ITEM 4. 8
CITY MANAGER' S REPORT
JULY 10, 2023 CITY COUNCIL REGULAR MEETING
ITEM: APPROVE PROFESSIONAL SERVICES AGREEMENT
WITH EKI ENVIRONMENT & WATER, INC., FOR PFAS
IN GROUNDWATER STUDY FOR CIP PW 20- 16
GROUNDWATER TREATMENT IMPROVEMENTS
RECOMMENDATION: Adopt Resolution Approving a Professional Services Agreement with EKI Environment & Water, Inc., for
PFAS Characterization and Evaluation of Planned
PFAS treatment for CIP PW 20- 16 Groundwater
Treatment Improvements
SUMMARY:
Per- and Polyfluoroalkyl Substances ( PFAS) are a large group of environmentally persistent manmade chemicals that are used in a wide range of products including fire- fighting foam, non- stick cookware and other products designed to be waterproof, non- stick or stain resistant. Due to their widespread use and persistence in the environment, most people in the United States have been exposed to PFAS. There is evidence that continued exposure above specific levels to certain PFAS may lead to adverse health effects.
PFAS were first detected in the City' s groundwater supply wells in summer of 2019, and on October 14, 2019, Council approved the creation of CIP PW 20- 16 Groundwater Treatment Improvements and approved the ratification of agreements with EKI to provide technical support services related to the detection of PFAS in the City' s groundwater. Subsequently, in 2020 and 2022, additional studies have been performed by EKI and Carollo Engineers, Inc. ( Carollo) related to the treatment and management of PFAS at the City' s wells.
Well 9 has remained offline since 2019 as it has consistently shown PFAS levels that have exceeded the state drinking water Response Levels ( RLs) that require removal or treatment of the source. Wells 6, 7, 8 and 10 have all shown PFAS exceeding state Notification Levels ( NLs), but remain online as all of the observed PFAS concentrations in these wells have been significantly below the RLs.
In March 2023, the United States Environmental Protection Agency ( US- EPA) released proposed federal Maximum Contaminant Levels ( MCLs) for six PFAS compounds which exceed observed detections in all City wells for perfluorooctane sulfonate ( PFOS). In addition, recent sampling results have shown an increase in Well 9, particularly in the doubling of previously observed PFOS concentrations. 165
CITY MANAGER' S REPORT PAGE 2
JULY 10, 2023 CITY COUNCIL REGULAR MEETING
APPROVE PROFESSIONAL SERVICES AGREEMENT WITH EKI ENVIRONMENT WATER, INC., FOR PFAS IN GROUNDWATER STUDY FOR CIP PW 20- 16
GROUNDWATER TREATMENT IMPROVEMENTS
At the request of City staff, EKI has provided a proposal to evaluate the impacts of the higher concentrations of PFAS observed at Well 9, and the potential for these higher concentrations to migrate and affect the City' s other drinking wells in the future. To complete the evaluation, EKI will evaluate the locations of potential PFAS sources, the current extent and distribution of PFAS contamination in groundwater, and characterization and behavior of the groundwater system in response to groundwater extraction.
Staff is requesting that Council approve a Professional Services Agreement ( PSA) with EKI in the amount of $ 69, 600 to provide this evaluation.
BACKGROUND:
In 2019, in response to monitoring orders issued by the California State Water Resources Control Board Department of Drinking Water, the City, with technical support from EKI, began sampling for PFAS in its groundwater supply. Detections of PFOS and perfluorooctanoic acid ( PFOA) in groundwater collected from Well 9 have consistently exceeded the state drinking water NLs and RLs enforced through the California State Water Resources Control Board and detections of PFOS have exceeded the NLs in groundwater collected from Wells 6, 7, 8, and 10. Detections of perfluorohexane sulfonic acid ( PFHxS) have exceeded the NLs in Wells 6 through 9.
In 2020, EKI evaluated 11 alternatives for PFAS management and treatment at the City' s wells and at the centralized Louise Avenue Treatment Facility ( LAWTF) and conducted a bench- scale granular activated carbon ( GAC) test to explore the performance treating the City' s groundwater with GAC pressure vessels. In a March 2020 technical memorandum, EKI recommended that the City ( 1) restart wells 6, 7, 8, and 10, with Well 9 remaining offline as a standby well, ( 2) move forward with the depth- specific profiling of wells to determine if any low- cost alternatives are viable, and ( 3) postpone treatment until regulatory standards are established. Well 9 has remained offline since 2019. In 2022, the City contracted with Carollo to further study and develop the City' s options for GAC treatment of only groundwater from Well 9 and blended groundwater from all the City' s Wells ( Well 6- 10) at the LAWTF.
In March 2023, after completion of these studies, the US- EPA proposed federal MCLs for six PFAS compounds, which are anticipated to be promulgated by the end of 2023 and effective by the end of 2026. Detections of PFAS in groundwater collected from each of the City' s wells exceed the proposed MCLs. In addition, recent sampling results found an increase in PFAS concentrations in Well 9, particularly the doubling of the observed PFOS concentrations
At the request of Staff, EKI provided a proposal to further characterize PFAS in the City' s groundwater supply and evaluate planned PFAS Treatment. 166

Subject: Proposal for to Characterize PFAS in Groundwater and Evaluate Planned PFAS Treatment( PW 20- 16)
City of Lathrop, California
EKI C3- 168)
EKI Environment & Water, Inc. ( EKI) is pleased to present to the City of Lathrop ( Lathrop or City) this proposal for evaluating the City' s groundwater for the presence, potential transport, and potential sources of per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances ( PFAS) and proposed PFAS treatment options. The proposed work included herein aims to expand on studies completed previously by EKI and others to better understand ( 1) the extent of PFAS contamination, ( 2) if the elevated levels of PFAS detected in Well 9 or other locations will impact the City' s other drinking water supply wells, and ( 3) how these potential impacts may impact planned PFAS treatment.
BACKGROUND AND PROJECT UNDERSTANDING
In 2019, in response to monitoring orders issued by the California State Water Resources Control Board Department of Drinking Water ( DDW), the City, with technical support from EKI, began sampling for PFAS in its groundwater supply. Detections of perfluorooctane sulfonate ( PFOS) and perfluorooctanoic acid ( PFOA) in groundwater collected from Well 9 have consistently exceeded the state drinking water notification levels ( NLs) and response levels ( RLs) enforced through the California State Water Resources Control Board ( SWRCB) and detections of PFOS have exceeded the NLs in groundwater collected from Wells 6, 7, 8, and 10. Detections of perfluorohexane sulfonic acid ( PFHxS) have exceeded the NLs in Wells 6 through 9.
In 2020, EKI evaluated 11 alternatives for PFAS management and treatment at the City' s wells and at the centralized Louise Avenue Treatment Facility ( LAWTF) and conducted a bench- scale granular activated carbon ( GAC) test to explore the performance treating the City' s groundwater with GAC pressure vessels. In a March 2020 technical memorandum, 1 EKt recommended that the City ( 1) restart wells 6, 7, 8, and 10, with Well 9 remaining offline as a standby well, ( 2) move forward with the depth- specific profiling of wells to determine if any low- cost alternatives are 1 EKI, 2020.

