CENTRAL CONTRA COSTA SANITARY DISTRICT 5019 IMHOFF PLACE, MARTINEZ, CA 9,4553-A392
December 15, 2020
Central Contra Costa Sanitary District Customers and
The Honorable Board of Directors,
Martinez, California:
State law requires that every general-purpose local government publish within six months
of the close of each fiscal year a complete set of audited financial statements. This report
is published to fulfill that requirement for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2020.
Management of Central Contra Costa Sanitary District (the District) assumes full
responsibility for the completeness and reliability of the information in these financial
statements, based upon a comprehensive system of internal controls that is established
for this purpose. Because the cost of internal control should not exceed anticipated
benefits, the objective is to provide reasonable, rather than absolute, assurance that the
financial statements are free of any material misstatements.
Maze & Associates has issued an unmodified ("clean") opinion on the District's financial
statements for the year ended June 30, 2020. The independent auditors' report is located
at the front of the financial section of this report.
Management's Discussion and Analysis report (MD&A) immediately follows the
independent auditors' report and provides a narrative introduction, overview, and analysis
of the basic financial statements. The MD&A complements this letter of transmittal and
should be read in conjunction with it.
PROFILE OF THE GOVERNMENT
History and Services Provided
The District was established in 1946 under the Sanitary District Act of 1923 and is located
approximately 30 miles east of San Francisco. The District builds, operates and maintains
the facilities required to collect and clean wastewater for approximately 342,000 residents
of Danville, Lafayette, Martinez, Moraga, Orinda, Pleasant Hill, San Ramon, Walnut
Creek and some of the unincorporated communities within central Contra Costa County.
The District also treats wastewater for approximately 141,000 residents of the Cities of
Concord and Clayton under a 1974 (and as subsequently amended) contract with the City
of Concord.
December 17, 2020 Regular Board Meeting Agenda Packet- Page 34 of 173
Page 11 of 111
The District is committed to protecting the public health and preserving the environment
at responsible rates, through conducting long-range financial planning and managing
costs. The District has approximately 1,500 miles of sewer pipeline, ranging in size from
4 inches to 102 inches in diameter, and 19 sewage-pumping stations (three of which are
privately owned) in the District's sewage collection system. The District is the sole
provider of wastewater service within the District limits (see map of service area). The
residential segment makes up the largest segment of the District's customer base
representing approximately 81% of the Sewer Service Charge operating revenue. The
District's treatment capacity has grown tremendously from a modest 4.5 million gallons
per day (mgd) in 1948 to 53.8 mgd currently. Bonds, state grants, federal grants, and
pay-as-you-go resources of the District have currently financed capital expenditures and
capacity expansions, although in recent years, pay-as-you go resources have been the
primary financing mechanism for the District's capital program.
The District also operates an expanding Recycled Water Program that provides high-
quality recycled water for non-drinking purposes such as landscape irrigation at schools,
parks, playgrounds, median strips and playing fields, as well as dust control and industrial
process uses. Due to strong customer demand the District maintained operation of its
residential recycled water fill station, which allows residential customers to obtain a
maximum of 300 gallons of recycled water per trip for use in hand watering lawns,
landscaping, and gardens. The District also actively pursues new recycled water
expansion opportunities to take advantage of the potential water supply that highly-
treated wastewater represents, particularly given California's limited water supply. Goals
of this program include expanding recycled water availability to District customers, and
potentially, putting our valuable recycled water resource to beneficial use outside of the
District's service territory through water exchanges. The District continues to
enthusiastically promote this program with the position that recycling water is good for the
environment and provides an economic benefit to the community by ensuring a reliable,
drought-proof water supply for local businesses and parks.
In addition to its responsibility to collect and treat wastewater, the District also undertakes
pollution prevention initiatives through the operation and maintenance of a permanent
Household Hazardous Waste (HHW) Collection Facility in partnership with Mt. View
Sanitary District and other local governments. The HHW Collection Facility is located
adjacent to the District's wastewater treatment plant and seeks to keep pollutants out of
the sewer system, making this facility a vital part of our overall Pollution Prevention
Program. Having completed its 23rd year of operation, the HHW Facility currently serves
over 27,000 residential and small business customers annually, from which over two
million pounds of hazardous waste is collected and properly disposed of each year. In
conjunction with its HHW facility, the District's Pharmaceutical Collection Program
encourages pollution prevention having collected over nine thousand pounds of expired
or unwanted medications between its thirteen collection sites.
Organization, Accounting and Budgetary Controls
A five-member Board of Directors governs the District. Board members are elected at
large by voters of the District on a non-partisan basis and serve four-year staggered
terms. The Board appoints the General Manager, who in accordance with policies
ii
December 17, 2020 Regular Board Meeting Agenda Packet- Page 35 of 173
Page 12 of 111
established by the Board of Directors, manages District affairs. The District employed
274 employees at year end, and has authorized 291 permanent regular full-time
employees organized in three departments steered by an Executive Governance unit.
Department Directors oversee and are responsible for the budgets and expenses of each
department and their underlying divisions. The three departments are: Administration,
Engineering and Technical Services, and Operations.
The District, by law, uses an enterprise fund structure to account for its operations and is
run in a manner similar to private industry. The District currently has one enterprise fund
which is comprised of four internal sub-funds:
■ Running Expense - accounts for the general operations of the District. Substantially
all operating revenues and expenses are accounted for in this fund (also referred to
as Operations & Maintenance or O&M).
■ Sewer Construction - accounts for non-operating revenues that are to be used for
acquisition or construction of plant, property, and equipment (also referred to as the
Capital Fund).
■ Self-Insurance - accounts for interest earnings on cash balances in this sub-fund and
cash allocations from other funds, as well as costs of insurance premiums and claims
not covered by the District's insurance policies.
■ Debt Service — accounts for activity associated with the payment of the District's long
term bonds and loans.
Each year, the Board adopts the following four budgets: Operations and Maintenance,
Capital Improvement and Sewer Construction, Self-Insurance, and Debt-Service. The
Board Finance Committee reviews disbursements prior to each regular Board meeting,
and disbursements are then approved by the full Board. Monthly financial statements are
issued to management and the Board. District management is accountable for variances
and adhering to overall budget constraints. The Board has delegated various contracting
and spending authority to the General Manager, as specified by an adopted Board policy.
Additional limited contracting and spending authority is further delegated to certain staff
classifications as specified by internal signature limits - the District also has several
documented financial policies (including debt management, investments, and fiscal
reserves) that are reviewed and updated in accordance with best practices as well as
changes in laws and regulations.
ASSESSING THE DISTRICT'S ECONOMIC CONDITION
Local Economy and Outlook
After abruptly grinding the state economy to a halt in the springtime to slow the spread of
the coronavirus disease (COVID -19), the current economic recovery from the pandemic
has been quicker than expected, but uneven. Many low-income Californians remain out
of work, while most high-income workers have been spared. According to the State of
California's Legislative Analyst's Office (LAO), the state will have an estimated $26 billion
windfall to begin fiscal year 2021-22 which can be used to make up for future budget
deficits. Based on this outlook, the LAO expects the state to allocate about half of the
iii
December 17, 2020 Regular Board Meeting Agenda Packet- Page 36 of 173
Page 13 of 111
windfall to address one-time pandemic response needs to hopefully continue rapid
economic growth and recovery. According to the California Employment Development
Department (EDD), the Contra Costa County workforce decreased by approximately
3.37% from November 2019 to November 2020. During this same timeframe,
unemployment in Contra Costa County increased significantly from 2.7% to 7.9%, as of
October 31, 2020, remaining slightly below California as a whole, which increased from
3.7% to 9.0%. Although negative news, this is well below the spike of 16% from
springtime this year, and fortunately did not reach the projected rate of 25%. Most high
wage jobs remain intact, especially in the technology sector, which lead to the state's
three main taxes (personal income, corporation, and sales) to be $11 billion ahead of
earlier projections. Since the initial shelter-in-place order from March 2020, there has
been a growing trend of employees working remotely. The ability to work from home
combined with historically low mortgage rates has caused increased demand for homes
in the state's suburban areas, such as the District's service area. There is still a significant
amount of uncertainty about the state's economic future, largely dependent upon the
ability to defeat the coronavirus.
Long-Term Financial Planning
The District has an excellent reputation in all areas of public service, which include
finance, collection, treatment, training, safety, technology, capital improvements and
replacements, innovative use of technology, and customer service. This positive
reputation and long-term outlook has served the District well, most recently evidenced by
the significant customer support and unanimous Board of Directors approval of a four-
year sewer service charge rate increase. Following the public noticing process and a
public hearing stipulated by Proposition 218, the sewer service charge rates approved in
April 2019 will be effective from July 2019 through June 2023. The four-year sewer
service charge rate increases range from 5.25% to 4.75% and are a critical component
of implementing the treatment plant and collection system capital improvement projects
specified in the District's 20-year master plan adopted in 2017. Due to the financial
hardships brought on by the COVID-19 pandemic and related lock downs earlier this year,
the Board took action and passed customer relief measures to prevent further burdens
on its customers. Specific measures taken included postponement of the rate increase
scheduled for FY 2020-21 and refunding schools' sewer service charges to reflect a drop
in water use while schools were forced to close.
In conjunction with the approved sewer service charge rates, the District's most recently
adopted long-term financial plan anticipated two debt issuances totaling approximately
$173 million to finance its treatment plant and collection system capital improvement
program through the fiscal year ending June 30, 2024. The current and primary strategy
is to pursue low interest and federally subsidized State Revolving Fund loan financing
through the California Water Board.
District management analyzes and updates a strategic plan every two years, with the
seven current goals being: (1) provide exceptional service and maintain an excellent
reputation; (2) meet regulatory requirements and promote sustainability; (3) manage
finances wisely and prudently; (4) recruit, empower, and engage a highly trained and safe
workforce; (5) maintain facilities and equipment to be dependable, resilient, and long
December 17, 2020 Regular Board Meeting Agenda Packet- Page 37 of 173
Page 14 of 111
lasting; (6) explore new technologies for continuous improvement; and (7) preserve
business continuity during pandemic events or major natural disasters. Strategies to
achieve each of these seven goals are developed, as well as metrics to evaluate success.
Performance on achievement of the goals in the plan is reported quarterly to the Board
of Directors. The District updates a 10-year financial plan each year shortly before the
budget process begins. The main economic factors considered in this long-term
forecasting exercise are: the impact of state legislation and mandates, regulatory
compliance, Governmental Accounting Standards Board (GASB) requirements,
negotiated labor contract terms (including projected changes in retirement and health
care costs), energy costs and interpreting the energy market, housing growth, and
infrastructure renewal and replacement needs. The unfunded actuarial accrued liabilities
for the District's pension OPEB plans are also considered in the financial planning
process. The District currently has a relatively strong fiduciary net position of
approximately 85.1% and 87.1% for its pension and OPEB plans respectively. A Section
115 Pension Prefunding Trust also has additional resources available to be used towards
pension liabilities.
The District anticipates that it will continue to meet its mission and goals, continue to
provide excellent customer service and responsible rates to its customers, and meet
compliance requirements and other goals as specified in its strategic plan for the coming
years.
Relevant Financial Policies
Investment Policy: The investment policies for District assets, the GASB 45 (OPEB)
Trust, and the Pension Prefunding Trust are reviewed and approved annually by the
Board of Directors. During fiscal year 2019-20 the District contributed an additional
$1,250,000 to both trusts as a mechanism to hedge against potential future employer
pension contribution rate volatility. Section 53646 of the California Government Code
governs our investment practices, and is reviewed annually by staff, legal counsel and
the Board. The Board receives quarterly financial statements that include District
investment performance. The GASB 45 Trust and the Section 115 Pension Prefunding
Trusts are governed by separate investment policies. Since 2008, the GASB 45 Trust
funds have been invested with a moderate investment strategy, reflecting the relatively
long-term horizon for use of the funds. The Section 115 Pension Prefunding trust funds
are invested using a moderately conservative strategy, reflecting the relatively shorter
term need for the funds. These two irrevocable trusts are managed by an outside
investment advisor subject to investment policies adopted by the Board. The Board
Finance Committee reviews GASB 45 Trust and Section 115 Pension Trust quarterly
financial reports to monitor the District's investment performance.
Major Initiatives
The District's vision is to be a high-performance organization that provides exceptional
customer service and regulatory compliance at responsible rates. Regulatory compliance
is provided through utilizing best management practices in our operation of our collection
system and treatment facilities, as well as through continued investment in our
infrastructure.
December 17, 2020 Regular Board Meeting Agenda Packet- Page 38 of 173
Page 15 of 111
The District has received the Platinum award from the National Association of Clean
Water Agencies (NACWA) for 23 straight years in recognition of 100% compliance with
our National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (NPDES) permit. It has also
reduced the number of sanitary sewer overflows by more than 60% in the past 16 years
by improved sewer cleaning and a robust sewer rehabilitation program.
During FY 2019-20, the District approved a two-year Strategic Plan for FY 2020-21 and
FY 2021-22. As noted previously, the Strategic Plan establishes policy direction and
identifies seven goals with key performance indicators that provide a roadmap for
achieving increased effectiveness and efficiencies. The District continues to analyze
current and future rates, costs, and cash flows to ensure they remain consistent with the
cost of service study initially completed in FY 2014-15 and updated in April 2019.
In order to effectively manage assets to meet future state and federal regulatory
requirements, the District initiated an Asset Management Program and the preparation of
a Comprehensive Wastewater Master Plan to evaluate options for addressing future
regulatory requirements. The Master Plan was completed in FY 2016-17 and has been
used as a roadmap for the capital improvements for the next 20 years. Individual projects
are proposed in an annual capital improvement budget, and brought to the Board for
approval above specified limits. Furthermore, in May 2018, the Board approved the
adoption of the Uniform Construction Cost Accounting Act, which provides for a
streamlined contracting and approval process for smaller capital projects.
AWARDS AND ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS
The Government Finance Officers Association of the United States and Canada (GFOA)
awarded a Certificate of Achievement for Excellence in Financial Reporting to the Central
Contra Costa Sanitary District for its comprehensive annual financial report for the fiscal
year ended June 30, 2019. This was the twentieth consecutive year that the District has

