hereinafter set forth;
WHEREAS, this contract is necessary in order to promote the health and welfare of the
residents of the Municipalities, which services and improvements would likewise benefit the
County and its residents, and the parties hereto have concluded that the System and
improvements can be provided and financed most economically and efficiently by the County
through the exercise of the powers conferred by Act 342; and
THEREFORE, IN CONSIDERATION OF THE PREMISES AND THE COVENANTS
OF EACH OTHER, THE PARTIES HERETO AGREE as follows:
1. COSDS. The County and the Municipalities reaffirm and approve the
establishment of the Clinton-Oakland Sewage Disposal System in the County of Oakland, under
provisions of Act 342, which will be available to transport sewage originating in the COSDS
District as described in Exhibit A attached hereto, to the extent of the contract capacities
purchased hereunder and as set forth in Exhibit B by each of the Municipalities to treatment
facilities of the City of Detroit (including its successors and assigns), the COPWTFDD
(including its successors and assigns) or other systems. The Municipalities by way of
compliance with Section 29, Article VII, Michigan Constitution of 1963, consent and agree to
the establishment and location of the System within their corporate boundaries and to the use by
the County of its streets, highways, alleys, lands, rights-of-way or other public places for the
purpose and facilities of the System and any improvements, enlargements or extensions thereof,
and the Municipalities further agree that, in order to evidence and effectuate the foregoing
agreement and consent, they will execute and deliver to the County such grants of easement,
right-of-way, license, permit or consent as may be requested by the County.
Provision of Services. The County and the Municipalities understand and agree,
subject to the teims of this contract, that the County will hold legal title to and be responsible for
the administration, operation and maintenance of the COSDS facilities, and further, will accept
for transportation and disposal the sewage from the COSDS District (hereinafter refer -red to as
"wastewater services"). It is understood that the System is designed to accept a maximum rate of
flow from each of the Municipalities and therefore each Municipality shall be limited in the use
of the System to the specific contract capacity of as specified in Exhibit B. The Municipalities
expressly accept and hereby approve the capacities as set forth in Exhibit B. Each Municipality
shall have the right to use the capacity in the System allocated to it under this contract within its
respective corporate limits. Maximum Rate of Flow is the Municipalities' contract capacity and
shall mean the maximum allowable flow that a Municipality may deliver to the COSDS. This
limit shall be expressed in units of cubic feet per second (i.e. cfs). The County and the
Municipalities acknowledge that deviations over the Maximum Rate of Flow assigned to the
Municipality may occur. If a Municipality exceeds its Maximum Rate of Flow more than three
(3) times in a one (1) year period, the County shall give written notice to the Municipality to
reduce or elimination the problem causing the Municipality to exceed is Maximum Rate of Flow.
Thereafter, the County and Municipality shall meet and develop a plan for reducing or
eliminating the problem causing the Municipality to exceed is Maximum Rate of Flow. The
County may require the Municipality to acquire additional capacity or undertake measures within
the Municipality, such as, but not limited to, infiltration and inflow storm water removal or
constructing appropriate storage. If the problem causing the Municipality to exceed is Maximum
Rate of Flow is not corrected, the County Agency, in its sole discretion, shall permit no new
lateral sewers in the offending Municipality to be connected to the sanitary sewers of the System,
or to any sewer connected directly or indirectly to the sanitary sewers of the System. The County
Agency shall have the authority to oversee and regulate the discharge of wastewater from each of
the Municipalities and may take appropriate actions to protect the rights of all Municipalities.
