SUBJECT:
COMBINATION SEWER CLEANING TRUCK REFURBISHMENT
GENERAL MANAGER'S RECOMMENDATION
RECOMMENDATION:
A. Approve a Sole Source Purchase Order to Haaker Equipment Company to refurbish one
Combination Sewer Cleaning Truck for a total amount not to exceed $402,186, not including
applicable sales tax and freight; and
B. Approve a contingency of $60,328 (15%).
BACKGROUND
Orange County Sanitation District (OC San)owns and operates four Combination Sewer Cleaning
trucks within its fleet.The trucks maintain the collection systems by cleaning sewer pipes and pump
station wet wells,and by responding to emergencies such as sewer spills,using a combination of
vacuum and water-jetting technology.
The Combination Sewer Cleaning trucks consist of specialized cleaning equipment with controls,
hydraulic systems,and a large tank debris body mounted on a chassis.These trucks service more
than 380 miles of regional pipes and 15 outlying pump stations,three reliable units are required to
complete the annual volume of work and comply with the Sewer System Management Plan (SSMP)
as required by the State Water Resources Control Board (SWRCB).
RELEVANT STANDARDS
·Participate in local, state, and national cooperative purchasing programs
·Maintain a proactive asset management program
·Ensure the public’s money is wisely spent
PROBLEM
The truck identified for refurbishment is experiencing increasing electrical,mechanical,and hydraulic
failures due to age and corrosion.Continued repairs are becoming less effective and cost-efficient,
making refurbishment or replacement the only viable long-term options.

File #:2026-5009 Agenda Date:7/22/2026 Agenda Item No:5.
PROPOSED SOLUTION
Refurbish the truck through the Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM)-authorized service
representative to restore the equipment to near-new condition,improve reliability,and maximize its
remaining useful life at a lower cost than replacement.
TIMING CONCERNS
Delaying the refurbishment would increase the risk of equipment downtime and reduce OC San’s
ability to maintain adequate fleet availability of Combination Sewer Cleaning trucks to support
scheduled cleaning, emergency response and regulatory compliance activities.
RAMIFICATIONS OF NOT TAKING ACTION
Continued deterioration of the truck could result in extended downtime,increased reliance on rental
equipment,higher maintenance costs,and reduced fleet availability.This could impair OC San’s
ability to perform scheduled cleaning activities and respond effectively to collection system
emergencies.
PRIOR COMMITTEE/BOARD ACTIONS
August 2017 -Approved Vactor as an Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM)Sole Source for
industrial cleaning truck rental and repairs.
ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
OC San’s Board of Directors approved Vactor as the OEM sole source provider under Board M.O.9
(B)on August 23,2017.Haaker Equipment Company is Vactor’s sole authorized dealer for Vactor in
Southern California.By using the OEM-authorized dealer and OEM parts,OC San received a
discount of $37,730.
The truck profiled for refurbishment is seven years old and has a reliably operating chassis.The
installed equipment on the chassis will be restored to near-new condition,allowing OC San to
operate the unit well into its profiled 15-year life cycle.Refurbishment is significantly less costly than
replacing the vehicle and allows OC San to extend the useful life of an existing asset with a
serviceable chassis.
With newly adopted and imposed regulations (CARB Advanced Clean Fleets)affecting heavy-duty
vehicles,the unit would need to be replaced as an alternative-fueled/electric vehicle at a substantially
higher cost in a market with supply chain delays.Keeping this unit in OC San’s fleet ensures the
reliability of critical equipment for maintaining the collection system.
A 15%contingency is recommended to address any additional repairs or replacement components
identified during the refurbishment process.

SUBJECT:
GAS COMPRESSOR INTERCOOLERS CRITICAL SPARES
GENERAL MANAGER'S RECOMMENDATION
RECOMMENDATION:
A. Approve a Sole Source Purchase Order to NEAC Compressor Service USA, Inc., for the
procurement of two spare intercoolers for digester gas compressors in an amount not to
exceed $246,754, not including applicable sales tax and freight; and
B. Approve a contingency of $24,675 (10%).
BACKGROUND
The Orange County Sanitation District (OC San)operates six gas compressors between Plant Nos.1
and 2 to increase the compression of methane gas generated during the anaerobic digestion
process.The compressed gas is transferred to the Central Generation facilities,where it fuels the
engine-generator units to produce electricity for both treatment plants.
The intercoolers are integral to maintaining equipment reliability and the continued operation of the
gas compressors.
NEAC Compressor Service USA,Inc.(NEAC)is the Board of Directors approved original equipment
manufacturer (OEM)representative and the sole authorized distributor of compressor equipment and
replacement parts.As the sole authorized source for these OEM intercoolers,NEAC ensures
compliance with manufacturer specifications and compatibility with the existing compressor systems.
RELEVANT STANDARDS
·Protect OC San assets
·24/7/365 treatment plant reliability
·Maintain a proactive asset management program
PROBLEM
Due to the corrosive gases processed and their environments,the gas compressors intercoolers are
susceptible to corrosion,resulting in reduced performance and reliability over time.ExistingOrange County Sanitation District Printed on 7/13/2026Page 1 of 3

File #:2026-5010 Agenda Date:7/22/2026 Agenda Item No:6.
susceptible to corrosion,resulting in reduced performance and reliability over time.Existing
intercoolers are showing early signs of corrosion and performance degradation.OC San currently
has no spare intercoolers in inventory,and replacement units require a minimum lead time of 22
weeks.In the event of failure,the affected compressor could remain out of service for an extended
period, increasing the risk of process disruptions and reduced plant reliability.
PROPOSED SOLUTION
Approve the purchase of two OEM intercoolers from NEAC to maintain gas compressor reliability,
support planned compressor overhauls,and minimize downtime associated with equipment failure or
maintenance activities.
TIMING CONCERNS
Timely procurement of the spare intercoolers is necessary to support planned digester gas
compressor overhauls.Due to the lead time associated with these specialized OEM components,
delays in procurement may affect equipment availability, overhaul scheduling, and plant reliability.
RAMIFICATIONS OF NOT TAKING ACTION
Failure to maintain an adequate inventory of critical spare parts could result in extended gas
compressor downtime,reducing the availability of digester gas compression and impacting electrical
power generation for both treatment plants.Prolonged equipment outages may also adversely affect
plant operations and OC San’s ability to maintain compliance with operational and regulatory permit
requirements.
PRIOR COMMITTEE/BOARD ACTIONS
May 2020 -Approved Penn Process Compressors (vendor NEAC Compressor Service USA)as an
Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM) Sole Source provider for pistons and parts.
ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
NEAC is the Board of Directors approved OEM representative and the sole authorized distributor for
equipment and replacement components.

ON-CALL CONDITION ASSESSMENT PROGRAM SUPPORT SERVICES,SPECIFICATION NO.S
-2026-720BD
GENERAL MANAGER'S RECOMMENDATION
RECOMMENDATION:
A. Approve a Services Contract with Jamison Engineering Contractors, Inc. to provide on-call
condition assessment program support services, Specification No. S-2026-720BD, for the
period of August 1, 2026, through June 30, 2027, for a total amount not to exceed $1,114,638
with four (4) one-year renewal options;
B. Approve an annual increase not to exceed 3.5% of the previous year’s amount; and
C. Approve an annual contingency not to exceed 10% of the annual contract amount for all
renewal periods.
BACKGROUND
Orange County Sanitation District (OC San)utilizes contractor services to support the performance of
critical equipment and facility condition assessments.Condition assessments are a key component
of OC San’s Asset Management Program as they provide vital information related to the current
status of critical equipment,structures,and facilities throughout both reclamation plants and the
collection system.This information is utilized to determine remaining useful life and impacts the
planning and execution of maintenance efforts and capital projects.
Condition assessments often occur in challenging locations.These locations may include confined
spaces,areas that require heavy cleaning or grit removal,spaces that require labor or equipment to
access (i.e.an area secured by a hatch or gate),and areas that can only be feasibly inspected via
methods or technology not readily available to staff.Utilizing a contractor to support these efforts
provides effective execution in a safe, reliable manner.
In addition,during the performance of a condition assessment,minor issues may be encountered
that require repair.Enabling the performance of incidental repairs at the time of the assessment
prevents these issues from worsening,minimizes operational impacts,and prevents duplicative
efforts necessary to access and prepare the area to perform the work.

RELEVANT STANDARDS
·Protect OC San assets
·Maintain a proactive asset management program
·24/7/365 treatment plant reliability
PROBLEM
The current on-call contractor support services contract expires on October 31,2026.Without a new
contract in place,performance of planned assessments cannot be executed efficiently,and the asset
management program will be impacted.
PROPOSED SOLUTION
Approve a Services Contract with Jamison Engineering Contractors,Inc.to provide on-call contractor
support services for OC San’s condition assessment program.
TIMING CONCERNS
The current contract will expire on October 31,2026.Having a new on-call contractor support
services contract in place prior to the current contract’s expiration will ensure that planned condition
assessments are not impacted.
RAMIFICATIONS OF NOT TAKING ACTION
If no action is taken,planned condition assessments will be delayed,impacting the effectiveness of
the asset management program.Separate procurements for support services would be required on
a case-by-case basis; this is less efficient and requires more resources to manage and execute.

necessary disbursements in addition to any other relief to which the prevailing party may be

to seek remedies available to it for any subsequent breach.

III. BACKGROUND, PROJECT DESCRIPTION, AND PROJECT ELEMENTS
A. BACKGROUND
In other industries, corrosion engineering and corrosion control design, as it
relates to pipelines, process piping, and storage and treatment facilities, have
experienced different levels of implementation depending on the risk of failure
and consequence of failure. Hazardous materials such as fuel oil and natural
gas have a mandate from the United States Department of Transportation
(DOT), as implemented by the California Public Utilities Commission (CPUC),
calling for corrosion monitoring and assessment on a regular basis. As a result,
these industries have proactive corrosion control programs and in-house
corrosion departments.
Corrosion engineering in the water and wastewater industries varies by
municipality. Generally, economic and environmental factors have been the
motivation for corrosion control, ranging from fix it as it leaks (reactive) to
proactive programs of inspection/assessment followed by coatings, linings, and
external cathodic protection. In the 1980s, East Bay Municipal Utility District
demonstrated that investment into a proactive corrosion control and monitoring
program resulted in savings of $15 to every $1 allocated to corrosion control.
OC San has constructed several new facilities for expansion since the first
facilities began operation in 1954. Excavating facilities for repair or
replacement due to corrosion requires an enormous effort and high cost.
Regulations have been changing infrastructure management. In response to
these factors, OC San has elected to support a proactive maintenance
program. One (1) element of this proactive approach is to conduct internal
assessments of piping and associated facilities to determine their current
condition and use this information to make recommendations for their future
maintenance and operation.
B. GENERAL PROJECT DESCRIPTION
The purpose of this contract is to provide OC San with on-call contractor
support services so that OC San can carry out assessments of selected
facilities, structures, pipelines, and other assets to evaluate their current
condition. In addition, perform maintenance repairs as directed by OC San.
The shutdowns, flow diversions, assessments, and all other tasks will be
scheduled by OC San personnel.
The level of Contractor support will vary for each structure or asset to be
assessed, depending upon the specific facility and the planned level of
EXHIBIT A 5 of 13 Specification No. S-2026-720BD
assessment that is either desired or is practical. In all instances, the
assessments will be directed by OC San personnel and not by the Contractor.
The Contractor shall provide the required support for each assessment task as
determined on a case-by-case basis. All subcontractors shall be approved by
OC San prior to performing any services under this contract.
The level of contractor support for incidental repairs will be dependent upon the
specific task. In all instances, the repairs will be directed by OC San personnel
and not by the Contractor.
For each task, OC San will prepare a “Request for Assessment
Support/Incidental Repairs” that includes a scope of work, schedule, work
duration, and a not-to-exceed amount for the services to be provided by the
Contractor.
Upon OC San’s request, the Contractor shall provide input into or prepare a
work plan or means and methods plan to optimize the assessment/incidental
repair process. This may involve preliminary meetings and job walks with OC
San staff to finalize the support requirements to perform the required corrosion
assessments.
The Contractor shall provide the following services:
• Confined space entry support for permit-required confined spaces, including
but not limited to provision of SCBA/SAR equipment, rescue equipment
(e.g., davits, winches, harnesses, tripods, SRLs), rescue team, ventilation
equipment, communication equipment, and atmospheric monitoring
equipment.
• Provision of 3,000 psi water-jetting equipment with up to 300 feet of
associated hoses and trained operators to adequately water jet as needed
before CCTV inspection and physical assessment by OC San.
• Provision of submersible or grade-mounted pumps of appropriate rating and
capacity to dewater the identified structures for internal Corrosion
assessment by OC San. This will include installation and removal of all
required bypass piping and associated fittings.
• Debris and rag removal using vacuum excavation equipment, like a Vactor
truck or other approved equipment, prior to physical or CCTV assessments.
• Provision of CCTV services and required support in compliance with OC
San standards.
• Provision of a trailer-mounted welding machine.
• Provision of as-needed incidental repairs.
• Provision of concrete rebar locating, core drilling equipment, and drill bits
for core sampling.

