k. Pay, Paid, Payment - "Make satisfactory financial arrangements," "satisfactorily arranged
for financially," and "satisfactory financial arrangements," respectively, in addition to the
accepted meaning of these terms.
Computation of Charges
a. Transmission Facilities Acreage Fees - Transmission Facilities Acreage Fees shall be
computed on the basis of actual costs incurred by prior developers to install the
Transmission Facilities as defined in Rule 15 -C -1-c. The original reimbursable cost is
equal to the developer's actual and necessary installation costs minus the Transmission
Facilities Acreage Fees associated with the property originally developed. The current
balance of reimbursable costs shall be the original reimbursable costs minus any previous
reimbursements made and then adjusted by an amount equal to any changes in the
Engineering News Record (ENR) construction cost index since the date of completion for
those Transmission Facilities previously installed. The Transmission Facilities Acreage
Fee is determined by taking the current. balance of reimbursable costs and dividing such
total costs by the gross acreage remaining to be developed within the East Santa Ana
Canyon Area as shown on the East Santa Ana Canyon Area Documents, and multiplying
the quotient by the number of acres in the Developer/Applicant's development. The
Developer/Applicant's development area shall be measured to the nearest one-hundredth
acre of the gross acreage.

b. Terminal Storage Facilities Fees - Terminal storage facilities fees shall be computed on
the basis of the actual and necessary costs incurred by prior developers to install Weir
Canyon and Oak Hills Reservoirs as defined in Rule 15 -C -1-d. The original reimbursable
cost of Weir Canyon Reservoir is equal to the actual cost of the facility minus the
Terminal Storage Facilities Fees associated with that development. The original
reimbursable cost of Oak Hills Reservoir is equal to the actual cost of the facility minus
Mello -Roos funding of $491,425 and minus the Terminal Storage Facilities Fees
associated with that development. The current balance of reimbursable cost of each
facility shall be the original cost minus and previous reimbursements made and then
adjusted by an amount equal to any changes in the ENR construction cost index since the
date of completion for those terminal storage facilities. The Terminal Storage Facilities
Fee shall be the sum of the current balance of reimbursable costs for each of the two
reservoirs divided by the gross acres remaining to be developed within the described area,
and multiplying the quotient by the number of acres in the Developer/Applicant's
development area. The Developer/Applicant's development area shall be measured to the
nearest one-hundredth acre of the gross acreage.
C. Transmission and Terminal Storage Acreage Fees are due and payable within thirty (30)
calendar days from the date the fees are billed. If Acreage or Facilities Fees are not paid
within the specified period, a new calculation will be made which may result in a higher
fee. Acreage or Facilities Fees for Terminal Storage and Transmission Main Facilities
within the east Santa Ana Canyon area, subsequent to the first initial phases of
development, shall be paid prior to recordation of any Final Tract or Parcel Map. Acreage
or Facilities Fees shall be required on tracts in their entirety. Payment of Acreage or
Facilities Fees for portions of a tract shall not be accepted.
Improvements to Undeveloped Land
Any person who makes improvements to an undeveloped parcel of land within the Santa Ana
Canyon Area shall pay his proportional share of all necessary facilities required to provide water
service to the property. These facilities shall include, but not be limited to, additional transmission
facilities, terminal storage facilities identified on Drawing W-2389 but not yet constructed, and
additional pumping stations, pressure regulating facilities, and distribution mains.
In certain circumstances, the Utility may require the developer to install facilities in excess of what
is required to serve his property. In such cases, the developer must enter into a reimbursement
agreement with the City to recover his expenditures in excess of his proportionate share.
Reimbursement of such costs shall be made to the developer, without interest, as moneys are
collected from future developments. The reimbursement agreement shall be in effect for a period
of ten (10) years or until the proportionate cost for all additional property served has been
collected and reimbursed to the developer, whichever occurs first.

be invoiced on a work order basis for labor in excess of four (4) hours, equipment and
materials costs incurred by the Utility in inspecting and witnessing the field test.
b. Preexisting Field Test: If a field fire flow test has been conducted within a period of six (6)
months prior to the Applicant's request, and the water system pressure and flow information
provided thereby is acceptable to the Utility as an accurate representation of the water
system pressure and flow conditions in the vicinity of the Customer's property, the
information from the preexisting field test may be used by the Applicant.
C. Utility Hydraulic Model: If the Water System in the area of the proposed Private Fireline
Service connection has been hydraulically modeled by or at the direction of the Utility, and