INDEPENDENT AUDITORS'REPORT
To the Board of Directors
Central Contra Costa Sanitary District
Martinez,California
We have audited the accompanying financial statements of the business-type activities and the fiduciary
funds, of the Central Contra Costa Sanitary District(District), California, as of and for the years ended June
30, 2020 and 2019, and the related notes to the financial statements, which collectively comprise the
District's basic financial statements as listed in the Table of Contents.
Management's Responsibility for the Financial Statements
Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of these financial statements in
accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America; this includes
the design, implementation, and maintenance of internal control relevant to the preparation and fair
presentation of the financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or
error.
Auditor's Responsibility
Our responsibility is to express opinions on these financial statements based on our audits. We conducted
our audits in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America. Those
standards require that we plan and perform the audits to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the
financial statements are free from material misstatement.
An audit involves performing procedures to obtain audit evidence about the amounts and disclosures in the
financial statements. The procedures selected depend on the auditor's judgment, including the assessment
of the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to fraud or error. In making
those risk assessments, the auditor considers internal control relevant to the District's preparation and fair
presentation of the financial statements in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the
circumstances,but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the District's internal
control. Accordingly,we express no such opinion. An audit also includes evaluating the appropriateness of
accounting policies used and the reasonableness of significant accounting estimates made by management,
as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements.
We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our
audit opinion.
Opinions
In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the
respective financial positions of the business-type activities and the fiduciary fund of the Central Contra
Costa Sanitary District as of June 30, 2020 and 2019, and the respective changes in financial positions and
cash flows, where applicable, for the years then ended in accordance with accounting principles generally
accepted in the United States of America.