viable, and ( 3) postpone treatment until regulatory standards are established. Well 9 has remained offline since 2019. In 2022, the City contracted with Carollo Engineers ( Carollo) to further study and develop the City' s options for GAC treatment of only groundwater from Well 9 and blended groundwater from all the City' s Wells (Well 6- 10) at the LAWTF. z In March 2023, after completion of these studies, the United States Environmental Protection Agency ( EPA) proposed federal maximum contaminant levels ( MCLs) for six PFAS compounds, which are anticipated to be promulgated by the end of 2023 and effective by the end of 2026.
Detections of PFOS in groundwater collected from each of the City' s wells exceed the proposed PFOS MCL; detections of PFOA and the mixture of perfluorononanoic acid ( PFNA), PFHxS, perfluorobutane sulfonic acid ( PFBS), and hexafluoropropylene oxide dimer acid ( tradename GenX) compounds in Well 9 also exceed the proposed MCLs. In addition, recent sampling results found an increase in PFAS concentrations in Well 9, particularly the doubling of the observed PFOS concentrations.
The City has requested that EKI evaluate the ( a) impacts of the higher concentrations of PFAS observed at Well 9, ( b) the potential for these higher concentrations to migrate and impact the City' s other drinking water supply wells in the future, and ( c) the consequences of these potential impacts and updated PFAS regulations with respect to the proposed PFAS treatment options. To complete this evaluation, it is critical to understand ( a) the locations of potential sources of PFAS, b) the current extent and distribution of PFAS contamination in groundwater, and ( c) the characteristics and behavior of the groundwater system in response to groundwater extraction.
As described in the scope of work below, EKI will research available data and records to identify probable PFAS sources, model groundwater flow to establish upgradient sources and downgradient impacts, and provide suggestions for management and treatment of groundwater from Wells 6 through 10.
SCOPE OF WORK
EKI Proposes the following tasks as part of this scope of work to complete the PFAS evaluation.
Task 1— Review PFAS Water Quality Data and Historical Pumping Operations As an initial task, EKI will request from the City all the PFAS analytical data for groundwater collected from the City' s wells after December 2019. EKI will additional search for publicly available data through the SWRCB' s GeoTracker PFAS map, 3 the SWRCB' s Groundwater Ambient Monitoring and Assessment Program ( GAMA) Groundwater Information System, 4 and the EPA' s online PFAS Analytic Tool software. 5 EKI will compile the City' s and publicly available data and z Carollo, 2022.

update tables and figures included in EKI' s March 2020 technical memorandum tracking trends in PFAS concentrations in each of the City' s wells. These updated tables and figures will be used to evaluate recent trends and distribution of PFAS concentrations in groundwater.
As part of this task, EKI will also request and review information related to the following:
Records of the City' s recent pumping operations for each of its water supply wells.
Records of other relevant groundwater pumping operations including the groundwater extraction system operated by Occidental Chemical Corporation at the J. R. Simplot Site.
Recent studies or efforts related to Well 9 completed by the City after 2019.
This information will help inform subsequent tasks.
Deliverables:
Updated Table and Figure showing PFAS distribution and trends in each of the City' s groundwater supply wells ( electronic format).
Assumptions:
Task 1 includes a kickoff ineeting in which EKI will identify initial data needs.
Findings from this task will be summarized in the technical memorandum prepared as part of Task 4.
Task 2— Identify Potential Sources of PFAS
EKI will identify locations of potential sources of PFAS 6 surrounding the City' s wells. In
combination with the trends and distribution of PFAS in groundwater from Task 1 and groundwater flow directions from Task 3, this information will help to determine whether possible zones of high concentrations of PFAS in groundwater could migrate and impact the City' s other drinking water supply wells in the future.
Developing the list of potential PFAS sources to groundwater will involve: 1) utilizing groundwater flow data from Task 3 to establish the upgradient direction compared to PFAS- impacted wells; 2) conducting a thorough search of current and historical possible sources, focusing on the wellhead protection areas ( WHPAs) for the City of Lathrop supply wells identified in Task 3; and 3) evaluating and comparing the type and concentration ( i. e., fingerprint) of PFAS in the City' s wells and of the potential PFAS sources. Both current and historical records must be investigated to develop a list and timeline of potential users of PFAS, and to use this timeline to better 6 There are many potential sources that could contribute to PFAS impacted groundwater including wastewater treatment plants( WWTPs), airports and military bases, landfills, and industrial users/ producers of PFAS. 185

understand how the area' s zones of high PFAS concentration have migrated in the past and how they will continue to migrate near the City' s wells.
Records and data review will include:
Reviewing available historical land use information for the area surrounding the well locations (Site), adjoining properties, and surrounding area, e.g., historical Sanborn maps, historical aerial photographs, historical USGS topographic maps, and historical City Directories, provided by Environmental Data Resources, Inc. ( EDR); Purchasing and reviewing an environmental regulatory agency database report for the Site and surrounding area prepared by EDR ( referred to as an EDR Radius Map Report); Purchasing and reviewing an Environmental Lien Search report for the Site, prepared by EDR; Searching for environmental reports for the Site and selected nearby upgradient reported chemical release sites on the SWRCB GeoTracker and California Department of Toxic Substances Control ( DTSC) EnviroStor database websites, and reviewing available files; and
Reviewing, downloading, and analyzing publicly available PFAS data through resources mentioned in Task 1.
Probable PFAS sources identified through the database search will be mapped with well locations and groundwater flow directions. Simultaneously, the types and concentrations of PFAS at the wells and these probable upgradient locations will be compared using unsupervised hierarchical clustering to identify correlations in PFAS signatures ( i. e., fingerprints) between the wells and sources. These correlations will help identify the most probable sources contributing to the PFASimpacted wells. Examples of possible PFAS sources include wastewater treatment facilities, industrial facilities, landfills, airports, and military bases.
Site- specific data will be compared with publicly available neighboring data and California- wide ddta to identify any anomalies in PFAS signatures ( e. g., comparing California- wide WWTPs PFAS data with the local WWTPs). Additionally, if any temporal data is available, these will be reviewed to help determine fate, transport, and possible transformation of precursor PFAS to products including PFOS and PFHxS, all of which will assist in the understanding of the sources and the timing of the PFAS contamination.
Deliverables:
Written summary of findings from historical records from EDR.
As needed, data tables/ figures showing PFAS concentrations from surrounding potential sources.

Assumptions:
Findings from this task will be summarized in the technical memorandum prepared as part of Task 4.
Task includes one status meeting with the City to present preliminary findings from Task 2.
Task 3— Model the Groundwater Transport to Evaluate Future Water Quality Impacts Task 3 will employ a numerical groundwater-flow model to map the WHPAs for City of Lathrop supply wells. A WHPA is the area from which groundwater flows to the water supply well within a specified time. It can delineate the area where land surface activities contribute dissolved constituents to groundwater ( i. e., PFAS sources) and influence the quality of water produced by the well. The extent and shape of the WHPA is controlled by the geologic framework of the aquifer and the spatial distribution, rate and duration of recharge and pumping.
In 2004, Source Group, Inc. ( SGI) developed the numerical model of the groundwater system beneath the City of Lathrop and adjacent areas. In 2018, the SGI model was updated by GHD' and finalized in 2019. g The final model simulates the spatial distribution of groundwater- flow paths and time- of-travel for water to move from recharge areas to the water supply wells. The following list of subtasks is designed to quantify the spatial and temporal variability in past water supply well extractions, likely projected extraction rates for the future, and the resulting distribution of WHPAs and time- of-travel for groundwater and dissolved constituents to move from areas of recharge to the well screens.
1. Summarize historical pumping records and projected future pumping rates for City water supply wells.
2. Summarize groundwater- flow paths and time- of-travel estimates reported by GHD representative of historical pumping rates to infer WHPA' s for City wells and assess their uncertainty owing to the timing and duration of changes in the well pumping rates.

