ABOUT
The Carlsbad Municipal Water District owns the Carlsbad Water Recycling Facility located next to the Encina Wastewater Authority treatment plant. The district takes treated wastewater from that plant and further treats it to the State of California Title 22 recycled water quality standards and then delivers this water to customers for irrigation and certain industrial uses. This effort reduces the amount of wastewater that would normally be released by the wastewater treatment plant into the ocean outfall, reduces dependence on imported drinking water, and provides customers with a reliable local water supply for non-potable purposes. Recycled water is not subject to state water conservation requirements. The district implements a recycled water asset management plan to minimize the total cost of owning and operating utility assets while continuing to deliver high levels of service at acceptable levels of risk.

Delivery of this water includes the operation and maintenance of the recycled water system’s four storage tanks, four pump stations, three pressure regulating stations, six pressure zones, approximately 97 miles of pipelines, 1,050 valves and 1,010 meters. The district’s cross-connection control and backflow program ensures a safe supply of drinking water by preventing cross-contamination from the recycled system into the potable system, in accordance with federal and state regulations. The district also purchases and delivers recycled water from the Vallecitos Water District’s Meadowlark Water Reclamation Facility.

• Performed inspections at all recycled water use sites to inform site operators of any modifications needed to comply with guidelines for the safe use of recycled water • Completed construction of a new 1.5-million-gallon recycled water tank • Updated the cost of service study for recycled water to forecast financial needs and inform rate adjustments
• Completed recycled tank inspections and cleaning to proactively maintain system assets on a regular five - year cycle
• Finished construction of the roof replacement project at the Carlsbad Water Recycling Facility to extend the life of system facilities
• Updated the Memorandum of Understanding with the Encina Wastewater Authority for operation of the Carlsbad Water Recycling Facility

GOALS
• Stay within the industry benchmark for water main breaks of 3.4 to 19.4 breaks per 100 miles of pipeline, per the American Water Works Association, or less
• Update the 2019 Utilities Asset Management Master Plan to verify program budgets and to evaluate future infrastructure rehabilitation and replacement needs • Maintain recycled water cost at or below 75% of potable water irrigation cost to encourage the use of recycled water
• Negotiate a new agreement for purchase of recycled water from Vallecitos Water District

SIGNIFICANT CHANGES TO THIS YEAR’S BUDGET
The overall budget increase is due to a one-time budgeted transfer from the Recycled Water Operating Fund to the Recycled Water Connection Fund of $16.4 million. This is related to a State Water Resources Control Board loan reaching the payback period, whereby the Recycled Water Operating Fund will begin repayment while the proceeds of the loan will remain in the associated capital fund. The budget includes an increase of approximately $1.1 million to cover the cost increase anticipated under the new draft agreement between the district and Vallecitos Water District to purchase recycled water.

From: Scott McClelland, General Manager
Subject: Transmittal of FY 2025-26 Recommended Operating & Capital Budgets This letter transmits the Encina Wastewater Authority’s (Encina) Recommended Fiscal Year 2025-26 Operating and Capital Budgets. In conformance with the Revised Basic Agreement for Ownership, Operation and Maintenance of the Encina Joint Sewage System, this Recommended Budget estimates the amount of money required to sustainably operate, maintain and administer the Joint System during Fiscal Year 2025-26. It also includes estimates for each Member Agency’s proportionate share of the budget.

Encina’s operations directly support public and environmental health and a North San Diego economy in excess of $20 billion dollars. Global volatility and uncertainty continue to be consistent themes that are putting significant upward pressure on the cost of providing wastewater services. For example, January 2025 wildfires in the Los Angeles area are anticipated to boost demand for construction materials and construction labor during post-wildfire rebuilding efforts. The increased demand is expected to drive up prices and put additional pressure on supply chains. United States policy decisions on tariffs are anticipated to increase prices in a variety of sectors. Lumber, gypsum, metals, and electronics are expected to be impacted, all of which are used in Encina’s construction projects and throughout the plant. Increasing the adaptability, sustainability, and resiliency of operations and finances will become important for all public utilities. Within this budget staff continues to proactively adapt to a volatile environment and creates a roadmap to help ensure Encina protects public and environmental health for generations to come.