Report on Summarized Comparative Information
We have previously audited the District's June 30,2019 financial statements, and we expressed unmodified
audit opinions on those audited financial statements in our report dated December 9, 2019. In our opinion,
the summarized comparative information presented herein as of and for the year ended June 30, 2019 is
consistent,in all material respects,with the audited financial statements from which it has been derived.
Other Matters
Required Supplementary Information
Accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America require that Management's
Discussion and Analysis and other Required Supplementary Information, as listed in the table of contents,
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 any assurance.
Other Information
Our audit was conducted for the purpose of forming an opinion on the financial statements that collectively
comprise the District's financial statements as a whole. The Supplementary Information listed in the Table

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS
This section of the Central Contra Costa Sanitary District's (District) annual financial report presents an
analysis of the District's financial performance during the fiscal year ended June 30,2020(2019-20). This
information is presented in conjunction with the audited financial statements,which follow this report.
FINANCIAL HIGHLIGHTS
The District's 2019-20 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 $63.6 million or 9.04% in 2019-20. This
increase is primarily a result of the negative Other Post Employment Benefits (OPEB) expense
adjustment recognized as a result of the transition to CalPERS Healthcare in July 2019, reducing
medical premium rates for current and retired participants, as well as increases in capital
contributions.
• Total revenues in 2019-20 increased by $1.30 million or 1.18%. The total annual sewer service
charge(SSC)rate increased for single family homes by 5.47%to $598 and 3.10%for multi-family
homes to $566. Increased property values in the service area led to an increase in property taxes
of$0.63 million or 3.42%.
• Total 2019-20 expenses increased by $27.0 million or 36.36%. 2019 expenses were lower due to
one-time issues including a negative OPEB expense adjustment that was recognized as a result of
the District transitioning to CAPERS healthcare administration significantly reducing current and
retiree medical premiums as well as interest savings arising from the 2018 debt refinancing.
• Capital Contributions increased in 2019-20 by $6.18 million or 13.18%. The increase is mainly
due to an increase in contributions from the City of Concord for its share of treatment plant and
other eligible capital project costs and a higher allocation of SSC to finance the capital program.
This reflects the continued increase in Sewer Construction Fund capital expenditures year over
year.

The total net position of the District increased from $621.0 million in 2017-18 to $704.1 million in 2018-
19 and increased to $767.8 million in 2019-20. The District's total assets have increased by$61.0 million
or 7.39% compared to 2018-19, and $104.2 million or 13.31% compared to 2017-18. Total liabilities
decreased $28.1 million or 19.9% compared to 2018-19 and decreased $42.5 million or 27.4% compared
to 2017-18. The increase in net position over the three-year period totals $146.8 million, or 23.64%,
resulting primarily from the District's transition to Ca1PERS for healthcare insurance, creating short and

long-term savings through more affordable health premiums for active and retired employee participants,
(2) a significant increase in capital contributions, and(3)the 2018 bond refunding.
By far the largest portion of the District's net position(90.2%)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 related 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 discharge these liabilities. The balance of$75.6 million in unrestricted net position increased
by $26.8 million from 2018-19 and increased by $82.4 million from 2017-18. As noted previously, this
increase was primarily a result of the District transitioning to a more economical provider for healthcare
insurance, reducing current healthcare premiums for active and retired employee participants as well as
resulting in significant reductions to the net OPEB liability.

Revenue
Total operating revenues decreased from $92.5 million in 2017-18 to $85.7 million in 2018-19 and
increased to $87.2 million in 2019-20. Operating revenues increased by $1.5 million or 1.80% compared
to 2018-19, and decreased by $5.3 million or 5.70% comparing 2019-20 to 2017-18. The reduction in
operating revenues is largely attributable to a sizable and planned increase in the proportion of sewer
service charges allocated to the capital improvement program, which is reported as non-operating capital
contributions.
Total non-operating revenue increased from $22.5 million in 2017-18 to $24.9 million in 2018-19 and
decreased to $24.7 million in 2019-20. Total non-operating revenues in 2019-20 decreased compared to
2018-19 by $0.2 million or 0.97% and increased by $2.1 million or 9.39% comparing 2019-20 to 2017-
18.
Total revenues decreased from $115.0 million in 2017-18 to $110.6 million in 2018-19 and increased to
$111.9 million in 2019-20. The change in total revenue represented an increase of$1.3 million or 1.18%
comparing 2019-20 to 2018-19 and a decrease of$3.2 million or 2.74% comparing 2019-20 to 2017-18.
There was a 5.47%rate increase for single family homes and a 3.10%rate increase for multi-family homes
in 2019-20, a 6.98% rate increase for single family homes and a 7.02% rate increase for multi-family
homes in 2018-19, and a 5.37%rate increase for single family homes and a 5.34%rate increase for multi-
family homes in 2017-18. The sewer service charge allocation to cover capital costs increased to 31.80%
in 2019-20 from 29.40% in 2018-19 and 15.60% in 2017-18. Property tax revenue increased by $0.6
million or 3.42% from 2018-19 to 2019-20, and $1.2 million or 6.95% comparing 2019-20 to 2017-2018
due to the continued increase in assessed property values, a healthy real estate market, and development
of residential and commercial real estate in the region.
Expenses
Total expenses decreased from $110.9 million in 2017-18 to $74.3 million in 2018-19 and increased to
$101.3 million in 2019-20. In 2019-20,total expenses increased by$27.0 million or 36.36%compared to
2018-19. Comparing 2019-20 to 2017-18,total expenses were$9.6 million or 8.65%lower. The decrease
from 2017-18 to 2019-20 is mainly attributable to the negative OPEB expense adjustment recognized as
a result of the District transitioning to Ca1PERS Healthcare, reducing medical premium rates for active
and retired employee participants. Non-operating expenses are mainly driven by interest expense.
Total income before capital contributions went from $4.1 million in 2017-18, to $36.3 million in 2018-
19, then reducing to $10.6 million in 2019-20. The 2018-19 amount benefited from the healthcare
transition noted previously.
Total capital contributions in 2019-20 were$53.1 million compared to$46.9 million in 2018-19 and$31.8
million in 2017-18. This increase was mainly derived from three factors: (1) a shift of the internal sewer
service charge revenue allocation from operating to capital, (2) a 5.25% increase in the sewer service
charge rate, and (3) more connection fee revenue arising from robust housing and construction
development markets.
CAPITAL ASSETS
Net capital assets for fiscal years 2019-20, 2018-19 and 2017-18 totaled $711.6 million, $677.4 million,
and $652.4 million, respectively. Net 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, less depreciation.

