Basis of Budgetary Accounting
• The basis of accounting refers to when revenues and expenditures or expenses are
recognized in the accounts and reported in the financial statements. The basis of
accounting relates to the timing of the measurements made, regardless of the
measurement focus applied.
• Modified Accrual Basis — All government funds are accounted for using the modified
accrual basis of accounting and a current financial resources measurement focus.
This means that only current assets and current liabilities are generally included on
their balance sheets. Their reported fund balance (net current assets) is considered
a measure of “available spendable resources.” Governmental fund operating
statements present increases (revenues and other financing sources) and decreases
(expenditures and other financing uses) in net current assets.
• Revenues are recorded when measurable and available to finance current operations.
Revenues susceptible to accrual must be collected within 60 days following the end
of the fiscal year and would generally include expenditure reimbursement grants,
certain intergovernmental revenues, and operating transfers and excludes
miscellaneous revenues that are generally not measurable until received. Revenue
from taxes on member towns is considered “measurable” in the year in which the taxes
are levied and are recognized at that time. Interest revenue is susceptible to accrual
since it is measurable and available.
• Sanitary sewer assessments are recognized as revenue in the year in which an
installment becomes due since they are both measurable and available. Annual
installments not yet due are recorded as assets and are offset by deferred revenue.
• Sewer user charges are susceptible to accrual. They become measurable, as the
usage is known and available as billed.
• Expenditures are generally recognized when the related fund liability is incurred.
Exceptions to this general rule include: (1) accumulated unpaid vacation, sick pay,
and other employee amounts are recognized only on the current year, and the long-
term portion is recognized in the government-wide financial statements of the ACFR;
and (2) principal and interest on general long-term debt is recognized when due.
• Accrual Basis — All proprietary fund types are accounted for on a cost of services or
“capital maintenance” measurement focus. This means that all assets and liabilities
(whether current or non-current) associated with their activity are included on their
balance sheets. Their reported fund equity (net total assets) is segregated into
contributed capital and retained earnings components. Proprietary fund type operating
statements present increases (revenues) and decreases (expenses) in net total
assets.
• The proprietary fund types, the Pension and Other Post-Employment Benefits (OPEB)
Trust Funds are accounted for using the accrual basis of accounting and the flow of
economic resources measurement focus. Revenues are recognized when they are
earned and expenses are recognized when they are incurred.

Water Utility - Sale of Water & Other Operating Revenues
Source Description
Sale of Water: is comprised of Customer Service Charge, General Surcharge, and Water Use
Charge. This category classification reflects revenue from the sale of treated water to the
following categories of users: domestic (single and multi-family dwellings and apartments);
commercial (places of business and commerce); industrial (manufacturing and materials handling
firms); and public authorities (municipalities, agencies of the state or federal government, and
municipal housing authorities). In addition, revenue from the sale of treated and untreated water
to other water companies under a series of agreements with the District is also included in this
category.
Other Operating Revenues: consist of Hydrant Maintenance charges associated with privately
and publicly-owned hydrants; Fire Service charges for connections to water mains supplying
water for Private Fire Protection; Penalties on past due water bills; and Cross-
Connections/Backwater Fee for minor or incidental services and materials provided by the District.
Budget Commentary
Operating Revenue totals $100,667,812, an increase of $336,827 or 0.3% above the prior year’s
appropriation. It consists of two components: Sale of Water and Other Operating Revenue.
Sale of Water totals $91,388,900, a decrease of $70,185 or 0.1% below prior year’s appropriation.
The decrease is attributed to the shift in the overall composition of meter sizes related to the
Capital Improvement Surcharge for non-member towns. Overall, consumption is unchanged from
the 2023 assumption of 17.7M CCF.
Other Operating Revenues are $9,278,912, an increase of $407,012 or 4.6% above the prior
year’s appropriation, primarily driven by the increase in Water Billing Penalties and Hydrant
Maintenance Fees.

Sewer - Tax on Member Municipalities
Source Description
The method for taxing member municipalities is set forth in Sections 3-12 and 3-13 of the District
Charter, which grants the District Board, acting on the recommendation of the Board of Finance,
the power to levy a tax upon the towns sufficient to finance the District’s General Fund
expenditures. The tax is divided among the member towns in proportion to the total revenue each
received from property taxation, as averaged over the prior three years.
To coincide with the fiscal year cycle (July 1 – June 30) adhered to by the member towns, the
quarterly tax payments are unbalanced. The amount of the tax due in the first half of 2024 will be
equivalent to 50% of the total 2023 tax levy. This amount (when paid) will be subtracted from the
total 2024 tax levy; the balance is the amount due in the remaining portion of the year.
Budget Commentary
• The Tax on Member Municipalities is unchanged from the levels adopted in the previous year.