3. Overlay and quantitatively compare the WHPA' s and potential source areas identified above under Task 2 to prioritize likely potential PFAS sources consistent with groundwater hydraulics and water quality forensics (fingerprinting).
4. Update groundwater model to represent projected future conditions:
a. Decommissioning of percolation basin 1 ( PB- 1);
b. Remedial actions implemented at the Simplot site; and,
5. Utilize the updated model to quantify changes in the WHPA' s and time- of-travel estimates. The results shall be utilized to infer potential future water quality impacts to Well 10 and other City water supply wells.
Deliverables:
Map showing inferred historical WHPA' s for City wells based on GHD' s 2019 analyses and potential PFAS sources identified under Task 2.
Groundwater model input data files for projected future conditions.
Map showing inferred WHPA' s for City wells based on modeled projections and potential PFAS sources identified under Task 2.
Assumptions:
City will provide monthly( or at least annual) values of historical pumpage for each well operated by the City.
Findings from this task will be summarized in the technical memorandum prepared as part of Task 4.
Task includes one status meeting with the City to present preliminary findings from Task 3.
Task 4— Recommendations for the Management of PFAS- Impacted Groundwater Using the most probable PFAS sources in Task 2 with the groundwater modeling in Task 3, EKI will summarize the findings in a technical memorandum, complete with relevant figures, maps, and/ or data tables. This memorandum will include recommended next steps for the management of Wells, 6, 7, 8, and 10, with the potential of using Well 9 as an emergency well; recommendations for additional information gathering as needed ( e. g., water age analysis and/ or shallow groundwater or soil PFAS sampling); and EKI' s opinion on treatment options of the impacted wells.
As part of Task 4, EKI will evaluate whether the design criteria or other planning assumptions assumed by Carollo in their 2022 Feasibility Study should be updated based on the findings of this study. For example, if particularly high concentrations PFAS source upgradient of the City' s wells indicate that PFAs concentrations in the City' s groundwater supply are likely to increase in the future, the design criteria for the treatment system would have to be adapted. These 188

adaptations could include the volume of GAC utilized, vessel size, frequency of backwashing and/ or media replacement, etc. and resulting capital and operational cost implications.
Deliverables:
Draft and Final technical memorandum summarizing findings from Tasks 1- 3, and an analysis of how findings from Tasks 1- 3 could impact the City' s future groundwater management and the proposed PFAS Centralized Treatment System.
Presentation materials (PowerPoint slides) summarizing results of the study.
Assumptions:
EKI will present findings of the evaluation prior to the final technical memorandum' s completion at one status meeting.
The City will provide a consolidated set of comments on the draft technical memorandum.

CITY MANAGER' S REPORT
JULY 10, 2023 CITY COUNCIL REGULAR MEETING
ITEM: APPROVE PROFESSIONAL SERVICES AGREEMENT
WITH EKI ENVIRONMENT & WATER, INC., FOR
MONITORING WELL NETWORK ABANDONMENT FOR
CIP RW 24- 16 RECYCLED WATER SYSTEM
DECOMMISSIONING AND BUDGET AMENDMENT
RECOMMENDATION: Adopt Resolution Approving a Professional Services Agreement with EKI Environment & Water, Inc., for
Monitoring Well Network Abandonment for CIP RW
24- 16 Recycled Water System Decommissioning and
Budget Amendment
SUMMARY:
At their June 2023 board meeting, the Central Valley Regional Water Quality Control Board ( CVRWQCB) approved rescission of the Waste Discharge Requirements ( WDRs) and amendment to the National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System ( NPDES) permit to discharge effluent from the Consolidated Treatment Facility ( CTF) to the San Joaquin River. Previously, the CVRWQCB issued a letter dated March 27, 2023, that provided conditional approval of a technical memorandum submitted by the City for the closure activities associated with WDR rescission, which designated the City as the responsible party for the proper abandonment of 67 monitoring wells associated with the WDR monitoring well network.
At the request of staff, EKI Environment & Water, Inc. ( EKI) provided a proposal for professional services to assist the City with the monitoring well abandonment. EKI is uniquely qualified to provide these services based on approximately twenty years of experience assisting the City with groundwater monitoring and reporting for the CTF and former Crossroads WDRs. Approval of the proposed Professional Services Agreement ( PSA) with EKI in the amount of $487, 000 is requested to assist the City with the monitoring well network abandonment.
The City has insufficient funds for these costs under CIP RW 24- 16 Recycled Water System Decommissioning in the approved budget for Fiscal Years 2023- 2024 and 2024- 2025. Additional funds in the amount of $ 100, 000 is requested as a contingency for the monitoring well removal, and to cover additional costs associated with the recycled water system decommissioning. Staff is requesting that Council approve a budget amendment allocating $ 455, 500 from the CTF Fund 6110 for the City' s cost share and approve a revenue adjustment increase of $ 131, 500 to recognize the revenue received from the responsible parties. 193

JULY 10, 2023 CITY COUNCIL REGULAR MEETING
APPROVE PSA WITH EKI ENVIRONMENT & WATER, INC., FOR MONITORING WELL NETWORK ABANDONMENT FOR CIP RW 24- 16 RECYCLED WATER
SYSTEM DECOMMISSIONING AND BUDGET AMENDMENT
BACKGROUND:
At the June 2023 CVRWQB board meeting, the CVRWQB approved rescission of the WDRs and an amendment to the NPDES permit to discharge effluent from the CTF to the San Joaquin River. Previously the CVRWQCB had issued a letter on March 27, 2023, that provided conditional approval of a technical memorandum submitted by the City on the closure activities associated with WDR rescission, which designated the City as the responsible party for the proper abandonment of 67 monitoring wells associated with WDRs monitoring well network. Of the 67 wells, 34 wells are currently located on private property and 33 wells are currently located on City- owned land.
In some instances, the developer of the parcel in which the well is located has been named as the responsible party to fund the cost of well abandonment.
At the request of staff, EKI Environment & Water, Inc., ( EKI) provided a proposal for professional services for assisting the City with the monitoring well abandonment.
EKI' s scope and fee proposal includes a breakdown of costs for wells associated with the City and developer funding sources as follows:
Fundin Source Cost Estimate
Cit 355, 500
Richland 27, 700
River Islands/ Califia 73, 400
Sa brook 11, 500
Scannell Pro erties # 478, LLC 18, 900
TOTAL: 487, 000
Staff requests City Council approve a PSA with EKI to assist the City with abandonment of 67 monitoring wells associated with the CTF WDRs. In addition, staff requests approval of additional budget in the amount of $ 100, 000 to provide a contingency for the monitoring well abandonment, and to cover additional costs associated with the recycled water decommissioning such as ordering title reports, preparation of grant deeds, easements and filing fees.
REASON FOR RECOMMENDATION:
EKI is uniquely qualified to provide these services based on approximately twenty years of experience assisting the City with groundwater monitoring services associated with the CTF and former Crossroads WDRs.
The professional services to be provided by EKI under this proposed agreement will meet the regulatory requirements for proper removal of the monitoring well network pursuant to the conditionally approved closure plan associated with the WDRs rescission. Removal of these monitoring wells under will help expedite returning lands back to developers that have a right of reverter for parcels with ponds and sprayfields that are planned to be decommissioned.

SYSTEM DECOMMISSIONING AND BUDGET AMENDMENT
FISCAL IMPACT:
The total estimated time and materials cost of the proposed PSA with EKI to assist the City with the monitoring well network abandonment is $ 487, 000. The City has requested $ 131, 500 funding authorization from all responsible parties, and budgeted 250, 000 under CIP RW 24- 16 Recycled Water System Decommissioning in the fiscal year 2023- 2024 approved budget. However, this amount is insufficient to cover the City' s cost share for monitoring well removal and other anticipated costs. Additional funds in the amount of$ 100, 000 is requested to provide a contingency for monitoring well removal, and additional costs associated with the recycled water system decommissioning. Staff is also requesting that Council approve a budget amendment allocating $ 205, 500 from the CTF Fund 6110 for the City' s cost share and approve a revenue adjustment increase of $ 131, 500 to recognize the revenue received from the responsible parties as follows:

Subject: Scope of Work and Budget- Monitoring Well Network Abandonment City of Lathrop
EKI C3- 130)
Dear Mr. Gibson:
EKI Environment& Water, Inc.( EKI) is pleased to present this scope of work( SOW) and budget for assisting the City of Lathrop( City) with abandonment of 67 monitoring wells associated with the City' s Consolidated Treatment Facility ( CTF) Waste Discharge Requirements ( WDR) Order No. R5- 2018- 023. As the City has acquired a National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System( NPDES) permit[ RS- 2022- 0004( CA0085359)] 1 from the Central Valley Regional Water Quality Control Board( RWQCB) to discharge effluent from the CTF to the San Joaquin River instead of land application areas covered under the WDR, the monitoring wells are no longer required. Conditional approval for closure of various CTF site features was granted in a March 2023 recission letter from the RWQCB( Recission Letter). The RWQCB plans to rescind the CTF WDR during the RWQCB' s June 2023 Board Meeting. z
BACKGROUND
As shown in Figure 1, there are 67 existing wells associated with compliance monitoring in the Monitoring and Reporting Program Order No. R5- 2016- 0028- 03 ( MRP) that the City intends to abandon ( only wells MWM- 24 and MWR- 25 will remain in place and used for Sustainable Groundwater Management Act SGMA] compliance monitoring). As the City will cease all future effluent land disposal operations and will use recycled water only for beneficial uses regulated under the Recycled Water General Order WQ 2016- 0068- DDW( General Order), the monitoring well network is no longer needed.
Of the 67 wells, 34 wells are currently located on private property and 33 wells are currently located on City- owned land ( see Table 1). In some instances, the developer of the parcel in which the well is located has been named responsible to fund the cost of well abandonment( see Table 1, " Funding Source"). The City is responsible for all monitoring well abandonment3 in accordance with California Department of Water Resources( DWR) standards for the destruction of groundwater wells. 4 The City will work with the 1 Adopted 17 February 2022.

landowners to gain access to properly abandon the wells. In the event of non- responsive private property owners, the City will notify the RWQCB and San loaquin County ( SJC) and work with SJC Environmental Health Department( EHD) and the RWQCB for follow- up and/ or enforcement actions.
The abandonments of the monitoring wells must be conducted in accordance with the 2016 Monitoring Well Abandonment Workplan dated 25 January 2016(" Workplan"), which was conditionally approved by the RWQCB on 10 May 2016. Furthermore, based on historical and current land use and groundwater monitoring data, no hazardous constituents are expected at the drilling locations. As such, equipment decontamination procedures and the general health and safety plan outlined in the 2016 Monitoring Well Abandonment Workplan will be followed.
Prior to well abandonment, the City will file applicable well abandonment permits with the S1C EHD.
Following well abandonment, the City will file well destruction reports with the DWR.
SCOPE OF WORK
The Scope of Work provided below separates the monitoring network abandonment into five tasks and assumes a total of four well abandonment mobilizations. Exact counts and timing of the well abandonment work will depend upon landowner responses. If more than four mobilizations are required, the level of effort and cost to complete the work will increase. Table 1 provides well- specific details and assumptions and Figure 1 shows well locations. Additionally, the following assumptions are applicable for all five tasks:
Costs associated with the C- 57 licensed driller include prevailing wage rates.
The budget estimate assumes abandonment work will be conducted in a continuous fashion requiring a total of four mobilizations and demobilizations( two for each abandonment method).
Pressure grout abandonment work is anticipated to take a total of 18 days and includes the C- 57 licensed driller crew and EKI oversight on all 18 days. Overdrilling abandonment work is anticipated to take five days and includes the C- 57 licensed driller crew and EKI oversight on all five days.
Driller costs assume all locations are truck accessible.
The City will require EKI on- site for construction oversight during well abandonments and surface completion work, as applicable. For cost estimating purposes, EKI has assumed 9- hour workdays.
EKI will provide the City with electronic copies of the DWR well completion reports.
If the schedule is delayed due to unforeseen circumstances out of EKI' s control, additional budget may be required.
Additional budget may be required if site conditions differ significantly than the budget estimate assumes, based on the November 2022 well survey, or access is hindered due to inclement weather.
Task 1— City Funded Well Abandonment
Under Task 1, EKI will plan and oversee abandonment of the 43 wells located on City and private property see Table 1).

Subtask 1. 1— Private Propertv Owner Coordination
EKI will coordinate with private property owners to obtain access for well abandonment. As shown on Table 1, there are seven known, three unknown, and one assumed but unconfirmed property owner.
Under Subtask 1. 1, EKI will prepare notifications for a maximum of 12 private property ownerss of the requirement to allow City access to properly abandon fourteen ( 14) monitoring well( s). Where current ownership has changed or is otherwise unknown, EKI will attempt to determine landowner information from Assessor Parcel Number( APN) information based on publicly available data from the County and/ or other readily available methods. Notification letters will provide EKI/ City contact information that includes a phone number and email address to submit questions. To ensure delivery, EKI will send the notification letters via email and/ or accountable mail in which delivery requires a signature and/ or read receipt.
Three wells currently do not have signed access agreements in place with the existing property owner, and two wells are assumed to have the same property owner as the access agreement on file, however access has not been coordinated since 2018. EKI will coordinate and attempt to secure access agreements for a maximum of five wells including the three wells without current access agreements.
Assumptions
EKI will provide draft notification materials for City review. Comments from the City will be addressed by EKI and the notification materials finalized for transmittal to property owners.
In the event that EKI cannot determine ownership, or the notification letter cannot be delivered, EKI will work with the City to identify appropriate next steps.
Deliverables
Well abandonment notification materials for private property owners [ up to 12 letters for 14 wells].
Access agreements for up to five wells.
Subtask 1. 2- Preparation, Permittin and Contracts
Under Subtask 1. 2, EKI will complete the necessary preparations, permitting, and contracting for the abandonment of the 43 monitoring wells. This subtask includes:
Project management such as coordination, subcontracting, planning, and communication between the City, licensed driller, and traffic control specialists.
Update Site Health and Safety Plan.
Direct B. A.T.S. Traffic Solutions to obtain encroachment permits from the City of Lathrop, as needed, for up to 19 wells located within or adjacent to the street right-of-way or within public parks ( see Table 1).
5 Property owners that are unknown or uncertain have conservatively been counted as individual private property owners.

Develop traffic control plans for up to 16 wells located within or adjacent to the street right- ofway( see Table 1).
Obtain 43 monitoring well destruction permits from the SJC EHD.
Coordinate with a California- certified analytical laboratory regarding analytical needs, turnaround times, courier scheduling, and sample containers, as appropriate.
Assumptions
Each encroachment permit will require five hours of B. A.T.S. Traffic Solutions time to prepare, and the Ciry' s$ 120 encroachment permit fee.
Permits and traffic control plans for all wells will be developed and obtained simultaneously.
Monitoring wells MWM- S, MWM- 15, MWM- 17 will require an encroachment permit but not a traffic control plan.
Other wells located on City property that are not within or adjacent to the street right-of-way or within public parks, ( see Table 1) will not require an encroachment permit.
Deliverables
Up to 19 Encroachment permits
Up to 16 Traffic Control plans
Updated Site Health & Safety Plan
43 Well destruction permits
Subtask 1. 3— Mobilization and Well Abandonment
EKI will coordinate with Confluence to mobilize to the site, set up, and oversee well abandonment.
Specifically, under Subtask 1. 3 EKI will:
Mark 43 wells for Underground Services Alert ( USA) and submit tickets at least 72 hours but no more than two weeks prior to destruction activities. Simultaneously post no parking signs for up to 19 wells located within or adjacent to the street right- of-way.
Schedule well destruction inspections with the SJC EHD and direct driller to perform all sealing operations in the presence of the County inspector, unless directed otherwise by the County.
Direct B. A.T.S. Traffic Solutions to coordinate and conduct traffic control for up to 16 wells located within or adjacent to the street right- of- way in accordance with the traffic control plans developed under Subtask 2. 1.
Oversee well abandonment by a C- 57 licensed driller via pressure grouting ( 38 wells) or overdrilling( 5 wells), see Table 1 for details, using methods as described in the approved Workplan.
For 10 wells located in the street or paved parking lot and one well located in the sidewalk, direct contractor to apply hot asphalt patch and concrete patch, respectively, in accordance with Encroachment Permit.
Sampling and laboratory analysis of generated wastes for disposal, when appropriate. 215
Greg Gibson environment
City of Lathrop water
31 May 2023
Assumptions
The City will be responsible for towing vehicles that interfere with well abandonment.
Traffic control is dependent upon the site- specific traffic control plans to be developed under Subtask 1. 2, and therefore the budget assumes a two- person crew with two trucks for required traffic control ( during both abandonment and surface completion) and three weeks of traffic control rental items.
The City will be responsible for removal and repair of all fencing that interfere with well abandonment activities.
To the extent possible, soil cuttings and groundwater produced during drilling and grouting operations will be spread at the site. Where spreading is not feasible ( e. g., city street), the materials will be transported to a location as directed by the City for spreading. Should it be necessary, the budget accommodates the possible need to drum, test, and haul soil cuttings and groundwater for disposal at an approved landfill. The budget assumes one composite sample per mobilization will be collected ( total of two samples), analyzed for the standard suite of constituents required for landfill disposal6, and the materials will clear all applicable standards for non- hazardous waste disposal. If the composite sample exceeds either California Soluble Threshold Limit Concentration( STLC) or Federal Toxicity Characteristic Leaching Procedure( TCLP) limits for hazardous waste characterization, there will be additional costs associated with disposal not included herein.
Two separate mobilizations will be required to apply the hot asphalt and concrete patch work.
Surface completion work is anticipated to take a total of five days, and includes the construction crew, traffic control, and EKI oversight on all five days. Surface completion will occur within 48- hours of well abandonment completion.
32 wells will have a dirt surface completion, 10 wells will have a hot asphalt patch surface completion, and one well will have a concrete patch surface completion. Asphalt patches will be no larger than 3' x 3' and up to 6" thick, with no roller or grind back needed. The concrete patch will be up to 6' x 6' and up to 6" thick with no curb or gutter work required.
This scope of work and budget does not include replacement of landscape in City parks, medians, etc. that are removed or damaged to access the wells for abandonment.
Monitoring well MW- 5 is located adjacent to privately- owned railroad tracks and will not require coordination with Union Pacific Railroad.
Subtask 1. 4— Documentation
Under Subtask 1. 4, EKI will prepare and submit 43 DWR well destruction reports to DWR and prepare a Groundwater Monitoring Well Abandonment Report for submittal to the RWQCB. This report will document the well abandonment activities, discuss any deviations from the approved Workplan, and include copies of the DWR well destruction reports.

