AMENDMENT TO WASTE DISPOSAL AGREEMENT
THIS AMENDMENT TO WASTE DISPOSAL AGREEMENT (the "Amendment ") is made
and dated as of the date indicated on the cover page hereof between the County of Orange, a political
subdivision of the State of California (the "County "), and the City designated on the cover page of this
Amendment, a general law or charter city and political subdivision of the State of California (the
"City ").
RECITALS
The County owns, manages and operates a sanitary landfill system for the disposal of
municipal solid waste generated by the cities and the unincorporated area within the County (the
"Disposal System "). The Disposal System includes three active landfills and four regional household
hazardous waste collection centers.
The Disposal System is used for the disposal of municipal solid waste which is not reused,
recycled or otherwise diverted from landfill disposal, pursuant to the California Integrated Waste
Management Act of 1989 (Division 30 of the California Public Resources Code) (the "Act ").
The County has entered into waste disposal agreements in 2009 (the "Original Waste Disposal
Agreements ") with all of the cities in the County, including the City, as well as certain sanitary districts
located in the County (the "Participating Cities "), pursuant to which the County agreed to provide
disposal capacity for waste generated in or under the control of the Participating Cities, and the
Participating Cities agreed to deliver or cause the delivery of waste generated in or under the control of
the Participating Cities to the Disposal System, as more specifically set forth in, and subject to the
terms and conditions of, the Original Waste Disposal Agreements.
The City has determined that the execution of this Amendment by the City is in the best interest
of the City and will serve the public health, safety and welfare by providing greater disposal rate
stability, more predictable and reliable long -term disposal service, and sound environmental
management.
The County has determined that the execution by the County of this Amendment will serve the
public health, safety and welfare by providing a more stable, predictable and reliable supply of
municipal solid waste and the resulting service payment revenue to the Disposal System, thereby
enabling the County to plan, manage, operate and finance improvements to the Disposal System on a
more prudent and sound long term, businesslike basis consistent with its obligations to the State and
the holders of obligations secured by its Disposal System.
Official action approving this Amendment and determining it to be in the public interest and
authorizing its execution and delivery was duly taken by the County on the County authorization date
indicated on the cover page hereof.
Official action approving this Amendment and determining it to be in the public interest and
authorizing its execution and delivery was duly taken by the City on the City authorization date

It is, therefore, agreed as follows
2016 Amendment to Waste Disposal Agreement
Section 1. Amendment to Original Waste Disposal Agreement
(a) Sections 3.6(C) and 3.6(E) of the Original Waste Disposal Agreement are deleted and
replaced in their entirety, as set forth below:
"(C) Receipt of Imported Acceptable Waste on a Contract Basis. Throughout the Term
hereof, the County shall have the right to enter into a contract or other agreement with any
municipal or private non- County entity for the delivery of Imported Acceptable Waste on
terms and conditions that the County determines to be necessary to ensure and enhance the
viability of the Disposal System for the benefit of the County and the Participating Cities and to
generate Net Import Revenues. The County certifies that in its good faith judgment the contract
or other agreement for the delivery of such waste will not materially and adversely affect the
ability of the County to receive and dispose of Acceptable Waste from the Participating Cities
in accordance with the applicable Disposal Agreements throughout the Term thereof. "
"(E) Application and Use of Revenues From Other Users. (1) Throughout the term
hereof, all revenues received by the County from the disposal of County Acceptable Waste by
the Disposal System, and all revenues received by the County from the disposal of Imported
Acceptable Waste by the Disposal System (including amounts received by the County as a
result of the failure of contract counterparties to deliver minimum required amounts of
Imported Acceptable Waste) , shall be deposited by the County in the County OC Waste &
Recycling Enterprise Fund and shall constitute revenues of the Disposal System. Pursuant to
the County's Plan of Adjustment, the County is entitled to receive net revenues (after payment
of all costs attributable to the acceptance of such Imported Acceptable Waste at the Disposal
System) ( "Net Import Revenues ") from the disposal of Imported Acceptable Waste by the
Disposal System. Costs attributable to the disposal of Imported Acceptable Waste include
deposits to the Environmental Fund, deposits to closure and postclosure reserves, City host
fees (if applicable), operating costs (such as manpower expenditures, equipment, services and
supplies expenditures), state surcharges, and a pro rata share of capital project costs. Net
Import Revenues shall be used for the payment of bankruptcy related obligations until payment
in full of such bankruptcy related obligations required to be paid from such Net Import
Revenues pursuant to the Plan of Adjustment. It is estimated that payment in full of such
bankruptcy related obligations required to be paid from such Net Import Revenues pursuant to
the Plan of Adjustment will occur by the end of Fiscal Year 2017 -18.
