LEHIGH COUNTY AUTHORITY ALLENTOWN, PA 10-YEAR CAPITAL PLAN SUBURBAN DIVISION 2016-2025 SEPTEMBER 2015 LEHIGH COUNTY AUTHORITY 10-YEAR CAPITAL PLAN 2016-2025 INDEX Page Water Capital Financing Justification Department Summary Project Details 1-3 4 5-25 WasteWater Capital Financing Justification Department Summary Project Details 26-27 28 29-47 Appendix Location Maps WATER WATER 10-YEAR CAPITAL PLAN 2016 - 2025 CAPITAL FINANCING JUSTIFICATION Capital additions to the Water System are justified by using six revenue sources: user charges; assessments or distribution tapping fees; supply tapping fees; contributions-in-aid of construction; reimbursements from the wastewater funds; and grants. By capitalizing user charges and reduced operating costs, a capital additions justification can be derived. For purposes of this presentation, we have grouped developer contributions and grants as "construction contributions." Reimbursements from the wastewater fund and the City of Allentown systems are included under Operating Revenues. We have assumed revenues based on the existing water rates, with incremental net revenues (gross revenues less operating expenses) available for debt service. Under current conditions, we estimate that 70 percent of user charge revenue is available as incremental net revenue. This available amount has been capitalized to determine additional borrowing capacity. The Water Capital Plan is separated by service area with the following assumptions used to develop this report: 1. Additional customer estimates are based on past average experience and LCA records of proposed development. 2. Average annual residential usage and gross revenue at current rates. 3. New commercial/industrial revenue is derived from the additional estimated customer usage, billed at current rate schedules. 1 WATER 10-YEAR CAPITAL PLAN 2016 - 2025 CAPITAL FINANCING JUSTIFICATION PART IV – TOTAL CAPITAL FINANCING JUSTIFICATION Available for Capital Fire 20Y PV Hydrant Supply 2016 $501,635 $230,427 $175,030 2017 $799,681 $104,044 $235,270 2018 $685,696 $125,658 $197,440 2019 $597,763 $99,274 $199,455 2020 $779,482 $148,685 $239,525 2021 $742,281 $86,313 $209,015 2022 $652,604 $107,214 $208,460 2023 $735,849 $99,400 $207,980 2024 $652,604 $99,400 $208,985 2025 $739,299 $99,400 $206,985 $25,000 $6,886,894 $1,199,815 $2,088,145 $250,000 Total Tapping Fees Distrib $25,000 $25,000 $25,000 $25,000 $25,000 $25,000 $25,000 $25,000 $25,000 Constr Annual Contrib Totals $470,485 $1,402,577 $531,750 $1,695,745 $495,550 $1,529,344 $636,300 $1,557,792 $635,250 $1,827,942 $329,250 $1,391,859 $329,250 $1,322,528 $329,250 $1,397,479 $329,250 $1,315,239 $329,250 $1,399,934 $4,415,585 $14,840,438 PART V – OUTSTANDING DEBT JUSTIFICATION The following calculations indicate whether current revenues are sufficient to meet current annual debt service expenses.

Capital additions to the wastewater system in this ten-year plan will be financed from four revenue sources: user charges, operating reserves, borrowed funds and capital recovery fees. Because each wastewater system has its own rate structure, a justification is shown for each system, where applicable. The impact on pertinent wastewater funds from various projects is as follows: WESTERN LEHIGH INTERCEPTOR SYSTEM Costs of Projects S-2, S-5, S-10, S-24 and S-27 totaling $ 43,433,000 will be funded through a combination of reserves, operating revenues, borrowed funds and capital recovery fees collected from new customers. Specifically, $ 16,000,000 will be financed from operating reserves and revenues, $ 3,500,000 from capital recovery fees, with the remainder ($ 23,858,000) financed by borrowed funds (30 yr term). It is anticipated that the financing will be broken into two equal increments approximately 5 years apart. In aggregate this will produce annual debt service of $ 1,465,000, a 21.4 increase in annual cost, assuming no growth of the customer base. The increase equates to an annual charge to the typical residential customer of $ ______. It is expected that costs expended for Project S-3 (Central Lehigh County Wastewater Capacity Planning/Expansion) will be totally funded by capital recovery fees through mid 2017; thereafter funds will be borrowed to cover costs exceeding capital recovery fee revenue. When the new plant/plant improvements are in service the cost will be borne from capital recovery fees from new users and service charges to customers. LITTLE LEHIGH RELIEF INTERCEPTOR SYSTEM Projects S-15 and S-23 will be funded through borrowed funds and capital recovery fees. It is anticipated that borrowed funds in the amount of $ 2,460,000 will finance these projects. The debt will be retired through future capital recovery fees and user charges. The user charge increase is estimated to be approximately .04/1000gals or a 40% increase, beginning in 2018. COMMON RATE COLLECTOR SYSTEMS Projects S-6, S-7, S-9, S-11, S-13, S-14 and S-17 will be funded through a combination of reserves, capital recovery fees and borrowed funds for the Common Rate systems (Upper Milford, Weisenberg-Point West, Wynnewood Terrace, Heidelberg Heights and Sand Spring). Funds will be borrowed to finance Projects S-6, S-7, S-13, S-14 and S-17 in the amount of $ 6,909,000. The debt will be retired from Operating Revenues and Capital Recovery Fees. This represents a rate increase of approximately 60.4% to current customers. Project S-13 will be constructed only if intervening land along the route is developed to justify the cost of the project. It is assumed that approximately 60% of the project cost will be funded using new Capital recovery fees which will reduce the impact on existing customers. The project will also eliminate 26 the need for the Sand Spring wastewater treatment plant and should result in operational cost savings. LCA WASTEWATER PLANT Ongoing Revenues are expected to finance the ongoing capital improvements (S-22) to the plant. Project S-26 will be funded through borrowed funds, but energy savings will result in an estimated 10 to 12 year payback period. Any additional costs will be borne by users of the system. OTHER PROJECTS S-25 LYNN TOWNSHIP WTP EXPANSION Potential system growth is the driver for this project but if the housing market remains sluggish, expansion will be deferred until needed. Also, the removal of system I/I may further delay this effort. Project costs will be funded from current reserves and borrowed funds. The borrowed funds will be repaid from Capital recovery fees and supplemental user charges, yet to be determined. Assuming only user charge increases fund the debt a 73% increase would result. S-16 ARCADIA WEST This project will be funded from current reserves. 27 28 GRAND TOTAL Pending Authorization Interceptor Access Easement Acquisitions Wastewater Facility Condition Assessments Western Weisenberg Wastewater Treatment Plant Improvements Heidelberg Heights Infiltration & Inflow Investigation & Remediation Program Park Pump Station Force Main Upgrade LCA WTP- Combined Heat and Power System Spring Creek Pump Station Upgrades Subtotal Central Lehigh Valley Wastewater Capacity Planning & Expansion Wynnewood Terrace Wastewater Treatment Plant Remediation & Replacement Sand Spring Wastewater Treatment Plant Remediation & Replacement Jordan Creek Wastewater System Park Pump Station Renovations & Improvements Signatory I & I Investigation/Remediation Program Lynn Twp.