Subtask 2. 2— Mobilization and Well Abandonment
EKI will coordinate with Confluence to mobilize to the site, set up, and oversee well abandonment.
Specifically, under Subtask 2. 2 EKI will:
Mark four wells for Underground Services Alert( USA) and submit tickets at least 72 hours but no more than two weeks prior to destruction activities. Simultaneously post no parking signs for the one well located within or adjacent to the street right-of-way( KMW- 9).
Schedule well destruction inspections with the S1C EHD and direct driller to perform all sealing operations in the presence of the County inspector, unless directed otherwise by the County.
Direct B. A. T. S. Traffic Solutions to coordinate and conduct traffic control for the one well located within or adjacent to the street right- of-way in accordance with the traffic control plan developed under Subtask 2. 1.
Oversee well abandonment by a C- 57 licensed drillervia pressure grouting( 3 wells) or over- drilling 1 well), see Table 1 for details, using methods as described in the approved Workplan.
For the one well located in the street, direct contractor to apply hot asphalt patch in accordance with Encroachment Permit.
Sampling and laboratory analysis of generated wastes for disposal, when appropriate.
Assumptions
The City will be responsible for towing vehicles should they interfere with well abandonment.
Traffic control is dependent upon the site- specific traffic control plans to be developed under Subtask 2. 1, and therefore the budget assumes a two- person crew with two trucks for required traffic control( during both abandonment and surface completion) and one week of traffic control rental items.
The City will be responsible for removal and repair of all fencing that interferes with well abandonment.
218
Greg Gibson environment
City of Lathrop ej I & water
31 May 2023
To the extent possible, soil cuttings and groundwater produced during drilling and grouting operations will be spread at the site. Where spreading is not feasible ( e. g., city street), the materials will be transported to a location as directed by the City for spreading. Should it be necessary, the budget accommodates the possible need to drum, test, and haul soil cuttings and groundwater for disposal at an approved landfill. The budget assumes one composite sample per mobilization will be collected ( total of two samples), analyzed for the standard suite of constituents required for landfill disposal, and the materials will clear all applicable standards for non- hazardous waste disposal. If the composite sample exceeds either California Soluble Threshold Limit Concentration( STLC) or Federal Toxicity Characteristic Leaching Procedure( TCLP) limits for hazardous waste characterization, there will be additional costs associated with disposal not included herein.
A separate mobilization will be required to apply the hot asphalt patch work. Surface completion work is anticipated to take one day, and includes the construction crew, traffic control, and EKI oversight. Surface completion will occur within 48- hours of well abandonment completion.
Three wells will have a dirt surface completion and one well will have a hot asphalt patch surface completion. Asphalt patches will be no larger than 3' x 3' and up to 6" thick, with no roller or grind back needed.

SCHEDULE
Tasks identified above are anticipated to be conducted during the summer and fall of 2023.
Given the uncertainty in landowner responsiveness, private property owner coordination will be initiated immediately upon Notice to Proceed, and transmittal materials are anticipated to be ready for disbursement within 3- weeks. Ongoing coordination with responsive property owners will occur throughout the project duration.
For wells located in the City right- of-way or City parks, abandonment will not occur until encroachment permits and traffic control plans, as required, have been successfully procured.
Subject to C- 57 driller and B. A.T.S. Traffic Solutions availability, well abandonment activities are anticipated to be completed within 10- weeks of procuring all necessary paperwork and permitting. Well abandonment and surface completion construction work is anticipated to take 28 days, assuming adequate site conditions and no access delays. This work assumes two mobilizations per abandonment method, for a total of four well abandonment mobilizations, and two mobilizations for surface completion construction work. Surface completion will occur within 48- hours of well abandonment completion. The estimated days for well abandonment completion may vary depending upon the order of well abandonment, and wells may be re- scheduled between assumed mobilizations depending upon landowner response and coordination.
As- needed City support will last the entire project duration.
The Draft Groundwater Monitoring Well Abandonment Report will be submitted to the City within 30 days of the abandonment completion. The Final Groundwater Monitoring Well Abandonment Report will be completed and submitted to the City 10 days after receiving comments.
COMPENSATION
We propose that compensation for consulting services by EKI be on a time and expense reimbursement basis in accordance with our attached schedule of charges dated 2 January 2022. Based on the SOW described above and the budget in the attached Table 2, per well costs have been calculated and distributed among the funding sources, as shown in Table 3 and Table 1, respectively.

