What was challenging?
It was hard to get boys to volunteer. competing with sports, and it was hard working around some weather
in the winter months.
Changes
Many successful projects require changes from the original proposal. What significant changes did you make
and why did,you
make them (be brief)?
I had to reduce the number of boys or each work day as we simply didn't have the volunteers, had
to increase amount of work
day, and overall lengthen projected length ofproject.

Leadership
ln what ways did you demonstrate leadership?
was the primary navigator, surveyed and quality-checked the boy's wor( delegated zones for boys to work ad managed the
groups, and gave directions on how to appropriately paint.
I
What was most dÍfficult about being the leader?
Making sure all hydrants were painted to the same standard, and getting to boys to have internal mot¡vation to do their best.
What was most rewarding about being the leader?
Camaraderie, knowing I was capable of bringing the group together myself,
What did you learn about leadership, or how were your leadership skills further developed?
I learned how to more effectiely and positively get others motivated. I also learned how to give more cohesive directions.
Materials, Supplies, Tools, Other
Were there significant shortages or overages of materials, supplies, tools, and other? lf so, what effect did this have?
There was a shortage of gloves toward the end of the project, so we ha to use paper towels and be very careful. This slowed us
down quite a bit.

OF THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS OF THE AMADOR WATER AGENCY
ADOPTING THE AMADOR COUNTY LOCAL HAZARD MITTGATION PLAN
Whereas, the Amador Water Agency recognizes the threat that natural hazards
pose to people and property within our community; and
Whereas, undertaking hazard mitigation actions will reduce the potential for
harm to people and property from future hazard occurrences; and
Whereas, the U. S. Congress passed the Disaster Mitigation Act of 2000
("Disaster Mitigation Act") emphasizing the need for pre-disaster mitigation of potential
hazards;
Whereas, the Disaster Mitigation Act made available hazard mitigation grants to
state and local governments;
Whereas, an adopted Local Hazard Mitigation Plan is required as a condition of
future funding for mitigation projects under multiple FEMA pre- and post-disaster
mitigation grant programs; and
Whereas, the Amador Water Agency fully participated in the FEMA-prescribed
mitigation planning process to prepare this local hazard mitigation plan; and
Whereas, the California Office of Emergency Services and Federal Emergency
Management Agency, Region lX officials have reviewed the Amador County Local
Hazard Mitigation Plan and approved it contingent upon this official adoption of the
participating governing body;
Whereas, the Amador Water Agency desires to comply with the requirements of
the Disaster Mitigation Act and to augment its emergency planning efforts by formally
adopting the Amador County Local Hazard Mitigation Plan;
Whereas, adoption by the governing body for the Amador Water Agency
demonstrates the jurisdiction's commitment to fulfilling the mitigatíon goals and
objectives outlined in the Local Hazard Mitigation Plan.
Whereas, adoption of this legitimacies the plan and authorizes responsible
agencies to carry out their responsibilities under the plan.
Now, therefore, be
it
resolved, that the Amador Water Agency adopts the
Amador County Local Hazard Mitigation Plan as an official plan; and
Be it resolved, that the Amador Water Agency adopts the Amador County Local
Hazard Mitigation Plan by reference into the safety element of their general plan in
accordance with the requirements of AB 2140; and
Be it further resolved, the Amador Water Agency will submit this adoption
resolution to the California Office of Emergency Services and FEMA Region lX officials
to enable the plan's final approval in accordance with the requirements of the Disaster
Mitigation Act of 2000 and to establish conformance with the requirements of AB 2140.

F.3.1 History and Background
In 1959, the Amador Water Agency (AWA) was formed for the purpose of providing water and
wastewater services to the residents of Amador County. The AWA is the main water supplier
for the western portion of Amador County. The Agency has two sources of water: surface water
and groundwater. Surface water accounts for approximately 94o/o of total supply.
The primary source of consumptive water is the Mokelumne River which is supplied from
rainfall and snowmelt from the Sierra Mountain Range. This water is diverted from the Tiger
Creek afterbay or Lake Tabeaud forebay and then either it gravity flows or is pumped to AWA
treatment plants. The Agency's two main water systems are the Amador Water System (AWS)
and the Central Amador Water Project System (CAWP). The Agency supplies drinking water to
the communities of Jackson, Ione, Sutter Creek, Amador Clty, Drytown, Plymouth, the
communities along the Highway 88 corridor, and the Lake Camanche and LaMel Heights areas.
The agency is located on Ridge Road in Sutter Creek; however, their assets are located
throughout the County and beyond.