This authority may entail flow monitoring and flow regulation, if needed, to protect the rights of
Municipalities in the COSDS District under this contract. The parties agree that in the event that
it becomes necessary to install meters to monitor flow of wastewater in the System, the costs for
installation and operation of such meters shall be borne by all Municipalities as a general system
-8-
cost. In addition, should it become nenpssary to construct or install restrictive devices to limit
such wastewater flow, the County shall, to the extent permitted by law, require the cost of such
construction or installation be borne by the Municipality or Municipalities whose excess flow
requires such construction and installation:
3. Service Area. The service area of the COSDS District is shown in Exhibit A.
Subject to the terms and conditions set forth in this contract, the service area may be amended by
the County Agency. It is understood and agreed between the County and Municipalities, that in
accordance with the contract between County and the OMIDDD, the County agency will
transport for treatment and disposal, sewage from the COSDS District to the OMIDDD with a
maximum flow limit from the System of 140 cfs and, with the requirement that County will
transport not less than 70% of all Instantaneous Flow, (which is defined by the wastewater
services contract with the City of Detroit, as Flow that is calculated and registered by a metering
device designed to measure wastewater flow at specified intervals over a specified period in
accordance with the Greater Detroit Regional Sewer System flow metering standards) from the
COSDS District area as existed in 2009 to the OMDD System. In addition, it is anticipated with
the construction of the COSDS Perry Street Diversion Project, an Act 342 project designed to
permit the transportation and treatment of flow by the COP WTFDD wastewater treatment plant,
that a portion of the sewage flow which shall not exceed 30% of the instantaneous flow from the
COSDS District area as existed in 2009, will be treated at the COPWWTFDD wastewater
treatment plant.
4. Cost Re-allocation Based on Flow and Annual Flow-Based "True-up" for COSDS
DCA and OMLD Rehabilitation Projects. The Municipalities agree to reallocate capital costs and
interest on the outstanding indebtedness (principal and interest) for the COSDS DCA projects
(Perry Street diversion project and future sewage retention tank or alternate project) based on a
three-year rolling average flow volume from each of the Municipalities. It is understood that a
-9-
Municipality may receive a credit or charge based on this methodology on its sewage disposal
invoice from the County. It is further understood and agreed by the Municipalities, that this
paragraph is applicable to all OMIDDD Bond Series, Series 2010, 2010B and 2011 and future
OMIDDD Bond issuances (e.g. financing for OMIDDD Segments 3 and 4). The County shall
adjust its calculation and implementation of this re-allocation of costs (associated with financing
of the projects identified herein), for the cash contributions made by a Municipality toward those
projects (that is, the County will account for and adjust its billing based on volume, taking into
consideration any Municipality that paid cash to avoid interest on bonds associated with projects
identified herein). This paragraph shall be implemented beginning on July 1, 2013, based on
three-year average flow calculated from October 1, 2009 through September 30, 2012, and take
into consideration only the bond and interest payments for the July 1, 2013 through June 30,
2014 rate year (thus, not retroactive for bond and interest payments paid prior to that rate year).
Thereafter, the County will utilize a three-year rolling average of flow calculated annually by the
County, and will re-allocate the principal and interest charges based on the principal and interest
paid during the rate year being reallocated for the projects identified herein. The Municipalities
understand, for billing purposes, there will be two-year lag for the County to re-allocate bond
and interest charges identified herein and "true-up" costs based on this methodology. By way of
example, the rate year beginning July 1, 2013 through June 30, 2014, will be reallocated in rate
year July 1, 2015 through June 30, 2016. Attached hereto, is Exhibit C which provides an
example of the methodology to be employed by the County for reallocation and Annual Flow-
based "True-up" of all COSDS common-to-all projects. The County Agency shall be
responsible for administering the intent of this paragraph.
5. Utilization of Services. The Municipalities understand and agree that the County
will be responsible for operation the COSDS on a non-profit basis for the benefit of the users and
further, that the County is without funds to finance, operate and maintain the COSDS except as
to those funds that are obtained from grants or from the beneficial users of the COSDS, namely,
-10-
the Municipalities. Therefore ; in no event shall the County or its general fund be ehnrgPil with or
liable for the cost of administering, operating, and maintaining the COSDS. Subject to the
conditions and telins set forth in this contract, each Municipality shall pay to the County such
charges for the use of the COSDS and shall be sufficient to provide payment of all costs for
wastewater transportation and sewage disposal services (hereinafter referred to as "wastewater
Serving ") as established by the county Agency from time to time, which charges shall be
sufficient to provide:
(a) For all costs of operating and maintaining the System, including the cost of
sewage disposal services through and by any connection to the OMID
System, City of Detroit sewage disposal system, connection to City of
Pontiac Wastewater Treatment Facility Drainage District, and/or
connection to the City of Pontiac -Oakland County Sewage Disposal
System.