As of June 30,2020,the District's investment in capital assets totaled$711.6 million, an increase of$34.2
million or 65.2% over the net capital asset balance of$677.4 million at June 30, 2019. Net capital assets
increased by$59.2 million or 9.1%comparing 2019-20 to 2017-18. A comparison of the District's capital
assets,net of depreciation, over the past three fiscal years is presented below:

The increase in capital assets, net of depreciation, of$34.2 million from 2018-19 to 2019-20 and $59.2
million from 2017-18 to 2019-20 is a result of an expanding capital improvement program over these
years, where spending has exceeded annual depreciation. This year's major addition to construction-in-
progress includes the following:

DEBT ADMINISTRATION
The total debt obligations, excluding liabilities related to pension, OPEB and compensated absences
liabilities, for fiscal years 2019-20, 2018-19 and 2017-18 totaled $19.4 million, $21.8 million, and $29.1
million, respectively. As of June 30, 2020, the District's outstanding debt totaled $19.4 million, which is
a decrease of $2.6 million or 10.82% over the debt balance of $21.8 million at June 30, 2019. Debt
decreased by $9.6 million or 33.16% comparing 2019-20 to 2017-18. The reduction in debt obligations
is due to the refinancing of the 2009 certificates of participation during 2018-19, see Note 6 for detailed
information. The source of funds primarily securing repayment of debt issued for capital improvement
purposes is secured ad valorem property taxes.

ECONOMIC FACTORS,NEXT YEAR'S BUDGET, AND RATES
The District operates as an enterprise fund primarily funded by fees charged to external customers for
services. The District charges rates and fees to customers to cover the costs of operation and maintenance
of the sewage collection and treatment system as well as costs associated with its capital improvement
program. External factors that may affect the District's financial position include, but are not limited to
the following:
• Regulatory requirements becoming more stringent, causing the District to spend more
on compliance, both for operations and maintenance costs as well as capital
improvement and replacement projects.
• The economic cycle, creating volatility with capacity/connection fee revenues as new
development projects are highly sensitive to the economic cycle.
• Interest rate and/or investment return, which directly impacts investment earnings,
borrowing costs,and which has an adverse relationship to employer pension and OPEB
contribution requirements.
• The consumer price index (CPI), which is a measure of inflation. The CPI for the San
Francisco-Oakland-Hayward area directly impacts the cost of living adjustments
provided in the employee MOUS. Various cost pressures also affect spending for
contracted services as well as materials and supplies.
• Changes in assessed property values, which affect the District's non-operating ad
valorem property tax revenue. When the housing market improves, overall assessed
property values increase, thereby increasing the District's property tax receipts.
Conversely, any decline in the housing market will decrease property values and
correspondingly decrease ad valorem property tax receipts for the District.
These factors, to the extent known, were considered in preparing the District's budget. In June 2019, the
District's Board of Directors adopted an operating and maintenance budget of$87.6 million and sewer
construction capital budget of $66.2 million for the year ending June 30, 2020. Following customer
outreach,public noticing, and a Public Hearing stipulated by Proposition 218, in April 2019 the District's
Board of Directors approved new sewer service charges for the four-year timeframe spanning July 1,2019
to June 30, 2023 with the condition that each year the District shall re-assess whether the increase is still
justified and necessary.
The sewer service charges for the year ending June 30, 2020 incorporates an average rate increase of
5.25%, essential to help address an expanded capital improvement program. Over the next four fiscal
years the District is planning for continued growth in the capital improvement program to modernize the
District's ageing infrastructure, address regulatory requirements regarding the protection of public health
and the environment and to ensure the sustainability of infrastructure. To help finance these expanded
capital improvement and replacement initiatives, the District anticipates the use of debt financing of$170
—$200 million.

CENTRAL CONTRA COSTA SANITARY DISTRICT
NOTES TO THE BASIC FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
For the Years Ended June 30,2020 and 2019
NOTE 1 —DESCRIPTION OF DISTRICT AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING
POLICIES
A. Reporting Entity
The Central Contra Costa Sanitary District (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 and
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 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 (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 Authority
has no employees and the Board of Directors of the Authority 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 Authority.
B. Basis of Accounting
The District's financial statements are prepared on the accrual basis of accounting. The District
applies all applicable Governmental Accounting Standards Board (GASB) pronouncements for
accounting and financial reporting guidance.

CENTRAL CONTRA COSTA SANITARY DISTRICT
NOTES TO THE BASIC FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
For the Years Ended June 30,2020 and 2019
NOTE 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 position, 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 position which is allocable to each of these sub-funds has been
shown separately in the accompanying supplementary information to the financial statements.

CENTRAL CONTRA COSTA SANITARY DISTRICT
NOTES TO THE BASIC FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
For the Years Ended June 30,2020 and 2019
NOTE 1 —DESCRIPTION OF DISTRICT AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING
POLICIES (Continued)
The District reports its Other Post-Employment Benefit Trust Fund as a fiduciary fund. The
Fund consists of the Public Agencies Post-Retirement Health Care Plan,which was established in
2005, amended and restated in 2007. The fundamental purpose of the trust is to fund post-
employment benefits (other than pension benefits), such as medical, dental, vision, life insurance,
long-term care and similar benefits.
C. Investments
Investments held at June 30, 2020 and 2019 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.
D. Fair Value Measurements
Fair value is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a
liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. The
District categorizes its fair value measurements within the fair value hierarchy established by
generally accepted accounting principles. The fair value hierarchy categorizes the inputs to
valuation techniques used to measure fair value into three levels based on the extent to which
inputs used in measuring fair value are observable in the market.
Level 1 inputs are quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or
liabilities.
Level 2 inputs are inputs — other than quoted prices included within level 1 — that are
observable for an asset or liability, either directly or indirectly.
Level 3 inputs are unobservable inputs for an asset or liability.
If the fair value of an asset or liability is measured using inputs from more than one level of the
fair value hierarchy, the measurement is considered to be based on the lowest priority level input
that is significant to the entire measurement.
E. Prepaid Expenses
Certain payments to vendors reflect costs applicable to future accounting periods and are
recorded as prepaid items in the financial statements.
F. 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 sewage 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.

G. Parts and Supplies
Parts and supplies are valued at average cost and are used primarily for internal purposes.
H. Property,Plant, and Equipment
Purchased capital assets are stated at historical cost. Capital assets contributed to the District are
reported at acquisition value. 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.
Depreciation of exhaustible capital assets has been provided using the straight-line method over
the asset's useful life as follows:
Years
Sewage Collection Facilities 75
Intangible Assets 75
Sewage Treatment Plant and Pumping Plants 40
Buildings 50
Furniture and Equipment 5— 15
Motor Vehicles 7- 15
L 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.
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'/z 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.

J. 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 (one employee hired prior
to this date remains on the plan). 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. The time
may be applied towards pension service time and/or cashed out upon retirement.
The changes in compensated absences were as follows for fiscal years ended June 30:
2020 2019
Beginning Balance $5,047,603 $4,645,877
Additions 755,277 661,215
Payments (450,108) (259,489)
Ending Balance $5,352,772 $5,047,603
Current Portion $535,200 $504,700
The current portion of the liability to be used within the next year is estimated by management to
be approximately 10%of the ending balance.
K. Statement 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.
L. 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.
M. Implementation of Governmental Accounting Standards Board(GASB)Pronouncements
GASB 95 — Postponement of the Effective Dates of Certain Authoritative Guidance — This
Statement extended the implantation dates for 15 GASB Statements and Implementation Guides
by 1 year or more. Of course,many of the Statement could be early- implemented, as applicable.

D. Fair Value Hierarchy
The District categorizes its fair value measurements within the fair value hierarchy established by
generally accepted accounting principles. The hierarchy is based on the valuation inputs used to
measure fair value of the assets. Level 1 inputs are quoted prices in an active market for identical
assets; Level 2 inputs are significant other observable inputs; and Level 3 inputs are significant
unobservable inputs.
The following is a summary of the fair value hierarchy of the fair value of investments of the
District as of June 30:
2020
Investment Type Level 2 Total
Investments Reported at Fair Value:
U.S.Federal Agency Securities-FHLB $20,000,000 $20,000,000
Total Investments $20,000,000 20,000,000
Investments Exempt from Fair Value Hierarchy:
California Local Agency Investment Fund 75,000,000
Total Investments 95,000,000
Restricted Cash and investments 10,322,954
Cash and investments held with OPEB trust 69,849,380
Cash in bank 36,956,324
Total Cash and Investments $212,128,658
U.S. Federal Agency Securities totaling $20 million classified in Level 2 of the fair value
hierarchy, is valued using matrix pricing techniques maintained by various pricing vendors.
Matrix pricing is used to value securities based on the securities' relationship to benchmark
quoted prices.

