GENERAL MANAGER'S REPORT The General Manager communicated the following: The Water Shutoff Protection Act Last year, the Governor signed into law the Water Shutoff Protection ACT, Health and Safety Code sections 116900 et seq., which requires water agencies to adopt a written policy and provide additional procedural protections for customers prior to terminating residential water service for nonpayment. The Act requires all “urban water suppliers” that are not regulated by the California Public Utilities Commission (CPUC) to comply with the new provisions by February 1, 2020. “Urban Water Suppliers” means a supplier, either publicly or privately owned, providing water for municipal purposes directly or indirectly to more than 3,000 customers or supplying water more than 3,000 acre-feet of water annually. The law requires agencies:

1. Have a written policy on discontinuation of residential water service. 2. Provide the policy in multiple languages including English and any other language spoken by at

least 10% of the residents in the agency’s service area. 3. Post the policy on the agency’s website. 4. Prohibit the shutoff of water service until the bill has been delinquent for 60 days. 5. Provide notice at least seven business days prior to discontinuing residential service for

nonpayment. 6. Comply with additional notice requirements if the agency is unable to make contact with the

customer. 7. Include provisions for not shutting off water for certain customers that meet specified criteria (life

threatening or alternate payment schedule). 8. Cap reconnection fees for restoring water service for certain low-income customers. 9. Provide customers with information on how to restore residential service if it is disconnected for

nonpayment. 10. Post the number of annual discontinuations of service on the agency’s website.

The agency is working with legal counsel to review our existing practices and policies to determine how to comply with the Act and Government Code requirements. Kelly Powerhouse Force Majeure A formal response letter was provided to Pacific Gas and Electric on July 12, 2019 responding to the KPH flood event in February 2017. PG&E submitted a letter in August 2018, stating that as a result of the powerhouse being out of commission and per the power purchase agreement specific to force majeure, the original PPA will be extended for an additional eighteen months on all four hydro assets. SFWPA’s believes any extension of time to the PPA should only be for the single asset (KPH) and not the entire project as PG&E was able to benefit from the operation of the other three hydro units without interruption. We will keep the Board informed as discussions continue on the PPA. Lake Wyandotte Development A meeting was held on July 15th to continue discussions on the training center concept around Lake Wyandotte. The focus would be on STEMS, Aviation and Manufacturing Technology training. The district has requested a more detailed infrastructure plan for review in order to develop a contractual obligation by the investors.

Agency Analytics Workshop As communicated in June’s board meeting, the Agency planned to conduct public workshops on district operations, financials and general agency education. The month of August has filled up with other commitments and as a result, the workshops are scheduled for September 3rd and 10th at 6:00 P.M. in the district boardroom, 2310 Oro Quincy Hwy. Oroville CA 95966.

December 2019 Board Meeting The Regular Board meeting falls on December 24, 2019 (Christmas Eve). Staff is requesting to move the Board meeting up one week to December 17, 2019. FINANCE MANAGER'S REPORT The Finance Manager communicated the following: South Feather Relicensing Consulting Services No invoices have been submitted this month by HDR for relicensing consulting services. Total payments to HDR for relicensing services rendered through April 27, 2019 amount to $5,263,775. Admin HVAC The air conditioning units for the administrative offices had routine maintenance and service performed on them in July. All of the units have reached their expected life of 15 years old or older. Additional assessments on the various units will be performed. Major improvements, if necessary, will be incorporated into the 2020 budget requests. CalPERS Annual Unfunded Accrued Liability Payment The Agency has been invoiced by CalPERS for its annual payment towards its unfunded accrued liability. The required contribution for this year, 2019-20, is $293,704. The required contributions in 2018-19 and 2017-18, were $226,551 and $166,144 respectively. Consumption Reports Water consumption reports for the past nine years and the current year through June, 2019 are included this month for your review. Generally, the 2019 volume and revenue are trending lower than the experience seen in prior years, to be expected given that the 2019 Spring was wetter than normal and as of now, a slightly cooler summer. 2020 Budget The preliminary 2020 Budget calendar is attached for your review. Note that the Finance Committee, comprised of Directors Hickman and Wulbern, is scheduled to review the Proposed Budget on Tuesday, November 19, 2019, with adoption by the full Board at the November 26, 2019 regularly scheduled meeting.