(b) For the establishment and maintenance of reserve funds in such amount as
shall be determined by the County Agency, for the repair, replacement of
equipment, accessories, or appurtenances and/or other improvements of the
System as are necessary to maintain the capacity and performance of the
System.
(C)
For such amounts in the judgment of the County are necessary to pay for
any losses or legal expenses arising from the operation and maintenance of
the System.
(d) For all costs necessary for compliance with federal and state law and
regulations.
(e) For any other proper and expenses relating to the System or the financing
thereof.
6, Ratemaking. The Municipalities shall pay the County for wastewater services at
such rates as the County may establish from time to time, it being mutually agreed and
understood that such rates shall be based upon rates charged by OMIDDD to the County (based
on its contract with the City of Detroit) for wastewater transportation, treatment and disposal,
plus costs and charges incurred by County and OMIDDD for providing transportation services;
and, further based upon rates charged by the COPWWTFDD to the County for wastewater
treatment plus costs and charges incurred by County. Except as provided in paragraph 4
regarding "Cost Re -allocation Based on Flow and Annual Flow -Based "True-up" for COSDS
DCA and OMID Rehabilitation Projects", all funds collected by the County from the
Municipalities shall be utilized exclusively for the administration, operation, maintenance,
reserves and benefit of the System. Service charges by the County for wastewater services shall
be made to each Municipality upon a schedule of rates and charges promulgated from time to
time by the County Agency. Any rates and charges specified in any such schedule shall be
subject to increase by the County Agency at any time if necessary to provide funds to meet
existing or future obligations associated with capital and interest on system bonds or other
financing, or maintenance improvements of the System. Each of the Municipalities reserves the
right to establish rates to be collected from its individual users (i.e. ratepayers) in an amount
sufficient to pay its wastewater services charges or other charges as specified in this contract, to
the County when due. Such rates may be fixed and established in such amounts as will produce
additional funds for such Municipality to be used for any lawful purpose, pertaining to
wastewater services charges and water supply in the event of joint municipal system.
7. Proportional User Charges. Each of the Municipalities agrees that it shall adopt
and enforce ordinances, and any rules and regulations to implement and maintain a revenue
system that, at a minimum, provides that the operation, maintenance and replacement charges
and costs identified herein are distributed proportionately to each user or user class that is
tributary to COSDS, OMID System, City of Detroit system and COPWTFDD. In particular,
such ordinance, rules and regulations shall provide that surcharges established by City of Detroit,
OMIDDD, COP WTFDD or the County for the recovery of incremental operation, maintenance
and replacement costs of treating extraordinary concentrations of sewage, shall be billed to and
collected from individual firms as identified by the City of Detroit, OMIDDD, COPWWTFDD
or the County in its billings to the Municipalities. These rules and regulations shall conform to
Section 204(b) (1)(A) of Public Law 92-500, as amended, and regulations of the United States
Environmental Protection Agency (hereinafter referred to as the U.S. EPA), being 40 CFR,
35.929 through 35.929-3, and shall achieve a proportionate User Charge System which is
-12-
effective throughout COSDS District. The rules and regulations shall provide for monitoring of
commercial, governmental and industrial users and shall be consistent with the monitoring rules
and regulations of City of Detroit, OMIDDD, COP WTFDD and the County. The County shall
have the right under said rules and regulations to audit all monitoring activities including the
right to perform monitoring tests itself to verify the accuracy of monitoring results.
8. Charges to be Based on Flow. The charges for such wastewater services, except
as hereinafter provided, shall be on the basis of the aggregate quantity of wastewater (including
sanitary flow, dry weather infiltration and inflow, and a wet weather component) entering the
COSDS from the Municipalities or other method as determined by the County Agency. Included
in the computation of charges for wastewater services are all applicable costs and expenses
associated with financing, administration, operation and maintenance, sewage disposal charges
or other applicable expenses as determined by the County Agency. In the event that the County
is billed directly by the City of Detroit or COP WTFDD for charges associated with high strength
and industrial wastewater flows, such charges may be invoiced directly to the responsible
Municipality or Municipalities as determined by the County Agency.
