To the Board of Directors of
Central Contra Costa Sanitary District
Martinez, California
(925) 476 -9930 efax
We have audited the financial statements of Central Contra Costa Sanitary District ( CCCSD) for the
year ended June 30, 2012, and have issued our report thereon dated October 4, 2012. Professional
standards require that we provide you with the following information related to our audit.
Compliance with CCCSD Investment Policy Performance Evaluation
We have completed a performance evaluation of the District's investment objective for the fiscal year
ended June 30, 2012, and have verified that the objective of achieving a market- average rate of return is
being realized.
The fiscal 2012 targeted return on 90 -day T -Bills was 0.05 %. The actual rate of return for the District
was 0.43 %. Based on this comparison, the Board's desired objective has been realized.
Our Responsibility under U.S. Generally Accepted Auditing Standards
As stated in our engagement letter dated April 19, 2012, our responsibility, as described by professional
standards, is to express opinions about whether the financial statements prepared by management with
your oversight are fairly presented, in all material respects, in conformity with U.S. generally accepted
accounting principles. Our audit of the financial statements does not relieve you or management of your
responsibilities.
Other Information in Documents Containing Audited Financial Statements
The auditor's responsibility for other information in documents containing the Central Contra Costa
Sanitary District financial statements does not extend beyond the financial information. As such, the
auditor does not have the obligation to perform any procedures to coordinate other information in these
documents. However, the auditor reserves the right to read and comment on the other information in the
documents.
Planned Scope and Timing of the Audit
We performed the audit according to the planned scope and timing previously communicated to you in
our meetings or correspondence about planning matters.
Simnificant Audit Findings
Qualitative Aspects ojAccounting Practices
Management is responsible for the selection and use of appropriate accounting policies. In accordance
with the terms of our engagement letter, we advise management about the appropriateness of accounting
policies and their application. The significant accounting policies used by Central Contra Costa Sanitary
District are described in Note 1 to the financial statements.
prof?ssionat. persom4zed service
No new accounting policies were adopted and the application of existing policies was not changed
during fiscal 2012. We noted no transactions entered into by the governmental unit during the year for
which there is a lack of authoritative guidance or consensus. All significant transactions have been
recognized in the financial statements in the proper period.
Accounting estimates are an integral part of the financial statements prepared by management and are
based on management's knowledge and experience about past and current events and assumptions about
future events. Certain accounting estimates are particularly sensitive because of their significance to the
financial statements and because of the possibility that future events affecting them may differ
significantly from those expected.
The most sensitive estimate affecting the financial statements was Note 10 - Other Post - Employment
Benefits (OPEB). The District's actuarial report (updated June 30, 2010) estimated the District's OPEB
liability to be $80,933,000. This estimate is funded over 30 years based on various actuarial
assumptions.
In the fiscal year ended June 30, 2010, the District provided a $986,000 loss provision for the Prop IA
loan. This allowance was provided due to the California budget issues and general economy. There was
no change in this allowance for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2012 -Note 3.
Also, the permit counter receivable is estimated on the books to be $214,000 -Note 3.
Difficulties Encountered in Performing the Audit
We encountered no significant difficulties in dealing with management in performing and completing
our audit.
Corrected and Uncorrected Misstatements
Professional standards require us to accumulate all known and likely misstatements identified during the
audit, other than those that are trivial, and communicate them to the appropriate level of management.
The attached schedule discloses one uncorrected misstatement of the financial statements. Management
has determined that its effect is immaterial to the financial statements taken as a whole.
In addition, none of the misstatements detected as a result of audit procedures and corrected by
management were material, either individually or in the aggregate, to the financial statements taken as a
whole.
Disagreements with Management
For purposes of this letter, professional standards define a disagreement with management as a financial
accounting, reporting, or auditing matter, whether or not resolved to our satisfaction, that could be
significant to the financial statements or the auditor's report. We are pleased to report that no such
disagreements arose during the course of our audit.
Management Representations
We have requested certain representations from management that are included in the management
representation letter dated October 4, 2012.
Management Consultations with Other Independent Accountants
In some cases, management may decide to consult with other accountants about auditing and accounting
matters, similar to obtaining a "second opinion" on certain situations. If a consultation involves
application of an accounting principle to the governmental unit's financial statements or a determination
of the type of auditor's opinion that may be expressed on those statements, our professional standards
require the consulting accountant to check with us to determine that the consultant has all the relevant
facts. To our knowledge, there were no such consultations with other accountants.
Other Audit Findings or Issues
We generally discuss a variety of matters, including the application of accounting principles and
auditing standards, with management each year prior to retention as the District's auditors. However,
these discussions occurred in the normal course of our professional relationship and our responses were
not a condition to our retention.
This information is intended solely for the use of the Board of Directors and management of Central
Contra Costa Sanitary District and is not intended to be and should not be used by anyone other than
these specified parties.