REDHILL RELIEF SEWER RELOCATION AT STATE ROUTE 55, PROJECT NO. FE18-13
GENERAL MANAGER'S RECOMMENDATION
RECOMMENDATION:
Approve the Second Amendment to Utility Agreement No.OCSD-1005,between the Orange County
Sanitation District and the Orange County Transportation Authority,for final reimbursement amount of
$4,996,443 for Project No.FE18-13,Redhill Relief Sewer Relocation at State Route 55,in the City of
Santa Ana.
BACKGROUND
The Orange County Transportation Authority (OCTA)is currently widening State Route 55 (SR-55)
between Interstate 5 and Interstate 405.The Orange County Sanitation District (OC San)owns a
sewer crossing beneath SR-55 immediately south of Warner Avenue in the City of Santa Ana.
OC San executed Project No.FE18-13,Redhill Relief Sewer Relocation at State Route 55,to extend
the required protective casing for the sewer and relocated a manhole out of the widened right of way.
OCTA first agreed to reimburse OC San for the cost of this work in a March 2020 Utility Agreement
between the agencies.
RELEVANT STANDARDS
·Maintain collaborative and cooperative relationships with regulators,stakeholders,and
neighboring communities
·Protect OC San assets
PROBLEM
In November 2022,OCTA paused the mobilization of OC San’s contractor due to Southern California
Edison’s (SCE’s)design and construction procurement delays to relocate their interfering electrical
utility line.SCE completed their construction,allowing OC San’s contractor to mobilize after July
2024.A few days after mobilizing in October 2024,OC San’s contractor discovered two utilities that
were in direct conflict with the new sewer alignment.One was a Caltrans electrical line that was
relocated quickly upon discovery and the second consisted of a Verizon fiber communication cable
that had to be relocated.Both were not anticipated to be in conflict based on existing utility

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
Utility Agreement No.OCSD-1005 cites Section 703 of the Streets and Highways Code declaring OC
San’s Redhill Relief Sewer Relocation at State Route 55 project qualifies for full reimbursement at
OCTA’s expense.The agreement obligates OC San to submit a final bill to OCTA within 360 days of
the completion of the relocation for the remaining balance of OC San’s relocation costs.
CEQA
The Caltrans/OCTA SR-55 Improvement Project includes the relocation and protection of the Redhill
Relief Sewer in their Initial Study/Mitigated Negative Declaration/Environmental Assessment.
Unrelated to the Caltrans/OCTA Improvement Project is an OC San repair project,which is exempt

FROM:Robert Thompson, General Manager
Originator: Mike Dorman, Director of Engineering
SUBJECT:
SUPPLEMENTAL ENGINEERING SERVICES, CONTRACT NO. PSA2026-001
GENERAL MANAGER'S RECOMMENDATION
RECOMMENDATION:
A. Approve Professional Services Agreements to provide Supplemental Engineering Services,
Contract No. PSA2026-001, for a three-year period with two one-year renewal options
effective October 1, 2026, for a combined total amount not to exceed $55,800,000, initially
allocated as follows:
·AECOM Technical Services, Inc. - $27,900,000
·Jacobs Project Management Co. - $27,900,000; and
B. Authorize the General Manager to transfer funds between the two Professional Services
Agreements, as needed, to align contract budgets with actual workload distribution, with no
increase to the total Board-authorized amount.
BACKGROUND
Orange County Sanitation District (OC San)delivers a Capital Improvement Program (CIP)and
complex repair projects that require project management,project engineering,resident engineering,
inspection, construction support, and specialized technical services.
Since 2002,OC San has used Supplemental Engineering Services (SES)agreements to support CIP
and small project delivery.Typical SES roles include project managers,project engineers,electrical
engineers,resident engineers,and inspection staff.The largest need is for construction support
roles,including resident engineers and inspectors.OC San also uses SES for specialty roles that
are not maintained by staff, such as structural engineering and specialized rehabilitation work.
In April 2022,the Board approved SES agreements with AECOM Technical Services,Inc.and
Jacobs Project Management Co.,for a three-year period with two one-year renewal options.In
December 2025,the Board authorized the General Manager to transfer funds between those
agreements to balance contract budgets through April 2027 with no increase to the total Board-
authorized amount.
In 2025,OC San completed an Engineering Department Staffing Plan in response to the FY 2025-26
Orange County Sanitation District Printed on 7/13/2026Page 1 of 4

File #:2026-5013 Agenda Date:7/22/2026 Agenda Item No:9.
In 2025,OC San completed an Engineering Department Staffing Plan in response to the FY 2025-26
General Manager’s Work Plan goal to minimize SES,improve succession planning,and streamline
the project delivery process.The plan shifts long-term support positions from supplemental contract
staffing to OC San full-time positions over a four-year period through the normal budget process.
During the transition period between October 1,2026 and April 30,2027 both SES contracts will be
effective. The new contracts provide for new subconsultants.
RELEVANT STANDARDS
·Comply with California Government Code Section 4526 to engage the best qualified firm “on
the basis of demonstrated competence and qualifications”and “negotiate fair and reasonable
fees”
·Ensure the public’s money is wisely spent
·Sustain 1, 5, and 20-year planning horizons
PROBLEM
OC San’s staffing requirements for the CIP workload exceed the Engineering Department’s current
and future staff capacity.Although the Engineering Department Staffing Plan will reduce reliance on
SES over time,OC San still needs supplemental resources to maintain project delivery,provide long-
term construction support,address workload peaks,fill temporary vacancies,and provide specialty
expertise not maintained by staff.
OC San also needs flexibility to manage the distribution of work between the two selected firms.
Assignment volume will vary based on project needs,staff availability,and each firm’s ability to
provide qualified resources.
PROPOSED SOLUTION
Approve two Professional Services Agreements to provide Supplemental Engineering Services and
authorize the General Manager to transfer funds between the agreements,as needed,without
increasing the total Board-authorized amount.
When OC San identifies a project or specialty support need,the two firms will be requested to
propose qualified staff.OC San will select the most appropriate resource or team for each
assignment and either authorize the staff to fill the staff role or negotiate the budget and schedule for
the task.
The General Manager’s authority to transfer funds between the two agreements will allow OC San to
balance contract capacity based on actual utilization and the availability of qualified staff from each
firm. This authority will not increase the total Board-authorized amount.
Staff will continue to provide quarterly reports to the Board of Directors on the utilization of the SES
contracts through Engineering’s Contracts Performance Report.

File #:2026-5013 Agenda Date:7/22/2026 Agenda Item No:9.
TIMING CONCERNS
Awarding these agreements in July 2026 will help to retain existing SES staffing as the existing
agreements expire.Delaying approval could create resource gaps while new OC San positions are
phased in and the CIP continues.
RAMIFICATIONS OF NOT TAKING ACTION
Without these supplemental engineering resources,OC San may need to delay projects or
separately procure specialty services as needs arise,resulting in project delays and additional
administrative costs.

To the fullest extent permitted by law, CONSULTANT shall indemnify, defend (at CONSULTANT’s sole cost and expense and with legal counsel approved by OC SAN, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld), protect and hold harmless OC SAN
and all of OC SAN’s officers, directors, employees, consultants, and agents (collectively the “Indemnified Parties”), from and against any and all claims, damages, liabilities, causes of action, suits, arbitration awards, losses, judgments, fines, penalties, costs and expenses (including, without limitation, attorneys’ fees, disbursements and court costs, and all other professional, expert or CONSULTANT’s fees and costs and OC SAN’s general and administrative expenses; individually, a “Claim”; collectively, “Claims”) which may arise from or are in any manner related, directly or indirectly, to any work performed, or any operations, activities, or services provided by CONSULTANT in carrying out its obligations under this Agreement to the extent of the negligent, recklessness and/or willful misconduct of CONSULTANT, its principals, officers, agents, employees, CONSULTANT’s suppliers, consultants, Subconsultants, subcontractors,
and/or anyone employed directly or indirectly by any of them, regardless of any contributing negligence or strict liability of an Indemnified Party. Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing herein shall be construed to require CONSULTANT to indemnify the
Indemnified Parties from any Claim arising solely from: (A) the active negligence or willful misconduct of the Indemnified Parties; or
(B) a natural disaster or other act of God, such as an earthquake; or (C) the independent action of a third party who is neither one of the Indemnified Parties nor the CONSULTANT, nor its principal, officer, agent, employee, nor CONSULTANT’s supplier, CONSULTANT, Subconsultant, subcontractor, nor anyone employed directly or indirectly by any of them. CONSULTANT shall, to the fullest extent permitted by law, indemnify the Indemnified Parties, from Claims arising from more than one cause if any such cause taken alone would otherwise result in the obligation to indemnify hereunder.
CONSULTANT’s liability for indemnification hereunder is in addition to any liability CONSULTANT may have to OC SAN for a breach by CONSULTANT of any of the provisions of this Agreement. Under no circumstances shall the insurance requirements
and limits set forth in this Agreement be construed to limit CONSULTANT’s indemnification obligation or other liability hereunder. The terms of this Agreement are contractual and the result of negotiation between the parties hereto. Accordingly, any
rule of construction of contracts (including, without limitation, California Civil Code Section 1654) that ambiguities are to be construed against the drafting Party, shall not be employed in the interpretation of this Agreement.
CONSULTANT is indemnified in OC SAN’s standard construction contracts. This indemnification is in the General Conditions which are attached to OC SAN’s standard construction contracts when these contracts are issued.
PSA PSA2026-001 Revised 050625 Supplemental Engineering Services AECOM Technical Services, Inc. Page 17 of 20
26. DUTY TO DEFEND
The duty to defend hereunder is wholly independent of and separate from the duty to
indemnify and such duty to defend shall exist regardless of any ultimate liability of CONSULTANT and shall be consistent with Civil Code section 2782.8. Such defense obligation shall arise immediately upon presentation of a Claim by any person if, without
regard to the merit of the Claim, such Claim could potentially result in an obligation to indemnify one or more Indemnified Parties, and upon written notice of such Claim being provided to CONSULTANT. Payment to CONSULTANT by any Indemnified Party or the payment or advance of defense costs by any Indemnified Party shall not be a condition precedent to enforcing such Indemnified Party’s rights to indemnification hereunder. In the event a final judgment, arbitration, award, order, settlement, or other final resolution expressly determines that the claim did not arise out of, pertain to, or relate to the negligence, recklessness, or willful misconduct of the CONSULTANT, to any extent, then OC SAN will reimburse CONSULTANT for the reasonable costs of defending the Indemnified Parties against such claims.
CONSULTANT’s indemnification obligation hereunder shall survive the expiration or earlier termination of this Agreement until such time as action against the Indemnified Parties for such matter indemnified hereunder is fully and finally barred by the applicable
statute of limitations.