9. Billing. The wastewater services charges as herein provided shall be billed on
either a monthly or quarterly basis by the County to the Municipalities. Any portion of the
charges not related to accuracy or rates that are not paid by a Municipality to the County on the
due date shall be subject to a finance charge at a rate of 1.5% per month for each month that they
remain unpaid. Any portion of the total bill, plus any finance charges applied to the bill which
are not paid by the next billing date, shall be shown on the next bill as arrears. If the accuracy of
a bill is in dispute, a Municipality agrees to place the disputed amount of the bill in an interest
bearing escrow account maintained by the County Treasurer pending resolution of the dispute
and the finance charge shall thereupon cease. Accrued interest on the escrow account shall be
allocated between the County and Municipality directly proportional with the resolution of the
-13-
dispute. The cost, if any, of maintaining the escrow account shall be allocated between the
County and Municipality inversely proportional with the resolution of the dispute. Disputes
related to rates for waste water services charged by the County are specifically excluded from the
application of this paragraph. Claims for interest in any other billing dispute shall be resolved by
a court of competent jurisdiction. It is understood and agreed, that the payment of wastewater
services charges for each Municipality shall be the general obligation of such Municipality, and
the County Agency shall have the right to utilize any method permitted by law for the collection.
of such charges due to the County under this contract.
10. Municipal Collection System. It shall be the obligation of each of the
Municipalities to provide the necessary sanitary sewers to transport its sewage from the area
served by the System or to cause the same to be provided by agreement with the County. All
connections to the sanitary sewer interceptors of the System shall be made by the Municipality
so connecting, at the Municipality's expense, after first securing a permit from the County
Agency. Any such permit may be made conditional upon inspection and approval of new
construction by the County. No Municipality that is a party to this contract shall divert flow that
is presently tributary to the COSDS to another sewage treatment plant or facility or construct or
permit the construction of any new sewage treatment plant or facility within the COSDS District
without the approval of the County Agency. This prohibition shall not apply to the area served
by the City of Pontiac-Oakland County Sewage Disposal System, a separate Act 342 system
administered by the County Agency.
11. Prohibition of Storm Water Connections. The County Agency shall establish and
promulgate general rules and regulations controlling the discharge of sanitary sewage into the
COSDS. Each of the Municipalities expressly understands and agrees that, except as provided by
the County Agency's regulations, no storm water sewers shall be connected directly to the
sanitary sewers of the System, or to any sanitary sewers connected, directly or indirectly, to the
-14-
sanitary sewers of the System and as a condition of this contract, each Municipality shall adopt
an ordinance in a form approved by the County Agency, prohibiting the entry of storm water into
the System from any area served thereby in the Municipality. The County Agency agrees that it
will take appropriate steps and actions to prohibit the entry of storm water into the System
coming from sewers or other systems under the control of any public corporation or agency
thereof.
12. Public Purpose. The County and the Municipalities enter this contract to serve the
public health and welfare of the people of the State of Michigan, especially in the COSDS
District.
13. Engineering Standards, The Municipalities agree to conform to generally
acceptable standards and specifications established by the County Agency for the installation of
wastewater collection, pumping, and transportation facilities which the Municipality will cause
to have constructed within its corporate limits. The Municipalities shall submit plans for nev,,
sewers directly to the County Agency for review and approval.
14. Violations of Flow Standards. Each Municipality understands and agrees that it
shall be responsible for the character of the wastewater originating therein and shall comply with
County Agency's standards and regulations controlling the discharge of industrial and/or
commercial types of wastes into the System. Accordingly, in cases where the character of
wastewater from Municipalities or any portions thereof or from any commercial manufacturing
or industrial plant, building or premises within the corporate limits of any Municipality or
Municipalities is such that it imposes an additional burden upon the facilities of or services
provided by County or the facilities of the OMIDDD, City of Detroit, and/or COP WTFDD above
that which would be imposed through adherence to standard limitations, as established from time
to time by the County Agency, OMIDDD, City of Detroit, COPWTFDD, or agencies of the state
-15-
or federal governments, for wastewater permitted to enter the COSDS and tributary systems, any
additional costs necessitated thereby shall be an additional charge over the rates herein provided.
