of. The City bears significant annual costs for these activities due to Solid Waste <br />impacts. The study identified the figure below as the City's cost of the NPDES program <br />that may be reasonably apportioned to the cost of providing Solid Waste services. <br />To reimburse the City for storm drain infrastructure maintenance and cleaning of Solid <br />Waste, Contractor shall pay to the City an NPDES Fee in the amount of one million, ten <br />thousand dollars ($1,010,000) annually as adjusted herein. The NPDES Fee shall be paid <br />in twelve monthly installments over the course of each Rate Year, beginning with the <br />Rate Year starting July 1, 2022. The July 1, 2022 Rate Year monthly payments will be <br />eighty-four thousand, one hundred sixty-six dollars and sixty-seven cents ($84,166.67) <br />due under the terms of Section 3.5. The foregoing notwithstanding, beginning with Rate <br />Year 2 auly 1, 2023) and for all subsequent Rate Years, the amount of the NPDES Fee <br />shall be adjusted annually to reflect the change in the average annual CPI for the twelve <br />(12) month period ending December. If there is no increase in the CPI or if the CPI <br />decreases, the NPDES Fee shall remain unchanged from the previous Rate Year. <br />3.3 Vehicle Impact Fee <br />The City is adopting a vehicle impact fee program. The primary purpose of the vehicle <br />impact fee program is to provide funding for necessary improvements to the City's <br />streets to offset the "wear and tear" impact of heavy vehicle travel thereon. The City <br />commissioned a study to assess the impact heavy vehicles travelling within the City <br />have on City streets. The study concluded that approximately 38.1 % of the "wear and <br />tear" impact is due to refuse trucks and related heavy vehicles travelling on City streets, <br />equivalent to $7,652,310 of impact annually. As such, the study concluded that the costs <br />of maintaining City streets to offset these impacts may be fairly apportioned to the cost <br />of providing Solid Waste services. The amount identified below reflects less than 30% of <br />maximum costs the City could recover according to the study. <br />To reimburse the City for the costs of road maintenance due to the use of Contractor's <br />Solid Waste Collection vehicles on City streets, Contractor shall pay two million, two <br />hundred sixty-six thousand, six hundred and sixty-six dollars ($2,266,666) annually as <br />adjusted herein. The Vehicle Impact Fee shall be paid in twelve monthly installments <br />over the course of each Rate Year, beginning with the Rate Year starting July 1, 2022. <br />The July 1, 2022 Rate Year monthly payments will be one hundred eighty-eight <br />thousand, eight hundred, eighty-eight dollars and eighty-three cents ($188,888.83) due <br />under the terms of Section 3.5. The foregoing notwithstanding, beginning the Rate Year <br />August 17, 2021 37 City of Santa Ana <br />