CERTIFIED PUBLIC ACCOUNTANTS
To Board of Directors and Management
of Central Contra Costa Sanitary District
Martinez, California
(925) 476 -9930 efax
In planning and performing our audit of the financial statements of the Central Contra Costa Sanitary
District as of and for the year ended June 30, 2012, in accordance with auditing standards generally
accepted in the United States of America, we considered the District's internal control over financial
reporting (internal control) as a basis for designing our auditing procedures for the purpose of expressing
our opinions on the financial statements, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the
effectiveness of the District's internal control. Accordingly, we do not express an opinion on the
effectiveness of the District's internal control.
Our consideration of internal control was for the limited purpose described in the preceding paragraph
and was not designed to identify all deficiencies in internal control that might be significant deficiencies
or material weaknesses and, therefore, there can be no assurance that all such deficiencies have been
identified. However, as discussed below, we identified several deficiencies in internal control that we
consider to be significant.
A deficiency in internal control exists when the design or operation of a control does not allow
management or employees, in the normal course of performing their assigned functions, to prevent, or
detect and correct misstatements on a timely basis. A material weakness is a deficiency, or combination
of deficiencies in internal control, such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement
of the entity's financial statements will not be prevented, or detected and corrected on a timely basis. We
did not identify any deficiencies in internal control that we consider to be material weaknesses.
A significant deficiency is a deficiency, or a combination of deficiencies, in internal control that is less
severe than a material weakness, yet important enough to merit attention by those charged with
governance. We consider the following deficiencies in the District's internal control to be significant
deficiency so far as the financial statements:
1. Continuity of Personnel
As part of an audit, auditors do many risk assessments including the assessment of
environmental controls, which is defined as the tone of management toward controls. We
deemed the environmental controls to be very good. That said, this past year has been a year with
an unusual amount of change, including numerous management -level retirements. We observed
some transitional risk as various long time employees retired and their positions were replaced
with other long time employees as well as some new hires. We would expect fiscal 2013 to be a
difficult one as job responsibilities are further delineated and inherit risk increases.
We recommend the board monitor next year's ongoing transition in the accounting department
since it serves as a key role in the success and management of the District.
professional. personalized service Pagel of 3
2. General Ledger System
The auditors have worked with the current general ledger for a several years. The system is
difficult to work with for the auditors. It is outdated and clunky. The accounting department
works well with the system but efficiency is lost as accounting staff members sometimes must
use manual workarounds such as pivot tables for inventory and the creation of special reports by
the staff to download trial balances. We feel a newer system would enhance the efforts of the
newer staff and auditors to drill down into accounts more efficiently. Efficiencies would be
gained by both staff and others using or relying on the system.
We understand the District is moving to replace the current general ledger system. We
recommend that the District do so as soon as the accounting department feels they are ready to
implement a new system. We further recommend any system conversion be implemented at the
beginning of a new fiscal year and the District run the conversion parallel to the old
HTE /SunGard system.
3. Permit Counter
The permit counter receivable process was unknowingly a material problem for many years. The
extent of the problem was not known by the accounting department or its Districts auditors.
Although we believe that overall, the District has strong environmental controls, the permit
collection process and its accounts receivable system module were most likely known at some
level of management.
We recommend that all District management involve the accounting department management at
all levels of internal controls surrounding accrual accounting issues and /or policy. Accounting
management is best suited to make judgments concerning the significance to the District's
financial processes. Furthermore, we agree with outside consultants that the District's primary
control would be requiring homeowners to show evidence of obtaining a sewage connection
permit prior to issuing their City permit.
OTHER MATTERS
Legal Costs
As part of our audit, we consult with staff about pending legal problems and review attorney
letters to insure that they are properly reserved in the general ledger. At the end of the fiscal year,
management was working to determine the total accrual needed for legal costs due to various
legal issues the District is currently faced with, but it was unable to accurately estimate the
amount during the year end closing process. As part of our audit, we passed a fairly significant
journal entry of slightly over $80,000. The journal entry was not recorded in the audited
financials because it would have complicated the accounting process in relation to the District's
agreement with the City of Concord.
We recommend that accounting book all legal invoices (or book an estimate for invoices not
received) as part of the year end close to help avoid reconciliation issues with the attorney letters.
Furthermore, if applicable, we recommend accounting be updated on risk management estimates
for the accrual of necessary legal reserves.
Inventory
We have great respect for the accuracy of the inventory counts we do on a rotation basis.
However, in the current year we had some fairly significant discrepancies regarding low cost
Page 2 of 3
items with high turnover (such as safety glasses) which required us to perform some additional
test counts. We have been informed by Warren Gaines, Material Services Supervisor that as a
result of our audit he is instituting a procedure to perform more frequent test counts on the high
turnover items.
We recommend that the plan to perform more frequent test counts on the high turnover items
should be fully implemented and also recommend that procedures for issuing out inventory items
to various departments be tightened to eliminate items being released to departments but not
recorded.
This letter is intended to be constructive. It is not intended to diminish the great job that staff has done
this past year as well as their efforts during the audit.
This communication is intended solely for the information and use of management, the Board of
Directors, and others within the organization, and is not intended to be and should not be used by anyone
other than these specified parties.

INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT
To the Board of Directors of
Central Contra Costa Sanitary District
Martinez, California
We have audited the accompanying financial statements of the Central Contra Costa Sanitary District as of
and for the year ended June 30, 2012, as listed in the table of contents. These financial statements are the
responsibility of the District's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial
statements based on our audit.
We conducted our audits in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States
of America and the State Controller's Audit Requirements for California Special Districts. Those
standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the
financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis,
evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes
assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as
evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable
basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the
financial position of the Central Contra Costa Sanitary District as of June 30, 2012, and the changes in
financial position and cash flows thereof for the year then ended, in conformity with accounting principles
generally accepted in the United States of America, as well as accounting systems prescribed by the
California State Controller's office for Special Districts.
Accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America require that the Management's
Discussion and Analysis be presented to supplement the basic financial statements. Such information,
although not a part of the basic financial statements, is required by the Governmental Accounting
Standards Board, who considers it to be an essential part of financial reporting for placing the basic
financial statements in an appropriate operational, economic, or historical context. We have applied
certain limited procedures to the required supplementary information in accordance with auditing
standards generally accepted in the United States of America, which consisted of inquiries of management
about the methods of preparing the information and comparing the information for consistency with
management's responses to our inquiries, the basic financial statements, and other knowledge we obtained
during our audit of the basic financial statements. We do not express an opinion or provide any assurance
on the information because the limited procedures do not provide us with sufficient evidence to express an
opinion or provide assurance.
professional, personalized. service.
Our audit was conducted for the purpose of forming opinions on the financial statements that collectively
comprise Central Contra Costa Sanitary District's financial statements as a whole. Management's
Discussion and Analysis, budgetary comparison information, and supplemental information on pages 38 —
41 are presented for purposes of additional analysis and are not a required part of the financial statements.
Management's Discussion and Analysis, budgetary comparison information, and supplemental
information on pages 38 — 41 are the responsibility of management and were derived from and relate
directly to the underlying accounting and other records used to prepare the financial statements. The
information has been subjected to the auditing procedures applied in the audit of the financial statements
and certain additional procedures, including comparing and reconciling such information directly to the
underlying accounting and other records used to prepare the financial statements or to the financial
statements themselves, and other additional procedures in accordance with auditing standards generally
accepted in the United States of America. In our opinion, the information is fairly stated in all material
respects in relation to the basic financial statements as a whole.

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS
This section of the District's annual financial report presents an analysis of the District's financial
performance during the fiscal year ended June 30, 2012. This information is presented in conjunction
with the audited financial statements, which follow this report.
FINANCIAL HIGHLIGHTS
The District's 2011 -12 financial highlights are listed below. These results are discussed in more detail
later in the report.
• The District's total ending net position increased by $3.8 million or 0.61% in 2011 -12 when
compared to fiscal year 2010 -11; when comparing 2011 -12 to 2009 -10, net position has
increased by $5.2 million or 0.83 %. This is mainly due to capital project asset additions.
• Total revenues in 2011 -12 increased by $2.1 million or 2.87% when compared to 2010 -11; when
comparing 2011 -12 to 2009 -10, total revenue has increased by $2.4 million or 3.21 %. The total
SSC rate increased by 9.6 %; a larger portion of the internal SSC allocation was shifted from
Operating Revenue to Capital Contributions.
• Total 2011 -12 expenses increased by $6.0 million or 7.36% compared to 2010 -11; when
comparing 2011 -12 to 2009 -10, total expenses increased by $8.0 million or 10.10 %. This is
mainly due to higher cost of total labor and technical services for temporary staff.
• Capital Contributions increased in 2011 -12 compared to 2010 -11 by $6.4 million or 69.90 %.
Capital Contributions decreased by $ -0.3 million or -1.95% comparing 2011 -12 to 2009 -10. The
increases in 2011 -12 were due to the SSC rate increase (capital allocation) and higher connection
fees when comparing 2011 -12 to 2010 -11. The volatile housing and construction markets caused
swings in connection fee revenue (Connection fee revenue of $5.7 million in 2011 -12, $3.5
million in 2010 -11 and $7.1 million in 2009 -10).

