MAIN EXTENSIONS

A. DISTRIBUTION SYSTEM (Continued)
4. Primary Distribution Mains
a. Primary Distribution Mains which supply water to all areas of
the system shall be paid for by acreage fees assessed on all
properties in the system except those properties excluded in
(1) above. The fees will be based upon gross acreage served
by domestic water service and /or fire protection, and will be
due at the time application for water service is made, or the
property is developed. This does not apply to application for
temporary or irrigation service. The water main extension fees -
shall be $850 per acre.
The above fees will be calculated to the nearest one hundredth
(.01) acre.
Publicly -owned facilities such as freeways, flood' control
channels, and water spreading basins may not be required to
pay the water main extension fees if water service for these
properties is not required. If a portion of these facilities
require water service, the water main extension fees shall be
paid on that portion requiring service.
b. When a Primary Distribution Main must be extended to a new
subdivision or development, the Utility will extend the main
up to five hundred (500) feet. if an extension greater than
500 feet is required, the developer will pay for the extension
that is in excess of 500 feet, in addition to the normal water
main extension fees. The developer's portion of the cost shall
be reimbursed to him without interest as acreage fees are col-
lected from others connecting to the extended main within a
refund area designated by the Utility at the time the advance
is made. The reimbursement agreement shall be in effect for a
period of ten (10) years. • In no case shall the reimbursement
exceed the developer's cost of the extension.

A. DISTRIBUTION SYSTEM (Continued)
4. Primary Distribution Mains (Continued)
If the Utility requires a main larger than that required
to serve a new development, the developer will only pay
the cost of the size required to serve his property (min-
imum of 8 -inch for residential, 10 -inch for commercial,
and 12 -inch for industrial.).
c. Normal practice of the Utility is to extend all Primary
Distribution Mains. In unusual circumstances, the applicant
for water service, who requires Primary Distribution Mains,
may be permitted, if qualified in the judgment of the Utility,
to construct and install the mains himself, or arrange for
their installation pursuant to competitive bidding procedures
initiated by him and limited to contractors who possess a
current California Contractor's License permitting them to do
this type of construction work.
The cost, including the cost of inspection and supervision
by the Utility, shall be paid directly by the applicant.
The applicant shall provide the Utility with a statement
of actual construction cost in reasonable detail. The
installation shall be in accordance with the plans and
specifications prepared by the Utility.
For purposes of making any reimbursement to applicant or
crediting applicant with payment of water fees the cost
of the main extension made by applicant shall be deemed
to be the lesser of (1) the actual cost or (2) the Utilities
per foot cost of water mains used in determining the water
main extension fees.
d. A map showing the Primary.Distribution Mains is included
with the Rules and Regulations.

A. DISTRIBUTION SYSTEM (Continued)
5. The Secondary Distribution System will be paid for and installed
by the owners or developers of the property that the system serves.
The requirements for the Secondary Distribution System will be set
forth by the Utility. The Secondary Distribution System shall be
designed and built in accordance with the Utility's requirements
and specifications, and shall be subject to its inspection. After
completion of the system, the owner shall dedicate it to the Utility,
free of all liens, together with all necessary rights -of -way for
future maintenance and upkeep.
a. Where a Secondary Distribution System must be extended to a
new subdivision or development, the system shall be paid for
and installed by the developer of the property to which the
system is extended. If, under this rule, a developer is re-
quired to extend a system, which will later serve additional
property, the Utility shall co!-lect and return to the developer
the proportionate cost of the system serving the additional
property, if and when such property is developed.
b. The Utility may extend portions of the Secondary Distribution
System prior to development at its cost provided these exten-
sions are considered to be in the best interests of the Utility.
The costs for any such extensions shall be reimbursed to the
Utility by the owners or developers of the property served by
these extensions when these properties are developed, or ap-
plication for water service is made.
c. Where half streets are developed, the developer of the half
street shall be required to pay for and install any portion
of the Secondary Distribution System that is required by the
Utility. The proportionate share of the main's cost shall
be collected by the Utility from the owner or developer of
the remaining side of the half street when it is developed.
This fee shall be reimbursed to the original developer.

for time spent checking or reviewing plans for additions to
the Secondary Distribution System. The Utility shall estimate
the Plan Check Fees when plans are first submitted, and this
estimated cost shall be deposited before plan check or plan
review begins. When the plan check process is completed, the
Utility shall collect or refund the difference between the
estimated cost and the actual cost of plan check.