The Municipalities shall refuse any person, firm, or corporation the right to discharge its
wastewater into its wastewater system if such wastewater violates the standards or limitations
established or to be established. The County also reserves the right to deny a Municipality's
discharge into the System, if necessary, to protect the System or the public health or safety.
15. Compliance with Laws and Regulations. The Municipalities agree to comply
with all laws, ordinances, rules, regulations, and orders of the County, State of Michigan and
United States of America applicable to the service area of the COSDS District, OMIDDD, City
of Detroit's wastewater disposal system within County, and the COP WTFDD, with reference to
wastewater characteristics, collection and disposal, and water pollution control. The
Municipalities further agree to ascertain the party or parties at fault and require same to pay the
reasonable cost for repair of any damage resulting to the interceptors serving the COSDS District
whether or not owned by the County (including the OMID System, the City of Detroit System,
and/or COP WTFDD System) for the violation of any of the aforesaid laws, ordinances, orders,
rules and regulations.
16. Industrial Wastewater Control. Each of the Municipalities agrees that it shall
adopt and enforce rules and regulations pertaining to the use, design and construction of sewers,
and the discharge of industrial or commercial wastes into sewers, where such sewers are
tributary to OMID System, City of Detroit and/or COPWTFDD. Such rules and regulations shall
be consistent with and at least as stringent as all applicable provisions of the pertinent ordinances
adopted by the City of Detroit, these being the 1979 amendments to Chapter 56, Article 1, and
Chapter 56, Article 6, of the Municipal code of the City of Detroit as they may be adopted and
amended from time to time; and the pertinent ordinances adopted by the City of Pontiac, these
-16-
being Ordinance No. 2267, Chapter 18, amending the Code of Ordinances to comply with State
and Federal regulations concerning sewerage. In the event any Municipality shall fail to adopt
an ordinance as required herein, or shall fail to diligently enforce the same, the County, the City
of Detroit (its successors and assigns), the COPWTFDD and/or the City of Pontiac (its
successors and assigns) shall have authority to take appropriate action which may include suit in
an appropriate court of general jurisdiction alleging such Municipality's failure to adopt or
enforce an ordinance, and following a hearing on the merits, should the court find that the
allegations are true, it is agreed that such court may, in such instance, grant appropriate
injunctive relief against said Municipality or any individual discharger there; terminate the
Municipality's contractual right to discharge waste waters into County system and/or to grant the
City of Detroit and/or grant COPWTFDD/City of Pontiac such other relief as may be appropriate
under the circumstances. These actions shall enable the County, City of Detroit, COPWTFDD
and/or City of Pontiac to:
a. Deny or impose conditions on new or increased contributions of pollutants
or changes in the nature of pollutants, to the waste collection system by
Industrial and Commercial Users. The terms "Industrial and Commercial"

defined in Chapter 118 of the City of Pontiac Code of Ordinances, and as
amended from time to time.

to detennine, independent of information supplied by Industrial and
Commercial Users, compliance or noncompliance with applicable
National Pretreatment Standards and other more restrictive requirements

Standards and other more restrictive requirements as may be imposed by
County, City of Detroit or COPWTFDD..
h. Require Industrial and Commercial Users to install containment facilities
to protect the treatment works from accidental spills of critical or
hazardous materials.
17. The County and the Municipalities each recognize that the County and various
drainage districts have issued and will issue bonds to finance capital improvements to serve
COSDS District, which bonds are secured by the full faith and credit pledge of the Municipalities
to the making of their proportionate payments either by separate contract or under the Michigan
Drain Code (Act 40) ,and it is therefore covenanted and agreed by the County and the
Municipalities that, so long as any such bonds remain outstanding and unpaid, the provisions of
this contract shall not impair the security for the bonds or the prompt payment of principal of
principal or interest thereon. The Municipalities and the County Agency further covenant and
agree that they will comply with their respective duties and obligations under the terms of this
contract promptly, and will not suffer to be done any act which would in any way impair bonds,
the security therefor, or the prompt payment of interest thereon.