As shown in the table below, the Recommended Fiscal Year 2025-26 budget reflects a 8.5% decrease over last year’s budget:

The following sections will describe how this budget will allow Encina to continue its mission to provide reliable, resilient and sustainable wastewater services to North San Diego County while optimizing the use of renewable resources.

OPERATING BUDGET OVERVIEW
The FY 2025-26 Operating Budget reflects Encina’s continuing commitment to provide sustainable and fiscally responsible wastewater services to the communities it serves while maximizing the use of alternative and renewable resources. The Recommended FY 2025-26 Operating Budget is comprised of seven (7) operational programs that provide services to the Encina Member Agencies. Each operational program includes direct personnel and non-personnel expenses and related internal service fund (ISF) charges. The Recommended FY 2025-26 Budget reflects management’s strategies and objectives to ensure continued achievement within each of the six (6) Strategic Initiatives identified in the Five-Year Strategic Plan (2024- 2028): Protect Public and Environmental Health; Remain an Employer of Choice; Ensure Administrative Effectiveness; Budget Actual

The Recommended FY 2025-26 Operating Budget totals approximately $28.2M for the seven (7) operational programs summarized below:

The primary driver for this operating budget is the existing obligations associated with staffing costs, which make up most of the operating budget increase. Attracting, retaining, and developing a highly skilled, adaptable, and engaged workforce is critical to the success of Encina’s mission. The budget reflects the implementation of year three in the three-year salary and benefit package approved by the Board of Directors in July 2023. Within staffing costs, increases in health benefit costs and CalPERS related costs for existing staff are the most significant factors driving the personnel increase. Health benefits continue to be costly, and costs related to CalPERS unfunded accrued liability and Encina’s Pension Policy are included within this budget.

Other impacts to the operating budget include energy and insurance costs. Chemical costs are decreasing overall based on chemical bids received in April. Volatility continues to impact these sectors making it difficult to predict long-term trends and their impact on Encina. In prior years volatility put significant upward pressure on the operating budget. Longer-term, the Cogeneration Low Emission & Augmentation Retrofit (CLEAR) project currently being developed aims to stabilize long-term energy costs, as well as respond to increasingly stringent air quality regulations, in a way that maximizes value for Encina and its Member Agencies.

CAPITAL BUDGET OVERVIEW
The Recommended FY 2025-26 Capital Budget totals approximately $24.4M for the following Encina capital programs summarized below:

Despite a history of strategic planning, capital costs have increased rapidly over the past 3 years driven by the global volatility discussed in previous budgets. Encina’s 2040 Master Plan provided direction related to addressing some, but not all, of the changing environment Encina is facing. While the Recommended FY 2025-26 Capital Budget reflects pressures from several directions including aging infrastructure renewal, solids management capacity due to solids inflow growth, and regulations, it also reflects the opportunity to adapt to a new paradigm.

Aging Infrastructure Renewal
Facility age and a uniquely corrosive marine environment, given Encina’s coastal location and the nature of the resources Encina manages, are putting significant pressure on infrastructure renewal. The original treatment plant was constructed in 1963 with Phase I and II following in 1971 and 1975 respectively. The first three phases were built between 50 and 62 years ago. Phase III and IV were built in 1982 and 1992, respectively. Phase V, the most recent comprehensive expansion, was completed in 2009. Based on estimates from July 2024 Encina is responsible for ~$746 million worth of Joint System Assets at the EWPCF. Many of these assets are near or at the end of their useful life. Failure to proactively maintain Encina’s aging infrastructure can lead to process failures resulting in wastewater spills that negatively impact the environment and north San Diego County economy. Over the next several years, plant rehabilitation to maintain core services is expected to have an order of magnitude cost of ~$145 million, in 2025 dollars. This does not include other necessary infrastructure upgrades as discussed below.

