Metropolitan Wastewater Management Commission Overview <br />(ILOTC). Because the bond debt has been fully repaid, property tax assessments and ILOTC payments <br />are no longer being assessed. <br />Interagency Coordination <br />The effectiveness of MWMC and the RWP depends on extensive coordination, especially between <br />Springfield and Eugene staff, who provide ongoing program support. This coordination occurs in several <br />ways. The Springfield ESD/MWMC General Manager and the Eugene Wastewater Division Director <br />coordinate regularly to ensure adequate communication and consistent implementation of policies and <br />practices as appropriate. The Eugene and Springfield Industrial Pretreatment Program supervisors and <br />staff meet regularly to ensure consistent implementation of the Model Industrial Pretreatment Ordinance. <br />Additionally, interagency project teams provide input on and coordination of ongoing MWMC <br />administration issues and ad hoc project needs. <br />Exhibit 1 on the following page reflects the interagency coordination structure supporting the RWP. <br />Special project teams are typically formed to manage large projects such as design and construction of <br />new facilities. These interagency staff teams are formulated to provide appropriate expertise, operational <br />knowledge, project management, and intergovernmental representation. <br />Relationship to Eugene and Springfield Local Sewer Programs <br />The RWP addresses only part of the overall wastewater collection and treatment facilities that serve the <br />Eugene-Springfield metropolitan area. The Cities of Eugene and Springfield both maintain sewer <br />programs that provide for construction and maintenance of local collection systems and pump stations, <br />which discharge to the regional system. Sewer user fees collected by the two cities include both local and <br />RWP rate components. <br />Page 8 DRAFT FY 11-12 BUDGET AND CIP <br />
