    FEDERAL TAX PENALTIE S FOR WATER EFFICIENCY REBATES WATERNOW ALLIANCE & NATIONAL LEAGUE OF CITIES October 14th, 2016 Ali Zaidi, Associate Director for Natural Resources Christy Goldfuss, Managing Director Office of Management and Budget Council on Environmental Quality Jeffrey Zients, Director National Economic Council cc: Jerry Abramson, Director Dr. John Holdren, Director Intergovernmental Affairs Office of Science and Technology Policy Re: Federal Tax Penalties for Local Water Efficiency Rebates Dear Mr. Zaidi, Ms. Goldfuss, & Mr. Zients, As members of the National League of Cities and WaterNow Alliance, we ask for your support in resolving a federal issue of great importance to our communities. Public water utilities comprise over 80% of U.S. municipal water providers. Our ability to provide clean and reliable drinking water supplies faces growing challenges from drought, stormwater runoff, aging infrastructure, rising costs, and more. Consumer rebates and subsidies are among our most cost-effective and efficient tools for increasing water supply resilience, limiting pollutants in waterways, and keeping water affordable for citizens. Interest is growing to substantially increase these subsidies in order to scale water use efficiency and green infrastructure programs and avoid costlier, and less sustainable, alternatives for our utilities. As our water rebate programs have grown, there has been significant uncertainty as to how the IRS will treat these rebates, raising the question as to whether such a program might subject our agencies to penalties for failure to issue 1099s to participating consumers. These programs are limited to repayment for specific out-of-pocket expenses that benefit the community far more than consumers themselves. Requiring the recipients to be taxed on these reimbursements would work as a significant financial penalty, and thus a major disincentive for consumer participation in conservation programs, fundamentally undermining their effectiveness.

CTC's recommendation of our US 101/De La Cruz/Trimble Interchange Improvements in the LPP, will provide significant coordination and delivery of active transportation infrastructure, enhanced safety elements and supportl ocal economic activity. CTC's recommendation of our US 101/SR 25 Interchange Improvements under the TCEP will provide significant freight infrastructure, enhanced safety elements and active transportation infrastructure as well as contribute to economic development activity and goods movement in the Bay Area and Central Coast. Although our two other submittals - Caltrain grade separation project in the City of Mountain View (LPP) and the Santa Clara County US 101 Express Lanes project (SCC) were not recommended at this time, we will continue to advance both projects through final design. Should SB 1 funding become available sooner, we ask for your highest consideration of these two deserving projects. As a transportation authority, we know firsthand how difficult it is to select a limited number of projects from a large pool of project nominations, so we appreciate your consideration. Thanks again for selecting our projects in this round and, we strongly urge the Commission to approve CTC staff's recommendations in all three SB 1 program areas at your December 2020 meeting.