Solids Management Capacity due to Growth
Growth within the Member Agencies’ service area is also putting significant pressure on Encina’s solids management capacity.

About 63% of the overall 43.31 million gallons per day of solids capacity is currently used which creates three challenges.

First, reduced hydraulic detention time of solids in the digesters is near the permit limit of 15 days. This permit limit allows for the disposal of Class “B” solids when the heat dryer system does not have adequate capacity to meet demands or is out of service for maintenance. The Biosolids Management Plan completed in 2022 identified the need for either increased hydraulic capacity at the digesters or the installation of a second heat dryer system; adding hydraulic capacity in the digester process was determined to be the least cost alternative as rehabilitation of unused existing infrastructure would reduce overall project costs. Second, the additional digester capacity would provide buffering capabilities in the event that Encina experiences a process upset where an upset digester would need to be isolated and the biological activity restored to normal levels without the potential to spill digested solids. Third, spare solids management capacity is needed to ensure preventative maintenance can be performed on the digesters helping increase infrastructure sustainability and resiliency and lowering long-term costs. Without the spare capacity to meet permit requirements, allow for appropriate control of process upsets Capital Program Actual

and for proactive and preventative maintenance, the risk of permit violations, infrastructure failures and costly rehabilitation increases significantly. Over the next 5 years, improvements to Encina's Digester 1, 2, and 3 are expected to have a cost order of magnitude of ~$40 million, in 2025 dollars.

Regulatory Environment
More stringent regulations continue to put significant pressure on Encina. While some upcoming regulations are predictable, they are not fully quantifiable, leading to increased business risk. For example, newly adopted air quality regulations by the EPA and the State will have a profound impact on Encina’s cogeneration engines used to produce power and heat onsite. If a viable alternative cannot be found, Encina anticipates that its energy costs will increase ~$3.3 million annually, in 2025 dollars.

The CLEAR project currently being developed aims to stabilize those energy costs while simultaneously addressing the newly adopted air quality regulations. Another example includes the State Water Resource Control Board (SWRCB) investigating how nutrients discharged from treatment plants impact the ocean ecosystem. There is concern that excess nutrients from ocean outfalls contribute to ocean acidification and hypoxia, both of which can have substantial negative impacts on marine ecosystems. Recently, Encina completed a plume tracking study in accordance with operating permit requirements. The data from this study is being monitored by the SWRCB and is anticipated to guide their future regulations. Staff anticipates our 2018 National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (NPDES) permit, which included plume tracking for the first time, will be renewed by late 2025 with additional requirements not yet known. Based on SWRCB’s historical regulation cycle, staff anticipates the SWRCB will incorporate nutrient limits into our NPDES permit between 2032 and 2040. One of the most common technologies available to remove nutrients from wastewater discharge are membrane bio-reactors, the same technology used for direct or indirect potable reuse projects. This technology is costly. Over the next nine years, regulatory requirements impacting energy resources and nutrient limits on Encina’s Ocean Outfall are expected to have an order of magnitude cost of ~$25 million and ~$220 million, respectively, in 2025 dollars. Grant funding totaling ~$14 million is expected to offset a portion of the expected ~$25 million for the CLEAR project.

General Capital
The proposed capital budget reflects steps to begin addressing these challenges. The Capital Improvement Projects are planned, scoped, and prioritized to consider anticipated changes in regulatory requirements, prospective operational efficiencies, funding availability, available resources and other factors.

Staffing resources are also critical to the successful execution of the decades-long capital plan to address Encina’s challenges.