PSA PSA2026-001 Revised 050625 Supplemental Engineering Services AECOM Technical Services, Inc. Page 18 of 20
Notwithstanding the final Agreement acceptance, the CONSULTANT will not be relieved of its obligations hereunder, nor will the CONSULTANT be relieved of its obligations to
complete any portions of the work, the non-completion of which were not disclosed to OC SAN (regardless of whether such nondisclosures were fraudulent, negligent, or otherwise), and the CONSULTANT shall remain obligated under all those provisions of
the Agreement which expressly or by their nature extend beyond and survive final Agreement Acceptance. Any failure by OC SAN to reject the work or to reject the CONSULTANT’s request for final Agreement Acceptance as set forth above shall not be deemed to be acceptance of the work by OC SAN for any purpose nor imply acceptance of, or Agreement with, the CONSULTANT’s request for final Agreement Acceptance.
29. PROHIBITION
During the term of this Agreement, CONSULTANT and its Subconsultants may not propose on any engineering or construction-related projects advertised by or on behalf of OC SAN if such work presents actual or perceived conflict of interest with

25. INDEMNIFICATION
To the fullest extent permitted by law, CONSULTANT shall indemnify, defend (at
CONSULTANT’s sole cost and expense and with legal counsel approved by OC SAN, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld), protect and hold harmless OC SAN and all of OC SAN’s officers, directors, employees, consultants, and agents (collectively the “Indemnified Parties”), from and against any and all claims, damages, liabilities, causes of action, suits, arbitration awards, losses, judgments, fines, penalties, costs and expenses (including, without limitation, attorneys’ fees, disbursements and court costs, and all other professional, expert or CONSULTANT’s fees and costs and OC SAN’s general and administrative expenses; individually, a “Claim”; collectively, “Claims”) which may arise from or are in any manner related, directly or indirectly, to any work performed, or any operations, activities, or services provided by CONSULTANT in carrying out its obligations under this Agreement to the extent of the negligent, recklessness and/or willful misconduct of CONSULTANT, its principals, officers, agents, employees, CONSULTANT’s suppliers, consultants, Subconsultants, subcontractors, and/or anyone employed directly or indirectly by any of them, regardless of any contributing negligence or strict liability of an Indemnified
Party. Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing herein shall be construed to require CONSULTANT to indemnify the Indemnified Parties from any Claim arising solely from: (A) the active negligence or willful misconduct of the Indemnified Parties; or (B) a natural disaster or other act of God, such as an earthquake; or (C) the independent action of a third party who is neither one of the Indemnified Parties nor the CONSULTANT, nor its principal, officer, agent, employee, nor CONSULTANT’s supplier, CONSULTANT, Subconsultant, subcontractor, nor anyone employed directly or indirectly by any of them. CONSULTANT shall, to the fullest extent permitted by law, indemnify the Indemnified
Parties, from Claims arising from more than one cause if any such cause taken alone would otherwise result in the obligation to indemnify hereunder.
PSA PSA2026-001 Revised 050625 Supplemental Engineering Services Jacobs Project Management Co. Page 17 of 20
CONSULTANT’s liability for indemnification hereunder is in addition to any liability CONSULTANT may have to OC SAN for a breach by CONSULTANT of any of the
provisions of this Agreement. Under no circumstances shall the insurance requirements and limits set forth in this Agreement be construed to limit CONSULTANT’s indemnification obligation or other liability hereunder. The terms of this Agreement are
contractual and the result of negotiation between the parties hereto. Accordingly, any rule of construction of contracts (including, without limitation, California Civil Code Section 1654) that ambiguities are to be construed against the drafting Party, shall not be employed in the interpretation of this Agreement.
CONSULTANT is indemnified in OC SAN’s standard construction contracts. This indemnification is in the General Conditions which are attached to OC SAN’s standard construction contracts when these contracts are issued.
26. DUTY TO DEFEND
The duty to defend hereunder is wholly independent of and separate from the duty to indemnify and such duty to defend shall exist regardless of any ultimate liability of CONSULTANT and shall be consistent with Civil Code section 2782.8. Such defense
obligation shall arise immediately upon presentation of a Claim by any person if, without regard to the merit of the Claim, such Claim could potentially result in an obligation to indemnify one or more Indemnified Parties, and upon written notice of such Claim being
provided to CONSULTANT. Payment to CONSULTANT by any Indemnified Party or the payment or advance of defense costs by any Indemnified Party shall not be a condition precedent to enforcing such Indemnified Party’s rights to indemnification hereunder. In
the event a final judgment, arbitration, award, order, settlement, or other final resolution expressly determines that the claim did not arise out of, pertain to, or relate to the negligence, recklessness, or willful misconduct of the CONSULTANT, to any extent, then OC SAN will reimburse CONSULTANT for the reasonable costs of defending the Indemnified Parties against such claims. CONSULTANT’s indemnification obligation hereunder shall survive the expiration or earlier termination of this Agreement until such time as action against the Indemnified
Parties for such matter indemnified hereunder is fully and finally barred by the applicable statute of limitations.
27. COMPLIANCE WITH OC SAN POLICIES AND PROCEDURES
CONSULTANT shall comply with all OC SAN policies and procedures, including, but not limited to, the Contractor Safety Standards, as applicable, and Human Resources Policies, all as may be amended from time to time.

Agreement, OC SAN shall give the CONSULTANT written notice that the Agreement will be closed out. CONSULTANT shall submit all outstanding billings, work submittals, deliverables, reports or similarly related documents as required under the Agreement
within thirty (30) days of receipt of notice of Agreement closeout.

of the Agreement and will either: i. Give the CONSULTANT a final Agreement Acceptance: or

CONSULTANT shall be required to provide adequate resources to fully support any administrative closeout efforts identified in the Agreement. Such support must be provided within the timeframe requested by OC SAN. Notwithstanding the final Agreement acceptance, the CONSULTANT will not be relieved of its obligations hereunder, nor will the CONSULTANT be relieved of its obligations to complete any portions of the work, the non-completion of which were not disclosed to
OC SAN (regardless of whether such nondisclosures were fraudulent, negligent, or otherwise), and the CONSULTANT shall remain obligated under all those provisions of the Agreement which expressly or by their nature extend beyond and survive final
Agreement Acceptance. Any failure by OC SAN to reject the work or to reject the CONSULTANT’s request for
final Agreement Acceptance as set forth above shall not be deemed to be acceptance of the work by OC SAN for any purpose nor imply acceptance of, or Agreement with, the CONSULTANT’s request for final Agreement Acceptance.
29. PROHIBITION
During the term of this Agreement, CONSULTANT and its Subconsultants may not propose on any engineering or construction-related projects advertised by or on behalf of OC SAN if such work presents actual or perceived conflict of interest with CONSULTANT’s assignments with OC SAN.
CONSULTANT and its Subconsultants shall promptly disclose to OC SAN when such conflict exists prior to participating in any work as advertised by OC SAN or on its behalf.
CONSULTANT and its Subconsultants acknowledge and agree that OC SAN’s
determination regarding such conflicts that may impact CONSULTANT’s and its Subconsultants’ ability to propose on the work as described herein shall be final and cannot be appealed.

I. SUMMARY
The Orange County Sanitation District (OC SAN) is a special district responsible for wastewater
conveyance and treatment for Northern and Central Orange County, California. OC SAN is a
public agency that operates one of the largest wastewater facilities in the United States of
America. OC SAN is soliciting Proposals to provide Supplemental Engineering Services to
support its engineering projects, which includes large and small capital projects and
operationally funded repair projects.
II. BACKGROUND
OC SAN has budgeted for a 10-year $3.6 billion capital improvement program, the vast majority
of which is managed by the Engineering Department. OC SAN also has an active asset
management program which includes many repair projects that, due to their complexity, are
managed by its Engineering Department.
III. PROFESSIONAL SERVICES REQUIRED
The following descriptions cover the types of professional services OC SAN will require under
this Agreement. OC SAN will determine when specific services are required. The mechanisms
for requesting, reviewing, authorizing, and terminating services under this Agreement are
documented in Attachment "A1" - Rules of Engagement. As described in that attachment,
work assignments will fall into one of the following types:
• Task Authorizations. Task Authorizations have formal Scope of Work and the
CONSULTANT submits a proposal with a fee.
• Task Directives. Task Directives are typically smaller than Task Authorizations where
OC SAN provides a scope and a not-to-exceed fee amount that will be negotiated with
the CONSULTANT.
• Program Role Assignments. In Program Role Assignments, the CONSULTANT shall
provide an appropriately qualified and experienced professional to fulfill the project role
on a portfolio of projects.
OC SAN will authorize specific tasks to be completed by the CONSULTANT and will require the
CONSULTANT to provide staff to fill designated roles on specific projects or within the