18. The County Agency is hereby authorized, but not required, to utilize County
personnel for the administration of the COSDS. The Municipalities agree that the costs of
-18-
contract administration, auditing and financial services shall be part of the cost of the System
costs, whether such services are provided by County personnel or third parties. In the case of
County personnel, the costs attributed to the System shall include the allocable share of such
personnel's salary and fringe benefits to the System as determined by the Comity Agency.
10
No change in the jurisdiction over any territory in any of the Municipalities shall
impair in any manner the obligations of this contract or affect the obligations of the
Municipalities hereunder. In the event that all or any part of the territory of any Municipality is
incorporated as a new city or village or is annexed to or becomes a part of the territory of another
municipality, the municipality into which such territory is incorporated or to which such territory
is annexed shall assume the proper proportionate share of the contractual obligations (including
the pledge of full faith and credit) and Maximum Rate of Flow of such Municipality, which
proper proportionate share shall be fixed and determined by the County Agency and shall be
binding upon all parties concerned unless, within sixty (60) days afLer such incorporation or
annexation becomes effective, the governing body of the municipality into which such territory
is incorporated or to which such territory is annexed and the governing body of such
Municipality shall by mutual agreement and with the written approval of the County Agency fix
and determine such proper proportionate share. The County Agency, prior to making such
determination, shall receive a written recommendation as to the proper proportionate share from
a committee composed of one representative designated by the governing body of such
Municipality, one designated by the governing body of the new municipality or the municipality
incorporating or annexing such territory and one independent registered engineer appointed by
the County Agency. Each governmental unit shall appoint its representative within fifteen (15)
days after being notified to do so by the County Agency and within a like time the County
Agency shall appoint the engineer third member. If any such representative (other than the
appointee of the County Agency) is not appointed within the time above provided, then the
County Agency may proceed without said recommendation. If the committee shall not make the
-19-
recommendation within forty-five (45) days after its appointment or within any extension thereof
by the County Agency, then the County Agency may proceed without such recommendation,

Municipalities and not the individual property owners and users thereof, unless by special
arrangement between the County Agency and the Municipalities. The responsibility of requiring
connection to and use of the System and/or providing such additional facilities as may be needed

cause to be constructed and maintained, directly or through the County, any such necessary
additional facilities.

Pursuant to Rule XII-C of this Board, the Finance Committee has
reviewed the above referenced resolution and finds:
1. This resolution requests the Oakland County Board of
Commissioners to approve the Clinton-Oakland Sewage Disposal
System 2013 Inter-Municipal contract because several factors
have changed making it necessary to enter into a new inter-
municipal agreement.
2. The Clinton-Oakland Sewage Disposal System 2013 Inter-
Municipal contract will replace the 1967 Clinton-Oakland
Sewage Disposal System contract, the Clinton-Oakland Sewage
Disposal System Paint Creek Interceptor contract, the
Clinton-Oakland Sewage Disposal System Gibson-Avon Arm
contract, the Rochester Connection contract and the Clinton-
Oakland Sewage Disposal System Management Agreement dated
January 1, 1996.
3. This contract allows the Oakland-Macomb Interceptor Drain
Drainage District to contract with the City of Detroit for
treatment of the Clinton-Oakland Sewage Disposal System
sewage flow; assign new flow capacities; adds the City of
Rochester as a community to the Clinton-Oakland Sewage
Disposal System; includes the System's ability to divert
flow to the wastewater treatment plant located in the City
of Pontiac; adopts a process for re-allocating certain
capital and interest costs; and provides for the imposition
of charges for sewage treatment services and costs
associated with administration, operation and maintenance.
4. The contract provides for system improvements which will
promote the health and welfare of the residents and can be
financed most economically by the County through the
exercise of the powers conferred by Act 342.
5. No budget amendment is required. No General Fund
appropriation required.