WATER DIVISION MANAGER’S REPORT The Water Division Manager communicated the following: Water Treatment Operations The total MRTP treated water production for the month of June totaled 212 million gallons which is 96% of average for the month (table at right). The 2019 January through June cumulative water demand and production is also at 96% percent of recent average. All drinking water bacteriological requirements were met for the Miners Ranch, Bangor, and Sly Creek water distribution systems. Miners Ranch Water Treatment Plant Improvement Project Agency staff, Overaa, and StanTec coordinated in the development and performance of a contractual requirement Initial Acceptance Test. The goal of the test was to push the improvement project to its design capacity flow rate for as long as possible and document the actual performance compared to the design capacity. The coordinated test required the 24 hour shift work of MRTP operators. On July 8th-11th the MRTP was reoperated to create as large of a hole as possible in the distribution system 7 million gallon storage capacity and then the plant was pushed the maximum design flow rate of 21 million gallons per day and ran for as long as possible. This period was chosen to anticipate seasonally high distribution demand which averaged approximately 7.5mgd. Operations successfully ramped to full flow design capacity twice during the period and reduced back to normal flow conditions. The test documentation is currently being analyzed and compared to the design parameters specified in the contract documents for assurances that the complete project operates as specified. Sustaining 21mgd is not possible at this time so time series data will be extrapolated to consider raw water pumping, clarifier, filter, chemical feed, backwash cycles, PLC/SCADA, and solids handling process performance. We are encouraged that the resulting report will identify successful performance in most areas with some concern of backwash storage limitations that may require mitigation. The MRTP operators performed the unprecedented test and operations with professionalism and competency. The successful operations would not have been possible without the overall coordination managed by John Shipman (MRTP Superintendent). My compliments and gratitude to the proficient MRTP operations staff. Domestic Distribution Operations Water Division staff have been accomplishing normal water system maintenance and operations tasks. Ongoing work projects include domestic service installations, distribution system betterments, and leak repairs. Oakvale Court The Oakvale Court mainline replacement project is complete. Serra Monte Drive, The rebuilding of 8000 sf of road section and paving is complete and D&S paving has invoiced the Agency for the bid price of $62,990 Las Plumas Avenue and Lincoln Boulevard Safe Route to Schools Butte County Public Works has initiated the grant funded project to construct curb, gutter and sidewalk near

PUBLIC PARTICIPATION Doug McMaster introduced himself as a resident on the Foothill Blvd. community line. He is very grateful for the water that he does receive but is here to remind us all that over the years when he first came to live in Wyandotte and the area was formally part of the Oroville Wyandotte Irrigation District that they started out with what was termed at the time as domestic water. As years went by it went to non-chlorinate, then to unsafe and then to raw water. Mr. McMaster communicated that he still has two meters hooked up to his house that he would prefer to keep as evidence of years gone by. He is here to suggest to the board and the agency that we create an impound account for the community line. It would be created for the purpose of finishing the pipeline if we cannot secure the funding, by any private person that may be interested in donating money to the community line project. This is a continual reminder to all of us that the problem is not going to go away otherwise. Mr. McMaster stated that he does not think it is unreasonable and did a word search on the last two board packets to see if there was any mention of the community line. There was no content that he found, which tells him that we are in the squeaky wheel mode and he is here squeakin but he would prefer that we get away from the squeaky wheel mode and go towards the impound account and actually watch something be built. Mr. McMaster is willing to start writing letters asking for money because the community line needs to be fixed. Mr. McMaster communicated that it would be a

