REPORT
By Mr, Kuhn
IN RE: SIGNIFICANT EVENTS AND ACCOMPLISHMENTS - 1978
Federal Grant Awards for Sewer Construction
As a direct result of our participation in federal court litigation, as authorized at our request by
the Board of Commissioners, some $40 million in federal sewer construction grants were obtained for
Oakland County communities._ These grants combined ,oith local match bond funding have resulted in .
construction contracts for almost $100 million of an sewer lines. Almost all of these inure
than 400 miles of sanitary sewers are now under construction.
The Engineering News Record dated January 18, 1979 reported that Michigan led the nation with 1,003
billion dollars in sewerage construction bidding volume in 1978, This total volume. outstripped both
New York and California by almost $500 Million. Oakland County's portion of $100 Million is probably
the largest County volume in Michigan and possibly the nation.
In preparing for this tremendous construction program, our Right-of-Way Department accomplished a
monumental task under the leadership of Mr. Bill hardenburg in acquiring the necessary easements.
With the assistance of Mr. Jack Hays from the Civil Counsel's office where condemnation was necessary,
we obtained more than 3,000 individual easements, involving 4,888 title searches and more than 7,125
document -.
Detroit asr Rate Litigation
1. Elimination of the "differential rate of return"
Which the City of Detroit had claimed was a "reasonable" additional rate for suburban sewer
customers. only. As a result all wholesale sewer treatment rates will be "uniform" throughout the
service area of the Detroit treatment plant, which is exclusively financed by federal and state
grants and user charges.
This represents a substantial victory and will establish a principle of great importance for the
future as treatment costs continue to rise.
I. Refund of sewer rate overcharges .
The Master's Report established a refund procedure for surplus funds in the Operation and Main-
tenance budget of the Detroit Treatment Plant generated by excessive rates in fiscal 1977 -1978.
The refund will be credited against fiscal 1573 charges for sewer services.
More than $1,000 will be credited to Oakland County communities as a result.
III. Continuing Review of Progress by Detroit in Efforts to Improve Conditions at the Treatment Plant
In October, 1978 our office requested the United States Environmental Protection Agency and the
Michigan Department of Natural Resources to review the progress or lack of progress being made by
the City of Detroit under the terms of the Consent Judgment. This review resulted in the disclosure
of several major violations of the Consent Judgment and led the Court to the appointment of a Monitor
to report back to the Court as to the extent of compliance with the Consent Judgment.
The subsequent Monitor's Report was alarming to the Court in that Detroit has failed to make the
necessary progress. The Court directed that Detroit produce a written program with specific dates
and detailed plans to bring the treatment plant into compliance with the law. This report is due
on February 1, 1975.
We will continue to vigorously participate in these federal court proceedings with the purpose
of improving the quality of treatment at the plant, and holding down costs that are passed on to
Oakland County residents to pay for the treatment of sanitary effluent.