ATTACHMENT “A1”
RULES OF ENGAGEMENT
Rules of Engagement PSA2026-001
Page 1 of 4
ATTACHMENT “A1”
RULES OF ENGAGEMENT
This document describes how OC SAN may use a Supplemental Engineering Services
agreement to maintain the Engineering Project program while complying with
independent Contractor classification laws.
There are three mechanisms by which professional services can be supplied through
the Agreement:
• Task Authorizations
• Task Directives
• Program Role Assignments
These Rules of Engagement are intended to document how services are to be
requested, authorized, and managed.
Task Authorizations
When OC SAN requires a specific task completed, staff will contact each firm.
Depending on the nature of the task, OC SAN may request that each firm respond with
the proposed team, fee, and, if applicable, an approach to perform the work. Based on
these responses, OC SAN will determine which firm offers the most qualified and
appropriate team and/or approach and negotiate a Task Authorization with that firm.
Task Authorizations have a formal Scope of Work and a fixed upper limit.
Distinguishing aspects of Task Authorizations include the following:
• Requests for Task Authorization Proposal (RFTAP) require a Scope of Work
prepared by OC SAN staff.
• RFTAPs and Task Authorizations must be approved by the Director of
Engineering.
• The Scope of Work must include schedule requirements, tasks, deliverables, and
assumptions, similar in detail to a Design or Planning Study Task Order.
• Each Task Authorization must specify a firm, negotiated upper limit which may
not be exceeded. Any changes must be processed as a formal Task
Authorization Amendment before the work is performed.
• The CONSULTANT shall report incurred costs for the Task Authorization on their
monthly invoices, including total costs to date and the remaining budget.
• Time charged to Task Authorizations does not count against approved Program
Role hours.
Task Directives
Task Directives are typically smaller than Task Authorizations where OC SAN provides
a Scope of Work and a not-to-exceed fee amount that will be negotiated with the
CONSULTANT. Task Directives include the following:
Rules of Engagement PSA2026-001
Page 2 of 4
• The Scope of Work may be less detailed than what is required for a Task
Authorization.
• A schedule for completing the work should generally be specified, but it is not
always required.
• Task Directive must specify a firm negotiated upper limit which may not be
exceeded. If changes require a revision to that upper limit, it must be processed
as a formal Task Directive Amendment prior to the work being authorized and
performed.
• CONSULTANT shall report costs incurred for the Task Directive on their monthly
invoices, including total costs to date and the remaining budget.
Program Role Assignments
Program Role assignments direct the CONSULTANT to assign a qualified individual to
fill a specific role across multiple projects. For inspection staff, where assignments and
timing may vary from day to day to support the workload demand with construction
projects, the CONSULTANT shall designate a dispatcher who coordinates assignments
and schedules with OC SAN’s Inspection Supervisor. The dispatcher may be the
CONSULTANT’s Point of Contact, an assigned inspector, or another appropriate
representative.
Requirement for Program Roles:
• OC SAN will contact all firms eligible to provide professionals for the role.
• Assignment, duration, and budget:
o They are specific to one person.
o Assignments will generally be made before the specific need arises.
o Hours and costs will be tracked at the Program Role, project, and work
package level. An authorized budget will be established based on the
individual’s burdened rate and the duration of the assignment. The
individual’s location (Home Office or Site) impacts the billing overhead
rate. The burdened rate includes salary, overhead, and profit.
Reimbursable expenses, typical for travel or vehicle use, will also be
tracked.
o They are assigned for a specified duration. At the end of the specified
duration, the Program Role will either be closed or renewed.
o On-site Program Roles will be provided office space, key cards, an OC
SAN phone extension, an OC SAN email, and network access.
• Selection factors: The assignment will go to the firm that offers the professional
who is the best fit for the Program Role. Depending on the role, OC SAN may
consider:
o Relevant experience and expertise.
o Availability to begin work (for example, full-time availability if the role starts
immediately).
o On-site presence and proximity to OC SAN facilities.
o Cost-effectiveness when multiple qualified candidates are available.
Rules of Engagement PSA2026-001
Page 3 of 4
• The Engineering Manager responsible for the function must approve Program
Role assignments. Only supervisors or managers may initiate Program Role
requests.
Project assignments are made under the Program Role to direct the CONSULTANT to
assign qualified individuals to specific projects. A project assignment may cover the full
project role or a defined portion.
Standard project assignments are listed below:
• Administrative Support
• Construction Scheduling
• Electrical Engineer
• Cost Estimator
• Outreach Support
• Instrumentation and Control (I&C) Engineer
• Commissioning Coordinator
• Inspection - Civil/Mechanical
• Inspection - Electrical/I&C
• Project Engineer
• Project Manager
• Resident Engineer
• Submittals
• Project Support (structural, HVAC, constructability, etc.)
Requirements for project assignments:
• Assignments will be made from existing Program Role assignments.
• Timing and duration depend on the project schedule or other designations.
• CONSULTANT assigned to a project will work directly with OC SAN or project
team members.
• Assignment requests must specify total estimated hours.
• CONSULTANT shall identify a Technical Lead to support assigned
CONSULTANT staff.
• Project direction will come from the CONSULTANT Point of Contact or
CONSULTANT Supervision, in coordination with OC SAN Project Team and
Supervision in Engineering.
CONSULTANT Staff Supervision
CONSULTANT is responsible for supervision of its entire staff, including the following:
• Administrative Supervision (CONSULTANT staff only)
o Performance reviews
o Timecard approvals
o Work hours
• Supervision of assigned roles
Rules of Engagement PSA2026-001
Page 4 of 4
o Work prioritization
o Technical input, guidance, and direction
o Quality Control for assigned deliverables
OC SAN does not supervise CONSULTANT staff. However, OC SAN provides
direction to CONSULTANT as an Owner, including:
• Project decisions and priorities
• Design standards
• OC SAN preferences
• Financial and risk considerations
• Compliance with OC SAN Policies and Procedures
• Coordination with other OC SAN projects and activities

BACKGROUND
The Orange County Sanitation District (OC San)provides healthcare and welfare insurance benefits
(plans)to employees and eligible dependents in accordance with collective bargaining agreements,
personnel policies and adopted resolutions.
OC San’s benefit plans are renewed annually on January 1.Human Resources (HR)manages OC
San’s benefits program.OC San’s benefits broker,Alliant,evaluates market conditions,negotiates
with insurance carriers,and secures the most cost-effective coverage for participants.The planning

process starts in April and insurance contracts are finalized and signed in August.
The total cost of insurance coverage for the 2027 Plan Year will be $20,306,224,an overall increase
of $1,850,634 or 10%.By comparison,annual increases were 10.5%in 2024,4.4%in 2025,and
12.8% in 2026.
This year’s renewal costs are being driven by several industry-wide factors, including:
·Increased use of advanced medical technologies and treatment options
·Growth in specialty pharmaceuticals, including cancer therapies and GLP-1 medications
·Rising rates of chronic health conditions and obesity, resulting in greater healthcare utilization
·Increasing high-cost claims and medical inflation
Despite these market pressures,OC San continues to implement strategies to manage healthcare
costs.These efforts include participation in the Public Risk Innovation,Solutions,and Management
(PRISM)insurance risk pool,ongoing review of utilization trends,plan design changes,bundled
insurance coverages,and competitively shopping options and negotiating rate guarantees.In
response to rising medical costs,PRISM’s Board has explored and proactively examined multiple
cost-containment strategies and remains committed to monitoring evolving research,market trends,
and best practices to support long-term sustainability of member agencies’ health plans.
Since joining PRISM in 2015,OC San has benefited from favorable insurance renewal results.From
2017 through 2026,average annual renewal increases were 4.33%for Kaiser plans,4.36%for
Anthem HMO plans,and 3.52%for Anthem PPO/HDHP plans.The overall average increase for the
PRISM pool during this period was 5.64%.
Employees share in the cost of medical and dental insurance in accordance with current collective
bargaining agreements.For medical insurance coverage,employees contribute 20%of the premium
costs,with the exception of those enrolled in employee only HMO coverage who contribute 10%of
the premium cost.OC San covers the cost of all other lines of coverage including vision,basic life,
disability, EAP, HAS, and HRA.
Retirees may continue OC San medical and/or dental coverage by paying 100%of applicable
premiums.OC San incorporates the cost of this item in the insurance renewal costs,as it is paid in
advance, and reimbursed by the retiree through monthly payments.
A legacy retiree medical benefit remains in place for employees hired before July 1,1988,providing
2.5 months of OC San-paid medical insurance for each year of continuous service upon retirement.
Currently, 5 retirees receive this benefit, and no active employees are eligible to qualify in the future.

dependents. Current insurance coverage expires December 31, 2026.

B. Approve a contingency in the amount of $356,560 (10%).
BACKGROUND
Orange County Sanitation District’s (OC San)current VMware Enterprise License Agreement (ELA)
is ending in August 2026.VMware is used at OC San for server and desktop virtualization in both
Office and Industrial Control System computing environments.Virtualization is a technology that
creates virtual representations of servers,storage,networks,and other physical machines.It
provides high availability and resiliency, increases efficiency, and reduces expenses.
This purchase order contract represents a significant increase in cost over the prior period.The
VMware product was purchased by Broadcom which packaged the product differently and raised the
price for the more complete product offering.The competitors in this product space matched this
product packaging strategy.In response OC San has chosen VMware for both virtualization and
related storage management as it is still the most cost-effective solution.

Public Affairs Strategic Plan
FY 2024-2026
Introduction
The Orange County Sanitation District’s (OC San) Public Affairs Office (PAO) is responsible for managing
all internal and external communications. The PAO's main goal is to ensure messages are accurate,
transparent, and build public trust and confidence. An integrated Public Affairs Strategic Plan is
essential for effectively addressing the diverse audiences we serve.
The PAO offers services, tools, and programs to meet OC San’s communication needs. This
includes media relations, website and intranet site content, construction outreach, elected
officials and government relations, internal communications, education, outreach, and graphic
development.
The PAO has developed a Strategic Plan (Plan) for Fiscal Years 2024 - 2026. This Plan is
developed based upon the principles of OC San’s Mission of protecting public health and the
environment and will support the implementation of OC San’s Strategic Plan. This Plan offers a
vision to unify our communication efforts and focus resources to achieve the greatest impact
and greatest results.
Because much of what is planned and created by this group is based on external factors and
therefore outside of our control, flexibility and fluidity is integrated into the Plan. The PAO will
follow the guidance set forth by management and the Board of Directors to carry out OC San’s
messaging and support our member agencies.
Background Information
OC San represents 20 cities, 4 special districts, and a portion of the unincorporated County of
Orange. This area represents a community of 2.6 million people with approximately 550,000
customer accounts.
Unlike most public agencies where there is direct contact with customers, OC San’s billing
occurs through the County of Orange property tax bills. Therefore, OC San must work through
other means to communicate with the public and the rate payers.
We have a 25-member Board of Directors, and more than 650 employees within six
departments with various goals and objectives. While these groups work independently on a
variety of projects, the goal of the PAO is to provide support and messaging that is consistent
throughout the agency so that we are one voice, representing the same overall goals, and
portraying the same brand.

June 2024

There are many challenges with serving such a large and diverse customer base, however; there
are also great opportunities working through the strategies laid out in this Plan.
Public Affairs Team
The division is staffed with seven full-time employees and overseen by a supervisor and a
department head.
Jennifer Cabral, Director of Communications
Daisy Covarrubias, Public Affairs Supervisor
Rebecca Long, Senior Public Affairs Specialist
Belen Carrillo, Senior Public Affairs Specialist
Kelly Newell, Public Affairs Specialist
Public Affairs Specialist – Vacant
Gregg Deterding, Graphics Designer
Isai Carrillo, Graphics Designer
Cheryl Scott, Administrative Assistant
Each of these team members carry out specific functions to meet the communication goals and
objectives laid out in this Plan.
Situation Analysis
• OC San approved a five-year rate program in 2023. Public communication must account
for the financial impact on OC San ratepayers as decisions and proposed fees for the
next five years are developed and communicated.
• OC San must continue to attract talented and qualified personnel to fill vacancies.
Effectively communicating OC San’s culture and emphasizing the importance of
professional relationships is essential to the effectiveness and functionality of the
agency.
• OC San will have new Board leadership and is anticipating a high turnover post the
November 2024 election. Continuous engagement with the Board of Directors will be
critical for the success of this agency.

• As an essential service, OC San has continued to execute the Capital Improvement
Program (CIP) to keep the regional projects on schedule, improving and maintaining the
regional sewer system throughout the service area. In the next two fiscal years, OC San
plans to award 38 construction contracts worth a total of $340 million.
• OC San administrative staff have moved into a new Headquarters across the street from
Plant No. 1, in Fountain Valley. The new building houses over 300 staff members that
were previously spread across 10 buildings. Internal communications and engagement
will need to become a greater focal point to ensure OC San’s culture remains positive
between staff located at the Plants, and staff at Headquarters.
Mission

accurate and accessible way to the employees, the Board of Directors, our member agencies,

Dr. Yu-Li Tsai dedicated nearly 30 years of his career to OC San, becoming a renowned technical expert, visionary leader, and mentor whose impact continues to shape the organization today. His work in the lab, particularly his pioneering efforts in molecular methods like Polymerase Chain Reaction for detecting
wastewater viruses, earned him over 75 peer-reviewed publications and solidified his position as a leader in the wastewater industry.
Dr. Tsai’s most significant achievement was his instrumental role in securing the National Environmental Laboratory Accreditation Program (NELAP)
accreditation for OC San’s laboratory, making it the first municipal lab in California to achieve this distinction in 2017. His leadership and persistence led to OC San’s early adoption of the TNI Standard, elevating the lab’s quality assurance practices and ensuring the reliability and defensibility of its data.
As a mentor, Dr. Tsai inspired and supported many within OC San, guiding colleagues through technical challenges, career advancements, and professional growth. His service extended beyond OC San, influencing the next generation of environmental scientists at UC Irvine and his lasting contributions to OC San.
His dedication to scientific excellence, and commitment to the community make him so worthy to receive this honor.