good faith action on our part to create an account and he would be willing to donate the $17.50 per month that he pays for the old domestic meter to be directed into that account so that it’s evidence that there is a trail of gone by responsibility of the agency. While it may not be fiscally attractive, it is a responsibility of this agency. Formally, the district took upon and enjoyed the difference in charges between irrigation and domestic for quite some time but walked away from our responsibility. This issue is moral, it is not fiscal. It is right and wrong. There is the opportunity today to do things right. Mr. McMaster shared that he has been on both sides of these tables and he knows what we are up against but also knows what it takes to get things changed and that is noise, demonstrations and signs that force people to do things that are uncomfortable because they have been left behind. He was reminded that we completed a mainline replacement on Oakvale Court. They had good water there and now we have been back to Oakvale Court and actually replaced the line his wife used to be on thirty-three years ago but the line to their house and community line is still unsafe water. Mr. McMaster shared that he does not think his request is unreasonable and does believe our intentions are good and asked the board to please consider an impound account to fund the community line. Ron Fink communicated that it seems like Doug McMaster has a pretty good argument. Getting back to the Forbestown ditch, Mr. Fink received a voicemail from Rath on Wednesday discussing the history and documentation on Railroad commission listed on the wall. Mr. Fink shared that the list on the wall was not generated by him, but is willing to help the district in any way. Mr. Fink is impressed with the amount of work we have done looking into the history and it is a great teacher. Roger Bailey introduced himself and communicated that the meeting minutes from the previous meeting were accurate. Mr. Bailey stated, with respect to finding out what happened in the 2005 negotiations, which was not court proceedings and was some kind of negotiations or arbitration. Who were the people there, what were the points that were made that led to us giving half of the water and half of the power revenue to the neighboring district. Mr. Fink thinks we deserve to know that and somewhere there should be documentation. He does not think it is necessarily out of the question to re-exam. Part two of Mr. Bailey’s communication is that he looks forward to the workshop and perceives that we are starting to proceed in to get the customers to understand why we need a rate increase. The next question is how much is it, how is it formatted and how is it positioned so that it does not cause everybody to start using less water and then we have a feedback loop that we can’t manager. Mr. Bailey is suggesting we consider a change to the service charge and cited examples from other districts. Looking at past board data Mr. Bailey believes that the district is trying to take a first step and increase revenues by $500K a year. This could be accomplished by raising the service fee by five or six dollars a month for the entire year. Mr. Bailey shared that we went the wrong direction a few years ago by reducing the rates and then touted that we had the cheapest and best water, full well knowing that it was too cheap. The purpose of these workshops is to try and get customers to understand why we need an increase. Mr. Bailey shared that he thinks it is important for all the directors to be there as they are the ambassadors. Charles Sharp introduced himself as from Oregon House and said he would like SFWPA and NYWD to get together and talk about the agreement but the water district refuses to do so. Mr. Sharp communicated that he thinks YWA is behind why NYWD will not meet with SFWPA because they are trying to support the water district to build a pipe based on the 2005 contract which would be restrictive and not able to handle all the water that is available to the water district which he thinks is about 23,700 acre feet. They want to make a pipe based on the 2005 contract and the YWA is supporting them into doing that. As long as YWA is backing it up, NYWD with help for funding they do not seem to be interested in reaching out to South Feather about the agreement. Mr. Sharp shared that when he spoke to a couple of board members on the

Page 10: SOUTH FEATHER WATER & POWER AGENCY · filter, chemical feed, backwash cycles, PLC/SCADA, and solids handling process performance. We are encouraged that the resulting report will