Total Net Position

$ 621,451,212
The total net position of the District increased from $621.5 million in 2009 -10 to $622.8 million in
2010 -11 and to $626.6 million in 2011 -12. The increase in net position over the 3 -year period totals
$5.2 million and is the result of the combination of net income and capital contributions; comparing
2011 -12 to 2010 -11 net position increases by $3.8 million.
By far the largest portion of the District's net position (87.7% percent) reflects its investment in capital
assets (e.g. land, buildings, machinery, equipment, intangible assets, and sewer line infrastructure), less
any related debt used to acquire those assets that is still outstanding. The District uses these capital
assets to provide services to its ratepayers; consequently, these assets are not available for future
spending. Although the District's investment in its capital assets is reported net of debt, it should be
noted that the funds needed to repay this debt must be provided from other sources, since the capital
assets themselves cannot be used to liquidate these liabilities. There is currently $4.7 million restricted
for debt service. The remaining balance of $72.4 million in unrestricted net position may be used to
meet the District's ongoing obligations to its ratepayers and creditors. The unrestricted net position may
also be used for payment of long -term unfunded liabilities.

In 2011 -12, operating revenues increased by $1.7 million or 2.87% compared to 2010 -11 and increased
by $2.8 million or 4.73% comparing 2011 -12 to 2009 -10. Total non - operating revenue increased in
2011 -12 compared to 2010 -11 by $0.4 million or 2.86% and decreased by -$0.4 million or -2.92%
comparing 2011 -12 to 2009 -10. The change in total revenue resulted in an increase of $2.1 million or
2.87% comparing 2011 -12 to 2010 -11 and increased by $2.4 million or 3.21% comparing 2011 -12 to
2009 -10. There was a 9.6% SSC rate increase in 2011 -12 but no SSC rate increases occurred in 2010 -11
and 2009 -10. Property Tax revenue has basically remained flat for the 3 -year period due to housing
values remaining low.
E
In 2011 -12, total expenses increased by $6.0 million or 7.36% compared to 2010 -11. Comparing 2011-
12 to 2009 -10, total expenses were $8.0 million or 10.10% higher. Increases are mainly due to higher
labor and benefit costs along with technical services for temporary staff. Labor costs increased due to
employee benefit costs (primarily pension and healthcare costs), cost -of- living adjustments, merit
increases, and filling of vacant positions. Depreciation expense increased due to new capital additions.
Non - Operating Expense is mainly driven by debt service interest expense. Total income before capital
contributions went from -$6.0 million in 2009 -10 to -$7.2 million in 2010 -11 and -$11.6 million in
2011 -12.
Total capital contributions in 2011 -12 were $15.4 million compared to $9.1 million in 2010 -11 and
$15.7 million in 2009 -10. This was mainly due to higher customer contributions (SSC) in 2011 -12 due
to the 9.6% rate increase, shift of the internal SSC revenue allocation, and volatility in connection fees
due to the fluctuation of the housing and construction markets. Connection fees for one large complex
were received in 2009 -10 which contributed to the $15.7 million in revenue that year. The total change
in net position decreased by -$6.0 million or - 61.06% when comparing 2011 -12 to 2009 -10.
CAPITAL ASSETS
Capital assets include the District's entire major infrastructure including wastewater treatment facilities,
sewers, land, buildings, pumping stations, vehicles, intangible assets and furniture and equipment
exceeding our capitalization policy limit of $5,000, net of depreciation. As of June 30, 2012, the
District's investment in capital assets totaled $597.7 million, which is an increase of $4.2 million or
0.71 % over the capital asset balance of $593.5 million at June 30, 2011. Capital Assets increased by
$10.9 million or 1.86% comparing 2011 -12 to 2009 -10. A comparison of the District's capital assets

The major reasons for the increase in capital assets, net of depreciation, of $4.2 million from 2010 -11 to
2011 -12 and $10.9 million from 2009 -10 to 2011 -12, are as follows:
• Treatment plant infrastructure renovations, upgrades, equipment, and improvements increased by
$4.9 million comparing 2011 -12 to 2010 -11 and $17.0 million comparing 2011 -12 to 2009 -10.
• Buildings increased by $3.2 million comparing 2011 -12 to 2010 -11 and $13.3 million comparing
2011 -12 to 2009 -10. The Walnut Creek Collection System Operations new building
construction substantially completed cost of $11.5 million was capitalized in 2010 -11 and $3.2
million more was capitalized in 2011 -12.
• Sewer pipe ongoing renovations, pumping station improvements, and contributed sewer lines
increased by $14.2 million comparing 2011 -12 to 2010 -11 and $19.3 million comparing 2011 -12
to 2009 -10.
• All other asset categories, including construction in progress, increased by $2.0 million
comparing 2011 -12 to 2010 -11 and deceased by $2.0 million comparing 2011 -12 to 2009 -10.
• Capital Asset increases are offset by an increased subtraction of accumulated depreciation of
$20.0 million comparing 2011 -12 to 2010 -11 and $36.7 million comparing 2011 -12 to 2009 -10
due to our increasing capital asset investment and its associated depreciation expense.

DEBT ADMINISTRATION
The District has the following outstanding debt as of June 30, 2012:
Revenue Bonds
Water Reclamation Loan
$ 47,200,000
1,027,238
$ 48,227,238
See Note 6 in the audited financial statements.
ECONOMIC AND OTHER FACTORS
The Federal and State of California economies still struggle to recover from the 2008 recession. Federal
economic challenges continue and there is added uncertainty due to the 2012 Presidential election
outcome not being known at this time. The housing market is still in recovery and continues to impact
user fees. Fiscal year 2011 -12 resulted in the fourth consecutive year to end with a deficit for the State
of California. Pension reform is in the spotlight and the governor's 2012 -13 Budget Package relies on
voters passing Proposition 30, which temporarily increases state sales and income taxes.
7
Items impacting the District are:
• Employee Memorandum of Understanding contract negotiations; although the current contracts
end as of April 17, 2012 negotiations are still ongoing
• Employee benefits may be reduced due to the negotiations outcome in which employees may pay
a larger share of benefit costs. Also, current and future legislation impacting public employee
pensions is in play, also calling for higher employee contributions and lower pensions by
eliminating spiking. Also, a larger than number of anticipated early retirements may occur
depending on negotiated and legislated changes to public employee salary and benefits.
• Regulatory requirements becoming more stringent, causing the District to spend more on
compliance, both for operations and maintenance costs and capital projects.
• Anticipated continuation of the slow recovery and associated impacts to connection and other
fees.
• Continued low interest rates negatively impact interest earnings for District temporary
investments as well as OPEB trust and pension plan assets.
In addition to making efforts to reduce spending and improve process efficiencies, the District has the
ability to raise the Sewer Service Charge to meet our long -term commitments. The District has a
Standard and Poors AAA rating, and can obtain bond financing if necessary.