Sewer – Sewer User Revenues
Source Description
Sewer User Revenue is derived from Non-Municipal tax-exempt users, High Flow Users, and
High Strength Users charges within the District’s eight-member towns and from all users in non-
member towns who discharge sanitary waste into the MDC’s sewer system. Revenue from non-
municipal tax-exempt properties and from non-member towns is based on either sewer flows
emanating from metered water usage or from flow meters installed at the point of connection into
the MDC’s sewer system. Revenue from high-flow users (12,200 CCF per year or more) is based
on estimated sewer flows from those users. A surcharge is levied on high-flow users whose share
of costs, based on flow, exceeds the portion of their annual property tax payments rendered in
support of the District’s sewer system. Conversely, high-flow users in member towns are eligible
for year-end rebates if their sewer user charge, based on flow, is less than the portion of the
property tax they pay in support of sewer services. Revenue from high-strength users is based
on laboratory results submitted to the District in accordance with section 12 of the General Sewer
Ordinances.
Budget Commentary
The total Sewer User Revenue budget for 2024 is $12,062,066, an increase of $477,166 or 4.1%
above the prior year’s appropriation.
• Primarily driven by an increase in Late Payment Charge and User charges: Tax Exempt.

Sewer - Other Financing Sources
Source Description
Contributions (to) from Other Funds, such as the Hydroelectric Fund emanate from surpluses
derived when project revenues exceed expenditures. Transfers from the Assessable Fund and
Debt Service Fund are derived from the following sources:

supported by District debt.
• Interest income from the investment of idle cash balances in the Debt Service Fund.
• Revenue Surplus funds transferred to the Debt Service Fund as authorized by the District
Board and the Board of Finance.

• Contributions from the Hydroelectric Fund, Internal Service Fund, and Assessable Sewer
Fund are necessary to support sewer operations in 2024.

Employee Benefits
Employee Benefits Budget Summary
Description
The Employee Benefits department comprises all direct costs for employee medical insurance
and other employee benefits. The District provides a comprehensive medical insurance program
for all of its full-time employees, a major element of the fringe benefit package, and for retirees.
The District provides a defined benefit pension program for all full-time employees. The pension
plan requires employees to contribute a specified percentage of their weekly wages (excluding
overtime) to the pension fund, while the District contributes the balance needed to maintain an
actuarially sound fund. In addition, this budget reflects the District's costs for Social Security and
Unemployment Compensation Insurance.
Budget Commentary
The 2024 Employee Benefits budget totals $25,816,868, decreasing by $248,525 or 1.0% below
the prior year’s appropriation. There are no budgeted positions in 2024, unchanged from the prior
year.
• The Medical Services has reduced based on an adjusted contribution to Internal Service
fund for active employees only and a reduction in the Retirement Payout Contribution.
• Pension, OPEB Contribution, Medicare Part B, Social Security, Unemployment

Compensation and Consultant Services have increased based upon the actuarial and
consultant reports and increased fees.

General Insurance
General Insurance Budget Summary
Description
The General Insurance account encompasses the costs of insurance policies that provide
coverage for the District structures and contents (excluding dams). Coverage includes protection
against fire, earthquake, flood, vandalism and damage to specialized equipment. In addition, this
account provides for coverage to insure District vehicles for fire, theft and vandalism while
garaged.
The Liability-Compensation insurance program provides funding for claims by the public for bodily
injury or property damage resulting from District operations and for injury/illness claims by District
employees. In addition, this account supports the cost of specialty insurance coverage for
commissioners and employees, machinery and performance indemnification, and the cost of
service fees from insurance brokers, consultants, and providers of technical/specialized support.
The Self-Insurance program was initiated in 1987, at which time the District began self-insuring
workers' compensation claims. Starting in 1988, the program was expanded to include the
property and liability areas. This account provides a contribution to the District Self-Insurance
Fund for payments of claims anticipated during the coming year that fall within self-insured
retention levels.
Budget Commentary
The General Insurance budget for 2024 totals $2,446,236, which is $216,499 or 9.7% above the
prior year’s appropriation insurance policies including deductibles and self-insurance funding
requirements.
• General Insurance, General Property, Theft Liability, Fiduciary Liability, Auto Liability,
Umbrella Liability, Workers Compensation Excess Coverage, Pollution Liability Insurance
and Flood Insurance have increased based upon new quotes provided by consultants,
offset by a decrease in Police Liability Insurance, Public Liability, Fidelity Bond,
Commissioner Accident Insurance and Cyber Insurance.