8

Yuba Water Agency they get very upset when the idea is mentioned that they are trying to get some part of that water NYWD has now because there is a time limit on beneficial use of that water with the state water control board as part of the 2005 agreement. There is some time limit that North Yuba has to provide beneficial use which means building a conveyance system to do that and they have not met that agreement. So now, they have some legal case with the water quality control board on that. For example, if they go to pipe that is too restrictive then what happens to that excess water part of which you are using know to run your hydroelectric plant. Is Yuba Water looking at trying to get that water for their use? These are questions that Mr. Sharp is trying to search and find out and all the pieces are coming together, it looks like this is what is happening and if the YWA would step back and not support the pipe as it is currently engineered until South Feather and North Yuba get a chance to work out what might come from talking about the 2005 agreement. This is how Mr. Sharp sees it and going to all the YWA board meetings and generally making a nuisance of himself there and trying to bring up these issues. Mr. Sharp continued by asking stating that he is working on a water diagram and asked the board if the GM could help him out. Alton Wright introduced himself and communicated that he lives in Forbestown on the Yuba County side and did not really expect to come and speak today but a few things that Mr. Sharp had just said made him think he should probably speak. Mr. Wright thanked South Feather for writing a request to North Yuba several months ago to try and open up an avenue and have a conversation. Mr. Wright stated that one thing Charles had very spot on is that Yuba Water Agency is way involved you probably already know and as long as they are pulling the puppet strings and as long as the 2005 contract is seen as a shield for North Yuba to do their shenanigans, nothing is going to change. They had the opportunity now twice to put on their agenda and Mr. Sharp asked the board if they had seen this communication and the board just kind of shrugged their shoulders. Mr. Wight stated that they have a very abnormal water district and he thinks on behalf of quite a few residents, customers, and taxpayers within the North Yuba Sphere of Influence we need to come up there to a board meeting and actually make the verbal invitation and see what really happens. Mr. Wright continued by saying that he thinks technology, letters and e-mails are just not going to make this move forward and it may need to be a forced face to face to see if there are really serious. As long as YWA is being the puppeteer, they may need to be at the table also just as a consideration. Lew Neal spoke and stated, I heard “we are waiting”. It’s been a month and a half or two months since the invitation was extended. Ms. Neal said that waiting is a very gentle word and that you are being ignored and will continue to be ignored as they have been with all these issues. That is why are asking you to show up at the board meeting. It is easy to deny an e-mail, it is easy to deny anything that is in the opaque world. When you are in the physical world, that is when things get done. DIRECTORS’ REPORTS John Starr shared that the water division crew was very good to work with and appreciated their efforts on new construction connections. Director Starr also stated the Little Grass Valley Reservoir looks good and hope we can keep that water level. BUSINESS Delinquent Accounts to be added to the 2019-2020 Taxes The Board approved adoption of resolution 19-7-1, authorizing 9 accounts, for a total of $1,483.46 including fees, be added to the 2019-2020 Butte County tax roll.

TO: Board of Directors FROM: Steve Wong, Finance Division Manager DATE: August 21, 2019 RE: General Information (regarding matters not scheduled on the agenda) 8/27/19 Board of Directors Meeting South Feather Relicensing Consulting Services No invoices have been submitted this month by HDR for relicensing consulting services. Total payments to HDR for relicensing services rendered through April 27, 2019 amount to $5,263,775. 2017 Winter Storm Projects FEMA/CalOES has notified the Agency of the closeout of two of the February, 2017 projects, PW 1282, the Kelly Ridge Powerhouse insurance deductible and PW 1337, Forbestown Diversion Dam lower level outlet valve. CalPERS SFWPA was selected as one of sixty CalPERS public agencies for an audit of its reporting of Temporary Upgrade Pay (TUP). The audit took place in the Agency offices on August 7, 8 and 9. Historically, SFWPA has reported to CalPERS virtually all employee pay beyond the regular base bi-weekly salary as TUP. From previous discussions with CalPERS staff and going through this field audit, staff now understands that CalPERS wants these different forms of compensation reported to them as regular pay by individual for each pay period (for retroactive pay situations) or in a “special assignment” category (for Sunday and Lead worker pay), not as TUP as has been the practice. A draft of the audit observations and findings will be provided to SFWPA for review and comment and a final report summarizing the findings from all sixty audits will ultimately be posted to the CalPERS website. It does not appear that this audit will have any financial impact on the Agency or its employees. While outside the scope of this audit, the CalPERS review of the current MOUs uncovered some clean-up and clarification matters that will be talked about in the next round of MOU discussions. Schedule of Employee Pay Ranges The attached 2019 Schedule of Employee Pay Ranges has been revised to include the new classification and pay range for Regulatory Compliance Coordinator.