Securities totaling $40 million classified in Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy, is valued using
matrix pricing techniques maintained by various pricing vendors. Matrix pricing is used to value
securities based on the securities' relationship to benchmark quoted prices.
E. 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.

H. 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.

C. 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 were federally taxable "Build
America Bonds" which had 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 were 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 .40%to 3.79%.
The two bonds totalled $54,125,000 and were secured by a pledge of tax and net revenues of the
wastewater system. Principal payments began annually on September 1, 2010 with semi-annual
payments due on September 1 and March 1 of each year. Both bonds were to have been fully
amortized by September 1, 2029. In fiscal year 2019, the outstanding amount of$29,095,000 in
principal and $9,528,717 of interest was fully refunded by the 2018 Wastewater Revenue
Refunding Bonds, Series A&B.

D. 2018 Series A and B Wastewater Revenue Refunding Bonds
On September 13, 2018 the District issued two Wastewater Revenue Refunding Bonds (Bonds).
The 2018 Wastewater Revenue Refunding Bonds, Series A (tax-exempt) and B (federally
taxable) were issued for $15,135,000 and $4,315,000, respectively. The Bonds were issued to
defease and refund all of the District's outstanding obligations with respect to the $19,635,000
original principal amount of 2009 Wastewater Revenue Certificates of Participation, Series A and
all of the District's outstanding obligations with respect to the $34,490,000 original principal
amount of 2009 Wastewater Revenue Certificates of Participation, Series B, and pay costs issuing
the Bonds. The refunding resulted in an overall debt service savings of $7,455,312. The net
present value of the debt service savings is called an economic gain and amounted to $2,603,897.
The two bonds total $19,450,000 and are secured by a pledge of tax and net revenues of the
wastewater system. The outstanding bonds from direct borrowings related to business-type
activities of$19,450,000 contain a provision that in an event of default, the U.S. Bank National
Association (Trustee) has the right to accelerate the total unpaid principal amounts of the bonds.
The official statement contains an event of default clause that changes the timing of the
repayments of outstanding amounts to become immediately due if the District is unbale to make
payment. Principal payments begin annually on September 1, 2020 and 2021 for the Series B and
A Bonds, respectively, with semi-annual interest payments due on September 1 and March 1 of
each year. Yields range from 1.39% to 2.34% and 2.62% to 3.12% for the Series A and Series B
Bonds,respectively. The outstanding balance at June 30,2020 amounted to $21,506,646.
NOTE 7—RISK MANAGEMENT
The District is exposed to various risks of loss including torts, theft of, damage to, and
destruction of assets, errors and omissions, injuries to employees, and natural disasters. To
manage these risks, 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. The District also commenced an Enterprise
Risk Management program during 2019,20, where the primary risks facing the agency are
identified,monitored and reported on to the Board.

B. Provision for Uninsured Claims
The Governmental Accounting Standard Board (GASB) requires state and local governments to
record their liability for uninsured claims in their financial statements. The District's policy is to
maintain a reserve for claims of$1,500,000 which is equivalent to three claims at $500,000 per
occurrence. The District's actuary has calculated its potential liability as of June 30, 2020 to be
$1,221,293.
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 latest report was dated November 13, 2018. For intervening
years, the liability for uninsured claims is reviewed for adequacy based on claims activity during
the intervening period.
For fiscal years ended June 30, 2020, 2019, and 2018, settlements have not exceeded insurance
coverage. Changes in the District's estimated liability for retained losses are summarized as
follows as of June 30:

Contributions—The Plan requires employees to pay a portion of the basic retirement benefit and
a portion of future COL costs. For the year ended June 30, 2020, the District's contributions to
the Plan were $17,605,893.
Pension Liabilities,Pension Expenses and Deferred Outflows/Inflows of Resources Related to
Pensions-The District reported net pension liabilities for its proportionate share of the net
pension liability of the Plan as follows as of June 30:

Miscellaneous $64,117,450 $90,430,104
Total Net Pension Liability $64,117,450 $90,430,104
The District's net pension liability for the Plan is measured as the proportionate share of the net
pension liability. The net pension liability of the Plan is measured as of December 31, 2019, and
the total pension liability for the Plan used to calculate the net pension liability was determined by
an actuarial valuation as of December 31, 2018 rolled forward to December 31, 2019 using
standard update procedures. The District's proportion of the net pension liability was based on a
projection of the District's long-term share of contributions to the pension plan relative to the
projected contributions of all participating employers, actuarially determined. The District's
proportionate share of the net pension liability for the Plan as of December 31, 2018, 2019, and

Discount Rate—The discount rate used to measure the Total Pension Liability (TPL) was 7.00%
as of December 31, 2019 and December 31, 2018. The projection of cash flows used to determine
the discount rate assumed employer and employee contributions will be made at rates equal to the
actuarially determined contribution rates. For this purpose, only employer and employee
contributions that are intended to fund benefits for current plan members and their beneficiaries
are included. Projected employer contributions that are intended to fund the service costs for
future plan members and their beneficiaries, as well as projected contributions from future plan
members, are not included. Based on those assumptions, the Plan Fiduciary Net Position was
projected to be available to make all projected future benefit payments for current plan members.
Therefore, the long-term expected rate of return on pension plan investments was applied to all
periods of projected benefit payments to determine the TPL as of both December 31, 2019 and
December 31,2018.

The long-term expected rate of return on pension plan investments was determined in 2020 using
a building-block method in which expected future real rates of return (expected returns, net of
inflation) are developed for each major asset class. The target allocation and projected arithmetic
real rates of return for each major asset class, after deducting inflation, but before investment
expenses, used in the derivation of the long-term expected investment rate of return assumption
are summarized in the following table:
Long-Term
Target Expected Real
Asset Class Allocation Rate of Return
Large Cap U.S.Equity 5% 5.44%
Developed International Equity 13% 6.54%

Total 100%
A change in the discount rate would affect the measurement of the Total Pension Liability(TPL).
A lower discount rate results in a higher TPL and higher discount rates results in a lower TPL.
Because the discount rate does not affect the measurement of assets, the percentage change in the
Net Pension Liability (NPL) can be very significant for a relatively small change in the discount
rate.The table below shows the sensitivity of the NPL to a one percent decrease and a one percent
increase in the discount rate:

NOTE 10—POST EMPLOYMENT HEALTH CARE BENEFITS (Continued)
The underlying mortality assumptions were based on the mortality improvement projected
generationally with Scale MP-15 and all other actuarial assumptions used in the July 1, 2019
valuation were based on the results of a July 1, 2019 actuarial experience study for the period of
July 1,2019 to June 30, 2020.
The long-term expected rate of return on OPEB plan investments was determined using a building-
block method in which expected future real rates of return (expected returns, net of OPEB plan
investment expense and inflation) are developed for each major asset class. These ranges are
combined to produce the long-term expected rate of return by weighting the expected future real
rates of return by the target asset allocation percentage and by adding expected inflation. The target
allocation and best estimates of arithmetic real rates of return for each major asset class are
summarized in the following table:
Long-Term
Target Expected Real
Asset Class Component Allocation Rate of Return
Global Equity 48.0% 4.82%
Fixed Income 45.0% 1.47%
REIT 2.0% 3.76%
Cash 5.0% 0.06%
Total 100.0%
Discount Rate — The discount rate used to measure the total OPEB liability was 5.75%. The
projection of cash flows used to determine the discount rate assumed that District contributions will
be made at rates equal to the actuarially determined contribution rates. Based on those assumptions,
the OPEB plan's fiduciary net position was projected to be available to make all projected OPEB
payments for current active and inactive employees and beneficiaries. Therefore, the long-term
expected rate of return on OPEB plan investments was applied to all periods of projected benefit
payments to determine the total OPEB liability.