As such, the Recommended FY 2025-26 Capital Budget includes funding for ~10 full-time equivalent (FTE) positions. These positions include full and part-time efforts of Encina executives, professionals, managers, and technical staff who plan, direct, and support Encina’s Capital Program. The addition of the Engineer position last budget cycle helps support the significant workload associated with Encina’s aging infrastructure, capacity improvements, and regulatory requirements.

Capital Improvement Projects for FY 2025-26 include new and continued funding of the CLEAR ($7.3M), Primary Sedimentation Basin Mechanical Rehabilitation ($3.0M), and the Secondaries & Effluent Electrical & Controls Improvements ($3.0M), along with over 50 other projects of lesser value.

Planned Asset Rehabilitation and Replacement (PARR) effort at EWPCF reflects minor plant rehabilitation efforts undertaken by Encina staff to maintain the Joint System assets. PARR Projects total ~$1.7M. EWPCF Capital Acquisitions total ~$0.7M and reflect investment in minor infrastructure and equipment. Remote Facilities – Acquisitions and Rehabilitation total ~$1.2M and reflect investment in remote facility improvements.

SUMMARY
Staff has made every effort to coordinate with the Member Agencies and provides its best professional judgement based on understanding the day-to-day operating requirements and capital investment needs while developing the budget. This budget represents the a comprehensive plan to address the challenges Encina is facing. The two largest factors influencing

As such, staff will be working with the Member Agencies to identify alternatives to pay-as-you-go funding to help minimize the financial impacts to their ratepayers and realize the economic value of Encina’s resources. A staffing framework has also been developed to support these efforts. However, given the impacts of adding additional staff, Encina is proposing to take an “adaptive management" approach to ensure Encina continues to operate using a lean staffing model; only having the staff necessary to support its mission and reassessing staffing needs at every opportunity. Staff will be working with the Board and Member Agencies on solutions over the next decade to ensure Encina can continue to protect public and environmental health for generations to come.

Through efforts by staff, Encina consistently looks for opportunities to enhance efficiency and provide value to its Member Agencies and their rate payers. As a result, Encina has been able to hold a very tight line on all costs that are discretionary with an increase of merely 0.5% above last year’s budget. Encina continues to look for long-term solutions to infrastructure challenges that provide lasting value for the community it serves.

Please join me in recognizing the staff whose efforts produced this document. Assistant General Manager Jennifer Sabine, who prepared and developed operations estimates with the Executive Leadership team at Encina. Aaron Beanan, Director of Finance, who led efforts in the preparation and development of the Recommended FY 2025-26 Budget. Finally, the Executive Leadership Team coordinated the budget development processes within their respective departments.

RESOURCE RECOVERY
Encinas has long been a leader in the wastewater industry while still remaining within the industry standards for cost of service. Encina
was one of the first in the nation to
adopt a cogeneration model back in
the 1980’s, one of the first in the
state and nation to adopt a heat
dryer model, and one of the first in
the nation to use beer wastes as a
power generation source in 2017.

Each of these has provided value to
Encina, its Member Agencies, and
their ratepayers. Because of
Encina’s unique approach within the industry, it provides exceptional value for its Member Agencies and ratepayers.

ORGANIZATION OF EXCELLENCE
Encina is a model of excellence and innovation. Encina has received over 40 awards for organizational excellence and innovations over the past decade. This reflects the competence of Encina’s highly qualified, trained, and certified workforce. Some recent awards are shown here.

ENCINA WATER POLLUTION CONTROL FACILITY
The Encina Water Pollution Control Facility (EWPCF), located in Carlsbad, California, provides wastewater treatment services to approximately 380,000 residents in a 123 square mile service area of northwest San Diego County. The EWPCF consists of three major components: the treatment plant; the Encina Ocean Outfall (EOO); and the Joint Flow Metering System (JFMS).

The EWPCF was constructed in 1963 to treat wastewater from the Cities of Carlsbad and Vista, with the City of Encinitas, Vallecitos Water District, Buena Sanitation District and Leucadia Wastewater District joining the partnership in the subsequent years. Since its original design and construction, the treatment plant has undergone four (4) major expansions – the latest completed in 2009 – and is beginning another round of construction to address reliability and aging infrastructure.

