COUNTY SANITATION DISTRICT NO. 15 SERVICE CHARGE REPORT FOR FISCAL YEAR 2017-18 INTRODUCTION County Sanitation District No. 15 of Los Angeles County encompasses all or portions of the cities of Arcadia, Baldwin Park, Bradbury, Duarte, El Monte, Industry, Irwindale, La Puente, Monrovia, Montebello, Monterey Park, Pasadena, Rosemead, San Gabriel, San Marino, Sierra Madre, South El Monte, Temple City, West Covina, and Whittier and unincorporated Los Angeles County. District No. 15 is one of seventeen (17) contiguous sanitation districts within the urbanized Los Angeles Basin signatory to the Amended Joint Outfall Agreement. These Districts, known as the Joint Outfall Districts, have formed a regional wastewater management system known as the Joint Outfall System. This regional system provides for operation and maintenance of large sewers, pumping plants, inland water reclamation plants, and the Joint Water Pollution Control Plant. These services are essential to protect the public health of the people served by the system. District No. 15, as a member of the Joint Outfall System, must provide a proportionate share of the revenue required to operate and maintain the facilities. The general revenue sources currently available to District No. 15 include cash on hand, capital improvement fund monies, a pro rata share of the ad valorem (property) taxes, grants, state low-interest loans, interest income, contract revenue, and rate stabilization fund monies. For fiscal year 2017-18, the proposed expenditures exceed these revenue sources and necessitate service charges and industrial wastewater surcharges to supplement the other revenue sources. The service charge will also support the District s targeted goal for reserves of six months of O&M and one year of debt service. PROPOSED SYSTEM DESCRIPTION The required supplemental revenue under the Service Charge Ordinance will be allocated among classes of developed parcels of real property on the basis of use of the sewerage system. The revenue derived from the service charge will be used for operation and maintenance and capital costs. All industrial dischargers in District No. 15 discharging more than 1.0 million gallons per year are required to file a wastewater surcharge statement as prescribed in the Wastewater Ordinance to pay their appropriate share of the costs based on their use of the sewerage system. All other users of the sewerage system, except for contractual and local government users, will pay service charges. The basic term used to define the service charge is a sewage unit. A sewage unit represents the average daily quantity of sewage flow and strength from a single-family home measured in terms of flow, chemical oxygen demand, and suspended solids. The number of sewage units (SU) per unit of measure shall be determined by the following formula: SU = A FLOW FLOW avg sfh + COD B COD avg sfh + SS C SS avg sfh where: A = The proportion of the total operation and maintenance and capital costs required for conveyance, treatment, and disposal of wastewater for the fiscal year which is attributable to flow; B = The proportion of the total operation and maintenance and capital costs required for conveyance, treatment, and disposal of wastewater for the fiscal year which is attributable to COD; DOC 4059600
C = The proportion of the total operation and maintenance and capital costs required for conveyance, treatment, and disposal of wastewater for the fiscal year which is attributable to suspended solids; FLOWsfh = Average flow of wastewater from a single-family home in gallons per day; CODsfh = Average loading of COD in the wastewater from a single-family home in pounds per day; SSsfh = Average loading of suspended solids in the wastewater from a single-family home in pounds per day; FLOWavg = Estimated flow of wastewater which will enter the sewerage system from a user in gallons per day; CODavg = Estimated loading of COD which will enter the sewerage system from a user in pounds per day; SSavg = Estimated loading of suspended solids which will enter the sewerage system from a user in pounds per day. For fiscal year 2017-18, the proportions of the total operation and maintenance and capital costs attributable to flow, chemical oxygen demand, and suspended solids have been assigned the following values: A = 0.3049 B = 0.3348 C = 0.3603 The service charge for each sewage unit is determined by dividing the total required supplemental revenue by the total number of sewage units in the District. The service charge for each parcel is determined by multiplying the service charge for each sewage unit by the number of sewage units attributable to the parcel, which in turn, is determined by the class of real property and the sewage unit formula and the flow, COD and SS loadings from Table 1, which shows the corresponding value for each class of real property in District No. 15. Based upon presently anticipated sources of funds, the service charge rate for fiscal year 2017-18 is $154 per sewage unit. Parcels with significantly lower water usage may be eligible for a reduced rate pursuant to the terms of the Master Service Charge Ordinance of District No. 15 of Los Angeles County. DESCRIPTION OF PARCELS RECEIVING SERVICES AND IDENTIFICATION OF AMOUNT OF CHARGE FOR EACH PARCEL All parcels of real property within the 2017-18 Tax Rate Areas as shown in Table 2 are receiving or benefiting from the services and facilities of District No. 5. Additionally, the parcels listed in Table 3, which do not fall within the Tax Rate Areas shown in Table 2, are receiving or benefiting from the services and facilities of District No. 15. Said parcels are more particularly described in maps prepared in accordance with Section 327, Revenue and Taxation Code, which are on file in the office of the County Assessor, which maps are hereby incorporated herein by reference. All commercial and institutional parcels assessed a service charge based on the Los Angeles County Assessor's current tax roll shall be charged on the basis of not less than one (1.0) sewage unit. No charge shall be imposed on the owner or owners of any parcels as to which the fair market value of improvements is less than $1,000 as determined on the basis of the Assessor's current tax roll. This assumption is predicated on the fact that this type of parcel would be a vacant piece of land; however, should subsequent evaluation reveal that the property is not vacant, then an appropriate service charge would be levied.