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 et seq.of the State 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.
"Includes repayment of Prop 1A loan in June,2013. The repayment amount includes$985,916 of principal and $65,545 of interest
for a total of$1,051,461.

MEMORANDUM ON INTERNAL CONTROL
To the Board of Directors
Central Contra Costa Sanitary District
Martinez, California
In planning and performing our audit of the basic financial statements of the Central Contra Costa Sanitary
District (District) as of and for the year ended June 30, 2020, 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 that are appropriate in the circumstances 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.
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 a combination of deficiencies, in
internal control, such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of the District's financial
statements will not be prevented, or detected and corrected, on a timely basis.
Our consideration of internal control was for the limited purpose described in the first paragraph and was not
designed to identify all deficiencies in internal control that might be material weaknesses. In addition, because
of inherent limitations in internal control, including the possibility of management override of controls,
misstatements due to error or fraud may occur and not be detected by such controls. Given these limitations,
during our audit we did not identify any deficiencies in internal control that we consider to be material
weaknesses. However,material weaknesses may exist that have not been identified.
Included in the Schedule of Other Matters are recommendations not meeting the above definitions that we
believe to be of potential benefit to the District.
This communication is intended solely for the information and use of management, Board of Directors, others
within the organization, and agencies and pass-through entities and is not intended to be and should not be used
by anyone other than these specified parties.

2020-01 New GASB Pronouncements Not Yet Effective
The following comment represents new pronouncements taking effect in the next few years. We have cited
them here to keep you abreast of developments:
EFFECTIVE FISCAL YEAR 2020/21:
GASB 84—Fiduciary Activities
The objective of this Statement is to improve guidance regarding the identification of fiduciary activities
for accounting and financial reporting purposes and how those activities should be reported.
This Statement establishes criteria for identifying fiduciary activities of all state and local governments.
The focus of the criteria generally is on (1) whether a government is controlling the assets of the
fiduciary activity and (2) the beneficiaries with whom a fiduciary relationship exists. Separate criteria
are included to identify fiduciary component units and postemployment benefit arrangements that are
fiduciary activities.
An activity meeting the criteria should be reported in a fiduciary fund in the basic financial statements.
Governments with activities meeting the criteria should present a statement of fiduciary net position and
a statement of changes in fiduciary net position. An exception to that requirement is provided for a
business-type activity that normally expects to hold custodial assets for three months or less.
This Statement describes four fiduciary funds that should be reported, if applicable: (1) pension (and
other employee benefit) trust funds, (2) investment trust funds, (3) private-purpose trust funds, and (4)
custodial funds. Custodial funds generally should report fiduciary activities that are not held in a trust or
equivalent arrangement that meets specific criteria.
A fiduciary component unit, when reported in the fiduciary fund financial statements of a primary
government, should combine its information with its component units that are fiduciary component units
and aggregate that combined information with the primary government's fiduciary funds.
This Statement also provides for recognition of a liability to the beneficiaries in a fiduciary fund when
an event has occurred that compels the government to disburse fiduciary resources. Events that compel a
government to disburse fiduciary resources occur when a demand for the resources has been made or
when no further action, approval, or condition is required to be taken or met by the beneficiary to
release the assets.

EFFECTIVE FISCAL YEAR 2021/22:
GASB 87—Leases
The objective of this Statement is to better meet the information needs of financial statement users by
improving accounting and financial reporting for leases by governments. This Statement increases the
usefulness of governments' financial statements by requiring recognition of certain lease assets and
liabilities for leases that previously were classified as operating leases and recognized as inflows of
resources or outflows of resources based on the payment provisions of the contract. It establishes a
single model for lease accounting based on the foundational principle that leases are financings of the
right to use an underlying asset. Under this Statement, a lessee is required to recognize a lease liability
and an intangible right-to-use lease asset, and a lessor is required to recognize a lease receivable and a
deferred inflow of resources, thereby enhancing the relevance and consistency of information about
governments' leasing activities.
A lease is defined as a contract that conveys control of the right to use another entity's nonfinancial
asset(the underlying asset) as specified in the contract for a period of time in an exchange or exchange-
like transaction. Examples of nonfinancial assets include buildings, land, vehicles, and equipment. Any
contract that meets this definition should be accounted for under the leases guidance,unless specifically
excluded in this Statement.
GASB 89—Accounting for Interest Cost Incurred before the End of a Construction Period
The objectives of this Statement are (1) to enhance the relevance and comparability of information
about capital assets and the cost of borrowing for a reporting period and (2) to simplify accounting for
interest cost incurred before the end of a construction period.
This Statement establishes accounting requirements for interest cost incurred before the end of a
construction period. Such interest cost includes all interest that previously was accounted for in
accordance with the requirements of paragraphs 5-22 of Statement No. 62, Codification of Accounting
and Financial Reporting Guidance Contained in Pre-November 30, 1989 FASB and AICPA
Pronouncements, which are superseded by this Statement. This Statement requires that interest cost
incurred before the end of a construction period be recognized as an expense in the period in which the
cost is incurred for financial statements prepared using the economic resources measurement focus.As a
result, interest cost incurred before the end of a construction period will not be included in the historical
cost of a capital asset reported in a business-type activity or enterprise fund.
This Statement also reiterates that in financial statements prepared using the current financial resources
measurement focus, interest cost incurred before the end of a construction period should be recognized
as an expenditure on a basis consistent with governmental fund accounting principles.
Potential Impact on the District: Interest should not be capitalized for upcoming water and
sewer projects. If any balances are already included in capital assets, those can remain, but no
additional balances should be capitalized.

FOR THE YEAR ENDED JUNE 30,2020
GASB 92–Omnibus 2020
The objectives of this Statement are to enhance comparability in accounting and financial reporting and
to improve the consistency of authoritative literature by addressing practice issues that have been
identified during implementation and application of certain GASB Statements. This Statement
addresses a variety of topics and includes specific provisions about the following:
• The effective date of Statement No. 87, Leases, and Implementation Guide No. 2019-3, Leases, for
interim financial reports
• Reporting of intra-entity transfers of assets between a primary government employer and a
component unit defined benefit pension plan or defined benefit other postemployment benefit
(OPEB)plan
• The applicability of Statements No. 73, Accounting and Financial Reporting for Pensions and
Related Assets That Are Not within the Scope of GASB Statement 68, and Amendments to Certain
Provisions of GASB Statements 67 and 68, as amended, and No. 74, Financial Reporting for
Postemployment Benefit Plans Other Than Pension Plans, as amended, to reporting assets
accumulated for postemployment benefits
• The applicability of certain requirements of Statement No. 84, Fiduciary Activities, to
postemployment benefit arrangements
• Measurement of liabilities (and assets, if any) related to asset retirement obligations (AROs) in a
government acquisition
• Reporting by public entity risk pools for amounts that are recoverable from reinsurers or excess
insurers
• Reference to nonrecurring fair value measurements of assets or liabilities in authoritative literature
• Terminology used to refer to derivative instruments
Potential Impact on the District: The District should review the provisions of the Statement to
ensure that disclosures are updated or added to include the required components.
GASB 93–Replacement oflnterbank Offered Rates
Some governments have entered into agreements in which variable payments made or received depend
on an interbank offered rate (IBOR)—most notably, the London Interbank Offered Rate (LIBOR). As a
result of global reference rate reform, LIBOR is expected to cease to exist in its current form at the end
of 2021, prompting governments to amend or replace financial instruments for the purpose of replacing
LIBOR with other reference rates, by either changing the reference rate or adding or changing fallback
provisions related to the reference rate.
Statement No. 53,Accounting and Financial Reporting for Derivative Instruments, as amended,requires
a government to terminate hedge accounting when it renegotiates or amends a critical term of a hedging
derivative instrument, such as the reference rate of a hedging derivative instrument's variable payment.
In addition, in accordance with Statement No. 87, Leases, as amended, replacement of the rate on which
variable payments depend in a lease contract would require a government to apply the provisions for
lease modifications, including remeasurement of the lease liability or lease receivable.