CENTRAL CONTRA COSTA SANITARY DISTRICT
Notes to Financial Statements

1. DESCRIPTION OF DISTRICT AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING
POLICIES
Reporting ntity
The Central Contra Costa Sanitary District, a special district and a public entity established under the
Sanitary District Act of 1923, provides sewer service for the incorporated and unincorporated areas
under its jurisdiction. A Board of Directors comprised of five elected members governs the District.
As required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, these basic
financial statements present the financial statements of Central Contra Costa Sanitary District and its
component unit. The component unit discussed in the following paragraph is blended in the
District's reporting entity because of the significance of its operational or financial relationship with
the District.
Blended Component Unit — Component units are legally separate organizations for which the District
is financially accountable. Component units may also include organizations that are fiscally
dependent on the District, in that the District approves their budget, the issuance of their debt or the
levying of their taxes. In addition, component units are other legally separate organizations for
which the District is not financially accountable but the nature and significance of the organization's
relationship with the District is such that exclusion would cause the District's financial statements to
be misleading or incomplete. For financial reporting purposes, the component unit discussed below
is reported in the District's financial statements because of the significance of its relationship with
the District. The component unit, although a legally separate entity, is reported in the financial
statements using the blended presentation method as if it were part of the District's operations
because the Governing Board of the component unit is essentially the same as of governing board of
the District and because its purpose is to finance facilities to be used for the direct benefit of the
District. The Central Contra Costa Sanitary District Facilities Financing Authority was organized
solely for the purpose of providing financial assistance to the District. The authority does this by
acquiring, constructing, improving and financing various facilities, land and equipment purchases,
and by leasing or selling certain facilities, land and equipment for the use, benefit and enjoyment of
the public served by the District. The Corporation has no members and the Board of Directors of the
Corporation consists of the same persons who are serving as the Board of Directors of the District.
There are no separate basic financial statements prepared for the Corporation.
Basis of Accountiniz
The District's financial statements are prepared on the accrual basis of accounting. The District
applies all applicable GASB pronouncements for certain accounting and financial reporting
guidance. In December of 2010, GASB issued GASBS No. 62, Codification of Accounting and
Financial Reporting Guidance Contained in Pre - November 30, 1989 FASB and AICPA
Pronouncements. This statement incorporates pronouncements issued on or before November 30,
1989 into GASB authoritative literature. This includes pronouncements by the Financial Accounting
Standards Board (FASB), Accounting Principles Board Opinions (APB), and the Accounting
Research Bulletins of the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants' ( AICPA) Committee
on Accounting Procedure, unless those pronouncements conflict with or contradict with GASB
pronouncements.

Year Ended June 30, 2012
1. DESCRIPTION OF DISTRICT AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING
POLICIES (continued)
The District is a proprietary entity; it uses an enterprise fund format to report its activities for
financial statement purposes. Enterprise funds are used to account for operations that are financed
and operated in a manner similar to private business enterprises, where the intent of the governing
body is that the cost and expenses, including depreciation, of providing goods or services to its
customers be financed or recovered primarily through user charges; or where the governing body has
decided that periodic determination of revenues earned, expense incurred, and net income is
appropriate for capital maintenance, public policy, management control, accountability, or other
purposes.
Enterprise funds are used to account for activities similar to those in the private sector, where the
proper matching of revenues and costs is important and the full accrual basis of accounting is
required. With this measurement focus, all assets and liabilities of the enterprise are recorded on its
statement of net assets, all revenues are recognized when earned and all expenses, including
depreciation, are recognized when incurred.
Enterprise funds distinguish operating revenues and expenses from non - operating items. Operating
revenues and expenses generally result from providing services and producing and delivering goods
in connection with an enterprise fund's principal ongoing operations. The principal operating
revenues of the District are charges to customers for services. Operating expenses for the District
include the costs of sales and services, administrative expenses, and depreciation on capital assets.
All revenues and expenses not meeting this definition are reported as non - operating revenues and
expenses.
For internal operating purposes, the District's Board of Directors has established four separate sub -
funds, each of which includes a separate self - balancing set of accounts and a separate Board
approved budget for revenues and expenses. These sub -funds are combined into the single
enterprise fund presented in the accompanying financial statements. The nature and purpose of these
sub -funds are as follows:
Running Expense
Running expense accounts for the general operations of the District. Substantially all operating
revenues and expenses are accounted for in this sub -fund.
Sewer Construction
Sewer construction accounts for non - operating revenues, which are to be used for acquisition or
construction of plant, property and equipment.
Self Insurance
Self insurance accounts for interest earnings on cash balances in this sub -fund and cash
allocations from other sub - funds, as well as for costs of insurance premiums and claims not
covered by the District's insurance coverage.

Debt Service
Debt service accounts for activity associated with the payment of the District's long term bonds
and loans.
That portion of the District's net assets which is allocable to each of these sub -funds has been shown
separately in the accompanying supplementary information to the financial statements.
The District's Board of Directors adopts annual budgets on a basis consistent with accounting
principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
Investments
Investments held at June 30, 2012, with original maturities greater than one year, are stated at fair
value. Fair value is estimated based on quoted market prices at year -end. All investments not
required to be reported at fair value are stated at cost or amortized cost.
Prepaids
Certain payments to vendors reflect costs applicable to future accounting periods and are recorded as
prepaid items in the financial statements.
Bank Escrow Deposit
An escrow agreement was formed between the District and the National Park Service for the Right
of Way through the John Muir National Historic Site, in lieu of issuing a performance bond. The
current Right of Way Permit is 10 years, but is renewable and must remain in effect so long as there
is sewerage running through the area; therefore, it is unlikely that the escrow funds will ever be
released to the District. These funds are listed as restricted cash in the financial statements. See note
2.
Parts and Supplies
Parts and supplies are valued at average cost and are used primarily for internal purposes.
Property, Plant, and Equipment
Purchased capital assets are stated at historical cost. Capital assets contributed to the District are
stated at estimated fair value at the time of contribution. The capitalization threshold for capital
assets is $5,000. Expenditures which materially increase the value or life of capital assets are
capitalized and depreciated over the remaining useful life of the asset. The term depreciation
includes amortization of intangible assets.

District employees may defer a portion of their compensation under a District sponsored Deferred
Compensation Plan created in accordance with Internal Revenue Code Section 457. Under this Plan,
participants are not taxed on the deferred portion of their compensation until it is distributed to them;
distributions may be made only at termination, retirement, death, or in an emergency as defined by
the Plan. The District does not make contributions to the plan.
The plan's 457 assets are held in trust for the exclusive benefit of the participants and are not
included in the District's financial statements.
The District also contributes to a money purchase plan created in accordance with Internal Revenue
Code section 401(a). Contributions to the plan are made in accordance with a memorandum of
understanding stating that in lieu of making payments to Social Security, the District contributes to
the 401(a) Plan an amount equal to that which would have been contributed to Social Security on
behalf of its employees as long as the District is not required to participate in Social Security. The
assets are held in trust and are not recorded on the books of the District. The District contributed
$1,478,038 to the plan during the year ended June 30, 2012.
Reclassifications
Certain items in the prior year financial statements have been reclassified to match their presentation
in the current year financial statements.
Property Taxes
Property tax revenue is recognized in the fiscal year for which the tax is levied. The County of
Contra Costa levies, bills and collects property taxes for the District; all material amounts are
collected by June 30.

