000. However,
this proposal is based on time and materials without any assurances that additional
funds won't be needed. No firm dollar estimate can be provided at this time for
completing the OneWorld Distribution Suite (Purchasing, Warehousing and Inventory,
and Sales Order) or the OneWorld Human Resource/Payroll Suite.
The benefits lost by not completing the migration to OneWorld include:
• The OneWorld software is more user-friendly, especially to those users outside of
the Finance Department. The OneWorld software resembles a Microsoft product
with its point and click, drop down menus, and graphical interface. The World
classic software requires IBM keyboard knowledge and the use of function keys.
• The OneWorld software provides the District with more alternatives when selecting a
hardware platform and an operating platform since the product virtually runs on any
hardware platform and will run on an Oracle operating system.
• Information within the OneWorld software can more easily be uploaded/downloaded
into Microsoft personal computer applications such as Excel and Access.
• The OneWorld Software is designed to support e-commerce and will ultimately
support web browser access. E-commerce could provide us the opportunity to pay
our vendors electronically. A web browser access would allow employees to
complete timesheets on-line that would automatically feed into the payroll module.
• Ultimately, J. D. Edwards will be discontinuing support of the World classic software
and we may be forced to implement OneWorld or a whole new financial information
software package from another vendor.
ALTERNATIVES
1) Extend the consulting services agreement with Enterprise Technologies through
December 31, 1999, to complete the implementation of the One World Financial
Suite applications for time and materials, in an amount not to exceed $96,000.
Direct staff to solicit additional consulting service proposals for the implementation of
the OneWorld Distribution Suite and Payroll/Human Resource Suite following the
completion of the OneWorld Financial Suite implementation.
2) Direct the Information Technology Department to continue to monitor the
development of the J. D. Edwards OneWorld software. At some time in the future
when the Information Technology Department believes that the software has
matured sufficiently to be implemented with few modifications, direct staff to solicit
proposals for implementation of the J. D. Edwards OneWorld software.

GENERAL MANAGER'S RECOMMENDATION
· Meeting Date To Bd. ef Dir.
09/08/99 09/22/99
Item Number
Approve Resolution No. 99-XX increasing the annual contribution to this plan.
SUMMARY
Effective January 1, 1998, the Board of Directors has approved an "Executive's Money
Purchase Pension Plan and Trust," more commonly called a 401 (a) Plan. The only
executive who is eligible to participate in this plan is the General Manager, Don
McIntyre. All amounts deposited into this plan are offset by an equal reduction of the
General Manager's salary.
'
The Internal Revenue Code has established limits for financial participation in these
plans. In this case, the maximum participation is established by the IRC as $30,000 per
calendar year. The IRC also requires the amount of participation to be expressed as a
percentage of "Participant's Compensation for the Plan Year."
Because the plan was finalized well into 1998, and because the General Manager had a
specific participation level in mind, the participation percentage was established at
7 .55% for 1998. Now that the General Manager's performance review for 1999 has
been completed, and his 1999 compensation can be determined, it is appropriate to
revise the participation percentage in order to allow the maximum participation.
The attached resolution, prepared by General Counsel, modifies the participation
percentage to reflect the request of the General Manager. Participation amounts are
offset by equal reductions in the salary of the General Manager.·

SUBJECT: CONSUL TANT AGREEMENT FOR FORMER EMPLOYEE,
GERALD JONES
GENERAL MANAGER'S RECOMMENDATION
1) Approve waiver to Human Resources Policies and Procedure Manual to
retain Gerald Jones, retired maintenance manager, as a professional consultant;
2) Approve a Professional Services Agreement with Gerald Jones in the amount
of $67.50 per hour plus travel expenses, not to exceed two years in duration.
SUMMARY
For several years, the District has been implementing programs aimed at
reinventing the way operations are managed. Gerald Jones has been a leader in
many critical areas of the reinvention effort including reconciliation of the
maintenance database with the asset and tagging information developed by the
Reinvention Automation Project, and the planning and scheduling interface with
the warehouse, purchasing, maintenance database and the financial database.
These projects are at the core of our reinvention efforts as they pertain to running
the plants at optimal efficiency. The District has completed one phase of the
reinvention program, but there are still at least two years to go until completion.
Mr. Jones has decided to retire and move to Las Vegas, however he is willing to
continue to work as a professional consultant to help us complete the reinvention
work. In Mr. Jones' proposal he would travel to the District every other week and
work a four-day workweek (a copy of his proposal is attached). He has proposed
an hourly rate of $67.50 plus travel expenses of $700 per week. Mr. Jones'
current hourly rate plus benefits is $53.85. It is essential that we maintain Mr.
Jones' involvement with the project to ensure the project's continuity and
schedule are maintained. The alternative would be to use outside consultants at
a $140 hourly rate.
This recommendation is being brought forward to the Finance and Human
Resources Committee because District policy prohibits hiring former employees
as consultants for a period of one year from the termination date (see attached
policy B80.5.2). However, the FAHR Committee on a case-by-case basis may

