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.

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 • Comments attached are an integral part of these statements. -5- -Ill ----.. ------• .. • ---• -• -• --.. 11111 -• ---.. -.. -..