Water Sources
The North Fork of the Mokelumne River, located in the Califomia Sierua Nevada Mountains, is
the primary source for the CAWP system, the AWS, and the PG&E Tiger Creek Powerhouse
system. Water supplied from rainfall and snowmelt is stored in Tiger Creek Afterbay and
gravity feeds to the PG&E Tiger Creek Powerhouse Memcor Plant where it is treated and serves
the PG&E Conference Center. Water from the Tiger Creek Afterbay is also pumped to the
Buckhorn Water Treatment Plant where it is treated and ready for use by Agency customers in
Pine Grove, Pine Acres, Sunset Heights, Fairway Pines, Jackson Pines, Pioneer, Gayla Manor,
Ranch House Estates, Pine Park East, Toma Lane, Sierra Highlands, Silver Lake Pines,
Ridgeway Pines, Rabb Park, and Mace Meadows. Water from the Mokelumne River is also
stored in Lake Tabeaud and conveyed by pipeline to the Tanner Water Treatment Plant where it
is treated for use by the customers of Jackson, Sutter Creek, Amador City, Dr¡own, and
Plymouth. The Ione Pipeline transports raw water from the Tanner Reservoir to the Ione Water
Treatment Plant where it is treated for use by customers of Ione. The Agency's La Mel Heights
customers get their water from a pair of wells located in the La Mel Heights Subdivision and
Lake Camanche residents get their water from three wells located in the Lake Camanche area.
Recently the agency acquired the small, membrane water treatment plant form PG&E at the
Tiger Creek Power Plant.
F.3.2 Population
The population served by the Agency is in excess of 25,000.
F,4 Hazard ldentification and Summary
This section details how the risk varies across the Amador County planning area. The Agency's
planning team identified the hazards that affect the Agency and summarized their frequency of
occurrence, spatial extent, potential magnitude, and significance specific to the Amador Water
Agency (see Table F.1). In the context of the plan's planning area, there are no hazards that are
unique to the Agency.
Information on past occuriences and the likelihood of future occuffences is detailed in Section 4,
Risk Assessment, of the base plan. Additional information for high and medium significant
hazards for the Agency is included in the Vulnerability Assessment section of this Annex.

F.5 Vulnerability Assessment
The intent of this section is to assess Amador Water Agency's vulnerability separate from that of
the planning area as a whole, which has already been assessed in Section 4.3 Vulnerability
Assessment of the base plan. This vulnerability assessment provides an inventory of the
population, property, and other assets owned by the Agency and further analyzes those assets at
risk to identified hazards ranked of medium or high signifîcance (as listed in Table F.1) to the
community. For more information about how hazards affect the County as a whole, see Chapter
4 Risk Assessment in the main plan.
F.5.1 Total Assets at Risk
This section identifies Biggs's total assets at risk, including values at risk, critical facilities and
infrastructure, natural resources, and historic and cultural resources. Growth and development
trends are also presented for the community. This data is not hazard specific, but is
representative of total assets at risk within a community.
Values at Risk
Significant assets directly within the each district include a range of properties and infrastructure.
These may include District-owned property and infrastructure. An inventory of key district
assets is provided in Table F.2. Total value of these assets exceeds $24 million for the Agency.

F.5.2 Priority Hazards: Vulnerability Assessment
This section provides the vulnerability assessment, including any quantifiable loss estimates, for
those hazards identified above in Table F.l as high or medium significance hazards. Impacts of
past events and vulnerability of the Agency to specific hazards are further discussed below (see
Section 4.1 Hazard Identification for more detailed information about these hazards and their
impacts on the Amador County planning area). Methodologies for calculating loss estimates are
the same as those described in Section 4.3 of the base plan. In general, the most vulnerable

structures are those located within the floodplain, in the wildland urban interface, unreinforced
masonry buildings, and buildings built prior to the introduction of modem building codes.
An estimate of the vulnerability of the Agency to each identified hazard, in addition to the
estimate of risk of future occurrence, is provided in each of the hazard-specific sections that
follow. Vulnerability is measured in general, qualitative terms and is a summary of the potential
impact based on past occurrences, spatial extent, and damage and casualty potential. It is
categorized into the following classifications
a

:
Extremely Low-The occurrence and potential cost of damage to life and property is very
minimal to nonexistent.
Low-Minimal potential impact. The occurrence and potential cost of damage to life and
property is minimal.
Medium-Moderate potential impact. This ranking camies a moderate threat level to the
general population and/or built environment. Here the potential damage is more isolated and
less costly than a more widespread disaster.
High-Widespread potential impact. This ranking carries a high threat to the general
population and/or built environment. The potential for damage is widespread. Hazards in
this category may have occurred in the past.
Extremely High-Very widespread with catastrophic impact.