1. DESCRIPTION OF DISTRICT AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING
POLICIES (continued)
General County taxes collected are the same as the amount levied since the County participates in
California's alternative method of apportionment called the Teeter Plan. The Teeter Plan as
provided in Section 4701 at seq. of the State of Revenue and Taxation Code establishes a mechanism
for the county to advance the full amount of property tax and other levies to taxing agencies based
on the tax levy, rather than on the basis of actual tax collections. Although this system is a simpler
method to administer, the County assumes the risk of delinquencies. The County in return retains
the penalties and accrued interest thereon.
Secured Property tax bills are mailed once a year, during the month of October on the current
secured tax roll, to the owner of the property as of the lien date (January 1). Payments can be made
in two installments, and are due on November 1 and February 1. Delinquent accounts are assessed a
penalty of 10 percent. Accounts which remain unpaid on June 30 are charged an additional 1 1/2
percent per month. Unsecured property tax is due on July 1 and becomes delinquent on August 31.
The penalty percentage rates are the same as secured property tax.
Compensated Absences
The liability for vested vacation, compensatory time, and sick pay is recorded as an expense when
earned. District employees have a vested interest in 100 percent of accrued vacation time and 85
percent of accrued sick time for employees hired before May 1, 1985. Employees hired after May 1,
1985 have a vested interest in up to 40 percent of their sick time, based upon length of employment
with the District.
In fiscal 2012, accrued compensated absences decreased from $5,132,067 to $3,710,580, or by
$1,421,487. The current portion of the liability to be used within the next year was estimated by
management to be approximately $375,000 at June 30, 2012. The change of $1,421,487 during fiscal
2012 consists of increases of $337,579 and decreases of $1,759,066.
tatement of Cash Flows
For purposes of the statement of cash flows, all highly liquid investments, including restricted assets,
with maturities of three months or less when purchased, are considered to be cash equivalents.
Included therein are petty cash, bank accounts, and the State of California Local Agency Investment
Fund (LAIF). Restricted assets are debt service amounts maintained by fiduciaries and not available
for general expenses.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted
in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect
the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities at the
date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the
reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

New Accounting Pronouncements
In December of 2009, GASB issued GASBS No. 57, OPEB Measurements by Agent Employers and
Agent Multiple - Employer Plans. This Statement amends Statement No. 45, Accounting and
Financial Reporting by Employers for Postemployment Benefits Other Than Pensions, to permit an
agent employer that has an individual - employer OPEB plan with fewer than 100 total plan members
to use the alternative measurement method, at its option, regardless of the number of total plan
members in the agent multiple - employer OPEB plan in which it participates. Consistent with this
change to the employer - reporting requirements, this Statement also amends a Statement No. 43,
Financial Reporting for Postemployment Benefit Plans Other Than Pension Plans, requirement that
a defined benefit OPEB plan obtain an actuarial valuation. The amendment permits the requirement
to be satisfied for an agent multiple - employer OPEB plan by reporting an aggregation of results of
actuarial valuations of the individual - employer OPEB plans or measurements resulting from use of
the alternative measurement method for individual - employer OPEB plans that are eligible. The
District is required to implement the provisions of the Statement for the year ended June 30, 2012
(effective for periods beginning after June 15, 2011). This Statement will not result in a change in
current practice, since the District does not use the alternative measurement method.
In November of 2010, GASB issued GASBS No. 60, Accounting and Financial Reporting for Service
Concession Arrangements. The objective of this Statement is to improve financial reporting by
addressing issues related to service concession arrangements (SCAB), which are a type of public -
private or public - public partnership.
As used in this Statement, an SCA is an arrangement between a transferor (a government) and an
operator (governmental or nongovermnental entity) in which (1) the transferor conveys to an operator
the right and related obligation to provide services through the use of infrastructure or another public
asset (a "facility ") in exchange for significant consideration and (2) the operator collects and is
compensated by fees from third parties. The District is required to implement the provisions of this
Statement for the year ended June 30, 2013 (effective for periods beginning after December 15, 2011).
The District has no known SCAs that would require disclosure or have a material effect on the
financial statements of the District.
In November of 2010, GASB issued GASBS No. 61, The Financial Reporting Entity: Omnibus. This
Statement amends Statements No. 14 and 34, to modify certain requirements for inclusion of
component units in the financial reporting entity. For organizations that previously were required to be
included as component units by meeting the fiscal dependency criterion, a financial benefit or burden
relationship also would need to be present between the primary government and that organization for it
to be included in the reporting entity as a component unit. Further, for organizations that do not meet
the financial accountability criteria for inclusion as component units but that, nevertheless, should be
included because the primary government's management determines that it would be misleading to
exclude them, this Statement clarifies the manner in which that determination should be made and the
types of relationships that generally should be considered in making the determination.

This Statement also amends the criteria for reporting component units as if they were part of the
primary government (that is, blending) in certain circumstances and clarifies the reporting of equity
interests in legally separate organizations. It requires a primary government to report its equity interest
in a component unit as an asset. The District is required to implement the provisions of this Statement
for the year ended June 30, 2013 (effective for periods beginning after June 15, 2012). This Statement
will not result in a change in current practice, or have a material effect on the financial statements of
the District.
In December of 2010, GASB issued GASBS No. 62, Codification of Accounting and Financial
Reporting Guidance Contained in Pre- November 30, 1989 FASB and AICPA Pronouncements. The
objective of this Statement is to incorporate into the GASB's authoritative literature certain accounting
and financial reporting guidance that is included in the following pronouncements issued on or before
November 30, 1989, which does not conflict with or contradict GASB pronouncements:
1. Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) Statements and Interpretations
2. Accounting Principles Board Opinions
3. Accounting Research Bulletins of the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants'
(AICPA) Committee on Accounting Procedure
This Statement also supersedes Statement No. 20, Accounting and Financial Reporting for Proprietary
Funds and Other Governmental Entities That Use Proprietary Fund Accounting, thereby eliminating
the election provided in paragraph 7 of that Statement for enterprise funds and business -type activities
to apply post- November 30, 1989 FASB Statements and Interpretations that do not conflict with or
contradict GASB pronouncements. However, those entities can continue to apply, as other accounting
literature, post- November 30, 1989 FASB pronouncements that do not conflict with or contradict
GASB pronouncements, including this Statement. The District is required to implement the provisions
of this Statement for the year ended June 30, 2013 (effective for periods beginning after December 15,
2011). This Statement will not result in a change in current practice, or have a material effect on the
financial statements of the District.
In June of 2011, GASB issued GASBS No. 63, Financial Reporting and Deferred Ou�flows of
Resources, Deferred Inflows of Resources, and Net Position. This Statement provides financial
reporting guidance for deferred outflows of resources and deferred inflows of resources. Concepts
Statement No. 4, Elements of Financial Statements, introduced and defined those elements as a
consumption of net assets by the government that is applicable to a future reporting period, and an
acquisition of net assets by the government that is applicable to a future reporting period, respectively.
Previous financial reporting standards do not include guidance for reporting those financial statement
elements, which are distinct from assets and liabilities.