Today, the EWPCF is a modern resource recovery facility that produces: clean water for recycling and Pacific Ocean discharge (via primary and secondary activated sludge treatment processes); flow equalization facilities; and a 1.5 mile EOO, which discharges treated effluent at an average depth of one-hundred-fifty (150) feet; a granular fertilizer marketed under the trade name PureGreen (via anaerobic digesters, solids dewatering centrifuges, and a triple-pass rotary drum heat dryer); and, between 80 and 85% of the electricity required to power the EWPCF (via a Combined Heat & Cogeneration Power System) in a typical year. In addition, the JFMS consists of nineteen (19) flow meters strategically placed throughout the collection system. The data collected at these metering sites, which is analyzed and certified by an independent consultant, is a critical element in allocating EWPCF costs among the Encina Member Agencies.

Capacity – The EWPCF has a rated liquid treatment capacity of 40.51 million gallons per day (MGD) and a rated solids treatment capacity of 43.53 MGD. During FY 2024-25, the EWPCF will: (1) clean more than 7.97 billion gallons of water; (2) recycle about 2.9 billion gallons for on-site use and regional irrigation; and, (3) process 99 million gallons of digested sludge into over 6,300 tons of PureGreen fertilizer based on prior year actuals.

Cost Allocation – The EWPCF costs are allocated among member agencies based on ownership and usage charges in accordance with the Financial Plan and Revenue Program. EOO costs are allocated among Member Agencies based on the volume of effluent discharged. JFMS costs are allocated among the Member Agencies based on the number, location and type of meters.

ENVIRONMENTAL COMPLIANCE
& REGIONAL SOURCE CONTROL
The EWPCF discharges clean water to the Pacific Ocean via the Encina Ocean Outfall pursuant to a National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (NPDES) Permit issued under the authority of the federal Clean Water Act (CWA). The CWA also covers non-domestic sources of wastewater that discharge directly to a publicly owned treatment works like the EWPCF.

Such discharges may be federally regulated or regulated by Encina’s Pretreatment Ordinance, which are enforced by Encina in cooperation with the host Member Agency under authority derived from the federal CWA. The goal of Encina’s Regional Source Control Program is to prevent the discharge of pollutants into the Member Agency sewer system, which may interfere with the operation of the EWPCF or pass through the system and negatively impact the ocean environment, the quality of PureGreen fertilizer or the ability to reclaim water. The Source Control Program achieves this goal by: identifying regulated industries; conducting facility inspections; issuing wastewater discharge permits; sampling industrial discharges to determine compliance; taking enforcement in response to noncompliance; responding to Member Agency requests to perform investigations regarding non-routine discharges; and, conducting related public outreach activities.

Capacity – During FY 2025-26 staff estimates sixty (60) industries will be fully permitted under a Class I, II, or III permit, while another 500 businesses will participate in Encina’s Best Management Practices Program.

Cost Allocation – Personnel Expenses make up over 84% of Source Control’s budgeted expenses. Over 79% of personnel expenses are allocated to Member Agencies based on the actual level of effort by staff. The remaining personnel expenses and all non-personnel expenses are allocated to the Member Agencies on the basis of Encina Ocean Outfall flows.

Public outreach at the 2024 Carlsbad Citizen’s Academy.

REMOTE FACILITIES

CARLSBAD WATER RECYCLING FACILITY
The Carlsbad Water Recycling Facility (CWRF) is owned by the City of Carlsbad via the Carlsbad Municipal Water District. The facility is located on nine (9) acres directly adjacent to the southwest border of the EWPCF.

Capacity – The CWRF treats EWPCF secondary effluent to meet title 22, California Code of Regulations standards for disinfected tertiary recycled water, which is conveyed throughout the City for irrigation purposes. A plant expansion completed during FY 2016-17 increased the plant capacity to 7 MGD.