TO: Board of Directors FROM: Matt Colwell, Water Division Manager DATE: August 22, 2019 RE: General Information (regarding matters not scheduled on the agenda) 8/27/19 Board of Directors Meeting Water Treatment Operations

The total MRTP treated water production for the month of July totaled 266 million gallons which is average based on the recent 10 year period for the month (table at right). The 2019 January through July cumulative water demand and production is at 96% percent of recent average for the period. All drinking water bacteriological requirements were met for the Miners Ranch, Bangor, and Sly Creek water distribution systems. Domestic Distribution Operations Water Division staff have been accomplishing normal water system maintenance and operations tasks. Ongoing work projects include domestic service installations, distribution system betterments, and leak repairs. Las Plumas Avenue and Lincoln Boulevard Safe Route to Schools Butte County Public Works has initiated the grant funded project to construct curb, gutter and sidewalk near Las Plumas High and Oakdale Heights schools. Distribution crews have relocated and cleared all utility conflicts with the planned improvements. Rockridge and Coventry Drive Pipeline Replacement Project #2019-54a Distribution crews will begin working on the 2019 budgeted capital improvement project on Rockridge and Coventry Drive Pipeline Replacement Project. The aged pipe and old galvanized services have experienced multiple leaks and are subject to failure. The estimated $130,000 project consists of replacing approximately 2,800 feet of 1950’s era 4 and 6-inch asbestos concrete pipe and the appurtenant services.

Projects Little Grass Valley Dam Downstream Water Flow Monitoring Station SF-3

• Agency has begun fabrication and installation of new replacement water flow monitoring station located at Little Grass Valley Dam (LGVD) downstream location. The station, designated SF-3, was destroyed during the 2018/19 storm season when a large drift of snow above the station fell on to the structure. The Agency expects to restore operation of SF-3 in 4 to 6 weeks. The station provides real-time downstream fishwater flow readings as required by the FERC License, and is an activation trigger for the LGVD Emergency Action Plan.

Forbestown Diversion Dredging, Sluice Gate & Trash Rack Repair • Stillwater Sciences analysis of FDD sediment samples were finalized July 30, 2019 and sent to

USFS for review. A ‘Special Use’ permit was granted by USFS July 31, 2019 for storage site of removed dredge material.

• Dredging process began Aug 5th to remove material around Trash Rack for divers to evaluate extent of damage to structure and Sluice Gate system. Project is running on schedule and budget to date.

TO: Board of Directors FROM: Rath Moseley, General Manager DATE: August 18, 2019 RE: General Information (regarding matters not scheduled on the agenda) 8/27/19 Board of Directors Meeting Division 2 Director Seat The district received one application for the Division 2 Director vacancy. The Board will have the opportunity to interview and appoint the applicant at the September 24, 2019 regular board meeting. Water Service Intertie In recent months, discussions on a potential domestic water intertie have been taking place with a neighboring water provider. The expectation for SFWPA is to have a minimum guaranteed revenue commitment and water draw forecast range. This agreement would be a cost plus model to cover all costs associated with the production and delivery of domestic treated water. Staff and counsel are working through revisions of the proposed agreement and expect to have something for consideration to the board at October’s meeting. Salmon Festival Sponsorship SFWPA was asked to be a sponsor for the annual salmon festival. As a public agency, we are prohibited to use funds unless they offer a benefit to the customer base within the district. I stated that I would bring the request to the board for discussion. One idea that has been considered over the years is to have a mobile water filling station just for events like this, where the agency can provide free drinking water during outdoor events to keep participants hydrated. Many who attend venues like the salmon festival are customers of the district so the investment would be a direct benefit to the served community.

Participation Agreements During the month of August staff has encountered two separate title call transfers that had “Participation Agreement & Promissory Note” documents dating back to 1992. In both cases, the agreements involved variances from the District’s mainline extension policy in order to receive treated water. Each APN owner would pay a portion of the extension of the cost and if the district never constructed a mainline extension then the owner would be refunded the costs paid. Staff is evaluating if there is the likelihood of performing extensions in these areas and in one case, it looks unlikely an extension would be constructed.