Concepts Statement 4 also identifies net position as the residual of all other elements presented in a
statement of financial position. This Statement amends the net asset reporting requirements in
Statement No. 34, Basic Financial Statements —and Management's Discussion and Analysis for
State and Local Governments, and other pronouncements by incorporating deferred outflows of
resources and deferred inflows of resources into the definitions of the required components of the
residual measure and by renaming that measure as net position, rather than net assets. The District is
required to implement the provisions of this Statement for the year ended June 30, 2013 (effective for
periods beginning after December 15, 2011). This Statement should not result in a change in current
practice, or have a material effect on the financial statements of the District.
In June of 2011, GASB issued GASBS No. 64, Derivative Instruments: Application of Hedge
Accounting Termination Provisions. This Statement amends Statement No. 53, Accounting and
Financial Reporting for Derivative Instruments. Some governments have entered into interest rate
swap agreements and commodity swap agreements in which a swap counterparty, or the swap
counterparty's credit support provider, commits or experiences either an act of default or a termination
event as both are described in the swap agreement. Many of those governments have replaced their
swap counterparty, or swap counterparty's credit support providers, either by amending existing swap
agreements or by entering into new swap agreements. When these swap agreements have been
reported as hedging instruments, questions have arisen regarding the application of the termination of
hedge accounting provisions in Statement No. 53, Accounting and Financial Reporting for Derivative
Instruments. Those provisions require a government to cease hedge accounting upon the termination of
the hedging derivative instrument, resulting in the immediate recognition of the deferred outflows of
resources or deferred inflows of resources as a component of investment income.
The objective of this Statement is to clarify whether an effective hedging relationship continues after
the replacement of a swap counterparty or a swap counterparty's credit support provider. This
Statement sets forth criteria that establish when the effective hedging relationship continues and hedge
accounting should continue to be applied. The District is required to implement the provisions of this
Statement for the year ended June 30, 2012 (effective for periods beginning after June 15, 2011). This
Statement will not result in a change in current practice, or have a material effect on the financial
statements of the District.

In March of 2012, GASB issued GASBS No. 65, Items Previously Reported as Assets and Liabilities.
This Statement establishes accounting and financial reporting standards that reclassify, as deferred
outflows of resources or deferred inflows of resources, certain items that were previously reported as
assets and liabilities and recognizes, as outflows of resources or inflows of resources, certain items that
were previously reported as assets and liabilities. This Statement also provides other financial reporting
guidance related to the impact of the financial statement elements deferred outflows of resources and
deferred inflows of resources, such as changes in the determination of the major fund calculations and
limiting the use of the term deferred in financial statement presentations. The District is required to
implement the provisions of this Statement for the year ended June 30, 2014 (effective for periods
beginning after December 31, 2012). This Statement will not result in a change in current practice,
or have a material effect on the financial statements of the District.
In March of 2012, GASB issued GASBS No. 66, Technical Corrections — 2012 — an Amendment of
GASB Statements No. 10 and No. 62. This Statement amends Statement No. 10, Accounting and
Financial Reporting for Risk Financing and Related Insurance Issues, by removing the provision that
limits fund -based reporting of an entity's risk financing activities to the general fund and the internal
service fund type. This Statement also amends Statement 62 by modifying the specific guidance on
accounting for (1) operating lease payments that vary from a straight -line basis, (2) the difference
between the initial investment (purchase price) and the principal amount of a purchased loan or
group of loans, and (3) servicing fees related to mortgage loans that are sold when the stated service
fee rate differs significantly from a current (normal) servicing fee rate.
The objective of this Statement is to improve accounting and financial reporting for a governmental
financial reporting entity by resolving conflicting guidance that resulted from the issuance of two
pronouncements, Statements No. 54, Fund Balance Reporting and Governmental Fund Type
Definitions, and No. 62, Codification of Accounting and Financial Reporting Guidance Contained in

In June of 2012, GASB issued GASBS No. 67, Financial Reporting for Pension Plans – an
Amendment of GASB Statement No. 25. The objective of this Statement is to improve financial
reporting by state and local governmental pension plans. This Statement and Statement 68 establish
a definition of a pension plan that reflects the primary activities associated with the pension
arrangement—determining pensions, accumulating and managing assets dedicated for pensions, and
paying benefits to plan members as they come due. This Statement replaces the requirements of
Statements No. 25, Financial Reporting for Defined Benefit Pension Plans and Note Disclosures for
Defined Contribution Plans, and No. 50, Pension Disclosures, as they relate to pension plans that are
administered through trusts or equivalent arrangements (hereafter jointly referred to as trusts) that
meet certain criteria relating to irrevocable contributions, dedicated plan assets, and protection of
plan assets from creditors. The requirements of Statements 25 and 50 remain applicable to pension
plans that are not administered through trusts covered by the scope of this Statement and to defined
contribution plans that provide postemployment benefits other than pensions.
For defined benefit pension plans, this Statement establishes standards of financial reporting for
separately issued financial reports and specifies the required approach to measuring the pension
liability of employers and nonemployer contributing entities for benefits provided through the
pension plan (the net pension liability), about which information is required to be presented.
Distinctions are made regarding the particular requirements depending upon the type of pension plan
administered, including cost - sharing multi - employer pension plans, in which the District
participates. Cost - sharing plans are those in which the pension obligations to the employees of more
than one employer are pooled and plan assets can be used to pay the benefits of the employees of
any employer that provides pensions through the pension plan.
The requirements of this Statement will improve financial reporting primarily through enhanced note
disclosures and schedules of required supplementary information that will be presented by the
pension plans. The new information will enhance the decision - usefulness of the financial reports of
these pension plans, their value for assessing accountability, and their transparency by providing
information about measures of net pension liabilities and explanations of how and why those
liabilities changed from year to year. The net pension liability information will offer an up -to -date
indication of the extent to which the total pension liability is covered by the fiduciary net position of
the pension plan. The contribution schedule will provide measures to evaluate decisions related to
the assessment of contribution rates in comparison to actuarially determined rates. In that
circumstance, it also will provide information about whether employers and nonemployer
contributing entities are keeping pace with actuarially determined contribution measures. In addition,
new information about rates of return on pension plan investments will inform financial report users
about the effects of market conditions on the pension plan's assets over time and provide
information for users to assess the relative success of the pension plan's investment strategy and the
relative contribution that investment earnings provide to the pension plan's ability to pay benefits to
plan members when they come due. The District is required to implement to provisions of this
Statement for the year ended June 30, 2014 (effective for periods beginning after June 15, 2013).

This Statement will result in a change in current practice, but will most likely not have a material
effect on the financial statements of the District.
In June of 2012, GASB issued GASBS No. 68, Financial Reporting for Pension Plans – an
Amendment of GASB Statement No. 27. The primary objective of this Statement is to improve
accounting and financial reporting by state and local governments for pensions. This Statement
replaces the requirements of Statement No. 27, Accounting for Pensions by State and Local
Governmental Employers, as well as the requirements of Statement No. 50, Pension Disclosures, as
they relate to pensions that are provided through pension plans administered as trusts that meet
certain criteria relating to irrevocable contributions, dedicated plan assets, and protection of plan
assets from creditors. The requirements of Statements 27 and 50 remain applicable for pensions that
are not covered by the scope of this Statement.
Note disclosure and required supplementary information requirements about pensions also are
addressed. Distinctions are made regarding the particular requirements for employers based on the
number of employers whose employees are provided with pensions through the pension plan and
whether pension obligations and pension plan assets are shared. Employers are classified into
categories. Cost - sharing employers, such as the District, are those whose employees are provided
with defined benefit pensions through cost - sharing multiple - employer pension plans. Cost - sharing
plans are pension plans in which the pension obligations to the employees of more than one
employer are pooled and plan assets can be used to pay the benefits of the employees of any
employer that provides pensions through the pension plan.
Cost - sharing employers
In financial statements prepared using the economic resources measurement focus and accrual basis
of accounting, a cost - sharing employer that does not have a special funding situation is required to
recognize a liability for its proportionate share of the net pension liability (of all employers for
benefits provided through the pension plan) —the collective net pension liability. An employer's
proportion is required to be determined on a basis that is consistent with the manner in which
contributions to the pension plan are determined, and consideration should be given to separate rates,
if any, related to separate portions of the collective net pension liability.