This Design and Construction Funding Agreement ( the " Aqreement") is made and entered into as of November , 2016 (" Effective Date"), by and between the CITY OF LATHROP, a municipal corporation (" CITY"), RIVER ISLANDS DEVELOPMENT, LLC, a California limited liability company (" RID"), RICHLAND DEVELOPERS, INC., a Delaware corporation ("RDI"), SAYBROOK CLSP, LLC, a Califomia limited liability company(" Savbrook"), and LATHROP MOSSDALE INVESTORS, LP, a Califomia limited partnership (" LMI")( excluding CITY, collectively, " DEVELOPERS"). DEVELOPERS and CITY are referred to herein, individually as" pa' and collectively as the " a
rties."
RECITALS
A. The CITY currently operates the existing LCTF with a flow capacity of 1. 0 million gallons per day, or" MGD" in accordance with Waste Discharge Requirements R5- 2016- 0028 approved by the Central Valley Regional Water Quality Control Boa d ( the" ReQional Board") on April 21, 2016 ( the " VUDRs"). Pursuant to the WDRs, the CITY may add new sprayfields and construct additional recycled water storage ponds in accordance with the requirements of the WDRs with approval of the technical reports submitted to the Executive Officer. The CITY also adopted a CEQA Addenda for the incremental increase of up to 3.0 MGD in treatment capacity, raising the total anticipated treatment capacity to approximately 9. 1 MGD. Minor revisions to the WDRs regarding new state water quali#y standards and a new minimum increment for expansion of disposal areas required for the LCTF are expected to be considered by the Regional Board in fall, 2017. New CEQA reyiew is not expected to be required for the revised WDRs.
B. The parties desire to expand the existing LCTF to process up to 2. 5 MGD of treatment capacity by adding a total of 1. 5 MGD to the existing LCTF (the" Phase 2 Exuansion").
C. CITY and DEVELOPERS are parties to a series of sewer funding agreements relating to the Phase 2 Expansion ( coAectively the " Fundinu Aareements"). The Funding Agreements are listed in Schedule 1 attached hereto. To the extent of any conflicts between the Funding Agreements and this Agreement, this Agreement shall control and supersede any such conflicting terms.
D. During the pre- design and design process for the Phase 2 Expansion, additional developers ( listed in Schedule 2 attached) participated in and funded the Phase 2 Expansion.
Following the pre- design process, the additiona! developers withdrew(" Withdrawn Developers") from the Phase2 Expansion. CITY reimbursed (or will reimburse) the Withdrawn Developers for costs they had expended. Accordingly, and once reimbursed, the Withdrawn Developers have no right under this Agreement to receive a ` vill serve" from CITY with respect to any capacity in the Phase 2 Expansion.
E. The parties desire to execute this Agreement to set forth their definitive understanding with respect to the funding of pre- design, design, permitting, programming, construction costs and standby charges, including all outside consultant costs and CITY staff costs relating to, and allocations of capacity in the Phase 2 Expansion as more particularly set forth herein.
NOW THEREFORE, in consideration of the promises and covenants contained herein, the above recitals, and other good and valuable considerafion, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the parties hereto agree as follows:
AGREEMENT
1. Incorporation of Recitals. The parties agree that the foregoing Recitals are true and correct, and are incorporated as a part of this Agreement as if set forth in full herein. i
246
2. Overall Cost: Phase 2 Expansion.
a. Based upon bids received by the CITY and CITY'S calculation of other costs such as permitting and CITY staff charges, the total estimated cost of the Phase 2 Expansion is 26, 374,212 ( the " Expansion Costs"). The parties acknowledge that the estimated Expansion Costs include a 10% contingency( the" Continaenc'), which the parties expressly approve. Of the total estimated Expansion Costs, DEVELOPERS have funded $ 2, 914, 647 pursuant to the Funding Agreements ( the " Funded Expansion Costs"), which amount is net of any amounts reimbursed or to be reimbursed to Withdrawn Developers by CITY. Section 6.a. and Exhibit A illustrate each DEVELOPER'S share of Funded Expansion Costs paid to date, Unfunded Expansion Costs (defined in Section 6.a) and timing of payment. b. Upon receipt of the Unfunded Expansion Costs, the CITY shall use commercially reasonable efforts to complete the Phase 2 Expansion in an timely manner, subject to force majeure delays, including without limitation obtaining all applicable permits and approvals necessary to proceed with the Phase 2 Expansion incluciing an updated WDR to clarify minimum increments for additional storage capacity and address new state water quality standards, as well as the requisite administrative design and pond approvals for the Phase 2 xpansion. Newly proposed spra eld areas and recycled water storage ponds for use in disposal of treated . wastewater from the LCTF inay require environmental review under CEQA.
3. Initial Capacitv Allocations. Subject to the DEVELOPERS' compliance with the terms of this Agreement, CITY will provide DEVELOPERS with initial capacity allocations in the Phase 2 Expansion as set forth in Exhibit B- 1 ( the" Initial Caaacitv Allocations").
4. Restrictions on Reliance or Use of Sewer Allocation bv DEVELOPERS• Other Restrictions. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, the following shall apply to restrict DEVELOPERS' re[iance upon or use of its Sewer Allocation ( defined below):
a. No DEVELOPER shall" rel ( defined below) upon its Initial Capacity Allocation or Reserved Capacity Allocation ( defined in Section 7.a) ( collectively, the " Sewer Allocation") unless and until such DEVELOPER has ( i) obtained fee title to land for all ponds, spra elds and related infrastructure ( or other alternative methods of disposal approved by the CITY and the Regional Board) necessary to use such capacity ( collectively, the " Disposal Infrastructure"), ii) provided CITY with secured funding for construction of Disposal Infrastructure in the form of designated cash on deposit with CITY, security bond, letter of credit, or specifically designated Land Based Financing ( defined below) containing a disbursal mechanism in favor of, and as approved by, CITY, ( iii) offered the Disposal Infrastructure to CITY for dedication ( with conditional right of reversion) and ( iv) secured administrative design approval from the CITY and Regional Board for the design of Disposal Infrastructure ( with items ( i) through ( iv) referred to herein, collectively, as the " Reliance Reauirements"). As used herein, " rel shall mean the ability to rely upon the availability of such capacity for CITY approval of final maps. b. No DEVELOPER shall be entitled to use its Sewer Allocation ( e.g. for CITY approval of building permits) unless and until such DEVELOPER has (i) completed construction of the Disposal Infrastructure, ( ii) issued to CITY as- built drawings documenting the completed Disposal Infrastructure and (iii) incorporated the Disposal Infrastructure into the City's Wastewater Discharge Permit by obtaining Regional Board approval of (Y) a completion report for added storage and disposal and ( Z) an increase in disposal capacity for CITY'S combined treatment facility( collectively, "Use Reauirements").
c. Notwithstanding anything to the contra.ry set forfh in this Agreement, DEVELOPER compliance with any provisions herein regarding Disposal Infrastructure is subject to the terms of any DEVELOPER' S Development Agreement with CITY, the terms of which Development Agreement(s) shall control with respect to compliance with Disposal infrastructure. 2 247
d. The terms of this Agreement and any transfer of Sewer Allocations to DEVELOPERS or third parties under this Agreement are exempt from the City' s Wastewater Treatment Capacity Policy approved by the City Council on May 4, 2015 by Resolution No. 15- 3913 ( the " Transfer Policw'); provided, however, that no transfer to a DEVELOPER or a third party shall be effective unless and until such DEVELOPER or third party has provided to CITY the information required in Schedule 3 attached hereto (" Transfer Information") for CITY approval, which shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed. e. Notwithsfanding anything to the contrary contained herein, including without limitation the provisions of Sections 7 and 9, no DEVELOPER'S Sewer Allocation may be taken away from such DEVELOPER if such DEVELOPER has satisfied all Reliance Requirements for its Sewer Allocation.
f. DEVELOPERS acknowledge and understand that DEVELOPERS cannot use their Sewer Capacity until ( i) final completion and CITY acceptance of.the Phase 2 Expansion and ii) final signoff of the completed Phase 2 Expansion by the Regional Board.
5. Standby Charges.
a. CITY shall provide notice to all DEVELOPERS when CITY begins receiving invoices from Veolia Water West Operating Services, Inc. ("Veolia") for maintenance of the Phase 2 Expansion ( the " Standbv Charqe Notification"). DEVELOPERS' obligation to pay Standby Charges commences upon receipt of the Standby Charge Notification ( the " Standbv TriaaerDate"). The Standby Charge Notification shall include an invoice detailing the Standby Charges that are due from each DEVELOPER. The CITY shall calculate the annual charge pe gallon of capacity in accordance with Exhibit B- 2, which charge will escalate annually at the same rate set forth in the CITY'S separate written agreement with Veolia, which escalation shall not exceed the Consumer Price Index for all urban consumers for the Los Angeles Standard Metropolitan Statistical Area as published by the Bureau of Labor Statistics of the U. S. Department of Labor the" Escalation"), unless otherwise agreed by the parties, in writing. b. DEVELOPERS shall pay the applicable Standby Charges not later than thirty( 30) days after receipt of the Standby Charge Notification. CITY shall provide annual Standby Charge Notifications to each DEVELOPER for future Standby Charges by July 31 S of each year. Annual standby charges are due thirty (30) days after receipt of invoice. Notwithstanding the foregoing, and except with respect to charges by Veolia that have been incorporated into the construction budget for the Phase 2 Expansion, in no event shall DEVELOPERS be responsible for Standby Charges unless the Completion Requirements ( defined in Section 6( c)) have been satisfied. c. DEVELOPERS are responsible for paying Standby Charges for each DEVELOPER'S Sewer Allocation as illustrated in Exhibit B-2 ( including the Escalation, the Standbv Charqes"). The Standby Charges include overcharges due to the higher operational costs associated with a wastewater treatment plant that is larger than currently needed(" Standbv Overcharaes"), also as illustrated in Exhibit B- 2.
d. The pa ties acknowledge that DEVELOPERS' obligation to pay Standby Charges shall terminate as sewer capacity in the Phase 2 Expansion is used. On or about May 1 St of year, the CIT1' shall check the termination date for Standby Charges in the following manner:
i. CITY shall determine the total number of gallons of sewer capacity assigned to rate payers. Solely for purposes of determining the termination date for Standby Charges, each EDU ( equivalent dwelling unit) shall be considered to be assigned 260 gallons per day ("g d") of capacity ( the " Used Sewer Capacitv"). CITY shall provide a copy of the CITY' S Used Sewer Capacity determination within thirty( 30) days after CITY finalizes the determination. ii. If CITY determines through its calculation in subsection ( i) above that the tota! gallons of Used Sewer Capacity has met or exceeded the "Threshold of Flow From New 3 248
Users at Which Standby Charge is No Longer Needed" as shown on Exhibit B- 2, DEVELOPERS' obligation to pay Standby Charges shall terminate and no additional Standby Charges shall be due for any subsequent year. CITY shall provide written notice to DEVELOPERS at the time that DEVELOPERS' obligation to pay Standby Charges ceases.
iii. Subject to the foregoing provisions regarding termination of the obligation to pay Standby Charges, DEVELOPERS shall remain responsible for Standby Charges for any Sewer Allocation applicable to such DEVELOPERS unless and until a DEVELOPER transfers all or a portion of its Allocation with the corresponding obligation to pay Standby Charges, and such transfer has been accepted by CITY in accordance with the provisions of Section 4.d. e. Subject to the provisions of Section 4.f., so long as DEVELOPERS have satisfied Use Requirements for their Sewer Allocation, DEVELOPERS may commence using their Sewer Allocation from and after the Standby Trigger Date.
6. Developer Funding of Phase 2 Expansion.
a. Funded and Unfunded Expansion Costs. Each DEVELOPER'S proportional share of Funded Expansion Costs paid to date and the portion of Expansion Costs that has not yet been funded (" Unfunded Expansion Costs") are set forth in Exhibit A based upon the percentages set forth therein. Except as set forth below, each DEVELOPER shall pay its applicable share of Unfunded Expansion Costs on the Effective Date. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the parties acknowledge that LMI is owed Oversizing Reimbursements (defined in Section 8(c)) that exceed LMI' s portion of Unfunded Expansion Costs( the" LMI Share"). As a result, (i) LMI is not obligated to pay the LMI Share on the Effective Date, and ( ii) CITY shall reduce the Oversizing Reimbursements that are due LMI by the amount of the LMI Share when CITY pays Oversizing Reimbursements to applicable DEVELOPERS under Section 8. b. Use of Continaency; Cost Overruns.
i. Subject to the terms below, the parties agree that the CITY may use the Contingency for any cost overruns for the Phase 2 Expansion without obtaining the prior approval of DEVELOPERS. Notwithstanding the. foregoing, during construction, CITY shall provide DEVELOPERS with written monthly construction updates (" Construction Updates"), which Construction Updates shall incfude an updated completion schedule, a listing of costs incurred to date based upon invoices received by the end of the previous month, copies of all changes orders executed during the applicable month and notification of any pending or anticipated change orders, and other information as reasonably requested by DEVELOPERS. CITY shall endeavor to provide the Construction Updates to DEVELOPERS not later than the 215 of each month, for work completed during the previous month.
ii. If CITY exhausts the Contingency and CITY reasonably believes that it must incur costs in excess of the Contingency to complete the Phase 2 Expansion (" Excess Costs"), CITY shall promptly notify DEVELOPERS of such Excess Costs from time to time, as needed. Subject to Section 6. b. iii, CITY must obtain DEVELOPERS' prior written approval prior to incumng the Excess Costs, which shall be provided, if at all, not later than ten ( 10) business days after receipt of CITY'S notice of Excess Costs together with appropriate backup documentation.
iii. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if CiTY and RID agree to the Excess Costs, A) CITY shall notify all DEVELOPERS of such agreement (" Notice of Aaproval of Excess Costs"),( B) CITY may proceed with the work, and( C) all DEVELOPERS shall pay their respective share of the Excess Costs within ten ( 10) business days after receipt of the Notice of Approval of Excess Costs.
iv. If any DEVELOPER fails to contribute its share of Excess Costs within ten 10) business days after receipt of the Notice of Approval of Excess Costs, then ( Y) the 4 249
contributing DEVELOPERS shall pay the non- contributing DEVELOPER' S portion of Excess Costs, on a pro rata basis, and ( Z) such non- contributing DEVELOPER' S Sewer Allocation shall be reduced and allocated to the contributing DEVELOPERS on a pro rata basis. c. Final Accountinq.
i. CITY shall provide a draft final accounting of all construction costs incuRed by CITY in connection with the Phase 2 Expansion ( the " Final Accountinp") fo DEVELOPERS not later than 90 days after( A) final eompletion and CITY acceptance of the Phase 2 Expansion and ( B) final signoff of the completed Phase 2 Expansion by the Regional Board ( colleetively, Comaletion Requirements"). CITY shall request written confirmation of receipt of the Final Accounting from each DEVELOPER( whether through confirmation of ovemight courier delivery, return receipt request, or other method). The parties acknowledge that the Final Accounting may include Excess Costs in addition to those addressed during construction pursuant to Section 6. b. ii. Each DEVELOPER shall have the right to review and approve the Final Accounting, which review and approval shall be provided, if at all, within 10 business days after DEVELOPERS' receipt of the Final Accounting. If any DEVELOPER has not timely provided its written approval or comments, if any, then such DEVELOPER shall be deemed to have approved the Final Accounting. Subject to the foregoing, CITY and DEVELOPERS will work together to resolve any questions raised regarding the draft Final Accounting prior to it becoming final. iii. If all DEVELOPERS approve the Final Accounting OR if all DEVELOPERS do not approve the Final Accounting but CITY and RID agree to the Final Accounting, ( A) CITY shall notify all DEVELOPERS of such agreement (" Notice of Approval of Final Accountina") and ( B) all DEVELOPERS shall pay their respective share of any Excess Costs as set forth in the Final Accounting within thirty( 30) days after receipt of the Notice of Approval of Final Accounting.
The Notice of Approval of Fina1 Accounting shall attach the approved Final Accounting, the parties' final allocations of the Expansion Costs in accorclance with the provisions of this Section 6, and the final Reserved Capacity Overpayment ( defined in Section 7. b) applicable to each DEVELOPER.
iv. If any DEVELOPER fails to contribute its share of Excess Costs set forth in the Final Accounting within thirty ( 30) days after receipt of the Notice of Approval of Final Accounting, then ( Y) the contributing DEVELOPERS shall pay the non- contributing DEVELOPER'S portion of F ccess Costs, on a pro rata basis, and ( Z) such non- contributing DEVELOPER' S Sewer Allocation shall be reduced and allocated to the contributing DEVELOPERS on a pro rata basis.
v. To the extent that the approved Final Accounting illustrates cost savings e.g. the Phase 2 Expansion was constructed for less than the Expansion Costs contributed by DEVELOPERS, including any savings of Contingency amounts cont ibuted by DEVELOPERS), the CITY shall reimburse to each DEVELOPER its pro rata share of such cost savings within thirty 30) days after CITY'S issuance of the Notice of Approval of Final Accounting.
7. Reserved Capacitv.
a. The parties acknowledge that a portion of the Unfunded Expansion Costs includes the cost of the 0. 4 MGD oversized sewer capacity that is not currently needed by each DEVELOPER and CITY( the" Reserved Capacitv"). Exhibit C- 1 attached hereto illustrates each DEVELOPER' S allocation of the Resenred Capacity(" Reserved Cauacitv Allocation"). Exhibit G2 attached hereto illustrates the overpayment by each DEVELOPER applicab(e to each DEVELOPER' S Reserved Capacity Allocation ( the" Reserved Capacitv Overpavment"). b. Each DEVELOPER understands and agrees that its Reserved Capacity Allocation will not be deemed allocated to such DEVELOPER until such DEVELOPER can demonstrate to CITY that it needs the Reserved Capacity( a) over the next five( 5) years if the Phase 2 Expansion 5 250
construction has not yet been substantially completed or( b) over the next 3.5 years if the Phase 2 Expansion construction is substantially complete (" Demonstration of Need"). The Demonstration of Need shall illustrate DEVELOPER' S then- current projections of its development and sewer capacity requirements and shall include appropriate backup documentation and other information as reasonably requested by CITY. Upon receipt and approval by CITY of the Demonstration of Need, such DEVELOPER' S portion of Reserved Capacity shall be deemed perfected and allocated to such DEVELOPER, subject to the provisions regarding Use Determinations and Reliance Requirements as set forth herein. Any DEVELOPER that has not yet provided a Demonstration of Need for its allocation of Reserved Capacity is defined as an UnperFected Developer." The date that when all Reserved Capacity has been perfected or sold, as applicable, is defined as the" Reserved Caqacitv Exhaustion Date." c. If the CITY or any DEVELOPER that has perfected its right to Reserved Capacity each, a " Perfected Develoaer'') determines that it needs additional sewer capacity from, unperFected Reserve Capacity, CITY or the PerFected Developer( s) may send a notice ( the Reserved Caaacitv Reauest") to all DEVELOPERS. Perfected Developers must provide CfTY with a copy of all Reserved Capacity Requests by Perfected Developers. Any Reserved Capacity Request from a Perfected Developer must include a Demonstration of Need for the additional portion of Reserved Capacity being requested. If any Unperfected Developer cannvt provide an acceptable Demonstration of Need to CITY within thirty ( 30) days after receipt of the Reserved Capacity Request, and subject to the payment provisions below, CITY shall sell the requested portions of Reserved Capacity to ( i) the PerFected Developer that made the Reserved Capacity Request or ( ii) third parties or CITY, as applicable, if the CITY issued the Reserved Capacity Request. These sales of Reserved Capacity shall reduce the remaining alloaations of Reserved Capacity from UnperFected Developers on a pro rata basis. d. The purchase price for the Reserved Capacity shall be equal to( a) the Developer Reimbursement ( defined below) applicable to the Reserved Capacity being purchased plus c) simple interest at the lesser of 10% per annum or the highest rate permitted by law(" InteresY'), accruing on the date that the applicable DEVELOPER funded its share of Expansion Costs ( the Interest Commencement Date").
e. As used herein, the term " Developer Reimbursement" means the Reserved Capacity Overpayment and Standby Overcharges applicable to the portion of Reserved Capacity being sold from that DEVELOPER' S allocation of Reserved Capacity. An example of the Developer Reimbursement is attached hereto as Exhibit D. The City is responsible for collecting the Developer Reimbursement from the purchaser, and paying the Developer Reimbursement to the selling DEVELOPERS, not later than thirty( 30) days after the Reserved Capacity is purchased by CITY, a third party or PerFected Developer.
f. Subject to the provisions of Section 4.e., any DEVELOPER' S Reserved Capacity Allocation, even if perfected, is subject to the Use Determination provisions of Section 9.

