Assumed Funding Estimated Total Project Cost $14,970,000 Less Federal, State & Local Grants $ 5,000,000 Local Utility District Assessments $ 9,970,000 16
Property Assessment Assumptions • Individual parcels will be assessed for benefit received from sewer service • Assessment for any parcel will not exceed the benefit received • Initial Sewer Service Area = about 120 tax parcels • Final Assessments will differ from Preliminary Assessments • Final will use actual costs and funding, not estimates 17
Conceptual Assessment Methodology • Approach 1 – Assessments ratio to special benefit • Total Special Benefit for All Parcels • Compare Total Benefit with Total to be Assessed • Ratio Parcel Assessment • Special Benefit x Ratio 18
Conceptual Assessment Methodology (cont.) • Approach 2 – Assessment computed from unit costs • Define Unit Cost for Each Project Component • Identify Component Units for each parcel • Assessment = Sum of Component Units x Unit Price Verify that result is less than Special Benefit 19
Estimated Range of Typical Preliminary Assessments Single Family Home on small lot $13,000 to $22,000 Single Family Home on large lot $25,000 to $50,000 Small Commercial Business $18,000 to $75,000 Large Commercial Business $80,000 to $200,000 Vacant & Undeveloped Acreage $100,000 to $150,000 per acre 20
Suggest LUD Formation Process • Property Owners request sewer service • Public Hearing to discuss providing sewers • If sufficient interest, PUD Commissioners adopt Resolution of Intent to Form an LUD • Apply for funding from various federal and state sources • Prepare preliminary assessment roll • Property Owner petition for LUD • LUD Formation Hearing • If sufficient interest, PUD Commissioners form LUD 21

Letter of Concurrence Objective • EPA must issue a letter of concurrence before DOE can approve Facilities Plan or release funding • Concurrence: Project ‘Not Likely to Affect’ • Listed or Threatened Species • Provides ‘Net Environmental Benefit’ 24
Federal Consultation Process • Letter of Concurrence follows Consultation with Federal Agencies • Review of Facilities Plan with NEPA, Biological Assessment, Hydrogeological Evaluation and Archeological Study • Reviewing Agencies besides EPA include: • US Fish and Wildlife • Corps of Engineers • NOAA 25
Potential Environmental Concerns • Nitrates: • nitrification – denitrificantion reduction to <5 mg/L • Phosphates: • filtered by soil/vegetation from percolation basin to Matriotti Creek • Temperature: • reuse water cooled by fountain, percolation & vegetation shade • Pharmaceuticals: • SBR will remove more than existing onsite systems. MBR will remove more than SBR because of longer solids holding. Residual will be below medicinal dose & not affect humans. May still be a concern for aquatic life. 26