Surface water accounts for approximately 94o/o of the Agency's total water supply. Surface water
is the sole supply source for both the Amador Water System (AWS) and the Central Amador
Water Project (CAWP) and is obtained from the Mokelumne River watershed. The Agency's
main water supply is the Mokelumne River, a snow- and rain-fed river originating in the Sierra
Nevada. The Mokelumne River watershed is a relatively narrow and steep watershed located
January 2014
Annex F.8
arneé:
northeast of the Sacramento-San Joaquin Delta on the western slope of the Sierra Nevada. The
watershed, upstream of Camanche Dam, covers an area of 627 square miles and extends from
Highland Peak (elevation 10,934 feet above sea level) near the crest of the Sierra Mountains to
Camanche Reservoir (elevation 235 feú above sea level) looated in the lower western foothills
near Clements.
Annual precipitation (rainfall and snowfall) in the Mokelumne fuver Watershed, and thus river
runoff, is extremely variable in Northem California. Within a year, precipitation is highly
seasonal with most precipitation normally occurring between November and May and very little
occurring between late spring and fall. Peak flows in the Mokelumne River normally occur
during winter storms or during the spring snow-melt season from March through June. River
flows decrease to a minimum in late summer or fall.
Amador County has a varying range of temperature and precipitation. The Sierra Nevada foothill
areas experience hot, dry summers and mild winters. The higher elevations, about 5,000 feet,
experience long and severe winters accompanied by heavy snowfall. The Agency is the main
water purveyor for the western portion of Amador County. The Agency has the legal jurisdiction
to serve water throughout Amador County
Relatively high water losses have been historically attributed to the Agency's raw water ditch
conveyance and delivery system, specifically the Amador Canal and Ione Canal. The new
Amador Transmission Pipeline, completed in July 2007, replaced the majority of the conveyance
requirement for the canal by constructing a 33-inch pipeline between Lake Tabeaud and the
Tanner Reservoir. The new pipeline mitigates for water historically lost during conveyance
through the Amador Canal, lowering effective system demand and allowing the Agency to more
efficiently use its water entitlements. Also, by eliminating canal losses, the Agency has been
able to better identify residential, commercial and industrial losses.
Agency operational experience during normal, dry and multiple dry year conditions, such as
1988 to 1994, indicates that the spring runoff will continue to fill PG&E reservoirs to near
capacity. These reservoirs form the head of both the AWS and CAWP surface water diversions.
Even during unusually severe droughts, such as occurred in 197611977, and the prolonged
drought of 1988 to 1994, the PG&E storage capacity and the priority of the water rights for such
storage enables PG&E to deliver the full annual contract entitlements to the Agency. For the
limited groundwater sources utilized by the Agency, the firm yield determined at the time of well
installation indicates that the supply is consistent for normal, dry or multiple dry years. Climatic
change is not considered to be a factor in the Agency's water supply reliability.
The original La Mel Heights groundwater well has been run continuously through a variety of
seasonal and climatic conditions and has continued to produce a steady yield. The Agency added
a second well in the La Mel Heights area to provide additional supply as well as to provide
redundancy.
January 2014
Annex F.9
am€r*
The Agency has completed a Groundwater Sustainability Study for the Lake Camanche Village
service area, as directed by the State Department of Public Health (CDPH). To date, the water
Cosumnes Sub-basin that supplies Lake Camanche Village has supplied sufficient water, but it
should be noted that the Agency did not receive ownership of the system until 2001, therefore
supply data for dry and multiple dry years is not available. With the existing four (4) wells and
the requirement to be able to take the largest producing well (well 14) off line, there is limited
ability to extend services.
Earthquake
Vulnerability to Earihquake
Likelihood of Future Occurrenc*Occasional
Due to the Agency's geographic location and the areas seismic classification, service intemrption
due
to seismic activity is considered minimal and is therefore not
addressed in the Emergency
Handbook.
Landslide/Debris Flows
Vulnerability to Landslide/Debris Flow
Landslides in Amador County include a wide variety of processes resulting in downward and
outward movement of soil, rock, and vegetation. Common names for landslide types include
slumps, rockslides, debris slides, lateral spreading, debris avalanches, earth flows, and soil creep.
Although landslides are primarily associated with slopes greater than 15 percent, they can also
occur in relatively flat areas and as cut-and-fiIl failures, river bluff failures, lateral spreading
landslides, collapse of wine-waste piles, failures associated with quamies, and open-pit mines.
Landslides may be triggered by both natural- and human-caused activity. Landslide prone areas
in Amador County are shown in Figure F.2. District boundaries are approximate.