Location: 3. Description: Planning for additional treatment capacity for WLI service area and construction of selected alternative. This project is needed for future wastewater treatment capacity and covers either expanding the KIWWTP from 40 to 44 mgd or converting the LCA WTP the pretreatment plant to a full treatment facility, which includes discharge pumping and piping. This project includes planning, design and construction. Cost estimates are based on the 2011 Malcolm Pirnie report "Updated Cost summary for Wastewater Capacity." The costs were updated to reflect new DRBC and DEP requirements. 4. Justification (need, function, selection of time, specific relationship to any long-term work program): The City Klines Island WWTP does not currently have enough available wastewater treatment allocation to meet LCA's future needs. To meet wastewater treatment needs, the best available options must be investigated. Although some recovery of capacity will occur through Inflow/Infiltration removal, there is no wastewater allocation remaining for sale. Updating the 537 Plan is the primary cost factor for planning. Capital costs will be recovered through a combination of increased user fees and capital recovery fees to new customer. 5.

Proposal Title: Preparer: ELH 8/13/15 Date: Lynn Township Wastewater Treatment Plant Upgrades & Expansion SD-S-25 Lynn Twp. 2. Location: 3. Description: The Project is envisioned to be executed in two phases: Phase 1 includes influent chamber modifications, mechanical screen, a valve chamber with meter and chemical feed system that is expected to be completed in 2016. Phase 2 is the expansion of the WWTP capacity from 80,000 GPD to 160,000 GPD. Gannett Fleming, who was also the LTSA engineer prior to the LCA acquisition of the system, will submit for the necessary permits from DEP. 4. Justification (need, function, selection of time, specific relationship to any long-term work program): The Phase 1 upgrades will improve the WWTP operation. The Phase 2 WWTP expansion addressed in the Township's Act 537 Plan is driven by projected growth and system infiltration and inflow (I/I) issues. Timing of the WWTP expansion will be dependent upon I/I remediation efforts and growth. 5. Status of Proposal: X Preliminary Estimate Plans and Specs Completed Other (Specify) 6.

Proposal Title: FJL 8/19/15 Date: LCA WTP- Combined Heat and Power System SD-S-26 Preparer: LCA WTP 2. Location: 3. Description: The project includes the evaluation of options and the construction of an on-site Combined Heat and Power (CHP) system w/ bio-gas storage which will utilize the bio-gas to generate electrical power and provide heat to the digesters. The project estimate assumes a traditional design/bid /construct LCA owned & operated CHP system. However, alternative options similar to the PPL contract i n the Allentown Division were LCA provides the bio-gas, and PPL invests the capital, and owns and operates the system then sells power to LCA at a reduced cost are also being explored 4. Justification (need, function, selection of time, specific relationship to any long-term work program): The project will utilize the biogas produced at the WTP to generate on-site approximately 75% of the WTP electrical needs. In addition, heat will be recovered from the generator and used to heat the digesters. 5. Status of Proposal: X Preliminary Estimate Plans and Specs Completed Other (Specify) 6.

Description: The Project includes installing two new motor operators with SCADA control for the 30" weir slide gates. The work includes installation of local, remote and SCADA control. Currently these side gates are manually operated. 4. Justification (need, function, selection of time, specific relationship to any long-term work program): Automating the side gates will allow remote operation to maximize the pump station capabilities prior to and during wet weather events. Under the current situation, we can not access the station when the area floods. 5. Status of Proposal: X Preliminary Estimate Plans and Specs Completed Other (Specify) 6.