In addition, the effects of (1) a change in the employer's proportion of the collective net pension
liability and (2) differences during the measurement period between the employer's contributions
and its proportionate share of the total of contributions from employers included in the collective net
pension liability are required to be determined. These effects are required to be recognized in the
employer's pension expense in a systematic and rational manner over a closed period equal to the
average of the expected remaining service lives of all employees that are provided with pensions
through the pension plan (active employees and inactive employees). The portions of the effects not
recognized in the employer's pension expense are required to be reported as deferred outflows of
resources or deferred inflows of resources related to pensions. Employer contributions to the pension
plan subsequent to the measurement date of the collective net pension liability also are required to be
reported as deferred outflows of resources related to pensions.
A cost - sharing employer is required to recognize pension expense and report deferred outflows of
resources and deferred inflows of resources related to pensions for its proportionate shares of
collective pension expense and collective deferred outflows of resources and deferred inflows of
resources related to pensions.
This Statement requires that notes to financial statements of cost - sharing employers include
descriptive information about the pension plans through which the pensions are provided. Cost -
sharing employers should identify the discount rate and assumptions made in the measurement of
their proportionate shares of net pension liabilities. Cost - sharing employers also should disclose
information about how their contributions to the pension plan are determined.
This Statement requires cost - sharing employers to present in required supplementary information
10 -year schedules containing (1) the net pension liability and certain related ratios and (2)
information about required contributions, contributions to the pension plan, and related ratios. The
District is required to implement provisions of this Statement for the year ended June 30, 2015
(effective for periods beginning after June 15, 2014). This Statement will result in a change in
current practice, and may have a material effect on the financial statements of the District.

Interest Rate Risk
Interest rate risk is the risk that changes in market interest rates will adversely affect the fair value of
an investment; generally, the longer the maturity of an investment, the greater the sensitivity of its
fair value to changes in market interest rates. It is the District's policy to manage exposure to
interest rate risk by purchasing a combination of shorter term and longer term investments and by
timing cash flows from maturities so that a portion of the portfolio is maturing or coming close to
maturity evenly over time as necessary to provide the cash flow and liquidity needed for operations.
District policy is that investment maturities do not exceed one year, with the exception of Treasury
Notes or Local Agency Investment Fund; however, investments can be held longer with Board
approval.
The District's investments at year end with the exception of the U.S Treasuries and Commercial
Paper below are held in external investment pools which are liquid investments.
Information about the sensitivity of the fair values of the District's investments to market interest
rate fluctuation is provided by the following schedule that shows the distribution of the District's

Concentration of Credit Risk
The investment policy of the District contains the limitation that no more that 10% of the District's
investment portfolio will be invested in a single issuer. During the current fiscal year the District
invested 64% of its monies in the State Investment Pool (LAIF) which is not limited by the
California Government Code or District Investment Policy.
Investments in County Treasury — The District is considered to be a voluntary participant in an
external investment pool. The fair value of the District's investment in the pool is reported in the
accounting financial statements at amounts based upon the District's pro -rata share of the fair value
provided by the County Treasurer for the entire portfolio (in relation to amortized cost of that
portfolio). The balance available for withdrawal is based on the accounting records maintained by
the County Treasurer, which is recorded on the amortized cost basis.
Investment in the State Investment Pool — The District is a voluntary participant in the Local Agency
Investment Fund (LAIF) that is regulated by California government code Section 16429 under the
oversight of the Treasurer of the State of California. The fair value of the District's investment in
the pool is reported in the accompanying financial statement at amounts based upon the District's
pro -rata share of the fair value provided by LAIF for the entire LAIF portfolio (in relation to the
amortized cost of that portfolio). The balance available for withdrawal is based on the accounting
records maintained by LAIF, which is recorded on the amortized cost basis.
Custodial Credit Risk — Investments
Custodial risk for investments is the risk that, in the event of the failure of the counterparty (e.g. the
broker - dealer) to a transaction, a government will not be able to recover the value of its investment
or collateral securities that are in the possession of another party. The California Government Code
does not contain legal or policy requirements that would limit the exposure to custodial credit risk.
The District's policy is to use the services of the Treasurer's Office of the County of Contra Costa,
which will transact the District's investment decisions in compliance with the requirements of the
District's policy. The County Treasurer's Office will execute the District's investments through
such broker - dealers and financial institutions as are approved by the County Treasurer, and through
the State Treasurer's Office for investment in the Local Agency Investment Fund.

Proposition 1 Loan Receivable
Under the provisions of Proposition IA, and as part of the 2009 -10 budget package passed by the
California state legislature on July 28, 2009, the State of California borrowed 8% of the amount of
property tax revenue, including those property taxes associated with the supplemental property tax
apportioned to special districts. The state is required to repay this borrowing, plus interest, by June
30, 2013. After repayment of this initial borrowing, the California legislature may consider only one
additional borrowing within a ten -year period. The amount of this borrowing pertaining to the
District was $ 985,916.
The borrowing by the State of California was recognized as a receivable in the accompanying
financial statements, with an equal amount set up as an allowance for doubtful accounts. In the
Statement of Net Assets and Statement of Revenues, Expenses and Changes in Net Assets, the tax
revenues were recognized in the fiscal year for which they were levied (fiscal year 2010).
Due to the economic climate, and the ongoing budget difficulties of the State of California, District
management decided to reserve the entire Proposition lA loan of $985,916 in fiscal year 2010. This
amount is tracked as a loan receivable on the books, with a corresponding contra account on the
Statement of Net Assets, which effectively eliminates the receivable.

5. ASSESSMENT DISTRICTS
The District established the Contractual Assessment District (CAD) program to help homeowners
finance the cost of connecting to the District. The construction costs associated with the project
within the program are capitalized and depreciated. Individual homeowners are assessed an amount
equal to their share of the construction costs and connection fee. The assessments plus interest are
generally payable over 10 years. At year -end, the CAD receivable balance was $519,426.
The District also established the Alhambra Valley Assessment District (AVAD) to provide services
to residents in the Alhambra Valley in Martinez. Residents have the choice to pay cash or finance
the construction costs and connection fees. At year -end the AVAD receivable balance was
$ 1,701,904.
The total receivable balance for the CAD and AVAD is $2,221,330, and is shown as a non - current
asset on the Statement of Net Position.
6. LONG -TERM DEBT
2009 Wastewater Revenue Certificates of Participation
On November 12, 2009 and December 3, 2009 the District issued two Certificates of Participation
(COP).
The 2009 Wastewater Revenue Certificates of Participation, Series A and Series B were issued for
$19,635,000 and $34,490,000, respectively. The Series A COP are federally taxable "Build America
Bonds" which have a direct 35% interest rate subsidy from the Federal Government. Yields on this
series range from 3.45% to 3.78% net of the subsidy. The Series B COP are tax exempt bonds that
were used to refund the 1998 and 2002 bond issues and raise an additional $30 million in new
proceeds with yields ranging from .4% to 3.79 %.
The two bonds total $54,125,000, and are secured by a pledge of revenue. Principal payments begin
annually on September 1, 2010 with semi - annual payments due on September 1 and March 1 of each
year. Both bonds will be fully amortized as of September 1, 2029. The refunded portion of the
original bonds will be paid off based on the original amortization schedule.