In 2005, the north side of Ridge Road near Sutter Creek failed. A landslide took out 300 feet of
water supply ditch. This supply fed 6 cities/towns. The area was affected for one week. No
towns were out of water due to the conservation, stored reserves of water and quick action. No
one was completely out of water. Primary water supply is now delivered via pipeline.
Severe Weather: Winter Storm and Freeze
Vulnerability to Severe Weather: Winter Sform and Freeze
to
excessively cold temperatures are identifìed normally on a nation-wide
assessment scale, which doesn't allow detailed results on specific structures. Secondary impacts
of freeze can affect the supporting mechanisms or systems of a community's infrastructure. For
example, when extreme cold is coupled with high winds or ice storms, power lines may be
downed, resulting in an intemrption in the transmission of that power shutting down electric
furnaces, which may lead to frozen pipes in homes and businesses, such as the Amador Water
Areas prone
Agency.
Like most weather events, periods of heavy snow occur on an annual basis in the higher
elevations of the County. Impacts to the County as a result of winter snow storms include
damage to infrastructure, utility outages, road closures, traffic accidents, and intemrption in
business and school activities. Also of concern is the impact to populations with special needs
such as the elderly and those requiring the use of medical equipment. Delays in emergency
response services can be of significant concem. Further, there are economic impacts associated
with areas prone to heavy snow. Although the eastem portion of the County is the most
vulnerable to the effects of snow, snowfall occurring in the lower elevations can create
significant issues, as they may not be as prepared for snowfall.
In 2003 a severe winter storm hit near Pioneer. Downed powff lines were widely reported.
There were road and school closures. The power outage affected the Agency's ability to run the
water treatment plant and pump stations that pump the water to the required service areas.

hazards are most pronounced in rural-urban interface areas, or where urban
development is located close to open space areas where vegetation serves as fuel. Calculation of
threat from wildfire hazard is based on a number of factors including fuel loading (vegetation),
topography, and climatic conditions such as winds, humidity and temperature, as well as the

proximity of structures and urban development to fire hazards. Generally speaking, the late
summer and early fall, when vegetation is at its driest, are the periods of greatest risk for
wildland fire. Huma¡ activity, including residential and agricultural burning, careless disposal of
cigarettes, campfires, arson and use of fireworks can all trigger fires; natural causes such as
lightning strikes may also be a cause. Figure F.3 maps the wildfire threat to the County, with the
District circled in black. Most of the district is in the moderate to high fire threat risk category,
with some areas considered very high.

In 2007 , a wildfire occurred twenty miles east of Pioneer. Roads were closed and forested areas
damaged. There was an increase in water turbidity but it was manageable even with the short
loss of power.
F.6 Gapability Assessment
Capabilities are the programs and policies currently in use to reduce hazard impacts or that could
be used to implementhazard mitigation activities. This capability assessment is divided into five
sections: regulatory mitigation capabilities, administrative and technical mitigation capabilities,
fiscal mitigation capabilities, mitigation outreach and partnerships, and other mitigation efforts.
F,6.1 Regulatory Mitigation Capabilities
Table F.4 lists regulatory mitigation capabilities, including planning and land management tools,
typically used by local jurisdictions to implementhazard mitigation activities and indicates those