Summary
Source Profile
Revenue in support of hydroelectric expenditures is derived from: the sale of power produced at
the District’s Goodwin and West Branch (Colebrook) Hydroelectric power facilities; interest earned
from the investment of available cash; surplus funds (if available) designated to support the
expenditure budget and other miscellaneous nonrecurring revenue consisting of capacity revenue
for Goodwin and West Branch. In 2020 The District ceased operating the West Branch
Hydroelectric Power Facility and no longer generates revenue from the facility.

Budget
Capital Budget
Summary
Overview
The MDC's capital expenditures budget is based upon a comprehensive asset management program
for wastewater, water, combined, and hydroelectric infrastructure. The program's objective is to en-
sure the continued safety and efficiency of the District's assets, as well as maintain and improve the
water mains, sewers, pumping stations, treatment facilities, buildings, and equipment that comprise
the Districts Water Distribution and Wastewater Collection Systems. Asset management programs
have been developed to maximize the effectiveness and useful life of our facilities.
Funding Sources
The District’s 2024 capital expenditures budget is divided into 3 categories: Capital Improvement
Program (CIP), Clean Water Program, and the Integrated Plan. The MDC will pursue funding for
projects, as follows:
1. Capital Improvement Program (CIP)

Wastewater
Purpose: Major projects provide significant improvements and modernization to MDC's wastewater
collection system infrastructure and water pollution control facilities.
Funding Sources: Wastewater projects are funded by General Obligation Bonds and DEEP grants
and loans. Wastewater General Obligation Bonds and DEEP loans are paid by taxes levied upon
the Member Municipalities (Ad Valorem).
Water
Purpose: Major projects are targeting 10 miles of new and replacement water main installations
along with water treatment facilities upgrades and improvements.
Funding Sources: Water projects are funded by General Obligation Bonds and DPH grants and
loans. Water General Obligation bonds and DPH loans are paid by water customers through the
approved water rates.
2. Clean Water Program

Purpose: The projects fund programs to control combined sewer overflows, eliminate structural
sanitary sewer overflows and reduce nitrogen discharges to the Connecticut River. These programs
are being implemented pursuant to a Consent Order with the Connecticut Department of Energy
and Environment Protection, a Consent Decree with the United States Environmental Protection
Agency, and the District’s discharge permit for nitrogen.
Funding Sources: Clean Water Program projects are funded by the Clean Water Project Charge
(CWPC) funds held in the Rate Stabilization fund, DEEP, grants and loans. However, revenue bonds
can be issued, and their debt service paid for with CWPC funds.
Capital Budget
Summary
3. Integrated Plan
Purpose: The projects will fund improvements to the MDC's wastewater collection system infra-
structure and water pollution control facilities, as required to comply with the 2006 United States
Environmental Protection Agency (USEPA) Consent Decree, and 2022 CT DEEP Consent Order.
These projects are in accordance with the MDC’s 2018 CSO Long Term Control Plan/Integrated
Plan (LTCP/IP), and subsequent supplementary documents submitted to CT DEEP and approved
through their Consent Order #COWRMU22002.
Funding Sources: Integrated Plan projects are funded by the Clean Water Project Charge (CWPC)
funds held in the Rate Stabilization fund, DEEP, grants and loans; as well as grants authorized by
the by the United States EPA. However, revenue bonds can be issued, and their debt service paid
for with CWPC funds.
Capital Budget
Summary
Debt Administration Policy
Capital appropriations require approval by a two-thirds vote of the entire District Board and by a
majority of the electors of the District at a referendum with the following exceptions:
1. Capital appropriations not exceeding $25,829,971 indexed for inflation, excluding those
portions of an appropriation payable from Federal or State grants for any single item
within the capital section of the budget.
2. Appropriations for any reason involving not more than $25,000,000 in any one year for
the purpose of meeting a public emergency threatening the lives, health or property of
citizens of the District.
3. Construction of or leasing headquarters facilities.
4. Any public improvement all or a portion of which is to be paid for by assessments of
benefits or from funds established to pay for waste or water facilities.
With the exception of the two $800,000,000 appropriations, and bond authorizations for the District's
Clean Water Project approved at referenda in November, 2006 and November, 2012, and two sup-
plemental grant appropriation’s totaling $158,800,000, which are expected to be supported by gen-
eral obligation bonds, revenue bonds, and clean water fund obligations payable from the Clean Wa-
ter Project Charge (previously the Special Sewer Service Surcharge), the District has followed a
policy of financing capital expenditures by issuing general obligation bonds secured by unlimited
taxes levied proportionately upon the Member Municipalities comprising the District.
In addition to taxes, certain water charges, sewer user fees, and assessments are available to repay
the general obligation bonds. Sewer bonds are payable from the municipal tax levy on each Member
Municipality and from sewer user charges levied on tax-exempt and high-flow users. General obli-
gation water bonds are paid from water sale revenues. Assessable sewer construction bonds are
secured by liens against assessments on benefited properties. The receipts from assessments are
deposited in a separate fund, and payments for debt service on assessable sewer construction
bonds are made from such fund. Hydroelectric bonds are funded from power sales revenue depos-
ited in a separate fund, and payments of the debt service on the Hydroelectric bonds are made from
said fund.

