I-1.Allocate project costs to facility process components (e.g., primary treatment, secondary <br /> <br />treatment). <br />I-2.Allocate costs by components to system capacity parameters (e.g., average flow, peak <br /> <br />flow). <br />I-3.Allocate project costs to type (capacity improvement, performance upgrade, or <br /> <br />rehabilitation). <br />I-4.Allocate costs to user type (existing customers or projected growth). <br /> <br /> <br />The project cost allocation methodology provides an equitable basis for determining the <br />projects or portions of projects that are related to growth capacity needs and are, thereby, <br />included in the improvement fee portion of the SDC calculation. The methodology is not <br />tied to a specific list of projects intended to be funded by SDCs (20-year project list), but is <br />intended to provide a consistent framework for allocation of future projects to growth. <br />Each step of the methodology is described below. The general allocation process is also <br />presented graphically in Figure 3. <br />FIGURE 3—PROJECT COST ALLCOATION <br />20-Year Project List <br /> <br />Allocate to Process Components <br />STEP I-1 <br />STEP I-2 <br /> Allocate to System Capacity Parameters <br /> Avg.