Annex F.15
afne#
Urban Water Management Plan (201'll
The Urban Water Management Plan was prepared in accordance with the Urban Water
Management Act. The Act is defined by the California Water Code, Division 6, Part 2.6, and
$$10610 through $$10657. The Act became part of the California Water Code with the passage
of Assembly Bill 797 duringthe 1983-1984 regular session of the California legislature. The Act
requires urban water suppliers providing municipal water to more than 3,000 connections or
supplying more than 3,000 ac-ft of water annually to adopt and submit a plan every five years to
the Califomia Department of Water Resources (DWR).
Amador Water Agency provides potable and raw water to more than 25,000 people for
municipal, industrial, and irrigation uses as well as wastewater collection and treatment services
to meet the needs of our customers. While demands for Agency water have flattened during this
recession, the Agency intends to use this UWMP to manage the Agency's water supplies and
water demands over a range of normal and emergency conditions.
The Agency is committed to maximizing available water resources and minimizing the need to
obtain additional water supplies. The Agency has done this and will continue to do this by
utilizing water management tools and developing strategic partnerships with upstream,
downstream, and nearby agencies and districts.
Water Conservation Plan (November 2010)
Efficient use of existing water supplies is extremely important to Amador Water Agency. In
reflection of this philosophy, the Agency has developed this Conservation Plan, building upon
conservation strategies identified and documented in the Urban Water Management Plan with the
'Water
intent to further extend the Agency's water resources. Amador
Agency is committed to
maximizing available water resources and minimizing the need to obtain additional water
supplies. The Agency has done this, and will continue to do so, by utilizing water management
tools and developing strategic partnerships with upstream, downstream, and nearby agencies and
districts. Further, the Agency is committed to working with the public to facilitate regional

3190 FIRE PROTECTION AGENCY COOPERATION
3190.1 The purpose of this policy is intended to provide direction to staff
regarding the cooperative efforts with fire protection agencies which can enhance the
Water Agency's ability to maintain a large number of various fire hydrants and fire
protection facilities though out its systems, provide a means for information input for
improved fire protection facilities owned by the Water Agency, and maintain excellent
working relationships between fire protection agencies and the Water Agency.
3190.2 Water Agency staff shall provide maps showing fire hydrant and other fire
protection facilities within the Water Agency service area to fire protection agencies
responsible for those areas. These maps shall be periodically updated (but not less than
every three years) and provided to fire protection agencies as changes occur that
materíally alter fire protection equipment owned by the water Agency.
3190.3 Where fire protection agencies have adequate staffing levels and
willingness to work cooperatively with the Water Agency, an inspection program shall be
implemented for reviewing fire hydrants and other fire protection facilities owned by the
Water Agency which provides mutually benefits for both the fire protectíon agency and
the Water Agency while providing early warnings for possible needed maintenance of
facilities.
(a) The inspection program shall include forms for the fire protection agency to fill
out that include identification of the fire hydrant or other fire protection equipment (which
may include items such as backTlow devices for fire sprinkler system) along with various
items to inspect both vísually and physically. The form shall also have provisions to
capture the general condition of the equipment such as missing caps, damaged exterior
parts, access issues, identification of fire hydrant outlets, and apparent operation of
facilities. Other provisions may be included as mutually agreed by the fire protection
agency and Water Agency staff. A guídance document will be created to assist with
inspection activities.
(b) The inspection shall include the momentary activation of fire hydrants only as
a means to confirm that water flow is apparent. Specific guidelines shall be prepared
which províde parameters for this flow confirmation and include notification to Water
Agency personnel.
(c) A repair work order form shall also be included in this program which will be
used to provide information to Water Agency staff to identify problems or concerns that
was noticed during the inspection.
(d) lt is recognized that forms may need to be tailored to specific fire protection
agencies, but shall be standardized as much as possible.

Requested Action: Board authorization to implement the inflationary rate adjustment of
2.5% for fiscal year 2015-2016, as specified in AWA Board Resolution 2013-22, adopted
on June 20,2013
Background:
The system wide water rates and charges that were adopted by the Board on June 20,
2013 specified in item 5 that future adjustments to the System-Wide Water Rates and
Charges shall occur on July 1 of each year, beginning in 2014 for five consecutive years,
with the last adjustment in July of 2018. Adjustments will be made on allwater usage rates
and monthly service charges, and the temporary CAWP pumping surcharge (until
rescinded when the Gravity Supply Line is put into service) by the change in the Consumer
Price lndex (CPI-U) as calculated by the US Bureau of Labor Statístics for the San
Francisco-Oakland-San Jose area (Series CUURA422SAO) between February of the
then-current year and February of the then-previous year; provided that no annual increase
shall exceed 3o/o.In addition, in no event shall any such rate adjustment result in rates that
exceed the cost of providing water service. The monthly debt service charges shall not be
adjusted for inflation. lt is anticipated that the temporary CAWP pumping surcharge will be
rescinded prior to the implementation of this proposed inflationary adjustment.
The inflationary rate based on the above is 2.5 %. Staff recommends implementation of
the inflationary rate due to the potential loss of revenues associated with the current
drought conditions, as well as the increasing cost of operations (power, fuel, chemicals,
etc.)
Alternatives: Not implement the adjustment or implement a lesser percentage
Fiscal lmpact: Approximately $140,000