TO: Orange County Sanitation District
FROM: Eric Sapirstein
DATE: June 19, 2026
SUBJECT: Washington Update
Over the past month, congressional and U.S. Environmental Protection Agency
(USEPA) activities have advanced several policy and regulatory priorities of interest
to OC San. The USEPA Administrator Lee Zeldin held a joint briefing with the
Department of Health and Human Services Secretary RFK, Jr. to outline a
commitment to address PFAS impacts on public health and the environment. In
tandem with the briefing, the USEPA published two proposed per- and
polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) rules. The first would extend the water agency
treatment compliance deadline for perfluorooctanoic acid (PFOA) and
perfluorooctane sulfonic acid (PFOS) maximum contaminant levels to 2031 from the
current 2029 deadline. The extension would be based on a review of a water
agency’s circumstances. The second rule would rescind drinking water standards
for four additional PFAS compounds and GEN-X (GenX is a trade name for a
synthetic chemical belonging to PFAS class.
In Congress, progress on the Fiscal Year 2027 appropriations occurred in the House
as the Committee on Appropriations approved USEPA’s budget, clearing the bill for
House floor action later this spring. As approved on a party line vote EPA would be
cut by approximately 20 percent below the FY 2026 enacted level.
Separately, the U.S. Government Accountability Office (GAO) testified before the
House Committee on Science, Space, and Technology on growing concerns over
cybersecurity threats to the water sector. Lastly, efforts to legislate passive
receivers liability protections for the water sector related to EPA’s designation of
PFAS under the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation, and
Liability Act (CERCLA) continues. Members on the House and Senate committees
with jurisdiction over CERCLA are attempting to develop a passive receivers liability
exemption. If successful, agencies like OC San, would be protected from frivolous
litigation from Potentially Responsible Parties that seek to shift PFAS clean-up
burdens on to the public simply because an agency had to treat the PFAS
contaminated wastewaters.

The following summarizes key issues of interest.
FY 2027 Appropriations: EPA Water Infrastructure Programs
The House Committee on Appropriations approved EPA’s FY27 spending bill. The
bill would cut EPA by approximately $1.8 billion (twenty percent) below the
enacted FY26 level. Despite the overall EPA reduction, the bill retains grant funding
flowing directly to states and tribes for water infrastructure and continues
Community Project Funding for EPA Clean Water and Drinking Water State
Revolving Fund (SRF) projects. Although the overall SRF account would be reduced
by approximately $100 million, the committee agreed to provide $2 billion for the
FY27 SRF Capitalization Grants Account. However, as part of the committee action,
the SRF would fund Community Project Requests providing $506 million for water
and $526 million wastewater projects, reducing the SRF capitalization grants by like
amounts.
Importance of Committee Action
While OC San does not rely upon the SRF, the continued funding maintains the
federal partnership to support communities meet federal water quality mandates.
For California, if the funding level is enacted, the State would receive approximately
$72 million in SRF Capitalization Grant assistance in the coming fiscal year.
EPA Preparing to Issue Biosolids Land Application Guidance and Effluent
Limitation Guidelines for Industry Related to PFAS
The Office of Water is expected to issue guidance to the States on how to set
standards to address PFAS in biosolids. The guidance reportedly will provide for a
tiered approach to set acceptable levels of PFAS that may be present in biosolids and
establish a scientifically defensible approach to managing continued land
application of biosolids while protecting public health and the environment.
The EPA is also preparing to issue long delayed effluent limitation guidelines
(ELG’s)that would require industrial dischargers to treat for PFAS before
discharging effluent. The expectation is the ELG’s would lead to source control of
PFAS and reduce the presence in wastewaters that agencies like OC San must treat.
Importance of Guidance and ELG’s
EPA’s anticipated actions are important for two reasons. First, the biosolids land
application guidance will bring clarity on how to assess risk assessments related to
land application. The original draft Risk Assessment Model that was issued in the
final two weeks of the Biden Administration received more than 24,000 public
comments. Many of the comments cited the model’s deficiencies and lack of sound
science upon which biosolids management decisions would be made. The issuance
of ELG’s will for the first time put in place standards to reduce PFAS wastewater
discharges from industry. When finalized, the ELG’s should support efforts to
reduce the burden and costs imposed on wastewater agencies to treat these sources
of PFAS.

EPA PFAS Drinking Water Rule: Proposed Rescission and Compliance Extension
On May 18, the EPA announced two proposed rules under the Safe Drinking Water
Act related to PFAS in drinking water. In taking this action, EPA stated that it would
re-examine the need to regulate the PFAS compounds once the rules are finalized.
The first proposed rule would roll back or rescind the drinking water maximum
contaminant levels (MCLs) for four PFAS compounds established under the Biden
Administration’s April 2024 National Primary Drinking Water Regulation
perfluorohexane sulfonic acid (PFHxS), perfluorononanoic acid (PFNA),
hexafluoropropylene oxide dimer acid (HFPO-DA, commonly known as GenX). As
part of this action, the agency would rescind the Hazard Mixture Index (Index)that
would have set a treatment standard for any mixture of these three PFAS and other
future chemicals. EPA stated that the prior rule failed to follow the statutory
requirements of the Safe Drinking Water Act in establishing the standards. Under
the law, the agency must regulate on a chemical by chemical basis and not the novel
Index approach that the Biden EPA relied upon to issue the MCL.
The second proposed rule upholds the existing 4 parts per trillion MCL for PFOA and
PFOS that EPA also issued under the Biden EPA. However, EPA is now proposing to
allow public water systems to apply for a two-year compliance extension, extending
the compliance deadline from 2029 to 2031.
Regardless of the court challenge EPA has scheduled a virtual public hearing on July
7, 2026, to receive verbal comments. The public hearing will address both rules.
The deadline to pre-register to provide verbal comment is July 1, 2026.
Importance of EPA Actions
EPA’s decision to rescind the standards related to additional PFAS chemicals is
important. It recognizes the agency failed to follow the law in relying upon a
“hazard mixture index” approach to set a treatment standard. If the rescission
withstands expected court challenges, it will require documented science on the
public health threats from each chemical. The other action includes reaffirming the
4 parts per trillion MCL for PFOS and PFOA, to allow for an extended compliance
date of an additional two years is important because if a water agency can make a
compelling case for additional time, it would help to address affordability impacts.
Water Sector Cybersecurity: Congressional Hearing and GAO Testimony
On May 21, 2026, the Government Accountability Office (GAO) testified before the
House Committee on Science, Space, and Technology’s Subcommittee on the
Environment at a hearing titled “Research-Driven Resilience: Applying Science to
Secure U.S. Water Systems from Cyber Threats.” GAO testified that threat actors,
including state-sponsored hackers and criminal groups, are increasingly capable of
cyberattacks on water systems, in part because operational technologies that
control valves, pumps, and other physical infrastructure are increasingly connected
to internet-enabled devices. GAO also noted that gaps in EPA’s capacity to assess
and support water sector cybersecurity needs.
GAO warned directly in its testimony that the proposed reductions to the
Department of Homeland Security’s Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security
Agency budget may limit the federal government’s ability to support water and
wastewater system resilience and cybersecurity efforts.

Importance of GAO Testimony
Water and wastewater agencies are facing growing cybersecurity requirements
under the America’s Water Infrastructure Act, while federal resources that support
threat assessment and remediation efforts face potential reductions. Recent GAO
testimony underscored the water sector’s vulnerability to cyberattacks and the
importance of maintaining robust cybersecurity defenses for critical infrastructure.
As Senator Schiff develops water sector legislation, there is an opportunity to
provide targeted funding and resources that would help utilities meet federal
requirements and strengthen cybersecurity resilience.
Copy of OC San Federal Legislative Update
July 2026
FEDERAL - 119TH CONGRESS
S. 4603
Golden Mussel Eradication and
Control Act of 2026
No Priority No Stance
Summary: S. 4603 would create a pilot program to investigate the availability
of control and eradication technologies to address the growing threats from
the Golden Mussel. A task force would be created to develop the
demonstration program that would conduct R&D into impacts upon fisheries,
water quality, and ecosystems. The task force would also support development
of control and eradication methods and plans to address impacts upon public
infrastructure among other matters. The program would be targeted to
Sacramento-San Joaquin Delta and other waters as determined by the task
force.
Introduced: 05/20/2026
Sponsor: Sen. Adam Schiff CA
Latest Actions:
05/20/2026 - Read twice and referred to the Committee on Environment and
Public Works.
05/20/2026 - Introduced in Senate
Committees: Senate Environment and Public Works Committee
Why it matters: S.4603 is the Senate approach to the investigation and mitigation efforts
to address the invasive Golden Mussel that threatens wastewater and water agencies'
infrastructure. S. 4603 is similar to H.R.3717 introduced by Harder (D-CA).
Outlook: Senate action on the bill is considered highly likely either as a stand alone
measure or incorporation into a broader Water Resources Development Act or Clean
Water/Safe Drinking Water Acts reauthorization.
Why it matters: The legislation would provide important protection to water and wastewater
agencies against third party litigation seeking to secure cost contributions for cleanups that
involve PFAS contamination. Absent an explicit liability protection provision such agencies
would be exposed to liability simply because an agency treated water and wastewater that
contained PFAS chemicals and disposed of residuals and biosolids.
Outlook: H.R. 1267 represents a placeholder bill to address the water sector's concerns
over the potential liability created by USEPA's designation of PFAS as a hazardous
substance under CERCLA. Both the House and Senate committees with jurisdiction over
CERCLA have expressed interest in addressing PFAS liability. We expect that
congressional action could later this summer on H.R. 1267 or other initiatives that would
address nuisance litigation.
FEDERAL - 119TH CONGRESS
H.R. 1285
Water Infrastructure

Outlook. H.R. 3898's provisions could be incorporated into a broader permitting reform
bill that addresses both energy and environmental permit mandates. As of this writing,
the Senate Committees on Environment and Public Works and Energy and Natural
Resources are negotiating on a bipartisan measure that would enhance prospects of
final passage of H.R. 3898's permit terms provisions.
Why it matters: S. 3738 would extend the authorization of the expiring large water recycling
projects ($500 million or greater) program. Authorized funding would be $450 million and the
program would be extended until 2032. It would also modify the the Title XVI program
increasing federal cost share to $50 million, providing $550 million funding authorization and
extending program to 2032. A new program authorizing $250 million to support
environmental and habitat restoration projects would be available to support the Great Salt
Lake and other inland lakes (priority on Central Utah Project.
Outlo0k: The legislation received a positive hearing before the Committee on Energy and

Why it matters: The legislation would increase the federal cost share cap for the WIFIA
Program from the current 80% to 90% for projects that are located in areas of extreme drought,
projects of national significance, or serves disadvantaged communities. By raising the federal
cap for these categories of eligible projects, H.R. 7845 aims to help address concerns about
Western water supplies resiliency due to prolonged drought conditions. Importantly, the bill
does not change borrowers' obligations, payment plans, or interest rates under WIFIA.
Outlook: H.R. 7845 has been referred to the Committee on Transportation and
Infrastructure. While the issue of Western water supply security continues to be a focus for
lawmakers in the 119th Congress, the committee is currently focused primarily on drafting
and advancing the Water Resources Development Act of 2026 (WRDA) later this summer.