7. RISK MANAGEMENT
The District is exposed to various risks of loss related to torts: theft of, damage to, and destruction of
assets; errors and omissions; injuries to employees; and natural disaster. The District joined with
other entities to form the California Sanitation Risk Management Authority ( CSRMA), a public
entity risk pool currently operating as a common risk management and insurance program for the
member entities. The purpose of CSRMA is to spread the adverse effects of losses among the
member entities and to purchase excess insurance as a group, thereby reducing its cost. Through
CSRMA, the District purchases property insurance and workers' compensation insurance.

Liability for Uninsured Claims
The Governmental Accounting Standards Board (GASB) requires state and local governments to
record their liability for uninsured claims in their financial statements.
The District's uninsured claims activity and exposure relates primarily to its general and automobile
liability program. The District records its estimated liability for uninsured claims in this area based
on the results of periodic actuarial evaluations. The actuarial evaluations are typically performed
every two years. For intervening years, the liability for uninsured claims is reviewed for adequacy
based on claims activity during the intervening period.

which the District became responsible for providing sewage treatment facilities and services to the
City. Under this agreement, the City pays a service charge for its share of operating, maintenance
and administrative costs and makes a contribution for its share of facilities capital costs expended.
Service charges and contributions to capital costs from the City totaled $10,647,389 and $2,541,688
respectively, for the year ended June 30, 2012, for a total of $13,189,077.
9. PENSION PLAN
Plan Description
Substantially all District full -time employees are required to participate in the Contra Costa County
Employees' Retirement Association (CCCERA), a cost - sharing multiple - employer public employee
defined benefit retirement plan (Plan), governed by the County Employee's Retirement Law of
1937, as amended. The latest available actuarial and financial information for the Plan is for the
year ended December 31, 2011. The Contra Costa Employees' Retirement Association issues a
publicly available financial report that includes financial statements and supplemental information of
the Plan. That report is available by writing to Contra Costa County Employees' Retirement
Association, 1355 Willow Way, Suite 221, Concord, CA 94520 -5728 or by calling (925) 521 -3960.
The Plan provides for retirement, disability, and death and survivor benefits. Annual cost of living
(COL) adjustments to retirement allowances can be granted by the Retirement Board as provided by
State statutes. Retirement benefits are based on age, length of service and final average salary.
Subject to vested status, employees can withdraw contributions plus interest credited, or leave them
as a deferred retirement when they terminate, or transfer to a reciprocal retirement system.

Plan Contribution Requirement
The Plan requires employees to pay a portion of the basic retirement benefit and a portion of future
COL costs. However, the District has paid the employee's basic contributions in accordance with
the Memorandum of Understanding (MOU). Employees must pay the COL portion of the employee
rate. The contribution requirement and payment from the District for the plan years ended June 30,
2012, 2011 and 2010 was as follows:
Percentage of payroll
49% 40% 39%
The District pension plan covered 231 participants during the year.
The CCCERA Board took a depooling action in October 2009 which yielded 12 separate cost groups
by employer, with the exception of smaller employers (those with less than 50 active members) who
continue to be pooled with the applicable county tier. The depooling action affected employer rates
effective July 1, 2011.
10. POST EMPLOYMENT HEALTH CARE BENEFITS
Plan Description
The District's defined benefit post employment healthcare plan, (DPHP), provides medical benefits
to eligible retired District employees and beneficiaries. DPHP is part of the Public Agency portion
of the Public Agency Retirement System (PARS), an agent multiple - employer plan administered by
PARS, which acts as a common investment and administrative agent for participating public
employees within the State of California. A menu of benefit provisions as well as other
requirements is established by the State statute with the Public Employees' Retirement Law. DPHP
selects optional benefit provisions from the benefit menu by contract with PARS and adopts those
benefits through District resolution. PARS issues a separate Comprehensive Annual Financial
Report. Copies of the PARS annual financial report may be obtained from PARS, 4350 Von
Karman Ave., Suite 100, Newport Beach, CA 92660; by calling 1(800) 540 -6369; or by emailing

Funding Policy
Statement No. 45 sets rules for computing the employer's expense for retiree benefits other than
pension, called OPEBs. The expense, called the annual OPEB Cost (AOC), is determined similarly
to pensions. The annual required contribution (ARC) of the employer, represents a level of funding
that, if paid on an ongoing basis, is projected to cover normal annual costs each year and amortize
any unfunded actuarial liabilities (or funding excess) over a period not to exceed 30 years. When an
agency contributes more than the ARC, there is a net OPEB asset; when the contribution is less, a
net OPEB obligation results. There is a net OPEB asset of $1,263,542 and $916,736 as of June 30,
2012 and 2011, respectively.
Because of the volatility of the investment market, the District Board voted to make monthly
installments into the OPEB Trust to take advantage of dollar- cost - averaging.
Annual OPEB Cost
For 2012, the District's annual OPEB cost (expense) was equal to the ARC of $8,300,000. The
District contributed $8,646,806; $4,139,606 for retiree health care premiums and $4,507,200 to the
PARS trust. The following table shows the components of the District's annual OPEB costs for the
years 2012 and 2011, the amount actually contributed to the plan, and changes in the District's net

Funding Status and Funding Progress
The funded status of the plan as of July 1, 2010 was as follows:
June 30, 2007 $ 2,341,251 $ 68,447,956 $ (66,106,705) 3.42% $ 22,648,230 292%
Per PARS, actuarial assets as of June 30, 2012, including trust contributions and interest, total
$22,718,524 ($18,077,303 at June 30, 2011). Actuarial valuations of an ongoing plan involve
estimates of the value of reported amounts and assumptions about the probability of occurrence of
events far into the future. Examples include assumptions about future employment, mortality, and
the healthcare cost trend. The funded status of the plan and the annual required contributions of the
employer are subject to continual revision, as actual results are compared with past expectations and
new estimates are made about the future. The schedule of funding progress, presented as required
supplementary information, presents multiyear trend information that shows whether the actuarial
value of the plan assets is increasing or decreasing over time, relative to the actuarial liabilities for
benefits.
Actuarial Methods and Assumptions
Projections for benefits for financial reporting purposes are based on the substantive plan (the plan
as understood by the employer and plan members) and include the types of benefits provided at the
time of each valuation as well as the historical pattern of sharing benefit costs between the employer
and plan members. The actuarial methods and assumptions used include techniques that are
designed to reduce short-term volatility in actuarial accrued liabilities and actuarial value of assets,
consistent with the long -term perspective of the calculations.
In August 2011, the District had an additional actuarial valuation prepared as of July 1, 2010. This
additional valuation was not required at the time, but was prepared in order to begin a completion
schedule that allows the District to have data available for future budget cycles, in this case for the
2011 — 2012 and 2012 — 2013 fiscal years. The ARC in 2011 — 2012 and 2012 — 2013 increased to
$8.3 million per year. The next actuarial valuation is scheduled to be performed by December 31,
2012 to be applied to the 2013 — 2014 fiscal year.