(2) Until the County's obligation to apply Net Import Revenues for the payment of
bankruptcy related obligations in accordance with the Plan of Adjustment has been satisfied in
full, Net Import Revenues shall be calculated as provided in Section (3.6)(E)(1). For any
period after the County's obligation to apply Net Import Revenues for the payment of
bankruptcy related obligations in accordance with the Plan of Adjustment has been satisfied in
full, Net Import Revenues shall be calculated as follows:
(i) in Fiscal Year 2017 -18, Net Import Revenues for each ton of Imported Acceptable
Waste received shall be equal to the revenues received for the disposal of such ton of Imported
Acceptable Waste (excluding any newly established per -ton fees or increases to existing
per -ton fees with respect to Imported Acceptable Waste payable to the State, other regulatory
agencies or cities in which facilities in the Disposal System are located) in excess of $17.57 per
ton;
(ii) in Fiscal Year 2018 -19, Net Import Revenues for each ton of Imported Acceptable
Waste received shall be equal to the revenues received for the disposal of such ton of huported
2016 Amendment to Waste Disposal Agreement
Acceptable Waste (excluding any newly established per -ton fees or increases to existing
per -ton fees with respect to Imported Acceptable Waste payable to the State, other regulatory
agencies or cities in which facilities in the Disposal System are located) in excess of $18.01 per
ton;
(iii) in Fiscal Year 2019 -20, Net Import Revenues for each ton of Imported Acceptable
Waste received shall be equal to the revenues received for the disposal of such ton of Imported
Acceptable Waste (excluding any newly established per -ton fees or increases to existing
per -ton fees with respect to Imported. Acceptable Waste payable to the State, other regulatory
agencies or cities in which facilities in the Disposal System are located) in excess in excess of
$18.46 per ton; and
(iv) thereafter, Net Import Revenues shall be equal to 30% of the revenues received by
the County from the disposal of Imported Acceptable Waste (excluding any newly established
per -ton fees or increases to existing per -ton fees with respect to Imported Acceptable Waste
payable to the State, other regulatory agencies or cities in which facilities in the Disposal
System are located).
(3) After the County's obligation to apply Net Import Revenues for the payment of
bankruptcy related obligations in accordance with the Plan of Adjustment has been satisfied in
full (i) 50% of any Net Import Revenues (as calculated pursuant to Section 3.6(E)(2)) shall be
paid to the County General Fund; and (ii) 50 % of such Net Import Revenues shall be paid to the
Participating Cities (and to the County, with respect to the unincorporated area) listed in
Appendix 5 for use for any purpose by the Participating City, including but not limited to state
mandated solid waste programs. Payments of such amounts to the County General Fund and
the Participating Cities shall be made by the County within 90 days after the end of each fiscal
year. The portion of Net Import Revenues specified above payable to the Participating Cities
shall be apportioned in the percentages set forth in Appendix 5.
(4) The percentages set forth in Appendix 5 with respect to each Participating City will
be adjusted at the end of Fiscal Year 2019 -20 to reflect the percentage of actual deliveries of
Acceptable Waste from each Participating City as compared to the total amount of actual
deliveries from all of the Participating Cities during Fiscal Years 2017 -I8, 2018 -19, and
2019 -20. The County shall notify each Participating City of the revised percentages in
Appendix 5 within 120 days after the end of Fiscal Year 2019 -20. The revised percentages will
be used for the allocation of Net Import Revenues generated during Fiscal Year 2020 -21 and
thereafter,
(b) Section 4.2(A)(z) is added to the Original Waste Disposal Agreement (immediately
following Section 4.2(A)(y)) as follows:
"(z) decrease the amount of Net Import Revenues otherwise payable to the County
General Fund and the Participating Cities pursuant to Section 3.6(E)(2) and Section 3.6(E)(3)
and use the amount of such decrease to pay costs of the Disposal System."
