36- 15966623.1 SCHEDULE B ALLOCATION OF OPERATION AND MAINTENANCE COSTS Operation and Maintenance Costs for Authority Facilities will be divided into, and allocated based on, the following categories: 1. Fixed Costs include all Operation and Maintenance Costs not defined below as "Variable Costs." The total Fixed Costs, less any amounts received by the Authority to offset Fixed Costs, will be apportioned to the Agencies based on their current Maximum Flow Rate Capacity (as shown in Schedule F) normalized out of 100 as follows: San Leandro 13.74% Oro Loma 19.44% Castro Valley 10.30% Hayward 14.72% Union 42.10% In the event one or more Agencies adjusts its Maximum Flow Rate Capacity as set forth in Section 11, this schedule will be adjusted to reflect the same. Notwithstanding the foregoing, San Leandro will not share in any fixed Operation and Maintenance Costs for the Oro Loma Effluent Pump Station, Hayward Effluent Pump Station, or Union Effluent Pump Station, nor will it share in Operation and Maintenance Costs for the Transport System. 2. Variable Costs will be deemed to be costs of energy used for pumping, chemical costs used in operation of the Facilities, and maintenance, and repair charges incurred in the operation and maintenance of the system. Variable Costs will be allocated to the Agencies based on total effluent flow for a one year period as set forth in Policies and Procedures. Union's total effluent flow for the purposes of the calculation of Variable Costs will include any flow discharged to the Hayward Marsh pursuant to the Hayward Marsh MOU. The volume of flow that an Agency recycles that does not utilize any Authority Facilities will not be included in the effluent flow reported by the Agency for the purposes of calculating Variable Costs. To the extent that recycled water is conveyed or pumped using Authority Facilities, it will be included in the Agency’s reported effluent flow for the purposes of calculating Variable Costs.