Cost Allocation – The CWRF is operated by EWA under a contract with the Carlsbad Municipal Water District. 100% of the costs for operating and maintaining the CWRF are paid by the Carlsbad Municipal Water District, via the City of Carlsbad, in accordance with the May 2005 Memorandum of Understanding (being revised in 2025). Recommended expenses are based on the expected recycled water production volume. Production volume is anticipated to increase during Fiscal Year 2025-26 due to decreased production at the Vallecitos Water District’s Meadowlark Water Reclamation Facility. The Meadowlark Water Reclamation Facility typically supplies a portion of the City of Carlsbad’s recycled water needs but will be offline due to planned maintenance activities for a portion of the fiscal year. Actual expenditures will reflect the actual volume of recycled water production.

INTERNAL SERVICE FUNDS
Internal Service Funds (ISFs) make categorical and overhead charges to operating and capital programs. Categorical charges are costs incurred by the ISF that are directly attributable to a particular operating or capital program the ISF supports.

Overhead charges are costs incurred by the ISF that support more than one operating or capital program. Encina’s budget reflects three ISFs: (1) Administration; (2) Laboratory; and, (3) Energy Management. The existence of these ISFs traces back to the 1998 Encina Staffing Reorganization and management’s effort to distinguish between costs required to ensure public health, produce effluent water compliant with NPDES Permit standards, and maintain the associated Encina Joint System infrastructure from costs associated with administering the Encina Joint System that could be taken on by a Member Agency or a third party administrator (Administration), permit compliance activities that could be contracted out (Laboratory), and power that could be purchased from San Diego Gas & Electric (Energy Management).

Administration – The Administration Internal Service Fund provides professional support services to Encina’s Board of Directors as well as all Operating and Capital Programs. Administration plans and executes Encina’s business, asset management, and financial plans; provides treasury and accountancy management; is responsible for required and supplemental financial reporting; administers all human resources functions, employee benefits, professional development, and other “Employer of Choice” initiatives; and, supports Encina’s governance activities. Administration also supports technology infrastructure, provides cybersecurity and data protection, provides disaster recovery and continuity planning, provides support and helpdesk services, and helps ensure compliance with various governance activities.

Laboratory – The Laboratory Internal Service Fund is responsible for monitoring and reporting activities required by: (1) Encina’s National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (NPDES) Permit; (2) permits related to facilities operated and maintained by Encina staff; (3) Encina’s Storm Water Permit; and, (4) permits and contracts related to biosolids use. The Laboratory is also responsible for management of Encina’s Joint Flow Metering System (JFMS), as well as the sampling and data compilation elements of Encina’s Financial Plan and Revenue Program.

Encina’s Laboratory, which is certified by the State of California’s Environmental Laboratory Accreditation Program, analyzes over 32,000 samples per year including process control, plant influent and effluent, biosolids, industrial user samples, ocean water, storm water, and drinking water. A portion of the analyses is completed under contract for Encina’s Member Agencies, which generated over $231,000 in revenue in FY 2024-25, offsetting operating expenses.

Energy Management – The Energy Management Internal Service Fund utilizes the EWPCF’s power production and heat exchange facilities to maximize the beneficial reuse of digester gas produced in the wastewater treatment process thus minimizing the amount of energy Encina must purchase to operate the EWPCF. EWPCF’s Energy Management facilities generates about 12 million kilowatt hours of green electricity per year from biogas thus providing up to 85% of the electricity required to operate the EWPCF. Encina is a member of the Environmental Protection Agency’s Green Power Partnership and has been ranked in the Top 30 of the Green Power Leadership Club for On-Site Generation since 2011.

Cost Allocation – All ISF costs and revenues are allocated internally to one or more Operating or Capital program on the basis of use. Each Operating and Capital program has its own cost allocation that apportions its net costs the Member Agencies.