Summary
Five-Year Capital Improvement Program
The District has undertaken a comprehensive asset management program which involves a system-
atic replacement of water and sewer infrastructure in a proactive manner whereby the District will
continue to maintain and improve its assets to ensure the safe and efficient operation of service. In
addition, it is anticipated that the District will continue to complete projects associated with the Clean
Water Project and continue making progress on projects identified in our Integrated Plan.
The District submitted an Integrated Plan (IP) to CT DEEP as part of its Consent Order required
Combined Sewer Overflow (CSO) Long Term Control Plan (LTCP) Update in December 2018. With
Consent Order COWRMU22002, which supersedes the 2006 Consent Order, the District identified
a number of pf projects to be completed as Phase I in our Integrated Plan and we initiated projects
in 2023. A subsequent change in direction and modified Consent Order to address more projects in
North Hartford occurred mid-2023. New mid-year 2023 appropriations and new 2024 IP appropria-
tions address the new goals of the modified Consent Order. The Five-Year Integrated
Plan has been modified to reflect this direction.

Clean Water Program - Summary
The Clean Water Project Capital Budget

The Clean Water Project report was prepared in anticipation of the passage of the November 7,
2006 $800,000,000 referendum for Clean Water Project. The expenditures planned under this
Clean Water Project Fiscal Year 2007 plan have been authorized by vote of the Board on August
7, 2006. This report describes the capital projects planned for 2007 along with the administrative
and management costs necessary to support their design and construction. Further action on this
budget was not required as the referendum passed.
Clean Water Project Description
Hartford’s original core sewer system is now 150 years old, and was built to serve 15,000 people.
Today the expanded system serves almost 400,000 people. Most sewers in the surrounding com-
munities are 50 years old – many approaching 100 years old.
Combined sewers, found primarily in Hartford, use one pipe for both wastewater and storm water,
and frequently overfill with storm water. When they overflow, they either discharge raw sewage into
waterways, or back up into basements and yards. It is no longer legal to construct Combine Sew-
ers.
Modern sanitary sewers, found in suburbs outside of Hartford, use two separate pipes – one for
wastewater and one for storm water. Because of their age, many sanitary sewer pipes in the area
have developed cracks and breaks, which allow infiltration of rainwater. When sanitary sewers
overfill, they also discharge untreated sewage into our waterways.
Sanitary sewer flow from West Harford, Bloomfield, Windsor, Newington, and Wethersfield flow into
the Hartford sewer system, which overburdens the city’s sewers. This situation “backs up” the sani-
tary sewers causing frequent overflows.
Sanitary Sewers overflow to area’s brooks throughout the region: North and South Branch and
Park River in Hartford; Trout Brook in West Harford; Piper Brook and School House Brook in
Newington; Beaver Brook and Folly Brook in Wethersfield; Goff Brook in Rocky Hill; and, Decker
Brook in Windsor.
Overflows that occur more than 50 times each year- every time it rains more than 0.1 inch- dis-
charge raw sewage that can impact the Connecticut River water quality for 30 miles – to East Had-
dam, CT.
More than 1 billion gallons of untreated wastewater overflows into area streams and waterways an-
nually. In addition, area basements and streets get flooded with raw sewage.
The Clean Water Project utilizes several abatement approaches including: separation of combined
sewers in order to remove storm water flows from the sewers; construction of sewage storage sys-
tems to prevent overflows during storm events; and additional pipe conveyance and treatment ca-
pacity. It will require a construction program of at least 15 years.
Current estimates put the project cost at an average of $110 million per year, expended over 15
years, totaling $1.6 billion plus future inflation.