9. Use Determinations.
a. Unused Capacitv. The terms of this Section 9 shall apply if any DEVELOPER has failed to satisfy Reliance Requirements for such DEVELOPER' S Sewer Allocation by the last to occur of the Standby Trigger Date and Reserved Capacity Exhaustion Date .( the " Use Determination TriAaer Date"). The portion of a DEVELOPER' S Sewer Allocation as to which such DEVELOPER has not satisfied Reliance Requirements is defined as" Unused Capacitv." b. Unused Capacity Use Determinations.
i) From and after the Use Determination Trigger Date, and upon thirty ( 30) days' prior written notice to all parties, any DEVELOPER may request ( a " Use Determination Reauest") that CITY determine whether any DEVELOPER has failed to satisfy Reliance Requirements for its Sewer Allocation (" Use Determination"). CITY may also independently initiate a Use Determination upon written notice to all parties. The parties acknowledge that there may be multiple Use Determination Requests by individual DEVELOPERS. ii) Any Use Determination Request must ( A) describe the Sewer Allocation desired by the requesting DEVELOPER ( the " Reauested Allocation") and ( B) be accompanied by a Demonstration of Need and proof that the requesting DEVELOPER can satisfy Reliance Requirements for the Requested Allocation.
iii} Within 30 days after receipt of a Use Determination Request ( or initiation of the Use Determination by CITY, as applicable), CITY shall issue a draft summary of Unused Capacity (the" Unused Capacitv Summar') listing the affected DEVELOPERS and applicable Unused Capacity.
iv) Affected DEVELOPERS must respond with any clarifications or objections to the Unused Capacity Summary within 15 days after receipt. If affected DEVELOPERS fail to respond, they will be deemed to have approved the Unused Capacity Summary. v) The final Unused Capacity Summary shall constitute the final " Use Determination and shall be issued by CITY not later than 15 days after receipt of any objections or clarifications.

