We have audited the records of the Administrator (the City of
Carlsbad) and made tests of the books of San Diego County for
the fiscal year ended June 30, 1972 and examined contract re-
ceipts and payments made through the trust accounts of Vista
Sanitation District for the 1970 and 1972 plant enlargements
and ocean outfall extension.
Supervision fees charged to the joint system for 1971-72 for
sanitation and engineering of $22,022 were allocated to each
unit in the ratio that the basic maintenance and overhead
costs bore to the total costs of all units. In prior years
these costs had been included in the costs of each unit allo-
cated by the County.
The facilities lease costs charged to the Leucadia County
Water District (which lease expires September 30, 1973, sub-
ject to certain termination and extension options) is $10,000
per year for avilabi lity plus the greater of $90 per million
gallons metered or prorated operations costs of Units I and J
plus 30%. Under the interpretation that unit costs include a
proration of sanitation department supervision, consulting
fees and administrative overhead costs, it would appear that
$3,601 would be owing from Leucadia for the 1971-72 fiscal
year. _A review should be made by the. committee to determine
if this allocation is valid as to interpretati~n.
In our opinion, the statements listed in the index consisting
of Exhibits A through D, present fairly the operations for the
fiscal year ended June 30, 1972 and the trust balances and
ownership costs at that date applied on a basis consistent
with that of the preceding year.
Very truly yours,
CARROLL & BRANTLEY ASSOCIATES

Percentages of ownership are not identical to the amounts actually paid owing to an agree-
ment among the parties as to their respective shares of each unit. Other factors were
considered in the amended agreement. Other than testing and other equipment costs which
were not added to the system costs, there were no major additions during 1971-72, pending
completion and acceptance of existing contracts for enlargement of the facilities and out-
fall. Approximately $24,000 in grants were still owing at the end of 1972 on the 1970
project which should be closed in the 1972-73 fiscal year •