Financial Highlights
Total bond sales for the calendar year 1973 were almost $140 Million with outstanding interest rates
ranging from 5.47, to 6.7%, a good two to three points better than some of our neighboring counties.
Our Bond Refinancing Program with excellent assistance from our County Treasurer, C. Hugh Dohany,
refinanced some 542 Million in bonds for a savings to the various drainage districts of $7.1 Million.
This program was completed in March, 1978 with interest rates ranging from 5.2Z to 5.4%.
The Drain Office caused the cremation of 70,000 cancelled bonds and 900,000 coupons (81 cases),
representing more than $40 Million of original value. This released considerable storage space in
various vault locations. Hew agreements for destruction of bonds and coupons have been entered into
with various banking institutions to eliminate the accumulation of bonds and coupons in the future.
Legislation
Public Act 580 of 1978, effective January 2, 1979, sponsored by Senator Huffman.
Am amendment to Act 185 of 1957, it broadens the options of the County Board of Commissioners to
allow for either the Drain Commissioner or Public Works Commissioner to administer, as agent, projects
under Public Act 185.
Public Act 188 of 1978, effective June 4, 1978, sponsored by Representatives Maynard and Porter.
An amendment to Act 295 of 1966, the act allowing for the acquisition of private property for public
purposes. It allows an immediate right of entry easement for drainage project construction, with the
final settlement of the amount of just compensation due the property owner determined by the court
after a proper hearing at a later date. This act will prevent individual property owners from demanding
excessive compensation from the drainage board when there is a need to begin construction as soon as
possible.
Public Act 104 of 1978, effective April 6, 1978, sponsored by Representative Ruth B. McNamee.
An amendment to Act 40 of 1956 (the Drain Code) It permits the County Board of Commissioners to
authorize the Drain Commissioner to make his annual report for the preceding calendar year. In
Oakland County this change will eliminate the preparation of October 1 fiscal year financial state-
ments which were an unnecessary and costly duplication.
Southeastern Oakland County Sewage Disposal System
In May, 1978 the Drain Commissioner purchased additional capacity from the City of Detroit for the
Southeastern Oakland County Sewage Disposal District. The right to purchase this additional capacity,
and the purchase price of some $1,363,000. were fixed by contract in 1962.
This purchase assures adequate sewer flow capacity to the fourteen communities in the S.O.C.S.D.S.
district. Funds set aside for this purpose from the sale of bonds were used to complete the purchase.
In April the Drain Commissioner credited -Southeastern Oakland -County Sewage Disposal System
communities with almost SI Million ($964,537.50) from the Southeastern Oakland County Sewage
Disposal System Construction Capital Surplus to pay the 1978 capital and interest costs for the
Pollution Control Facility.
Adjustment of the Red Run Drain Apportionment
During 1978, the apportionment of responsibility, between Oakland and Macomb counties, for future
maintenance costs on the Red Run Drain was substantially revised. The original apportionment
(Oakland 90%, Macomb 7%) was adopted when Macomb County was primarily rural and largely undeveloped.
The new apportionment (Oakland 56%, Macomb 41%) more accurately reflects existing development con-
ditions. This reapportionment will represent a significant saving for the Oakland County communities
assessed for these maintenance costs.
Protecting the Environment
Urban Runoff Program
Spurred by the public concern of possible water quality degradation originating in small urban drains
and creeksheds, the Oakland County Drain Commissioner accepted the Southeastern Michigan Council of
Government's (SEMCOG) request to combine resources and participate in the Environmental Protection
Agency's Nationwide Urban Runoff Program. The purpose of this participation is to reduce stormwater
degradation from developing areas. This program will be built upon the experience and success of the
Drain Office's programs, and directly tied to the administration and enforcement of the Soil Erosion
and Sedimentation Control Act within Oakland County. Based upon the results of this program the
Drain Office and SEMCOG will be able to develop design criteria and guidelines for use by engineers,
local agencies and site planners to incorporate state-of-the-art control of urban nonpoint pollution.
These criteria guidelines will be of use to the State of Michigan, SEMCOG, counties and others
throughout the country.
Soil Erosion Control Program
A permit fee reduction went into effect on January 1, 1977 significantly reducing permit costs on
most projects. As predicted the increase in the number of large projects and increased efficiency
of personnel, allowed the Soil Erosion and Sediment Control program to continue to operate in the
black as it has since its original assignment to the Drain Commissioner by the Board of Commissioners.

computed in the manner above specified.

interest will be allowed on good faith deposits. The good faith check of the winning bidder will be
promptly cashed, and the amount received therefor will be credited against the purchase price as of

analysis activities, at the regional level that are necessary for the Plan update process. In this
role, the Council of Governments will assist local units of government in their detailed planning
and implementation work by making available a variety of planning services to communities including
continuing analysis and delineation of specific water quality problems and the development of data
bases, maps, guidelines, and other planning techniques for use by local governments in protecting
and improving their water resources. Specifically, in the initial year's planning program the
Council will be undertaking the following activities:
A. Reassessment, and as appropriate, revision and refinement of the Water Quality
Managment Plan for Southeast Michigan.
B. An identification of the water quality impacts of various general categories of land
uses and types of land use patterns.
C. The identification of measures leading to the establishment of an industrial waste
information clearinghouse for the region to facilitate the recycling and reuse of industrial waste
products.

the costs of continuing areawide planning and overview more equitably throughout the planning area.
E. The development of a set of standards for use as a guide by local units of government
in reviewing the water quality impact of proposed development.
F. The development of maps and other guidance for use by local land use planners in
assessing the soil limitations for development with septic systems.

degradation of water quality in urban fringe areas characterized by mixed land use and rapid change.
I. The delineation of specific agricultural pollution problem areas for guidance to
Soil Conservation Districts in field investigation of local problem areas.
J. The indentification of economic impacts and costs relative to water quality benefits
that will result from the implementation of various types and levels of controls and management
practices.
K. The provision of guidance and assistance to designated management agencies concerning
their water quality management responsibilities, including assistance in developing local imple-
mentation strategies and obtaining funding necessary for Plan implementation.
L. The performance of various administrative functions relative to the organization and
implementation of the Areawide Water Quality Board, including the preparation of its initial work-
plan and budget.
M. The development of an environmental education strategy designed to raise the region's
level of awareness regarding water quality concerns, including the identification of agencies'
responsibilities in the implementation of educational programs.

values of Residential Property; and
WHEREAS on December 22, 1978, the Headlee Tax Limitation Amendment took effect; and
WHEREAS it appears that the intent of Section 31 is to limit the growth of property taxes
on existing property in a taxing unit to the rate of inflation; and
WHEREAS there appears to be confusion in the interpretation of the rollback provisions
by many; and
WHEREAS the Oakland County Board of Commissioners recognize the importance of the Headlee
Tax Limitation Amendment to all taxpayers both young and old; and

procedures appears critical at this time to affect fair and accurate interpretations;

difference between the average General Price Level in 1977 and the average General Price Level in
