<br />c. Charges to Process Requests. Charges to process any rate or structural change shall <br />be in addition to other charges set forth in this Agreement and shall be based upon <br />the actual costs to process and implement the change. <br /> <br />i. Rate Changes. Rate changes are changes only in the rates (dollar value) applied <br />to existing billing structure. (Examples: change metered rate from $1.00 per <br />ccuft to $1.50 per ccuft, flat charge from $10 per billing period to $15 per billing <br />period, etc.) For requested rate changes, the District will provide to the Agency <br />an estimate of the cost to implement the rate change within thirty (30) days of <br />the Agency's request therefor. The Agency understands and agrees that the <br />actual cost to implement the rate change could exceed the District's estimate and <br />further agrees to pay said actual costs within thirty (30) days of receipt of the <br />District's invoice therefor. <br /> <br />ii. Structural Changes. Structural changes are changes in the manner in which the <br />accounts are billed. (Examples: change flat charge to volume charge, add <br />minimum or maximum charge, etc.) For requested structural changes, the <br />Agency agrees to deposit with the District a sum equal to fifty percent (50%) of <br />the District's estimated cost to implement the structural change prior to the <br />District commencing performance of the work related thereto. The Agency <br />understands and agrees that the actual cost to implement the structural change <br />could exceed the District's estimate and further agrees to pay said actual costs, <br />less the Agency's deposit, within thirty (30) days of receipt of the District's <br />invoice therefor. The District agrees to refund any of the Agency's deposit funds <br />that the District determines to be unexpended in the implementation of the <br />structural change. <br /> <br />2.3. Delayed Implementation of Requests. Upon written notice to the Agency, the District <br />may delay, for a period not to exceed sixty (60) days, implementation of any requested <br />change in the sewer service charges if the District determines that such delay is <br />necessary to facilitate the District's operations. The District will notify the Agency <br />within 15 days of making a decision if a delay in implementation is required. The notice <br />will include an estimate of the duration of the delay. The Agency understands that <br />revenue anticipated by the Agency as a result of the change in its sewer service charge <br />will not be billed by the District during the period of delay. The Agency expressly <br />agrees that the District shall have no responsibility or liability with respect to such <br />anticipated revenue. <br /> <br />2.4. Billing and Collection. For purposes of billing and collection of the Agency’s sewer <br />service charge, the District agrees to furnish the labor, services, materials, and <br />equipment required for billing, collection, maintenance of customers’ records, and <br />customer contact on new services, account closings, allowance and adjustments. <br />Materials so furnished by the District will include the prepared bills, mailing envelopes, <br />postage, and enclosed return envelopes. Equipment to be furnished and used by the <br />District in billing for its own water and sewage disposal accounts. <br /> 3