Annual Inflationary Adiustment to Water Rates for FY 15-16
Dear Gene,
As you know, in June 2013 when the Board of Directors adopted new water rates, the
Board also adopted provisions to adjust water rates annually based on changes in the
San Francisco consumer price index (SF-CPD, subject to a 3 percent cap. Debt service
charges are excluded from the inflationary adjustments.
The annual water rate adjustments are intended to help the Agency keep water rates
changes in line with inflationary changes in water system costs, and to enable the
Agency limit more comprehensive rate reviews once every 5 years. For the period from
February 2014 to February 2015, the SF-CPI (Bureau of Labor Statistics Series
CUURA422SAO) increased by 2.5 percent. Therefore, consistent with the Board of
Directors rate action in June 2013, it is recommended that the Agency increase water
rates (excluding debt service charges) by 2.5 percent effective in July 2015. Adjusted
water usage rates and monthly service charges for FY 15-16 are listed below.

While thb inflationary water rate adjustments are intended to help keep water rate
revenues in line with changes in ongoing operation and maintenance costs, the Agency's
water rates are always subject to constitutional requirements, including the requirement
that water rates not exceed the cost of providing service. The purpose of this letter is to
outline the reasons why the planned adjustments to water rates for FY 15-16 remain less
than the overall cost of providing water service.
Even with the water rate adjustment, the Agency's water rates
the full cost of providing service, for the following reasons:
will continue to be below
'
The Agency's water rates have been impacted by reduced water sales, due to
statewide drought conditions. This condition creates a financial deficit as
revenues fall more than costs (some cost will increase during drought
conditions).
'
Previously approved water rates include $160,000 annually for the capital
improvement program/ even when average planned capital program
expenditures were $640,000 annually (a shortfall of $480,000 annually from
need). Until the water rates can fully support the ongoing rehabilitation and
replacement needs of the water system, the water rates are less than the full cost
of providing service.
operating reserve is below its target level.
Previously approved water rates included $220,000 annually to rebuild the
operating reserve over an estimated -year period. The target minimum
operating reserve is equal to two months of annual operating and maintenance
costs (about $880,000). Until the operating reserve is fully funded any surplus
revenue would appropriately be used to meet this prudent financial
management target minimum reserve.
' The Agency's water system
'
Previously approved water rates did not fully reflect the costs associated with
retiree health benefits. Until the water rates fully reflect the financial obligation
associated with retiree benefit obligations the water rates are below the full cost
of providing service.

Until all the financial needs of the water system are fully covered through water rates
and other revenues the Agency's water rates will continue to be below the full cost of
providing service. The planned 2.5 percent increase in water usage rates, monthly
service charges, and the CAWP pumping surcharge are needed to help keep the water
system on track for financial stability and sufficiency.
As a reminder, customers must be informed of these changes to the water waters at least
30 days before they go into effect. This can be accomplished with a bill insert, or other
means.

Requested Action:
Discussion and direction to the General Manager to execute Amendment No.1 to the
Agreement between the Amador Water Agency and the City of Sutter Creek regarding
sewer service to properties on the southwest Ridge Road area.
Background:
ln recent discussions with representatives from the City of Sutter Creek, I became aware of
concerns that the revenue collected for a group of the City's customers was less than what
the WaterAgency is chargíng the City.
ln 2008 the Water Agency and the City entered into an agreement by where wastewater
from City customers along southwest Ridge Road would be transported through Water
Agency facilities to a point where it could flow into the City's collection system and avoid
the need for duplicative infrastructure. The agreement calculates sewer service charges on
each individual customer and totalizes those charges which is then billed to the City. An
alternative method would be to calculate the sewer service charge as if there is only one
customer which might be considered as a "wholesale" customer. This seems appropriate
as the Water Agency accepts the wastewater into the system at a single point, has no
responsible for individual service connections, and only sends one bill monthly to the City.
It is staffs recommendation to amend the agreement to treat the City as a "wholesale"
customer.
The Budget and Finance Committee met on April 8, 2015 and agreed with staffs
recommendation.
Alternatives: Leave the agreement unchanged.
Fiscal lmpact: Approximately $200 per month in reduced revenue.
