Diego and the participating agencies governs the planning, capacity rights , and cost allocation of
wastewater facilities in the Metropolitan Sewerage System; and

working since 2014 on deal points for the Pure Water program and those deal points have been

WHEREAS, the Amended and Restated Regional Wastewater Disposal Agreement will
be further considered by the Metro Commission and Metro Wastewater JPA and the San Diego