MEMORANDUM
TO: Bob Ooten
Director of Operations & Maintenance
FROM: Gerald Jones /J}
0 & M Maintenance Manager
SUBJECT: Reinvention Project Work Items and Proposed Rates
Bob, I have reviewed reinvention work in progress and identified the following projects
that have goals and objects associated with them for fiscal year 1999-2000. The goals
and objectives have been assigned to the project specialists and supervisory staff in the
maintenance divisions. The goals and objectives are subject to change based on
schedule changes and have been provided as an attachment to this memorandum.
The reinvention projects are an out growth of the work that was completed last fiscal
year. A list of the projects follows:
• Reconciliation of the CMMS database with the asset and tagging information
developed by the Reinvention Automation Project (J-42).
• Task analysis on assets in the CMMS database (post reconciliation)
• Activity Code and Parts List development for. Identified equipment (post task
analysis).
• O&M support for equipment tagging project to be implemented through the
Reinvention Automation Project (procedures, methods and QA-QC for project).
• Planning & Scheduling and Warehouse & Purchasing business interface
development.
• Planning & Scheduling and CMMS & Financial Information System Integration
project (continued development).
• Expansion of existing Performance Measurement and Standards reporting.
The majority of the projects listed above are in some way dependent on the
Reinvention Automation Project schedule. It is also true that O&M support and
completion of reinvention work must also stay on schedule to accommodate the work
being performed by the Reinvention Automation Project. These interdependencies can
be discussed at your convenience.
OCSD • P.O. Box 8127 • Fountain Valley, CA 9:.0728-8127 • (714) 962-2411
Page 2
August 23, 1999
Schedules and milestones for these projects can be provided as required to assist with
determining the resource requirements and the duration of each of the work efforts.
The schedules and task lists developed to date have been the basis of the attached
goals and objectives. I have assigned O&M resources to each of the projects. The
resources may have to be reallocated between the projects based on core business
and reinvention project priorities. I expect the reinvention process to be completed in
approximately three more years.
Additional resources will be required in specialty areas of the projects. I have identified
five areas that will require these resources.
• Mark Esquer will have to contribute some O&M technical support staff time to
assist me with looking at the life cycle replacement program.
• Nick Arhontes will have to provide support for flow-charting and policy and
procedure development required to complete the equipment rebuild reinvention
process.
• O&M field personnel to perform task analysis and provide raw data and task
information for activity codes and parts lists development.
• Consultant Support for formalizing the policy and procedure for the new business
practices.
• Doug Stewart and the individual that replaces me as the O&M Maintenance
Manager must work together to insure that the Reinvention Automation Project
and the O&M Reinvention efforts stay on track.
The information in this memorandum provides a general overview of the work to be
completed. After reviewing the project management requirement and the resources
available (eight project specialists) for the project I believe it will take a minimum of half
time commitment on my oart tn effectively manage the proce::s;:,.
I would recommend a four day ten hour per day work schedule. The four-day schedule
would be Monday through Thursday. I would travel to the Orange County Sanitation
District plant sight every other week or as scheduled work activities require my
presence. This schedule is consistent with the project specialists assigned to the
project and will reduce my travel expenses.
I would charge an hourly rate of $67.50 for all on site and off site hours worked. This
rate would not include trave~f:-fn~~~s:{he travel expenses for the proposed four-day
workweek are approximate!.,~~~~-/ week. -
