Box 17089 9255 Sturdevant Street Pensacola, Florida 32522-7089 ph: 850 476-5110 • fax: 850 494-7346 October 1, 2020 Dear Chairman and Board Members: I am pleased to deliver herewith, the approved Emerald Coast Utilities Authority Capital Improvements Program. This five-year program includes fiscal years 2021 through 2025. Input during the process of formulating this plan came from the Board, the Citizens' Advisory Committee, members of the public, and the ECUA staff. After holding numerous meetings, the staff developed a plan that clearly expresses the capital needs of the ECUA through FY 2025. The FY 2021 CIP budget provides a programmed approach targeting system repairs along with the Sanitary Sewer Overflow/Inflow & Infiltration (SS0/1&1) Consent Order requirements. The staff has continued making a concerted effort to be frugal with expenditures, which helps to keep annual rate increases as small as possible. Almost fifty percent of the CIP budget in the Water/Wastewater System for FY 2021 is comprised of projects addressing the SS0/1&1 Program ($148 million) in response to the FDEP Consent Order (CO), which the ECUA Board approved in May 2012. This will be the ninth year of a 16-year program that we have established to make repairs to the system as required in the CO. With "shovel-ready" projects addressing the CO requirements, it is imperative for the ECUA to initiate construction on the affected lines and systems both methodically and aggressively. Additionally, this plan allows for new infrastructure in the system as well. Shown below is a combined summary, by fund, of the Water & Wastewater System, the Sanitation System, and the Materials Recycling Facility.

Funding in FY 2021 is scheduled to come from existing balances, operating revenues, and the Capital Improvement Fee. There are no plans for new debt issuance for FY 2021. However, the major portions of some projects may need funding in later years from additional debt, which will require annual rate increases at the time of issuance.

Funding in FY 2021 is scheduled to come from the newly authorized capital funding fee, existing balances, and operating revenues. ECUA contracts with the Santa Rosa Board of County Commissioners to provide solid waste collection to certain areas of Santa Rosa County. We have also contracted with the Town of Jay in Santa Rosa County. Both of these contracts expire December 31, 2020 and will not be renewed. Personnel and equipment currently being used in those service areas will return to service in the Escambia service area. Currently, between both Escambia and Santa Rosa County, the ECUA provides residential garbage collection to approximately 115,000 customers. Since 1992, the ECUA has been the exclusive provider of dumpster service on Pensacola Beach. ii Capital Improvements Program FY 2021- FY 2025 October 1, 2020 Page 3 The commercial operation on the mainland includes automated can and roll-off container services. The composting activity grinds the collected yard waste into mulch, mixes it with bio-solids, and then further processes it into high quality compost. The composting activity keeps yard waste out of the landfill, thereby reducing the cost of tipping fees while the sale of the compost material generates a modest source of revenue. Capital requirements for the MRF include storage modifications and annual MRF equipment upgrades at the facility. The storage modifications are necessary to house replacement parts and other equipment needed for timely repair of the equipment. SANITATION SYSTEM FY 2021 - 2025 In OOO's FY FY FY FY FY