vi) Non- compliant DEVELOPERS shail have thirty ( 30) days after receipt of the final Use Determination ( the" Use Determination Cure Period") in which to satisfy Reliance Requirements for their Unused Capacity.
vii) If any non- compliant DEVELOPER fails to satisfy Reliance Requirements within the Use Determination Cure Period, then CITY shall notify the parties of such failure and the requesting DEVELOPER( S) ( or CITY, if CITY initiated the Use Determination) may purchase the Requested Capacity, up to the amount set forth in the Use Determination. The requesting DEVELOPER( S) ( or CITY, as applicable) must purchase the Requested Capacity not later than thirty( 30) days after expiration of the Use Determination Cure Period by depositing the applicable purchase price with CITY as set forth below; otherwise, the right to purchase shall expire and be of no further force and effect. The CITY shall identify and sell Unused Capacity on a pro-rata basis from all DEVELOPERS with Unused Capacity, so that Unused Capacity is not taken from just one DEVELOPER. If multiple DEVELOPERS have made Use Determination Requests and there is insufficient Unused Capacity to satisfy all Requested Allocations, the CITY shall allocate Unused Capacity on a pro rata basis ( based upon all non- compliant DEVELOPERS' Unused Capacity) to requesting DEVELOPERS or CITY, as applicable. viii) The purchase price for Unused Capacity shall equa! the Developer Reimbursement applicable to the Unused Capacity plus Interest commencing on the Interest Commencement Date. CITY shall permit DEVELOPERS selling Unused Capacity to participate in the next expansion of the LCTF to the extent of the Unused Capacity sold by such DEVELOPER.
10. Land Based Financina. Any DEVELOPER may petition the CITY to use community facilities district or other land based financing (" Land Based Financinq") to pay its share of Expansion Costs. If the use of Land Based Financing is approved by CITY, then such DEVELOPER' S share of Expansion Costs and any other amounts paid by such DEVELOPER pursuant to applicable Funding Agreements may be reimbursable from proceeds of Land Based Financing. The CITY shall adopt a reimbursement resolution to such effect concurrently with the approval of this / greement; provided, however, that CITY' S adoption of such a reimbursement resolution does not obligate CfTY to issue bonds or act as the lead agency with respect to such Land Based Financing.