CAPITAL PROGRAM
The Authority’s Capital Program consists of the following elements: (1) EWPCF – Capital Improvements; (2) EWPCF – Planned Asset Rehabilitation & Replacement; (3) EWPCF – Capital Acquisitions; (4) Remote Facilities – Acquisitions & Rehabilitation; (5) Five-Year Capital Improvement Plan; and (6) Twenty Year Capital Improvement Plan.

EWPCF – Capital Improvements – Capital Improvement Projects are those projects that increase or maintain the capacity of the Joint System and require a significant time commitment from staff. These projects regularly span multiple fiscal years and, therefore, unspent appropriations are carried forward by the Authority’s annual Appropriations Resolution. Capital Project costs are allocated to Member Agencies based on ownership of the affected facilities. All Capital Projects are studied, designed, and executed pursuant to Encina’s Comprehensive Asset Management Plan.

Encina Wastewater Authority, 2014
EWPCF – Planned Asset Rehabilitation & Replacement – Planned Asset Rehabilitation & Replacement projects extend the useful life of existing Joint System facilities and require a significant time commitment from staff. These projects are typically completed within a fiscal year, however, if a project cannot be completed, the Authority’s annual Appropriations Resolution will identify unspent appropriations to be carried forward. Planned Asset Replacement costs are allocated based on ownership of the affected facilities.

EWPCF – Capital Acquisitions – Capital Acquisitions include the purchase of new items and minor facility projects that maintain the capacity and useful life of existing Joint System facilities. Expenditures are allocated based on the benefiting program or internal service fund.

Remote Facilities – Acquisitions & Rehabilitation – Remote Facility Acquisitions and Rehabilitation include the purchase of new items and minor facility projects that maintain the capacity and useful life of existing remote facilities operated by the Authority. Expenditures are allocated based on ownership of the affected facilities.

CAPITAL PROGRAM (cont.)

LONG TERM CAPITAL IMPROVEMENTS
Five-Year Capital Improvement Plan – The Five-Year Capital Improvement Plan includes expenditure projections for current and planned projects expected to require additional appropriations through FY 2029-30, as identified by Encina’s Comprehensive Asset Management Plan (E-CAMP) documents. The Five-Year Capital Improvement Plan is developed and sequenced pursuant to E-CAMP.

Twenty-Year Capital Improvement Plan – The Twenty-Year Capital Improvement Plan includes expenditure projections for current and planned projects expected to require additional appropriations through FY 2044-45.

As planning reports are updated or other information becomes available, the long-term financial schedules may be revised.

Capital Programs may also be modified due to unanticipated wastewater service requirements by one or more Member Agencies, cost inflation, changes in local population and development growth patterns, and new regulatory requirements. All projections are shown in current year dollars.

1. Amount authorized represents Board of Director's appropriations/authorizations (>$100,000) and/or General Manager appropriations/authorization (<$100,000) and may be different than existing project appropriations due to the "cash flow" budgeting approach for projects.

2. Historical data based on available information from when Munis was implemented over 10 years ago.

3. Reflects transfers occuring after the FY 2024-25 published budget document and may include transfers to/from projects now closed. The transfers are due to project timining differences and in lieu of appropriation requests to minimize cash flow impacts.

4. Includes actual expenditures through mid-February 2025.

5. The estimated carryforward includes encumbrances and available balance through mid-February 2025 and may vary based on actual spending through fiscal year end.

6. Cogeneration Low Emission Augmentation & Retrofit (CLEAR) project offsets are currently anticipated from Investment Tax Credit (via the Inflation Reduction Act) and Self-Generation Incentive Program (via the California Public Utilities Commission) funds.

7. Represent prior projects with current activity not included in FY 2024-25 published budget document.

8. Partially offset by Federal grant revenues.

9. Represents anticipated expenditures based on historical experience that have not yet been assigned to a specific project.