MONTHLY LEGISLATIVE UPDATE
To: Orange County Sanitation District
From Townsend Public Affairs
Date: June 19, 2026
Subject: June 2026 Legislative Monthly Report
STATE UPDATE
May and June represent one of the most consequential periods in California’s legislative
calendar, marked by major policy deadlines and the budget process. It serves as both the
deadline for bills to pass their House of Origin and the point at which the Governor releases
the annual "May Revise" budget proposal. It also precedes the constitutional deadline of June
15th by which the Legislature must pass a state budget. Under the provisions of Proposition
25, approved by voters in 2010, Members of the Legislature permanently forfeit their daily
salaries for each day the budget remains overdue after June 15. As a result, it has become
common practice for the Legislature to approve and transmit a framework budget to the
Governor by the constitutional deadline, allowing negotiations on remaining details to continue.
The budget approved on June 15 serves as a broad fiscal framework rather than a final spending
plan. Following its passage, the Senate, Assembly, and Governor continue negotiations over
outstanding policy and fiscal issues. Once an agreement is reached, the Governor must sign
the finalized budget package before the start of the new fiscal year on July 1. Additional details
and implementation provisions are then negotiated and enacted through a series of budget
trailer bills throughout the remainder of the legislative session.
As approved, the Legislature’s budget framework is projected to remain balanced through Fiscal
Year 2027–28 and significantly reduces the state's long-term structural deficit to below $10
billion. The Legislature’s proposal includes $355.9 billion in total expenditures for Fiscal Year
2026–27, including:
• $253 billion from the General Fund.
• $36.5 billion in total reserves, including:
o $4.5 billion in the Special Fund for Economic Uncertainties (Regular Reserve);
o $15.1 billion in the Budget Stabilization Account (Rainy Day Fund);
o $9.5 billion in the Proposition 98 Rainy Day Fund; and
o $7.4 billion set aside for Fiscal Year 2027–28.
Page 2
Revenue Proposals
The Legislature’s budget framework also includes several revenue-related proposals, including:
• Fair Share from Large Corporations
o In response to federal funding reductions included in H.R. 1, the Legislature
incorporated budget language requiring the Governor to present fully developed
policy options by April 1, 2027, for holding large corporations accountable for a
greater share of their employees’ healthcare costs. These options will be
considered during the next budget cycle. Any implementation of such proposals
would require subsequent legislative action.
• A federally compliant Managed Care Organization tax; and
• An expansion of the sales tax to certain prewritten software products. The software
proposal would apply the state sales tax to many commonly used software
subscriptions, including products such as Slack and Microsoft Office suites, beginning
in January 2027.
New revenue sources remain difficult to identify in periods of economic uncertainty. Voter
sentiment appears cautious regarding additional taxation, as reflected in the number of local tax
measures rejected during the June primary election. However, unlike local tax increases, the
revenue proposals contained in the state budget do not require voter approval and may be
enacted with a two-thirds vote of each house of the Legislature.
Given the volatility of California’s revenue structure—particularly its dependence on capital
gains and stock market performance—the Legislature and Governor are also discussing
potential changes to the state’s reserve policies.
Under current law, state leaders are constitutionally required to make annual deposits into the
Budget Stabilization Account; however, the account balance may not exceed 10 percent of
General Fund tax revenues. Policymakers are now considering whether that cap should be
increased to allow the state to save more revenue during strong economic years and better
prepare for future downturns.
Because the reserve cap was established in the California Constitution, any change would
require voter approval. Legislative leaders are currently considering a ballot measure for the
November election that would authorize a higher reserve limit. To qualify such a measure for
the ballot, lawmakers face a June 25 deadline to finalize the proposal.
CAP AND INVEST
Beyond the budget, one of the most significant developments this month was major regulatory
changes to the state’s Cap-and-Invest Program. The California Air Resources Board (CARB)
proposed and adopted sweeping changes to the program, despite it having been negotiated
and codified in SB 840 last year.
In 2024, CARB determined that it had underestimated the amount of greenhouse gas reductions
required of regulated industries by approximately 118 million metric tons. Rather than requiring
emitters to achieve those additional reductions, CARB adopted regulations that effectively
provide the equivalent of 118 million metric tons in free allowances to regulated entities.
Consequently, 118 million fewer allowances will be available for auction.
Page 3
The implications of CARB’s Cap-and-Invest changes extend well beyond climate policy and
could have significant consequences for water and sanitation infrastructure funding throughout
California, including challenges for opportunities to include new funding for programs such as
innovative biosolids management, of importance of OC San.
This growing uncertainty places increased importance on other available state funding sources,
particularly Proposition 4. As traditional funding streams come under pressure, Proposition 4
may represent one of the Legislature’s most significant remaining tools to support water
infrastructure, drinking water reliability, groundwater sustainability, and climate resilience
projects. Legislative leaders are expected to begin substantive discussions regarding
Proposition 4 implementation following their return from Summer Recess in August, making the
coming months particularly important for water agencies seeking clarity on future funding
opportunities.
While details of Proposition 4 are still outstanding, the Governor has asked the State Legislature
to allocate $2.1 billion in funding, including $792 million for water-related programs and
$326 million for clean energy programs. Unlike the Governor’s initial 2025-26 proposal, in
general, the budget does not propose a multiyear spending plan for Proposition 4. The
administration instead indicates that, in response to feedback from the Legislature, it would like
to submit programmatic bond funding proposals on a year-by-year basis. Final details on
funding and funding mechanisms, though, will be decided in August.
TPA continues to advocate for funding opportunities that would benefit OC San.
KEY STATE LEGISLATION
The following summarizes key legislation that OC San has taken positions on:
OC San staff and Townsend Public Affairs monitor current and upcoming legislation. Per the
Page 4
Board approved Legislative and Regulatory Plan, OC San has submitted five position letters:
Assembly Bill 1621 (Wilson) – Planning and Zoning Law: Housing Accountability Act
Summary: AB 1621 proposes changes to the post-entitlement permitting process for housing
development projects. The bill would limit building permit plan check reviews to two rounds,
modify review timelines and related provisions, and restrict agencies from requiring changes
during inspections that deviate from previously approved plans unless specified findings are met.
Status: AB 1621 has been referred to the Assembly Housing Committee
OC San Position: Oppose Unless Amended. Page 24, section K (H) of Legislative and Regulatory
Plan
Assembly Bill 2180 (Ward) - Proposition 218 Omnibus Implementation Act
Summary: AB 2180 clarifies how local governments may demonstrate compliance with the
constitutional requirement that fees do not exceed the proportional cost of service. The bill allows
agencies to use any reasonable method to allocate service costs among parcels, supported by
existing or reasonably estimated data. The bill is sponsored by ACWA.
Status: AB 2180 has passed the Senate and will be heard next on the Senate Floor.
OC San Position: Support. Page 24, section K (h) of the Legislative and Regulatory Plan
Assembly Bill 2381 (Johnson) - Local Agency Public Construction Act: Municipal Water
Districts: Sanitation Districts: Lowest Responsible Bidder
Summary: AB 2381 amends the Local Agency Public Construction Act to update competitive
bidding requirements for municipal water districts and sanitation districts. Specifically, the
measure increases the threshold for public works contracts that must be awarded to the lowest
responsive and responsible bidder from $35,000 to $220,000.
Status: AB 2381 died in the Assembly and is not moving forward.
OC San Position: Support. Page 23 section J (e) of the Legislative and Regulatory Plan and is
consistent with previous bill concepts that TPA has discussed with OC San staff and the Board.
Assembly Bill 2777 (ESTM Committee) – State Water Pollution Control Revolving Fund
program: loans: water reuse
Summary: AB 2777, sponsored by CASA and WateReuse, this bill would provide additional
flexibility for the State Water Resources Control Board to modernize the Clean Water State
Revolving Fund (CWSRF) loan program. The bill would authorize the state board to assess fees
in place of an annual charge for financial assistance and would authorize the fees or annual
charge to be assessed at any rate as permitted by federal law.
Status: AB 2777 will be heard in the Senate Environmental Safety and Toxic Materials Committee
on June 17.
OC San Position: Support an industry coalition letter. Page 23, section D (A) and section E (c) of
Page 5
the Legislative and Regulatory Plan.
Senate Bill 1117 (Cervantes) - Accessory Dwelling Units and Junior Accessory Dwelling
Units
Summary: SB 1117 would restrict how local agencies calculate impact fees for accessory dwelling
units (ADUs) by requiring that fees for units exceeding 750 square feet be based only on the
portion of the unit above that threshold, rather than the entire unit.
Status: SB 1117 has been referred to the Assembly Local Government Committee.

FROM: Whittingham Public Affairs Advisors
DATE: June 19, 2026
SUBJECT: Local Legislative Report
Following are a few of the more notable developments and issues that have transpired in
Orange County over the last several weeks:
• The Garden Grove manufacturing facility of GKN Aerospace, a global aerospace
company that serves more than 90 percent of the world’s aircraft and engine
manufacturers, remains a focus of local news coverage.
Officials from local, regional, state, and federal agencies continue to review
facility records and operating procedures. In addition, U.S. Department of Justice
agents visited the site to collect documents and records.
The Garden Grove City Council recently held a special meeting where a GKN
representative provided an update on the situation. The representative highlighted
the company’s $3 million donation to the Orange County United Way, which
supported more than 50,000 residents from Stanton, Garden Grove, and
neighboring communities who were evacuated over Memorial Day weekend.
GKN also reaffirmed its commitment to hosting a town hall meeting once
additional information becomes available.
The United Way relief fund remained open for approximately two weeks before
closing after all available funds were distributed.
• The Orange County Board of Supervisors approved a $10.8 billion budget for fiscal
year 2026–27. The budget is approximately $300 million lower than the current
year’s budget and includes a $75 million shortfall that will be covered with one-
time funds.
County officials cited inflation and several legal settlements—including a major
settlement related to the Airport Fire—as key factors contributing to the budget
gap. To date, the County has avoided layoffs by implementing a hiring freeze and
eliminating more than 400 vacant positions.
2 | P age
• The Board of Supervisors also appointed County Chief Information Officer KC
Roestenberg to serve as Interim Chief Executive Officer, succeeding Michelle
Aguirre. Ms. Aguirre had announced her plans to retire at the end of her current
contract, which concludes June 30, after a 35-year career at the County.
• Amid growing public concern over the use of herbicides in local waterways, the
Orange County Board of Supervisors voted to permanently stop using herbicides to
control vegetation in San Juan and Trabuco Creeks.
Fifth District Supervisor Katrina Foley had proposed extending the ban to all
waterways maintained by County Public Works. However, a majority of the Board
chose to focus first on the two creeks while gathering additional information about
potential impacts in other areas.
Much of the discussion centered on glyphosate, a common ingredient in many
herbicides and pesticides. While glyphosate is widely used for weed control, it has
faced ongoing scrutiny over potential health risks, including cancer. Several Orange
County cities have already banned glyphosate and similar chemicals, although a
watchdog group has raised concerns about enforcement and alleged continued use
despite those bans.
• The 2026 Orange County Grand Jury took aim at the Board of Supervisors,
highlighting how each Supervisor receives $2.5 million annually to both manage
staffs of up to a dozen people and provide discretionary funding to organizations
and projects in their respective districts. One of the six findings in their new report,
entitled “Growing Political Appointees and Discretionary Spending within the OC
Board of Supervisors,” detailed a “…widening distance between Supervisors and
the Executive Team (which) undermines the value of the County Executive Team
and complicates coordination, slows policy implementation, and contributes to
fragmented decision-making.” Recommendations include limiting or eliminating
the discretionary fund practice, establishing criteria for Supervisorial staff
members, and realigning the Board’s engagement with the County Executive Team
and department heads on policy matters to enhance collaboration.
• The Grand Jury also released a report entitled, “PFAS (per- and polyfluoroalkyl
substances) and Public Awareness: A Closer Look at Orange County’s Drinking
Water,” which seeks to provide a clear and current understanding of the response
by water agencies countywide to PFAS. The Jurors conducted interviews with a
number of elected and appointed officials and reviewed published water quality
reports and other records from all Orange County water retailers and relevant
agencies. The recommendations of the report include enhanced public education
and awareness, and the pursuit of cost recovery from PFAS manufacturers “…to
offset treatment, monitoring, and long-term remediation costs incurred by local
water agencies and ratepayers.”
3 | P age
• Orange County’s coastline experienced record swells for several days in early June,
which contributed to dangerous conditions at beaches, including the tragic passing
of a five-year-old girl in Laguna Beach, who was swept into the ocean along with
her mother and brother, the latter two being rescued by onlookers. King tides led to
flooding in Newport Beach and other coastal areas.
• As results from the June 2 election continue to be updated as signatures are verified
and ballots are reviewed, it is expected that two of the three County Board of
Supervisors seats on the ballot will move on to a runoff election this November.
Second District Supervisor Vicente Sarmiento overwhelmingly defeated three
challengers and will retain his seat for another four years, but in the 4th Supervisorial
District, Buena Park Mayor Connor Traut and Orange County Department of
Education Board member bested two other candidates and will move on to a runoff
in November. In the 5th Supervisorial District, incumbent Katrina Foley received
several hundred more votes than Assemblymember Diane Dixon, but neither was
able to secure more than 50 percent due to a third candidate who received roughly
6 percent of the vote, forcing a runoff for this seat.
• Communities across the country are weighing the potential benefits and challenges
of data centers, prompting several Southern California cities to adopt moratoriums
on new facilities. Concerns raised during these discussions have also extended to
battery energy storage system (BESS) projects, with some opponents linking the
two and citing potential fire risks.
Despite these concerns, the Westminster Reliability Project continues to move
forward. The battery energy storage facility, which received unanimous approval
from the Westminster City Council in 2025, is currently under construction next to
the Southern California Edison Shawnee substation and is expected to begin
operations in October.
As part of our scope of work, Whittingham Public Affairs Advisors has continued to
monitor the various City Council agendas and highlighted issues and items of relevance to
OC San. We also continue to monitor activities at the South Coast Air Quality Management
District, Orange County Water District, and South Orange County Wastewater Authority.
It is a pleasure to work with you and to represent the Orange County Sanitation District.