GASB 93—Replacement oflnterbank Offered Rates (Continued)
The objective of this Statement is to address those and other accounting and financial reporting
implications that result from the replacement of an IBOR. This Statement achieves that objective by:
• Providing exceptions for certain hedging derivative instruments to the hedge accounting termination
provisions when an IBOR is replaced as the reference rate of the hedging derivative instrument's
variable payment
• Clarifying the hedge accounting termination provisions when a hedged item is amended to replace
the reference rate
• Clarifying that the uncertainty related to the continued availability of IBORs does not, by itself,
affect the assessment of whether the occurrence of a hedged expected transaction is probable
• Removing LIBOR as an appropriate benchmark interest rate for the qualitative evaluation of the
effectiveness of an interest rate swap
• Identifying a Secured Overnight Financing Rate and the Effective Federal Funds Rate as appropriate
benchmark interest rates for the qualitative evaluation of the effectiveness of an interest rate swap
• Clarifying the definition of reference rate, as it is used in Statement 53, as amended
Providing an exception to the lease modifications guidance in Statement 87, as amended, for certain
lease contracts that are amended solely to replace an IBOR as the rate upon which variable payments
depend.
Potential Impact on the District: If the District is involved in such transactions in the future, the
provisions of the Statement should be reviewed to ensure that disclosures are updated or added to
include the required components.

EFFECTIVE FISCAL YEAR 2022/23:
GASB 91 –Conduit Debt Oblikations
The primary objectives of this Statement are to provide a single method of reporting conduit debt
obligations by issuers and eliminate diversity in practice associated with (1) commitments extended by
issuers, (2) arrangements associated with conduit debt obligations, and(3)related note disclosures. This
Statement achieves those objectives by clarifying the existing definition of a conduit debt obligation;
establishing that a conduit debt obligation is not a liability of the issuer; establishing standards for
accounting and financial reporting of additional commitments and voluntary commitments extended by
issuers and arrangements associated with conduit debt obligations; and improving required note
disclosures.
A conduit debt obligation is defined as a debt instrument having all of the following characteristics:
• There are at least three parties involved:
(1) an issuer
(2) a third-party obligor, and
(3) a debt holder or a debt trustee.
• The issuer and the third-party obligor are not within the same financial reporting entity.
• The debt obligation is not a parity bond of the issuer,nor is it cross-collateralized with other debt of
the issuer.
• The third-party obligor or its agent, not the issuer, ultimately receives the proceeds from the debt
issuance.
• The third-party obligor, not the issuer, is primarily obligated for the payment of all amounts
associated with the debt obligation(debt service payments).
All conduit debt obligations involve the issuer making a limited commitment. Some issuers extend
additional commitments or voluntary commitments to support debt service in the event the third party is,
or will be,unable to do so.
An issuer should not recognize a conduit debt obligation as a liability. However, an issuer should
recognize a liability associated with an additional commitment or a voluntary commitment to support
debt service if certain recognition criteria are met. As long as a conduit debt obligation is outstanding,
an issuer that has made an additional commitment should evaluate at least annually whether those
criteria are met. An issuer that has made only a limited commitment should evaluate whether those
criteria are met when an event occurs that causes the issuer to reevaluate its willingness or ability to
support the obligor's debt service through a voluntary commitment.
This Statement also addresses arrangements—often characterized as leases—that are associated with
conduit debt obligations. In those arrangements, capital assets are constructed or acquired with the
proceeds of a conduit debt obligation and used by third-party obligors in the course of their activities.
Payments from third-party obligors are intended to cover and coincide with debt service payments.
During those arrangements, issuers retain the titles to the capital assets. Those titles may or may not
pass to the obligors at the end of the arrangements.

GASB 91 —Conduit Debt Obligations(Continued)
Issuers should not report those arrangements as leases, nor should they recognize a liability for the
related conduit debt obligations or a receivable for the payments related to those arrangements. In
addition,the following provisions apply:
• If the title passes to the third-party obligor at the end of the arrangement, an issuer should not
recognize a capital asset.
• If the title does not pass to the third-party obligor and the third party has exclusive use of the entire
capital asset during the arrangement, the issuer should not recognize a capital asset until the
arrangement ends.
• If the title does not pass to the third-party obligor and the third party has exclusive use of only
portions of the capital asset during the arrangement, the issuer, at the inception of the arrangement,
should recognize the entire capital asset and a deferred inflow of resources. The deferred inflow of
resources should be reduced, and an inflow recognized, in a systematic and rational manner over the
term of the arrangement.
This Statement requires issuers to disclose general information about their conduit debt obligations,
organized by type of commitment, including the aggregate outstanding principal amount of the issuers'
conduit debt obligations and a description of each type of commitment. Issuers that recognize liabilities
related to supporting the debt service of conduit debt obligations also should disclose information about
the amount recognized and how the liabilities changed during the reporting period.
HOW THE CHANGES IN THIS STATEMENT WILL IMPROVE FINANCIAL REPORTING
The requirements of this Statement will improve financial reporting by eliminating the existing option
for issuers to report conduit debt obligations as their own liabilities, thereby ending significant diversity
in practice. The clarified definition will resolve stakeholders' uncertainty as to whether a given
financing is, in fact, a conduit debt obligation. Requiring issuers to recognize liabilities associated with
additional commitments extended by issuers and to recognize assets and deferred inflows of resources
related to certain arrangements associated with conduit debt obligations also will eliminate diversity,
thereby improving comparability in reporting by issuers. Revised disclosure requirements will provide
financial statement users with better information regarding the commitments issuers extend and the
likelihood that they will fulfill those commitments. That information will inform users of the potential
impact of such commitments on the financial resources of issuers and help users assess issuers' roles in
conduit debt obligations.
Potential Impact on the District: If the District has outstanding conduit debt obligations or is
involved in such debt issues in the future, the provisions of the Statement should be reviewed to
ensure that disclosures are updated or added to include the required components.

GASB 94—Public-Private and Public-Public Partnerships and Availability Payment Arran,-ements
The primary objective of this Statement is to improve financial reporting by addressing issues related to
public-private and public-public partnership arrangements(PPPs). As used in this Statement, a PPP is an
arrangement in which a government (the transferor) contracts with an operator (a governmental or
nongovernmental entity) to provide public services by conveying control of the right to operate or use a
nonfinancial asset, such as infrastructure or other capital asset(the underlying PPP asset), for a period of
time in an exchange or exchange-like transaction. Some PPPs meet the definition of a service
concession arrangement (SCA), which the Board defines in this Statement as a PPP in which (1) the
operator collects and is compensated by fees from third parties; (2) the transferor determines or has the
ability to modify or approve which services the operator is required to provide, to whom the operator is
required to provide the services, and the prices or rates that can be charged for the services; and (3) the
transferor is entitled to significant residual interest in the service utility of the underlying PPP asset at
the end of the arrangement.
This Statement also provides guidance for accounting and financial reporting for availability payment
arrangements (APAs). As defined in this Statement, an APA is an arrangement in which a government
compensates an operator for services that may include designing, constructing, financing, maintaining,
or operating an underlying nonfinancial asset for a period of time in an exchange or exchange-like
transaction.
PPPs — This Statement requires that PPPs that meet the definition of a lease apply the guidance in
Statement No. 87, Leases, as amended, if existing assets of the transferor that are not required to be
improved by the operator as part of the PPP arrangement are the only underlying PPP assets and the PPP
does not meet the definition of an SCA. This Statement provides accounting and financial reporting
requirements for all other PPPs: those that either(1) meet the definition of an SCA or(2) are not within
the scope of Statement 87, as amended (as clarified by this Statement). The PPP term is defined as the
period during which an operator has a noncancellable right to use an underlying PPP asset, plus, if
applicable, certain periods if it is reasonably certain, based on all relevant factors, that the transferor or
the operator either will exercise an option to extend the PPP or will not exercise an option to terminate
the PPP.
A transferor generally should recognize an underlying PPP asset as an asset in financial statements
prepared using the economic resources measurement focus. However, in the case of an underlying PPP
asset that is not owned by the transferor or is not the underlying asset of an SCA, a transferor should
recognize a receivable measured based on the operator's estimated carrying value of the underlying PPP
asset as of the expected date of the transfer in ownership. In addition, a transferor should recognize a
receivable for installment payments, if any, to be received from the operator in relation to the PPP.
Measurement of a receivable for installment payments should be at the present value of the payments
expected to be received during the PPP term. A transferor also should recognize a deferred inflow of
resources for the consideration received or to be received by the transferor as part of the PPP. Revenue
should be recognized by a transferor in a systematic and rational manner over the PPP term.
This Statement requires a transferor to recognize a receivable for installment payments and a deferred
inflow of resources to account for a PPP in financial statements prepared using the current financial
resources measurement focus. Governmental fund revenue would be recognized in a systematic and
rational manner over the PPP term.

GASB 94 -Public-Private and Public-Public Partnerships and Availability Payment Arran'-ements,
(Continued)
This Statement also provides specific guidance in financial statements prepared using the economic
resources measurement focus for a government that is an operator in a PPP that either (1) meets the
definition of an SCA or (2) is not within the scope of Statement 87, as amended (as clarified in this
Statement). An operator should report an intangible right-to-use asset related to an underlying PPP asset
that either is owned by the transferor or is the underlying asset of an SCA. Measurement of the right-to-
use asset should be the amount of consideration to be provided to the transferor, plus any payments
made to the transferor at or before the commencement of the PPP term, and certain direct costs. For an
underlying PPP asset that is not owned by the transferor and is not the underlying asset of an SCA, an
operator should recognize a liability measured based on the estimated carrying value of the underlying
PPP asset as of the expected date of the transfer in ownership. In addition, an operator should recognize
a liability for installment payments, if any, to be made to the transferor in relation to the PPP.
Measurement of a liability for installment payments should be at the present value of the payments
expected to be made during the PPP term. An operator also should recognize a deferred outflow of
resources for the consideration provided or to be provided to the transferor as part of the PPP. Expense
should be recognized by an operator in a systematic and rational manner over the PPP term.
This Statement also requires a government to account for PPP and non-PPP components of a PPP as
separate contracts. If a PPP involves multiple underlying assets, a transferor and an operator in certain
cases should account for each underlying PPP asset as a separate PPP. To allocate the contract price to
different components, a transferor and an operator should use contract prices for individual components
as long as they do not appear to be unreasonable based on professional judgment or use professional
judgment to determine their best estimate if there are no stated prices or if stated prices appear to be
unreasonable. If determining the best estimate is not practicable, multiple components in a PPP should
be accounted for as a single PPP.
This Statement also requires an amendment to a PPP to be considered a PPP modification, unless the
operator's right to use the underlying PPP asset decreases, in which case it should be considered a
partial or full PPP termination. A PPP termination should be accounted for by a transferor by reducing,
as applicable, any receivable for installment payments or any receivable related to the transfer of
ownership of the underlying PPP asset and by reducing the related deferred inflow of resources. An
operator should account for a termination by reducing the carrying value of the right-to-use asset and, as
applicable, any liability for installment payments or liability to transfer ownership of the underlying PPP
asset. A PPP modification that does not qualify as a separate PPP should be accounted for by
remeasuring PPP assets and liabilities.
APAs-An APA that is related to designing, constructing, and financing a nonfinancial asset in which
ownership of the asset transfers by the end of the contract should be accounted for by a government as a
financed purchase of the underlying nonfinancial asset. This Statement requires a government that
engaged in an APA that contains multiple components to recognize each component as a separate
arrangement. An APA that is related to operating or maintaining a nonfinancial asset should be reported
by a government as an outflow of resources in the period to which payments relate.
Potential Impact on the District: If the District is involved in such transactions in the future, the
provisions of the Statement should be reviewed to ensure that disclosures are updated or added to
include the required components.

REQUIRED COMMUNICATIONS
To the Board of Directors
Central Contra Costa Sanitary District
Martinez, California
We have audited the basic financial statements of the Central Contra Costa Sanitary District (District) for the
year ended June 30, 2020. Professional standards require that we communicate to you the following information
related to our audit under generally accepted auditing standards.
Significant Audit Findings
Accounting Policies
Management is responsible for the selection and use of appropriate accounting policies. The significant
accounting policies used by the District are described in Note 1 to the financial statements. No new accounting
policies were adopted and the application of existing policies was not changed during the year.
Unusual Transactions, Controversial or Emerging Areas
We noted no transactions entered into by District 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
Accounting estimates are an integral part of the financial statements prepared by management and are based on
management's current judgments. Those judgments are normally based on 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 estimates affecting the District's
financial statements are depreciation, claims liability and actuarial estimates for net pension liability and net
other post-employment benefits liability.
The value of the assets, liability and assumptions used to determine annual required contributions for other post-
employment benefits is determined by an actuary study provided to the District as of June 30, 2020. The value
of the District's net pension liability was obtained from an actuarial valuation provided by CCCERA.
Management's estimate of depreciation is based on the estimated useful lives of the capital assets, and its
estimate of claims is based on the District Attorney's estimates of current and potential litigation, as well as
actuary studies provided for the District as of June 30,2020. We evaluated the key factors and assumptions used
to develop the depreciation expense and claims liability and reviewed the current actuary study and determined
that they are reasonable in relation to the basic financial statements taken as a whole.

Disclosures
The financial statement disclosures are neutral,consistent, and clear.
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 clearly trivial, and communicate them to the appropriate level of management. We did
not propose any audit adjustments that, in our judgement, could have a significant effect, either individually or
in the aggregate, on the District's financial reporting process.
Professional standards require us to accumulate all known and likely uncorrected misstatements identified
during the audit, other than those that are trivial, and communicate them to the appropriate level of management.
We have no such misstatements to report to the Board of Directors.
Disagreements with Management
For purposes of this letter, a disagreement with management is 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 a management representation
letter dated December 3, 2020.
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.

Other Information Accompanying the Financial Statements
We applied certain limited procedures to the required supplementary information that accompanies and
supplements the basic financial statements. Our procedures consisted of inquiries of management regarding 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 did not audit the required supplementary information and do not express an
opinion or provide any assurance on the required supplementary information.
We were engaged to report on the supplementary information,which accompany the financial statements but are
not required supplementary information. With respect to this supplemental information, we made certain
inquiries of management and evaluated the form, content, and methods of preparing the information to
determine that the information complies with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of
America, the method of preparing it has not changed from the prior period, and the information is appropriate
and complete in relation to our audit of the financial statements. We compared and reconciled the supplemental
information to the underlying accounting records used to prepare the financial statements or to the financial
statements themselves.
This information is intended solely for the use of the Board of Directors and management and is not intended to
be, and should not be,used by anyone other than these specified parties.