SUBJECT:
WASTEWATER REFUNDING REVENUE OBLIGATIONS, SERIES 2026A
GENERAL MANAGER'S RECOMMENDATION
RECOMMENDATION:
Authorize the General Manager to issue fixed rate Certificates of Participation,to be referred to as
Wastewater Refunding Revenue Obligations,in an amount sufficient to refund up to $50,700,000 of
Wastewater Refunding Revenue Obligations, Series 2017A.
BACKGROUND
A portion of Orange County Sanitation District’s (OC San)debt portfolio will soon be subject to
optional redemption.As interest rates are lower than the coupons on the outstanding debt,there is a
potential opportunity to refinance the outstanding debt to reduce interest costs for OC San.The
Wastewater Refunding Revenue Obligations Series 2017A (2017 Revenue Obligations)are subject
to optional redemption on February 1,2027.Under current market conditions,a refunding of
$50,700,000 of the outstanding 2017 Revenue Obligations would generate more than 3%net present
value savings (the minimum percentage required by OC San’s debt policy).
RELEVANT STANDARDS
·Comply with OC San Debt Policy -Financial Management and Procedure 201-3-1;net present
value savings are at least three (3)percent of the par amount of the refunded bonds from
refunding outstanding bonds
PROBLEM
The 2017 Revenue Obligations are currently accruing interest at 5.00%rates,which are higher than
current market yields.The 2017 Revenue Obligations will soon be available for optional redemption
on February 1,2027.Not refunding the 2017 Revenue Obligations on,or before,such date would
result in OC San paying above market rates on the 2017 Revenue Obligations.
Orange County Sanitation District Printed on 7/13/2026Page 1 of 4
powered by Legistar™
File #:2026-5020 Agenda Date:7/22/2026 Agenda Item No:15.
PROPOSED SOLUTION
Assuming current market conditions as of June 18,2026,OC San could refund the 2017 Revenue
Obligations for present value debt service savings,net of all costs,of approximately $2 million (equal
to 4.0%of refunded principal)with a refunding amortization structured with the objective of providing
level annual debt service savings.
TIMING CONCERNS
The Tax Cuts and Jobs Act of 2017 eliminated the ability of issuers to conduct advance refunding
(more than 90 days prior to the optional redemption date)on a tax-exempt basis.Therefore,
November 4,2026,is the earliest practical closing date for a tax-exempt refinancing of the 2017
Revenue Obligations which is 89 days before the February 1,2027,optional redemption date.A
refunding after February 1,2026,would result in OC San continuing to pay interest costs above
current market yields.
RAMIFICATIONS OF NOT TAKING ACTION
Not refunding the 2017 Revenue Obligations would result in OC San continuing to pay above market
interest costs.
PRIOR COMMITTEE/BOARD ACTIONS
September 2025 -Adopted Resolution No.OC SAN 25-16 titled:“A Resolution of the Board of
Directors of the Orange County Sanitation District authorizing the execution and delivery by the
District of an Installment Purchase Agreement,a Trust Agreement,a Purchase Agreement,a
Continuing Disclosure Agreement and an Escrow Agreement in connection with the Orange County
Sanitation District Wastewater Refunding Revenue Obligations,Series 2025A,authorizing the
execution and delivery of such Revenue Obligations evidencing principal in an aggregate amount of
not to exceed $120,000,000,approving a Notice of Intention to Sell,authorizing the distribution of an
Official Notice Inviting Bids and an Official Statement in connection with the offering and sale of such
Revenue Obligations and authorizing the execution of necessary documents and related actions;and
that the Orange County Sanitation District Financing Corporation approve the documents supporting
and authorizing the Revenue Obligations in an aggregate amount not to exceed $120,000,000.”
ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
Outstanding Revenue Obligations
OC San currently has seven series of debt issuances outstanding (including the 2017 Revenue
Obligations) in the par amount of $523,835,000 as shown in the table below:

SUBJECT:
GENERAL MANAGER’S COMPENSATION AND BENEFITS
BOARD CHAIR’S RECOMMENDATION
RECOMMENDATION:
Adopt Resolution No.OC SAN 26-11 titled:“A Resolution of the Board of Directors of the Orange
County Sanitation District approving salary adjustments for the General Manager for Fiscal Year
2026/2027.”The changes consist of a salary increase and corresponding range adjustment of 4.5%,
effective in the first pay period of July 2026.
BACKGROUND
The General Manager of the Orange County Sanitation District (OC San)is employed on an At-Will
basis and serves at the pleasure of the Board of Directors.
According to Section 6 of the General Manager’s At-Will Employment Agreement,the Steering
Committee conducts an annual performance evaluation of the General Manager and reviews his
compensation and benefits.Based on this review,the Steering Committee provides a
recommendation to the Board regarding any proposed adjustments to be effective in July of the year
of the review.
The Steering Committee conducted the General Manager’s annual performance evaluation for Fiscal
Year 2025/2026 in closed session and recommends that the Board approve the proposed salary
increase and corresponding range adjustment of 4.5%.The proposed range adjustment maintains
the General Manager at approximately Step 4.4 within the salary range,allowing for salary
progression.Additionally,the proposed adjustment is intended to maintain a competitive total
compensation package that helps achieve the Board’s targeted market position at the 75th
percentile,maintains appropriate salary differentiation and supports the retention of executive
leadership.
RELEVANT STANDARDS
·Offer competitive compensation and benefits
·Maintain positive employer-employee relations
·Cultivate a highly qualified, well-trained, and diverse workforce
·Comply with OC San policy (Policy 6.1 Appraisal of Performance)and the General Manager’sOrange County Sanitation District Printed on 7/14/2026Page 1 of 4

File #:2026-5023 Agenda Date:7/22/2026 Agenda Item No:16.
·Comply with OC San policy (Policy 6.1 Appraisal of Performance)and the General Manager’s
At-Will Employment Agreement
PROBLEM
Board-approved salary increases for OC San’s Executive Management Team,Manager Group,and
represented employees became effective in July 2026.The General Manager’s salary is currently
13.6%above that of the highest-paid direct report.Without a corresponding adjustment,the salary
differential will continue to narrow,increasing salary compaction and moving the General Manager’s
compensation below the Board’s target market position.
PROPOSED SOLUTION
Approve Resolution No.OC SAN 26-11 adjusting the General Manager proposed salary increase
and corresponding range adjustment for Fiscal Year 2026/2027.The proposed salary adjustment
would help maintain an appropriate level of salary differentiation and avoid salary compaction.
TIMING CONCERNS
The Steering Committee completed the General Manager’s annual performance evaluation in
accordance with his agreement.Timely Board approval of the recommended compensation
adjustment will align the General Manager’s compensation with previously approved salary
adjustments for other employee groups,help maintain appropriate salary differentiation and achieve
retention of key staff.
RAMIFICATIONS OF NOT TAKING ACTION
Delaying action would postpone implementation of any approved adjustment,not maintain the
targeted market position at the 75th percentile,and contribute to salary compaction with direct
reports.
PRIOR COMMITTEE/BOARD ACTIONS
June 2026 -Steering Committee reviewed the General Manager’s performance evaluation in closed
session.
August 2025 -Board of Directors adopted Resolution No.OC SAN 25-14 titled:“A Resolution of the
Board of Directors of the Orange County Sanitation District approving salary and benefit adjustments
for the General Manager for Fiscal Year 2025/2026.”The changes consist of a salary increase and
corresponding salary range adjustment of 4.5%,effective the first pay period of July and changes to
a leave bank, 457(b) contribution and mileage reimbursement.

AND ROBERT C. THOMPSON, sometimes hereinafter referred to as "General
Manager" or “Mr. Thompson”; collectively referred to herein as “the Parties”
RECITALS
WHEREAS, OC San desires to continue to employ Robert C. Thompson, as General
Manager of OC San, pursuant to the terms and conditions as set forth in this Agreement; and
WHEREAS, Mr. Thompson, by virtue of his education, training and experience, is fully
qualified to fill the position of General Manager and desires to serve OC San as its General
Manager, pursuant to the terms and conditions of this Agreement; and
WHEREAS, per Resolution No. OC SAN 26-__ adopted on July [ ], 2026, OC San’s Board
of Directors has approved and authorized the Board Chair to execute this Agreement to include a
base-building salary increase of 4.5% of Mr. Thompson’s current salary.
2
WHEREAS, at the beginning of negotiations of a new Agreement, the parties agreed that
any salary changes agreed to would take effect retroactively to the first pay period of July 2026,
which is the first pay period in the current fiscal year.
NOW, THEREFORE, the Parties hereto agree as follows:
Section 1: OC San hereby continues to employ Mr. Thompson to serve as General
Manager of the Orange County Sanitation District, continuing on the effective date hereof, and
continuing until termination by either Party, as provided in this Agreement.
In that capacity, Mr. Thompson agrees to perform the functions and duties of General
Manager, the administrative head of OC San, as prescribed by the laws of the State of California,
and by the rules, regulations, decisions, and directions of the Board of Directors of OC San
(hereinafter referred to as "Board"). The General Manager's duties may involve expenditures of
time in excess of the regularly established workday or in excess of a forty-hour work week and
may also include time outside normal office hours (including attendance at Board and Committee
meetings). General Manager is classified as an exempt employee under applicable California and
federal wage and hour laws and shall not be entitled to any additional compensation for hours
worked in excess of forty in a work week.
Section 2: Mr. Thompson shall be employed in an "at-will" capacity serving at the sole
pleasure of the Board. This means that either party to this Agreement may terminate the Agreement
at any time for any reason with or without cause, and without hearing, upon 30 days' notice to the
other party. Mr. Thompson is advised and acknowledges that he has none of the termination rights
of a regular employee of OC San. Except as expressly provided herein, and as a condition of
employment, Mr. Thompson knowingly, willingly and voluntarily gives up, waives, and disclaims any
and all rights he may have, express or implied, to any notice and/or hearing before or after
termination, and/or to any continued employment with OC San after termination.
As an "at-will" employee, Mr. Thompson understands that he may be subject to termination
with or without cause at the sole discretion of the Board, notwithstanding that the other provisions
of OC San’s Personnel Policies and Procedures Manual (hereinafter referred to as "Manual") apply
to Mr. Thompson. If OC San terminates employment without cause, Mr. Thompson shall be given a
thirty (30) day Notice of Termination, and severance pay in an amount equal to six (6) months of his
then current annual base salary upon Mr. Thompson’s execution of a valid written release of legal
claims and expiration of any legally required revocation period.
3
If OC San terminates this Agreement (thereby terminating Mr. Thompson’s employment) without
cause, and Mr. Thompson executes a valid written release of legal claims, the severance pay is
considered a cash settlement related to the termination of Mr. Thompson and waiver of legal claims and
shall be fully reimbursed to OC San by Mr. Thompson if Mr. Thompson is convicted of a crime involving
an abuse of his office or position. Abuse of office or position shall have the meaning set forth in
Government Code 53243.4, as may be amended, of either (1) an abuse of public authority, including, but
not limited to, waste, fraud, and violation of the law under color of authority, or (2) a crime against public
justice, including, but, not limited to, a crime described in Title 5 (commencing with Section 67), Title 6
(commencing with Section 85), and Title 7 (commencing with Section 92) of Part 1 of the Penal Code. .
Mr. Thompson shall reimburse such severance pay to OC San no later than six (6) months after such
conviction. If Mr. Thompson terminates his employment with 30 days' notice, the Board shall have the
right to accept his resignation effective the date notice is given. Such decision to accept his resignation
earlier shall not be considered a termination without cause and shall not entitle Mr. Thompson to receive
the severance pay noted above.
Section 3: The term of this Agreement shall commence on the effective date above and
continue for an indefinite duration, until terminated by either Party pursuant to Section 2 above, or
unless terminated or amended as provided herein.
Section 4: As compensation for the services to be performed hereunder, upon the effective date
of this Agreement, OC San agrees to pay General Manager an annual base salary for services rendered
of four hundred twenty thousand six hundred eighty dollars ($420,680.00), subject to all applicable

along with deductions of applicable sums the General Manager is obligated to pay because of
participation in plans and programs described in this Agreement, and paid biweekly in accordance with
OC San’s established accounting and payroll practices at the same time and in the same manner as
other employees of OC San. No increase in salary may exceed the compensation permitted by the

compensation, including benefits, payable to General Manager, which generally becomes effective
July of the fiscal year of the review. Failure of OC San to review and evaluate the performance of
5

Retirement System ("OCERS"). OC San shall pay the required employer's contribution of Mr.

pay such expenses in advance or to reimburse the expenses, so long as the expenses are incurred
and submitted according to the criteria established by OC San’s budget and/or normal expense
reimbursement procedures pursuant to applicable policy Resolutions. To be eligible for
reimbursement, all expenses must be supported by documentation meeting OC San’s policies and
requirements and must be submitted within time limits established by OC San. Such reimbursement
shall not be considered a benefit.

devote his full time, skills, labor, and attention to said employment. At no time may General Manager
undertake outside activities consisting of consultant work, speaking engagements, writing, lecturing,
or other similar professional activities for money or other consideration without prior approval of OC
San’s Steering Committee. However, the expenditure of reasonable amount of time for educational,
charitable, or professional activities shall not be deemed a breach of this Agreement if those
activities do not conflict or materially interfere with the services required under this Agreement and
shall not require the prior written consent of the Steering Committee.
This Agreement shall not be interpreted to prohibit General Manager from making passive
personal investments or conducting private business affairs, provided those activities are not
deemed to be a conflict of interest by state law nor do they conflict or materially interfere with the
services required under this Agreement. Nothing in this At-Will Employment Agreement shall be
construed to prevent General Manager from engaging in lawful conduct outside of working hours
that does not materially interfere with General Manager’s employment.
Section 10: The Board has the sole discretion to determine whether OC San shall pay
General Manager pending an investigation into any alleged misconduct by General Manager. In the
event that OC San’s Board determines, in its sole discretion, that it is in the best interest of OC San
for General Manager to be placed on paid administrative leave pending such an investigation,
6
General Manager shall fully reimburse any salary provided for that purpose if the misconduct for
which the General Manager was under investigation results in the General Manager being convicted

conviction.

no later than six months after such conviction.
Section 12: Other employment benefits for General Manager not specifically provided for

and contains all of the covenants and agreements between the Parties with respect to that
employment in any manner whatsoever. Each Party to this Agreement acknowledges that no
representation, inducement, promise, or agreement, orally or otherwise, has been made by any
Party, or anyone acting on behalf of any Party, which is not embodied herein, and that no other
agreement, statement, or promise not contained in this Agreement or Employment shall be valid or
binding on either Party.
Section 14: Any notices to be given hereunder by either Party to the other shall be in
writing and may be transmitted by personal delivery, or by mail, registered or certified, postage
prepaid, with return receipt requested. Mailed notices shall be addressed to the Parties at the

Section 15: Any modifications of this Agreement will be effective only if set forth in writing
and signed by the Parties.
7
Section 16: The failure of either Party to insist on strict compliance with any of the terms,
covenants, or conditions of this Agreement by the other Party, shall not be deemed a waiver of
that term, covenant, or condition, nor shall any waiver or relinquishment of any right or power at
any one time or times be deemed a waiver or relinquishment of that right or power for all or any
other times.
Section 17: If any term or other provision of this At-Will Employment Agreement is
determined by a court of competent jurisdiction to be invalid, illegal, or incapable of being enforced
by any rule of law or public policy, all other terms, provisions, and conditions shall nevertheless
remain in full force and effect. Upon such determination that any term or other provision is invalid,
illegal, or incapable of being enforced, the Parties hereto shall negotiate in good faith to modify this
Agreement so as to affect the original intent of the Parties as closely as possible to the fullest extent
permitted by applicable law in an acceptable manner to the end that the transactions contemplated
hereby are fulfilled to the extent possible.
Section 18: This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the
laws of the State of California and all applicable ordinances, policies, and resolutions.
Section 19: General Manager acknowledges that he has had the opportunity and has
conducted an independent review of the financial and legal effects of this Agreement. General
Manager acknowledges that he has made an independent judgment upon the financial and legal
effects of the Agreement and has not relied upon representation of OC San, its elected or
appointed officers and officials, agents, or employees other than those expressly set forth in this

GLOSSARY OF TERMS
ACTIVATED SLUDGE PROCESS – A secondary biological wastewater treatment process where bacteria reproduce at a high rate with the introduction of excess air or oxygen and consume dissolved nutrients in the wastewater.
BENTHOS – The community of organisms, such as sea stars, worms, and shrimp, which live on, in, or near the seabed, also known as the benthic zone.
BIOCHEMICAL OXYGEN DEMAND (BOD) – The amount of oxygen used when organic matter undergoes decomposition by microorganisms. Testing for BOD is done to assess the amount of organic matter in water.
BIOGAS – A gas that is produced by the action of anaerobic bacteria on organic waste matter in a digester tank that can be used
as a fuel.
BIOSOLIDS – Biosolids are nutrient rich organic and highly treated solid materials produced by the wastewater treatment process. This high-quality product can be recycled as a soil amendment on farmland or further processed as an earth-like product for
commercial and home gardens to improve and maintain fertile soil and stimulate plant growth.
CAPITAL IMPROVEMENT PROGRAM (CIP) – Projects for repair, rehabilitation, and replacement of assets. Also includes treatment improvements, additional capacity, and projects for the support facilities.
COLIFORM BACTERIA – A group of bacteria found in the intestines of humans and other animals, but also occasionally found elsewhere, used as indicators of sewage pollution. E. coli are the most common bacteria in wastewater.
COLLECTIONS SYSTEM – In wastewater, it is the system of typically underground pipes that receive and convey sanitary wastewater or storm water.
CERTIFICATE OF PARTICIPATION (COP) – A type of financing where an investor purchases a share of the lease revenues of a program rather than the bond being secured by those revenues.
CONTAMINANTS OF POTENTIAL CONCERN (CPC) – Pharmaceuticals, hormones, and other organic wastewater contaminants.
DILUTION TO THRESHOLD (D/T) – The dilution at which the majority of people detect the odor becomes the D/T for that air sample.
GREENHOUSE GASES (GHG) – In the order of relative abundance water vapor, carbon dioxide, methane, nitrous oxide, and ozone gases that are considered the cause of global warming (“greenhouse effect”).
GROUNDWATER REPLENISHMENT SYSTEM (GWRS) – A joint water reclamation project that proactively responds to Southern California’s current and future water needs. This joint project between the Orange County Water District and OCSD provides 70
million gallons per day of drinking quality water to replenish the local groundwater supply.
LEVEL OF SERVICE (LOS) – Goals to support environmental and public expectations for performance.
N-NITROSODIMETHYLAMINE (NDMA) – A N-nitrosamine suspected cancer-causing agent. It has been found in the GWRS
process and is eliminated using hydrogen peroxide with extra ultra-violet treatment.
NATIONAL BIOSOLIDS PARTNERSHIP (NBP) – An alliance of the NACWA and WEF, with advisory support from the EPA. NBP is committed to developing and advancing environmentally sound and sustainable biosolids management practices that go beyond regulatory compliance and promote public participation to enhance the credibility of local agency biosolids programs and improved communications that lead to public acceptance.
PER- AND POLYFLUOROALKYL SUBSTANCES (PFAS) – A large group (over 6,000) of human-made compounds that are resistant to heat, water, and oil and used for a variety of applications including firefighting foam, stain and water-resistant clothing, cosmetics, and food packaging. Two PFAS compounds, perfluorooctanesulfonic acid (PFOS) and perfluorooctanoic acid (PFOA) have been the focus of increasing regulatory scrutiny in drinking water and may result in adverse health effects including developmental effects to fetuses during pregnancy, cancer, liver damage, immunosuppression, thyroid effects, and other effects.
PERFLUOROOCTANOIC ACID (PFOA) – An ingredient for several industrial applications including carpeting, upholstery, apparel, floor wax, textiles, sealants, food packaging, and cookware (Teflon).
PERFLUOROOCTANESULFONIC ACID (PFOS) – A key ingredient in Scotchgard, a fabric protector made by 3M, and used in numerous stain repellents.
PLUME – A visible or measurable concentration of discharge from a stationary source or fixed facility.
PUBLICLY OWNED TREATMENT WORKS (POTW) – A municipal wastewater treatment plant.
SANTA ANA RIVER INTERCEPTOR (SARI) LINE – A regional brine line designed to convey 30 million gallons per day of non-reclaimable wastewater from the upper Santa Ana River basin to the ocean for disposal, after treatment.
SANITARY SEWER – Separate sewer systems specifically for the carrying of domestic and industrial wastewater.
SOUTH COAST AIR QUALITY MANAGEMENT DISTRICT (SCAQMD) – Regional regulatory agency that develops plans and
regulations designed to achieve public health standards by reducing emissions from business and industry.
SECONDARY TREATMENT – Biological wastewater treatment, particularly the activated sludge process, where bacteria and other microorganisms consume dissolved nutrients in wastewater.
SLUDGE – Untreated solid material created by the treatment of wastewater.
TOTAL SUSPENDED SOLIDS (TSS) – The amount of solids floating and in suspension in wastewater.

GLOSSARY OF TERMS
TRICKLING FILTER – A biological secondary treatment process in which bacteria and other microorganisms, growing as slime on the surface of rocks or plastic media, consume nutrients in wastewater as it trickles over them.
URBAN RUNOFF – Water from city streets and domestic properties that carry pollutants into the storm drains, rivers, lakes, and oceans.
WASTEWATER – Any water that enters the sanitary sewer.
WATERSHED – A land area from which water drains to a particular water body. OCSD’s service area is in the Santa Ana River Watershed.
